""The Blue Tea House" is the ultimate hidden gem for tea lovers in Beirut! It's a unique concept with rare and organic tea that's not commercialized..."

Welcome to The Blue Tea House! Opened solely in Beirut, the blue house focuses on the philosophy to "bring tea as it should be". This is the ultimate hidden gem for tea lovers!

This is a unique concept of rare and organic tea that is not commercialized. As they say "Like the ancient Phoenicians, we travel the blue seas and explore the world to carefully select the best pure teas and most outstanding blends. And like the phoenix we revive age old traditions by rekindling the refined pleasures of distinctive flavors." 

The Blue Tea House aims to provide its customers with unique mixtures of tea from the organic fields and farms. Some of their teas come with the blend of their own unique tea-aging process in Japan and China. This shows how much respect they have for tea traditions and how they are trying to revive these traditions of different cultures of tea!

When I first experienced the Blue Tea House, it felt like a movie scene that reminded me of the old English aristocracy tradition when the elite women gathered around in their gardens and had their sip of tea the English way.

However, this is not considered a restaurant or cafe, it is a salon of tea tasting or buying and you need to book beforehand in order to have a chance to taste their teas! Many people book a spot there for a date, birthday or any other event!

Salud

Best Mexican in town

"Salud" in Beirut is a happy Mexican bar-restaurant, one of my favorites in town! You have to try their beef burritos together with a pitcher of Margarita!

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...

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.

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".
