What to do in Beirut on Sunday + weekday nights? Drinks / people watching / maybe dancing
Hey everyone! Visiting Lebanon and I’m in Beirut for another week. Trying to figure out what the nightlife scene looks like on Sunday and weekday nights, especially tonight (Sunday).
Not necessarily looking for a huge club (but wouldn’t say no if there’s an option that fits the bill). Ideally somewhere I can grab a few drinks, people watch, good music/atmosphere, and if the night turns into some dancing, even better. Bonus points if good for solo!
So far I’ve done MALT Gallery on Friday and really enjoyed it. Also went to a random pub around Gemmayzeh, which was just okay. It was extremely cramped and the music was so loud that you couldn’t really talk, which isn’t really my thing.
I’m 32 and looking for somewhere lively/social without necessarily being packed shoulder-to-shoulder in a tiny bar.
Anywhere in Beirut is fine — Gemmayzeh, Mar Mikhael, Badaro, Hamra, Downtown, etc. Happy to Uber/taxi wherever.
Where would you go on a Sunday night? And are there particular places/nights that are good Monday–Thursday?
Would love some recommendations from people who actually go out here!
