When you're walking the wide street of Petro Trad, which has antique shops and the tallest building in Lebanon, you will come across a newly opened store called Pop In Eatery, with its unique interior design and clean ambiance. However, you'd think that it only has sidewalk seats and indoors, when actually a few steps inside the store you'd have a door that says "Want to Escape?", and it would lead you to the most magical thing ever... a beautiful garden with a huge rubber tree shadowing it full of seatings as well!
Away from the ambiance, their coffee is that of specialty coffee with a very high-tech Sanremo espresso machine all the way from Italy! Even their serving cups are special, I've not seen any like them in coffee shops here in Beirut. Make sure you side your drink with their homemade dessert choices, or even try their freshly prepared food items from the menu.
What was a new coffee experience for me was being served my Flat White cup of coffee with espresso shots on the side and the steamed and foamed cup of milk in another cup. You get to mix them both together, which breaks the whole "Latte art" expectation, but the milk was very properly steamed, and the taste of the beans is just so good!
Pop In Eatery & its hidden garden escape is an escape from one street away from a buzzing street.
