Offering chilled-out Middle Eastern vibes, Bar Beirut is easily one of the best bars in Canberra. It's decked out with moody maroon tones, Moroccan-style lampshades and a mosaic-detailed bar, boasting a relaxed yet intimate atmosphere. Head over for casual drinks with mates and cosy date nights.

And when it comes to the tipples? The menu is original and unique, featuring a range of quirky cocktails and boozy bubble teas. Take the wasabi martini, for example, a mix of infused vodka, muddled Lebanese cucumber and vanilla gomme. But if your stomach starts to rumble, fear not, as this joint rustles up a mouthwatering selection of delicious delights. Chow down on mezze-style dishes, including grilled octopus jazzed up using black toum and chargrilled chicken accompanied by dill oil slaw.
