About this place Alerta Pub

Alerta Pub is a rock pub on Olgunlar street in Kavaklıdere, the Çankaya district area that has much of central Ankara's nightlife. It is a mainstream bar with a mixed crowd, listed as gay-friendly rather than gay. Expect beer, rock music and live bands on some nights. Reviews average 4.0 from about 600 people. Turkey's political climate toward LGBTQ people has hardened, and Pride events in Ankara are banned. Mixed bars like this are relatively relaxed, but keep a low profile in public. Check the pub's website or social media for current hours and gigs.

The staff look at dissatisfied customers as if to say, "Why did you even come here?" If you leave your table for a moment after ordering a drink, they quickly clear it away without you noticing, just to get you to buy more. I experienced this twice; it's impossible to tell who's doing what to whom.

We went to watch the Galatasaray-Göztepe match. As soon as we entered, we were startled by the uncomfortable chairs and hesitated before sitting down. The prices were unnecessarily expensive. We went to watch the match, but the sound quality was extremely poor. The staff also tried to be unnecessarily friendly. I absolutely do not recommend it; it was a very bad choice for watching a match.

We came to watch the derby match, it's a very nice and pleasant atmosphere. The prices are reasonable, they don't charge extra for the broadcast, there's a spending requirement but it's also a reasonable amount. It's become my favorite place that shows Bein Sports. You can come with your friends, spouse, or loved ones with peace of mind. It's a clean, smoke-free environment.
