Barometre in Hamra has an excellent chilled out cafe vibe, perfect for an evening of relaxed drinking with friends. It’s a spacious and simple venue, with straightforward, but not boring design, that concentrates on making sure that you have a good time, rather than trying to wow you by putting the furniture on the ceiling or making the bar completely out of lego. Barometre has a friendly atmosphere that ingratiates you like one of the family. They serve up a good selection of classic cocktails and if you find yourself feeling a bit peckish then they also have a selection of Lebanese dishes that you can order.
