"Hidden Garden" is both hidden and a garden. Turn right from Şair Nedim onto Köşeli and there is an ironmonger staring you in the face. The cafe is opposite, but you won't see the cute garden 'til you've gone straight through.
8 lira basic breakfast included the usual stuff - nice cherry jam and cheeses. The place is clean and cheerful. Waiter was quick, if a bit nothing-doing. The menu is extensive to say the least.

The garden goes quite far back and some men drinking tea observed me from there while they kibbitzed about who knows what. There are a few stone thingies scattered around and the ubiquitous grannies hanging laundry out from above in the adjoining apartments. Very charming and makes a change from the hyperactivity of the places around the hamam. Would have been even better if they'd had wi-fi.
Didn't see any cats, but I'd wager they are around there somewhere.
