Najat from Beirut

About me I am a graphic designer and freelancer, passionate about art in general. I grew up drawing and painting and it always has been my way of expression. I love music - you'll never catch me without earphones in my ears.

Cantina Sociale Beirut

A wine shop and café concept

"Cantina Sociale is a wine and coffee shop concept located in Beirut. If you’re a fan of wine and chill, modern spaces then you need to hit it up..."

If you’re a fan of wine and cozy, chill, modern spaces then you need to hit up this place. Cantina Sociale is a wine and coffee shop concept located in Ashrafieh.

This is a great place for a quick brunch with friends or to just enjoy a chill evening and a glass of wine. It's also a great working space to open discussions and enjoy being cozy while productive. Promoting the education of wine, they own a wide selection, varying from local to foreign. The place is self-service with an all healthy menu, so the food is very tasty and fresh. You can also purchase your wine by the bottle or enjoy your bottle/glass in-store.

I used to hit up this place every couple of weeks after university classes for a quick brunch or for a chill night of studying with friends. The environment is very calm, fresh and cozy, so if you’re craving a quick bite with a good old glass of wine, this is certainly the place to go!
