Guler Tatlihanesi in Ayvalik is a renowned pastry shop that offers a variety of traditional cookies and sweets. Located in the Black Sea region, this establishment is known for its unique treats such as gum-mastic and curd cheese cookies.
I liked the Peynir Tatlısı very much. Distinct flavor made by quality ingredients. Also not too sweet. We took away some cookies, too. They were so tasty. You place your order at the cashier, and wait to get your order. Then, you can be seated outside if you can find an empty table. It’s usually crowded. Overall score 4.2/5 for a Bakery

The şekerpare is absolutely amazing - I've never had better. The mulberry ice cream and mastic ice cream are fantastic - with both, it feels like you're eating the actual fruit itself. The prices are very reasonable. I was about to have a billing error, but the owner stepped in before me and fixed it right away. There's usually a line at the door, but you can get in without waiting too long. If you've come this far, definitely give it a try - you won't regret it.

Definitely get the almond cookies, our Turkish friends brought us here and told us that it’s the most famous bakery around here. The almond cookies tastes like meringue and almond cookie had a baby. Delicious!

This conditory has been here on the main shopping street for as long as I can remember. It is a must to sit outside and have one of their delicious cakes, puddings or other of their creations. And watch people pass by.

A small patisserie with plenty of fresh dessert options. It's located on the busiest street in Ayvalık, which is closed to traffic. There are paid parking options nearby. The patisserie has a few tables where you can enjoy the desserts with tea or coffee. It’s usually very crowded, self-service, and a cute little establishment.

Poor quality desserts, lacking flavour. The employees are rude and it’s seriously overpriced, paid 500 lira for two small desserts. An absolute joke avoid this place.

I always revisit this dessert place for the Lor dessert every time I'm in Ayvalık. Pairs well with black mulberry ice cream.

Great place with lots of selections. My favorites are acibadem ( almond) cookies and dry almond baklava. Their lor (cheese) dessert is also nice but this time to time you can end up having uncooked ones.

(Translated by Google) We were here for breakfast. The breakfast is very rich and freshly prepared. It tastes very good. The Çay also tastes good here, that's important to us. We are used to Mevlana from Germany. That's why the Çay in Turkey is often bitter for us. Here it tastes just right. The service is very friendly and is actually not afraid of our Goldie. This is actually quite rare in Turkey. We always enjoy coming here. (Original) Wir waren zum Frühstücken hier. Das Frühstück ist sehr reichhaltige und wird frisch zubereitet. Es schmeckt sehr gut. Auch der Çay schmeckt hier gut, das ist für uns wichtig. Wir sind aus Deutschland Mevlana gewöhnt. Daher ist der Çay in der Türkei für uns oft bitter.Hier schmeckt er genau richtig.

Artizan Bakkal is a delightful gem that promises an unforgettable culinary experience. Nestled in the charming courtyard of the Macaron Mansion, it offers a breakfast spread that many have hailed as one of the most comprehensive they've ever enjoyed. The atmosphere is serene, with birds chirping around you while you savor their delicious bread—especially recommended is their egg bread. The coffee served here also adds to the overall satisfaction.
Amazing breakfast! Quality ingredients with a huge range if non-gmo pastries.

(Translated by Google) When you go to the location shown, there is no such place. There is a high probability that it is closed. If this is the case, they need to remove the location because it is really annoying to park the car too far in this heat and walk all the way here and not be able to find such a place, so I'm sorry. (Original) Gösterilen konuma gidildiğinde böyle bir mekan yok kapatılmış olma ihtimalim yüksek eğer böyleyse konumu kaldırmaları gerekiyor çünkü bu sıcakta arabayı çok ileriye park Edip buraya kadar yürüyüp de böyle bir mekanı bulamamak gerçekten sinir bozucu o yüzden üzüldüm

(Translated by Google) I can give it a score between 4 and 5. Their bread is really delicious. You should definitely try the egg bread. The coffee is also quite satisfying and the place is perfect. You can have breakfast among the chirping of birds. There might just be a little more choice on the menu, since we didn't eat much, we didn't choose the mixed breakfast. It would have been nicer if there was a little more variety. But overall, you should definitely come here and taste the bread. (Original) Tam 4 ile 5 arasında bir puan verebilirim. Ekmekleri gerçekten çok lezzetli. Yumurtalı ekmeğini kesinlikle denemelisiniz. Kahvesi de oldukça tatmin edici, mekan zaten kusursuz. Kuş cıvıltıları arasında kahvaltı yapabilirsiniz. Sadece menüde biraz daha fazla seçenek olabilir çünkü biz çok fazla yemediğimiz için serpme kahvaltı tercih etmedik biraz daha çeşit olsa çok daha hoş olurdu. Ama genel itibari ile buraya gelip kesinlikle ekmeği tatmalısınız.

(Translated by Google) I don't know exactly what kind of partnership they have, but here you go to the courtyard of the Macaron Mansion and the open buffet breakfast is served there. I can say that it was one of the most complete breakfasts I have ever eaten. Besides the jams offered, even the sherbets were natural and sugar-free. The environment was very nice and the employees were very attentive and helpful. However, as we were leaving the Artizan Grocery store, unfortunately we were treated badly by a middle-aged and sullen lady. We told a waiter friend from Macaron Mansion that we would like to buy 1-2 pieces of cake left over from our breakfast, which could not be served to anyone else, as a package if they were going to be thrown away. The waiter friend said that if we went towards the exit with the plate, we could take a package from there and put it away. When we said this, the lady at the door said that they actually did not allow this. When we explained our intention, he mumbled that it was given to dogs, but unfortunately he did not seem convincing. He didn't want to give me a paper bag. He compared us to tourists who have breakfast in half-board hotels and spend the afternoon with what they have in their pockets. On top of that, he asked us to take the plate we brought and leave it on our table. Unfortunately, such arrogance spoiled our joy. Of course, we left without buying anything. No matter what, a person who paid 40 TL per person for breakfast should not be treated as a thief or a freeloader. If leftovers are given to stray animals, this must be stated somewhere. We just wanted to avoid waste. Still, thank you for the nice breakfast. (Original) Nasıl bir ortaklıkları var tam olarak bilemedim fakat burada Macaron Konağı'nın avlusuna çıkılıyor ve açık büfe kahvaltı burada veriliyor. Yediğim en eksiksiz kahvaltılardan biri olduğunu söyleyebilirim. Sunulan reçellerin yanında şerbetler bile doğal ve şekersizdi. Ortam çok güzeldi ve çalışanlar çok ilgili ve yardımcıydı. Fakat Artizan Bakkal tarafından çıkarken maalesef orta yaşlı ve suratsız bir bayan tarafından kötü bir muameleye maruz kaldık. Macaron Konağı çalışanlarından bir garson arkadaşa kahvaltımızdan artan ve başkasına sunulamayacak durumda olan 1-2 parça kek eğer çöpe atılacaksa, paket olarak almak istediğimizi söyledik. Garson arkadaş da tabak ile çıkışa doğru gidersek oradan paket alıp koyabileceğimizi bildirdi. Bunu söylediğimizde ise kapıdaki bayan aslında buna izin vermediklerini söyledi. Niyetimizi anlattığımızda ise köpeklere verildiğini ağzında geveledi fakat ne yazık ki inandırıcı gelmedi. Kese kağıdı vermek istemedi. Bizi yarım pansiyon otellerde kahvaltı edip ceplerine doldurdukları ile öğleni de geçiren turistlere benzetti. Üstüne üstlük getirdiğimiz tabağı götürüp masamıza bırakmamızı istedi. Böyle bir küstahlık ne yazık ki neşemizi kaçırmış oldu. Tabi ki hiçbir şey almadan çıktık. Ne olursa olsun kişibaşı 40tl kahvaltı bedeli ödemiş bir insana hırsız ya da beleşçiymiş muamelesi yapılmamalı. Eğer artıklar sokak hayvanlarına veriliyorsa da bu mutlaka biryerlerde belirtilmeli. Biz sadece israftan kaçınmak istemiştik.Yine de her şeye rağmen güzel kahvaltı için teşekkür ediyorum.

(Translated by Google) We were greeted warmly and with a smile, it is a very nicely decorated and beautiful shop. What particularly caught my attention was the winery section, where a small number of but carefully selected regional wine brands were included; Especially Ma'adran Pinot Noir was a wine I really wanted to taste, but I did not have the opportunity to go to the Ma'adra vineyard. Apart from a pleasant conversation, there are also many products available such as bread (no bread on Mondays), olive oils, jams and coffee. We were very pleased to meet you, see you again. (Original) Güleryüzle ve sıcak bir şekilde karşılandık, son derece güzel dekore edilmiş ve güzel bir dükkan. Benim özellikle ilgimi çeken şaraphane kısmıydı, az sayıda ama özenle seçilmiş bölge şarap markalarına yer verilmiş; özellikle Ma’adran Pinot Noir tatmayı çok istediğim bir şaraptı, ancak Ma’adra bağevine gitme fırsatım yoktu. Hoş bir sohbet dışında ayrıca ekmekleri (pazartesi günleri ekmek yok), zeytinyağları ve reçelleri, kahveleri gibi bir çok ürün de mevcut. Tanıştığımıza çok memnun kaldık, tekrar görüşmek üzere.

(Translated by Google) I read the reviews before coming to Küçükköy. My daughter ordered the Bosnian pastry and loved it, so we tried the Bosnian manti. It was so delicious, in fact, that even though she doesn't usually eat it, she didn't let us have it after she tried it. 😂Black mulberry juice is popular locally, but I liked the blueberry juice I had here better. The owner was very sweet and polite. By the way, if you eat in the village square, you'll find that the portions are much smaller than what you'll get here. (Original) Küçükköy’e gelmeden önce yorumları inceleyerek geldim, kızım Boşnak böreği söyledi ve çok beğendi biz de Boşnak mantısını denedik lezzeti çok iyiydi hatta kızım normalde yememesine rağmen tadına bakınca bize bırakmadı 😂içecek olarak yörede karadut suyu meşhur ama ben burada içtiğim yaban mersini suyunun tadını daha çok beğendim.

We came to learn about this place because Çağla was called over to help us next door as we were rug shopping. She speaks perfect English, and since our Turkish is still not perfect, she came over and helped out; she was so lovely, helpful, and kind… that should tell you something already about her kindness and hospitality. After we finished buying our rug; Çağla invited us next door to their patisserie. She had already been so kind to us, but now that we were at her place, she and her husband Erdoğan really went above and beyond in making our visit amazing. They tended to us hand and foot, and provided exceptional service; but the winner of the night was their baklava cheesecake. Erdoğan is a patisserie chef, and makes some amazing pastries. The perfect mix of crispy beautifully laminated patisserie dough, pistachios, and creamy cheesecake in the middle, made this one of the best cheesecakes my wife and I have had in our travels. Fast forward a couple weeks, and we had some friends visiting from America, and we simply had to share this amazing cheesecake with them, so we contacted Çağla, to ask if we could buy an entire cheesecake to feed all of us. She quickly replied and made one available for us to pick up around 6pm that same evening (If that’s not service, then I don’t know what is!) Again, it was absolutely delicious and my family loved it so much, they’re talking about ordering another already. I can go on and on about Kurkubinya, but I’ll leave it at this. Please go in, please support local little shops like this. Please go in and enjoy the amazing hospitality of the local Turkish community, you won’t be disappointed.

We found this place by accident trying to escape the brutal mid-day heat in Ayvalik and I am very very happy we did. The owners are wonderful, warm, and kind people, and their pastries are some of the best I have ever tasted in my life. I will be thinking of the melon ice cream I tried until I make my way back to Ayvalik. To the owners: Thank you for your hospitality, the wonderful service, and the delicious sweets you served us, you'll be the first place we visit next time we're in Ayvalik ❤️

The baklava cheesecake was the best! Creamy and the pasty is very crisp. Not too sweet. Simply delicious! They owners are husband and wife team. They are so friendly. The husband makes the cakes and is very passionate about it. You will not be disappointed. I will be coming back again.

The cappuccino doesnt taste good, the past was ok. For a cake and a cappuccino they charged me 240 tl. Yesterday i paied the same in another cafe that was tasting amazing and a very better place for 85 tl. Search well and avoid this place. 240 tl pasta ve 1 tane cappucino, ayne çök kötü cappuccino, pasta orta. Gelme buruya!

(Translated by Google) After a busy and tiring day exploring Ayvalık's streets, houses, and historical sites, we stopped by Kurkubinya Bakery and Pastry Cafe, which we saw from afar, to unwind. From the very first moment, you sense you've made a great choice. They prepare their cakes and delicious delicacies with great care and attention to detail. I felt with all my heart that they've learned pastry making so you can savor the most exquisite and surprising flavors. I felt that they've learned pastry making so you can reward yourself with unforgettable flavors. A wonderful pastry cafe that offers immediate access to flavors you can find in luxurious venues, by navigating long roads and opening many doors. The cake we ate and the lemonade we sipped melted away all our weariness. A wonderful family-run business. They're so special. Their welcome, their service, their presentation, everything is meticulous. A wonderful respite on your miraculous journey called life. A wonderful place to continue your journey with renewed vigor and enjoy it. I thank them with all my heart. I'm so glad you exist, Kurkubinya Bakery and Pastry Cafe.

İlk andan itibaren çok iyi bir seçim ve tercih yaptığınızı hissediyorsunuz. Pasta ve harika lezzetlerini, kendileri, büyük bir özen ve titizlik ile sunuyorlar. Sizin, kendinizi en mükemmel ve şaşırtan lezzetleri tatmanız için Pastacılığı öğrendiklerini, Unutulmaz lezzetler ile kendinizi ödüllendirmek için pastacılığı öğrendiklerini Tüm kalbimde hissettim. Lüks mekanlarda, uzun yolları aşarak, pek çok kapıları açarak ulaşabileceğiniz lezzetlere hemen ulaşmanızı sağlayan harika bir pasta kafe. Yediğimiz pasta ve yudumladığımız limonata ile tüm yorgunluğumuzu üzerimizden uzaklaştı. Harika bir aile işletmesi. Çok özeller. Sizi karşılamaları, servis açmaları, sunumları her şeyi ile özenli. Yaşam denen mucize yolculuğunuzda harika bir mola yeri. Yolculuğunuza daha güçlü devam etmeniz ve yolculuğunuzdan keyif almanız için harika bir mola yeri. Kendilerine tüm kalbimle teşekkür ediyorum.

(Translated by Google) We came up with the idea of surprising our friend during our Izmir-Ayvalık trip in the last half hour of our trip. We found this place through a Google search, called them, and they said they didn't have a cake. When they asked, "How long will you need it?", we said we had a maximum of 1 hour to go, and they prepared this cake for us. 🤗 They really did create wonders in such a short time. 🤩 Thank you for your efforts. 🥳🥰 (Original) İzmir-Ayvalık yolculuğumuzda arkadaşımıza sürpriz yapma fikri yolculuğunuzun son yarım saatinde aklımıza geldi.. google dan arama sonucu bu yeri bulduk, telefonla aradık ve elinde pasta olmadığını söyledi. ‘Ne zamana lazım?’ diye sorduğunda maksimum yatım saatlik yolumuz kaldı dedik ve bize bu pastayı hazırladılar🤗 gerçekten kısa sürede harikalar yarattılar🤩 teşekkürler emeklerinize 🥳🥰
