We would recommend the sailor boat as it is the best all round. Ask for Tyson outside the Parkim palace hotel he will give you all the details. An all round great day with lots of entertainment well worth the money.
The Corner Pub - This a great place where you can feel right at home, the staff are friendly and the prices are cheap. We have enjoyed many nights here and would recommend it to all our friends.

Siesta Soccer Bar - This is the best bar in turkey. It is great if you are staying at the siesta hotel, because it is right next door. Also, it has cheap drinks. The main bit about this bar are all the staff! Ilyas my love ;), Memet, Jayjay and the new lovely young smiler who works behind the bar. These guys are very good at English and will do anything they can to make your night extra special. When the football I on, this is the place to be, there are football shirts covering the roof of the bar that people have left there. There are big screens for you to watch the game on. This is a good bar to go before bar street, but also it is a great bar to sit in all night because it is sooo fun. One of the good things about the bar is that it is one of the bars that plus different music every night. Some of the bars are very annoying because they place the same music every night. The siesta bar doesnt do food, but it does take out from other places. There is a fantastic restaurant across the road called china town that does every type of food going and is very nice. This is where they order from mostly. I went to this bar every night for a whole week. Then we returned 2 months later and spent every day and every night in the bar. Every1 should go to this bar to make their holiday extra special because of the staff!!! :P

Smiley's Bar And Restaurant - So good, we went every single night! A great, fun bar. Where the staff entertain you, and cater for your every need, and it's always the staff who make or break a bar, it's wonderfull if you enjoy that Turkish bar experience, plenty of music, dancing and entertainment. Also, worth mentioning is the care we we're given in there, as two women on their own in Turkey, my friend and I were a little anxious, but the staff in Smiley's made sure we were looked after, and on a few occasions helped us avoid hassle (always from european men!) A very family friendly bar too! I would advise any-one going to Gumbet to check it out, and I will definately be going back again.
Casablanca - Great food, the steak melts in your mouth. Good value, small children eat free. The staff very friendly and helpful, especially Falcon.
Millennium Restaurant/bar - Very friendly people and very good food. We went several times to eat in this restaurant and every time it was very good and cheap. We think it's the best.
Saray Zetas - My wife almost swallowed a metal fibre that was in her meal here and the waiters didn't seem to give a toss. After having to argue the point for ages they finally gave us 50% off the price of her meal. Not happy.. she could have cut her insides open if she'd swallowed it! Zetas on the beach is a different experience altogether.. friendly service and fantastic food.. we had the fajitas and beef in oyster sauce.. both meals were absolutely stunning!
The Golden Knife - On the beach in the middle of the bay... wifey had chefs special steak.. it was stuffed with mushrooms and cheese and was awesome.. tender, juicy.. a proper matrix steak! I had grilled chicken which was also extremely good.. lovely bread to start but not quite as good as the bread and garlic butter at Zetas on the beach
Annalivia - Just behind the Mystery bar/club at the top of bar street. Beautiful food.. too much for me to eat but really loved it here. The Owner is lovely too and gave us a voucher for a free drink in Murphys Bar next door.. Cheers!
Corner Fun Pub - This is the best place to go if you want good entertainment, the lads in here are so much fun to be around, they get you to dance all the time and have a really good laugh, itâs really cheap, and this place made are holiday as we looked forward to going out all the time. Wish was still there, we canât wait to go back next year.
Mr Horrible Bar - Best bar in Gumbet. Friendly staff always make you welcome, any time of day or night. Scottish and Irish music but Mehmet will play anything you ask within reason. Very family friendly great prices. First drink last drink and some in between drinks.
millennium resraurant bar - hmm lovely place in gümbet u shud try ther food...and aspecly barman adam his so hondsome and make lovelly cocktail verry verry friendly and good english...
aloha - just got back from a week in gumbet we used to go to this bar every night for our fish bowls before hitting bar street the staff here are very friendly and such good fun miss you all hopefully see you soon xx
Millennium bar / restaurant Gumbet - Initially very good impression, food was very nice and everyone wants you to be thier friend and tell you that you are a special customer...however you will soon learn that behind the smiles and false friendliness is nothing more than nastiness and money grabing tactics. Check your bills also your sure to find a few extra items on it! The staff, mainly a very poisonous Adam and another of the owners Saalami are very very friendly to begin, but once you dare to eat somewhere else they verbally attack you and generally make life miserable and accuse you of taking customers to other places. Dont get involved with anyone there, as they are encouraged to have girlfriends (of which each staff has many to keep the customers returning and spending) just eat if you must (the old chef has gone now and food not so good) Do not give your contact details out if you should become friends or you will be sent very disgusting and nasty messages as several of us have discovered. My advice, dont bother, lots of other good places to eat, cheaper and without the hassle. Recommend the Red Dragon, The Parrot or Windy Bay - all great, no hassle and good food!
happy pub karaoke bar - met JOSEPH many years ago ı return each year to the best bar ın gumbet try ıt you wıll come ın nıght after nıght ıt also has the largest karaoke selectıon ın gumbet 47 000 songs and the frıendlıest of welcomes
Cheers - A very friendly restaurant/bar where the staff do not try to pull you in with cheap banter. Good food at reasonable prices with nice background music played at a level where you can still talk to friends without having to shout. Mehmet, the owner, speaks good english and goes out of his way to make your evening enjoyable. Visited June 2009.
