PEU, short for Esthetic Joys Embassy, is one of the coziest and most open-hearted places I know in Yerevan. In their own words, it’s “for every citizen of the world” — and that’s exactly how it feels. It is located in a restored house with three floors and a garden. It is a PEU is a space where you can just be you without pressure or judgment.
Whether you want to work in peace, meet new people, play a game of chess or billiards, or just chill with a drink, this place has room for it all. There’s food, good music, comfy corners, and always someone interesting to talk to. On weekend evenings, DJs take over and the vibe turns more energetic.
What I love most about PEU is the atmosphere. It’s warm, open, and welcoming - like a creative community hub. It’s a rare kind of place where you can show up alone and leave with new ideas or new friends.
Great for daytime relaxing or evening drinks with a social twist.
