Candyfornia Cafe Beirut
Your unicorn coffee shop!
Welcome to Candyfornia Café for all unicorn and creativity lovers! This café is quite hidden, since it is located on the first floor of the blue building in Monot, Achrafieh. I found this café very unique due to its décor design, cakes and smoothies.
It is the first "Kawaii-style" coffee shop that gives off the Los Angeles "LA" vibes while boosting a "candy-colored" design all over. The co-founder actually told me himself that he created this idea out of his love for LA.
If you are a creative person that is into unique spots or a unicorn gangsta that loves smoothies and lattes, this is definitely your spot! Not only will you be spoilt with smoothies and lattes but also with freshly made cakes, cupcakes, sandwiches, and healthy salads. Not to forget the chill zone that makes you feel like you are in another surreal world.
Did I forget to mention that they even have a pink pool inside the café? Of course it is empty and just there for design but it is pretty cool!

What makes the chicken sandwiches different at Zaghal's is that they're wrapped in a "Marqouq bread" which was not popular in Beirut back in the 60s...

Raseef Beirut – Cozy, Homey, Beautiful
One of my favorite places in Hamra is Raseef Beirut, originally a small sidewalk restaurant and pub – hence the name: “Raseef”, which translates to “sidewalk".

Grand Meshmosh – Lowkey spot to chill
Very charming in a very simple manner - nothing too extravagant, yet very cozy. I love that Grand Meshmosh is never too loud or too crowded, but just perfect.
