    I just don't understand these positive reviews. At least on the evening I attended - which was a birthday dinner for my children - the overall experience of this restaurant was horrible. At first we were seated in the "outside" - which is in fact not outside, but rather a enclosed porch. Within the first couple minutes my children and I were coughing from a visible fog of smoke. We then were reseated inside. 15 mins later our waiter re-appeared and we ordered dinner. A lovely beet paste arrived soon, but the bulk of our food took an hour to materialize. One child even fell asleep. The Musakhan was burnt, the pasta portions were tiny, and one item never came. Hipster charm and Art Deco style can't make up for the miserable service and food from here. Sixty dollars later and we were gone, never to return. Advise sticking with T-Marmabuta.

    Beautiful atmosphere, especially for breakfast. I enjoyed my coffee very much with the beautiful music they played there. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the staff, they could be more welcoming and friendly.

    Quaint relaxing location with a wide selection of natural and organic items. Great place to step out of the hustle of the city to enjoy a meal, coffee, dessert or wine/beer/cocktail. Save time to browse the bookstore. Its small but is packed with a diverse selection of books.

    Cozy little spot tucked in the heart of Hamra. Great place to catch up with friends and enjoy the drink. Their cute little library has a great collection too of art books and literary works.

    One of my favorite spots in town. It's cozy and tucked away in a small alleyway in one of the most popular areas in Beirut, Hamra. Food and drinks are good and it's perfect if you want to work on your laptop for a few hours. They also have a small library you can borrow books from and a photography school and exhibition area on the floor above.
    My favorite time to visit is during winter around Christmas time when they serve mulled wine!

    Extremely loved the place
    Cozy with great ambiance to study or do projects. Very crowded but you'll enjoy having your coffee alone.
    Free Wifi and parking is available but menu is a bit expensive
    Will definitely come back again

    A nice venue to sample good food in a friendly atmosphere and be inspired by the Dar's artsy scene. Suitable for a small to medium group of friends.

    Cozy coffee shop in Hamra. Can be a good place to study or just hang out with friends. They have a really nice bookstore inside and you can order books from there.
    The food is great specially the weekend brunches and regular breakfast!

    Lovely place, yet food is overpriced, and the promptness of service could be improved

    This hidden gem is a place to love. It's a home away from home. It's cozy in winter and colourful in summer. Food is delicious and the music is perfect just to fit you in the mood! Not to forget the friendly staff that always greet you with a smile and know where you usually sit and are very efficient. On top of that *Drum roll please* THEY HAVE THE BEST FISH TACOS. Try them! But be warned. It. Will. Get. Messy. Plus if you're looking for something quick, light and new to try I highly recommend their beetroot thyme dip with pita chips. I promise you won't regret it. I hope And I hope you'll enjoy this place like I did! Cheers! P.S. Sorry for the hazy photo.. Oops.
