THE REASON TO GO

A specific stop, for a specific craving.

A lahmacun stop to fit into a Kadıköy walk. One Instagram visitor described ordering two more after enjoying the first round. A Turkish food writer also describes returning for lahmacun and ordering them one at a time so they stay hot; Borsam appears again in a September 2026 Istanbul discussion.

This is an alternative to a longer sit-down lunch, rather than another compulsory meal after Çiya. Choose one as your main food stop, or share a smaller tasting if that suits your appetite. Avoid treating old prices in social captions as today’s menu.

Plan your Borsam stop

Choose the Bahariye branch for this walk

The map on this page points to Serasker Caddesi 78/A. Match the branch name and street before setting off; a saved video may show a different Borsam location. Open the business Instagram profile for branch contacts.

Make lahmacun the order

Lahmacun is the dish highlighted in the visitor accounts linked below. Start with the amount you want to try, then order another fresh if you are still hungry. Ask how spicy it is and whether drinks or extras are charged separately.

Leave room for the rest of Kadıköy

Our suggested sequence is a ferry arrival, a market walk, one main lunch stop and a Moda break. Choose between Borsam and a full Çiya meal according to your appetite; you do not need two lunches to enjoy the neighbourhood.

What to budget

Order by appetite and check the price per lahmacun and drink. We do not have a verified current meal total.

Leave time for it

Allow around 30–45 minutes plus any queue. Order another fresh lahmacun if you want more.

Before you go

The linked map is for Bahariye. Social recommendations do not always identify a branch. Use the branch contact in the business profile for current hours and prices.

Tell the staff about dietary requirements and ask about ingredients before ordering. For a large group, step-free access or a specific table, contact the branch directly.

MAKE A DAY OF IT

Pair it with the neighbourhood.

Walking times are approximate planning estimates, not live directions. Allow extra time for hills, crossings and your actual exit.

Questions before your visit

Which Borsam Taşfırın branch does this guide use?

Bahariye, on Serasker Caddesi 78/A in Kadıköy. Check that exact branch when opening directions or looking up its opening hours.

How much does lahmacun cost at Borsam?

We have not verified a current menu price. Check the branch menu before ordering and total the lahmacun, drinks and any extras separately. Old social-media prices may no longer apply.

Can I see photos of the actual food and restaurant?

Yes. The Instagram section links to the business profile and a visitor’s post. The ferry photograph on this page illustrates reaching Kadıköy; it is not a photograph of Borsam.
