Lennon Beirut

Give peace a chance

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. I also love reading and writing: basically, anything that can inspire me and help me escape into my creative head and thoughts is what I look for. Why Beiru...
""Lennon" in Beirut is a colorful, chill, hippie place that will certainly catch your eye. You can't just order a single drink here..."

If you call to ask where am I every Wednesday night, then you’ll surely find me at Lennon’s with a group of friends.

Located a corner away from Badaro’s buzzing main street, this colorful hippie place will certainly catch your eye. When you first enter the space, you will see a glowing “Give peace a chance” sign, giving you all the hippie John Lennon vibes. The staff is so friendly on top of the positive energy of people around, and the best thing is that they have several happy hour deals.

Their drinks are amazing; they're known for their colorful mixes, especially the gin-based ones, so don’t you dare think that you’ll be ordering only one drink, cause you’re going to end up with a second and third every time. It’s not just about their food and drinks or the chill music always playing in the background - you can also grab a board game and challenge your friends for the night.

Their peaceful, happy, hippie aesthetic will for sure keep you coming back, so head on there with your group of friends and enjoy a chill night out!
