Alacati Center
The centre of Alacati’s is full of restaurants, cafes and bespoke boutiques, which all open until late and attract both foreign and Turkish tourists to Cesme.
Alacati’s centre is mainly busy during the evening because of the many venues available, so much so you could eat and drink at a different place every night. However, we do recommend that you make prior reservations for Friday and Saturday evenings in the high season to ensure you get a table, most of which will be placed outside the restaurant.
