Forum İstanbul — Varied Shopping beside Kocatepe Metro

About

Forum İstanbul is useful for a varied shopping list: clothing, things for the home and a meal break can fit into one visit. Group your shopping by floor instead of retracing the same route. The metro connection is also helpful when planning the return journey. Selected stores and official floors: Level B1: Armağan Oyuncak and Linens. Ground Floor: adL, Altınbaş, Arçelik, Atasun Optik, Bella Maison, Carrefour, Casper Excalibur and IKEA. Floor 1: Adidas, Bershka, Lego Store, Levi’s and the other IKEA level. Floor 2: Arby’s and Tavuk Dünyası. These 16 brands appear in 17 floor entries: IKEA is one multi-level tenant, not two separate brands. Unit numbers and stock have not been verified; this selection does not replace the live mall directory. Facilities and budget: the official services list includes Floor 1 information and stroller services, baby-care rooms, family and accessible toilets, lockers, Wi-Fi, wheelchairs, prayer rooms, parking, valet and vehicle charging. A listed service is not necessarily free or always available; ask about terms and prices. Cinema, entertainment, bowling, meals and purchases are separately charged. An IKEA-facade photograph identifies that tenant within the complex, rather than the entire mall building. Plan and route: published general hours are 10:00–22:00 daily; shops, cinema, holidays and events may differ. The address is Kocatepe Mahallesi, Paşa Caddesi, Bayrampaşa. The operator describes a direct connection from Kocatepe station on M1A and M1B; check current exits and service. Ask each retailer about tax-refund eligibility and documents; a universal refund is not promised. Official sources were checked on 18 October 2026 without a field visit or entrance inspection. The map pin is an approximate mall-building location. Contact: +90 212 443 13 50.
