One of the iconic bars in Mar Mikhael, Lock Stock always has something going on. In the afternoon, it's a wonderfully chilled meeting spot for local flâneurs: its open front and exposed stone brickwork make for a pleasantly airy environment. Later on, the place fills up with hipsters keen to capitalise on the two – count 'em – Happy Hours, and the decent range of cocktails and international beers (not to mention the menu of succulent light bites and main courses). They're a receptive audience for the bi-weekly live sets, generally acoustic, held on Wednesdays and Sundays. There is very little pretension to Lock Stock, something which a fair few bars in the area are guilty of. You can't go wrong with it.
