4.5 / 5.0(424 reviews)
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My wife and I just visited The Barn while we’re here from the States, and we absolutely loved it! The food was incredible — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with that perfect mix of rustic charm and modern comfort. You can tell the team here really cares about every detail, from the service to the ambiance. Definitely one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in Lebanon. Highly recommended. One of the best healthy restaurants I have tried in Beirut. The menu is varied, the prices are reasonable, and the place has a cheerful atmosphere. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Disappointing Experience We were initially drawn to The Barn for its charming vibe in the heart of Gemayzeh Street. However, our excitement quickly turned to disappointment due to several issues. Cleanliness Concerns: We were given cups for water that had a strong, unpleasant odor. Although the staff replaced them with less smelly cups after we brought it to their attention, it raised concerns about the restaurant's attention to cleanliness. Food Quality 1. Chicken Caesar sour dough: My dish was enjoyable, with a good balance of flavors. 2. Steak meal: Unfortunately, my husband's steak meal was a different story. He ate nothing else that day and subsequently suffered from food poisoning, spending the evening and night feeling nauseous and vomiting. Given the unfortunate experience with food poisoning, we would strongly advise against eating steak at The Barn. The cleanliness concerns and severe food poisoning issue overshadowed the restaurant's pleasant atmosphere. We will not be returning to The Barn and would caution others to be mindful of these issues.

This place is my go-to spot in Gemmayzeh. The staff is consistently friendly and super helpful, making me feel right at home. The food is healthy and well-made, and the atmosphere is always relaxed and comfortable. It’s a great place to stop every time I’m in the city.
