9 late night in Gaziantep, editor-picked for food open late at the weekend. Where to eat past midnight on a weekend night. All late night in Gaziantep.
Çelebioğulları Baklava ★ 4.4
sehitkamil · İncili Pınar Mahallesi, Gazi Muhtar Paşa Blv. No:25 D:C, 27090 Şehitkamil/Gaziantep
Hours: Daily 07:00-24:00
Çelebioğulları Baklava keeps its Gazi Muhtar Paşa salon open to midnight, so a late Gaziantep baklava run does not depend on the bazaar counters.
Tip: The salon has proper seating. Order a mixed plate with tea rather than a box to go.
Bayazhan ★ 4.4
sahinbey · Akyol, Atatürk Blv. No:119 D:1, 27010 Şahinbey/Gaziantep
Hours: Daily 09:00-24:00
Bayazhan keeps its caravanserai meyhane in Gaziantep running to midnight with live fasıl, rakı and a küşleme allocation that sells out early.
Tip: Reserve the küşleme when you book. After ten o'clock the grill is usually out of it.
Sakıp Usta Paça Beyran Kebap ★ 4.3
alleben · Alleben, Kemal Köker Cd. No:55 D:53, 27010 Şahinbey/Gaziantep
Hours: Daily 05:30-02:00; Sat and Sun until 03:00
Sakıp Usta keeps beyran and paça going past midnight on Kemal Köker Caddesi, which makes it the Gaziantep answer to a very late-night appetite.
Tip: It is still serving at 02:00, and at 03:00 on Fridays and Saturdays.
Cumba Künefe ★ 4.2
sehitkamil · Pancarlı, Ali Nadi Ünler Blv. 71/A, 27060 Şehitkamil/Gaziantep
Hours: Daily 11:00-02:00
Cumba Künefe runs until two in the morning on Ali Nadi Ünler Bulvarı, serving the oversized Gaziantep künefe trays that families share after dinner.
Tip: Add the ice cream rather than ordering a second tray. The portions are already large.
Erçelebi Kömürde Kadayıf ★ 4.1
sehitkamil · Sarıgüllük, Milli Egemenlik Cd. no.33, 27400 Şehitkamil/Gaziantep
Hours: Daily 11:00-01:00
Erçelebi Kömürde Kadayıf fires kadayıf over charcoal until one in the morning in Sarıgüllük, so nothing here has been sitting on a tray for hours.
Tip: Expect a ten-minute wait. Nothing is pre-made, which is the reason to come.
Künefe Han ★ 4.0
sehitkamil · Pancarlı, 19019. Sk. No:3, 27060 Şehitkamil/Gaziantep
Hours: Daily 09:00-02:00
Künefe Han bakes cheese pastry until two in the morning in Şehitkamil, and Gaziantep treats a late künefe as a second dinner rather than dessert.
Tip: One tray between two. Order it at the table so the cheese is still stretching.
Yeşilçam Kahve Evi ★ 4.0
ibrahimli · Atatürk, Adnan İnanıcı Cd. no:46/a, 27560 Şehitkamil/Gaziantep
Hours: Daily 08:00-01:00
Yeşilçam Kahve Evi runs latest of the İbrahimli cafes, a Gaziantep room of film stills, backgammon and nargile that fills up once dinner ends.
Tip: Upstairs is quieter and less smoky. Ask for it when you arrive rather than later.
Gece Gündüz Bistro ★ 3.9
sahinbey · Bey Sk. Atatürk Blv Öğretmenler Evi Karşısı 27010 Gaziantep
Hours: Daily 14:00-01:00
Gece Gündüz Bistro runs fasıl bands and a cook-your-own grill until one in the morning, the busiest late licensed room in central Gaziantep.
Tip: Book the ocakbaşı tables in advance. They are the only ones where you grill your own.
Brezılıan Coffee Co ★ 3.8
yeditepe · Güneykent, 216 Nolu Cadde No:8/B, 27470 Şahinbey/Gaziantep
Hours: Daily 08:00-24:00
Brezılıan Coffee Co pours espresso until midnight near Gaziantep University, which makes it the late study room for the whole Güneykent district.
Tip: The far room is quieter. Sit there if the smoke from the doorway bothers you.
