Kalei Coffee Co.’s flagship in Beirut’s Mar Mikhael/Rmeil district was once the Coconi House, abandoned in 1984 during the Lebanese civil war. When we entered the garden, we felt at home, offering a quiet escape from the nearby hustle. We preserved the old structure, allowing the space to guide our operations. In September 2016, Kalei’s first coffee house and roastery opened, honoring the past. (Note: Parking available for residents only.)

3 months agoA very chill place, perfect for relaxing. You have the option to sit in the garden, surrounded by adorable and friendly cats, or enjoy the air-conditioned comfort inside. It's an ideal spot to take your work. Their drinks are refreshing and delicious, and the cakes are absolutely delightful. The staff is nice and welcoming. Definitely a place I'll come back to for sure.

4 months agoKalei is a great place to spend whole day under the shadows of trees. You can work remotely, chat with your friends, have breakfast, taste their great coffees and chill. This is the place for all. I love it. Wanna come again.

4 months agoChill place, cozy and relaxing. Nice jazz lounge music in the background. Indoor AC and outdoor and roof are suitable to all. Service is very helpful, welcoming and kind. Tried their seasonal brew cold coffee with orange slice (beautiful addition! And tasy combination!) their lemaonade and lemonade with a twist, everything tasted perfect. Haven't tried their food yet though, next time for sure ! Prices are Ok I guess.

3 months agoA hidden gem, this is a very chill place, with a lot of shade from the trees to protect you from the sun. You can either sit in the garden, surrounded by friendly cats or enjoy the aircon comfort inside. It's an ideal spot to work from and the drinks are refreshing and delicious. There are also different varieties of cakes to choose from 🍰. The staff is nice and welcoming and service is very fast.
