Whether you want to finish up some work on your computer over great coffee or meet with friends over dinner .. Or enjoy a nice glass of wine .. All that you can do in this hip cool place

Búho El

A place combining urban decor and quiet corners where you can either study, have a great cup of coffee or dine. Very interesting menu, prices fair for the quality of food.

Neo Ajaka

Despite the apathetic & otherwise nonchalant attitude of the waiters here (15 mins for a cappuccino ), the calm & endearing atmosphere keeps seducing me back, good for reading & a quick bite

J

Super cute space for study and reading with power outlets and USB charger. White fish and mashed potato is really good. So is the Gin fizz

Sleepless In Beirut .com

Shapely shin and blonde boy galore. Also you may spot some of Beirut's riper, more seasoned men who like youthful company...and probably the Caucasian journalist stereotypes that always hog the table

A lovely place with delicious food but.... a piece of cake for 14.000LL! "Is it rocket science?", a friend asked ;-) My Facebook: my charmed places, Instagram: @mycharmedplaces Read more

Mehmet Giritli

The best coffee house in the city . Service is a little bit slow though. Highly recommend the one on Bliss Street

Alpar Akal

A relaxing place to chill , have a drink or two with wi-fi and refreshing design

Houssam El Eid

It is not correct that the VAT is double charged. The price showing on the menu is the same as on the bill but as per the law it is a must to detail the sub-total and the VAT separately at the end

Erkan Saka

probably the best place for coffee and laptop work or coffee and reading.

Noelle Ghanem

The organic grilled salmon is just perfect ;)

Hind A

Place is big and nice with healthy choice of food and freshly baked cakes ..coffee was ok.

Patrick Collison

Michelle Wiles

Love the ambience and food

Grant Dashwood

nice coffee and cool place to hang out... good wifi friendly vibe .

Abdulaziz Koleilat

Great Hamburger , calm atmosphere , great staff ! Manager was amazing, made everything like we wanted it!!!

Ismail Jaouni

Amazing food and comfortable seats and friendly staff ...

Don Lancaster

There is a certain similarity about the crowd here. Girls with the same jeans straightened hair and little makeup look. Men with just enough stubble, dark clothes and repetitive topics.

Ieva Saudargaitė

For a concept cafe with a library and photos of great minds on its wall, the no chess policy is a thoughtless prohibition.

André Abi Aad

Desserts appear to have been pining there for ages, gave it two chances and blew it twice. I could swear the barista is on a quest to spread diabetes: no sugar please unless instructed! Super $$$ too

J

Perfect spot for a quick business lunch , or a bite at night; don't miss the Seared Tuna Sandwich !

Eileen Khatchadourian

Where are my favorite nice and smiling waiters ? The staff has changed and the new waitresses are not the funniest ...

Racha

The chicken spinach strawberries salad is good, also try the mushroom quiche . Ambiance is pretty chill .

Yasmine H

If you're going to sit outside in the winter, grab the tables by the fire pit .

Julia M

Food is terrible & super overpriced. Every time i order here i get pissed, what a ripoff! Lattes etc are good though, and they have a huge selection. Come for the coffee & chill atmosphere

Nancy M

Un coup-de-foudre kind of place. You can't but fall in love with every detail- Check the terrace . (But yes, overpriced and under serviced).

Bassel Deeb

One of the most lovely places in Lebanon... Great ambiance, staff and drinks.

Talar Demirdjian

I seriously don't know why I keep coming back here, I think it's just a convenient location in Gemmayze, and has good seating, but besides that, they have absurdly priced items & slow as hell service.

Aistė Lehmann

Carrot thyme soup is amazing!

Ieva Saudargaitė

A pretty decent Fish & Chips ; end the unpretentious lunch with a warm and rustic carrot cake .

Wadi Antoun

Burgers are quite good, it's also a really good place to work .

Hovhannes Boyadjian

Try the original burger ! Yumm 10\10

Rabih A.

Everything is so yummy! Make sure you start your meal with the baked chicken rolls !

John Laham

Try anything on the menu, it's almost always bound to be a culinary delight.

Sandy Salloum

They have an inside garden ... Get a table there and relax... Great spot!

Polly Semick

I think I can now safely conclude that no wifi—unstable as it is—& no yummy egg mix can justify these prices. I'll cherish the memories like the lomograph I didn't take because wtf lomos are expensive

Tarek Daouk

Try the seared Tuna sandwich . Fantastic food, friendly staff , and great ambiance !

Sugarpop

The quinoa chips are a must taste!! ????

Ezgi Kilic

Perfect place to stop and rest. It may be hard to notice from outside

Serene Touma

Best orange juice in Beirut! :)

Carine

Reminded me of cafés in Montreal with its backdoor terrace and boutique .

Georges El Hashem

Australian steak delicious

Saša Mutić

Great chill-out, wifi , sofas :)

She

The staff were rather rude and the service not friendly . The location is nice, but you have to pay for Wi-Fi for each device separately. They didn't have half the breakfast menu at 10 in the morning.

Joanne Moussa

Seared tuna ????????????????????????

Mahmoud Zinji

The best place for studying

Anna Issa

You have got to taste the great pancakes urbanista makes ????

Karim Ghazzawi
