16mm Bar & Café Beirut

I’ve been coming here for a while now and it’s honestly become my go-to spot in Beirut. Every time I walk in, I feel at home. The staff are so warm and genuine, they really take care of you and make the whole experience special. The food and drinks are always amazing, but what I love most is the vibe, it’s welcoming, fun, and also feels like such a safe space. You can tell how much love and effort goes into everything they do. For me, this is the best bar in Beirut and I can’t recommend it enough!

I’ve been going to this place since it opened about 2-3 years ago, and it has consistently been one of my favorite spots to unwind. The staff are incredibly friendly and always make you feel welcome, which adds to the overall amazing vibes of the place. The atmosphere is perfect for chilling with friends—the music is at just the right volume, allowing you to have a conversation without shouting. It’s a refreshing change from other venues where the music can be overwhelming. One of the standout features, and something I truly admire, is the thoughtful touch of providing sanitary pads in the women’s restroom. It’s such a simple yet impactful gesture, and it’s the first place I’ve seen in Lebanon show this level of support for women. It really sets them apart and shows how much they care about their guests.

Terrible experience! Arrived at 8:40 pm, ordered a starter and a beer — waited over an hour and a half with no food. Another table got our dish, staff admitted the mistake but did nothing to fix it. No apology, no gesture, and they still asked us to pay for the beer when we left hungry. Unprofessional and disrespectful. Avoid this place at all costs!

16 MM in Gemmayze is a gem! 🍹 The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming – they make you want to come back again and again, the cocktails are amazing, and the basil lemonade is hands down the best we’ve ever had. Great music, great vibes – we can’t wait to go back! 🎶✨

A great place for breakfast, lunch, and late night drinks! The music is so chill and you vibe well enough with it without it overpowering conversation! The food is DE-LI-CIOUS! The drink sublime! Cinema lovers will be obsessed but then again so would muggles! The owner is one of the coolest people in town!
