Hip and informal, this super-popular Lebanese-style drinking den bills itself as a 'hummus & music bar'. Most customers appear content to focus on the alcoholic beverages, but the creamy hummus and other Middle Eastern bites are attention worthy. It can get crowded, but DJs keep the mood bubbling along nicely.
If Beirut is too packed, there may be some room in the attached Kraken Rum Bar, which specialises in rums and seafood.
