Bar Beirut

Best Known For

Charred chicken, dill oil, slaw, toum and bread.

A modern interpretation of where the Middle East meets the Mediterranean is on the menu at Bar Beirut on Garema Place in the heart of Canberra’s CBD. Join the midweek belly dancing and burlesque fun as you chill out with a refreshing cocktail, such as a Wasabi Martini, in surrounds of banquette seating, moody lighting and a well-stocked bar. Embark on a memorable culinary journey with signature oysters and pomegranate mignonette, or spiced loligo calamari and urfa chilli mayo; before larger plates of slow-braised lamb shank, tarator, sweet potato and date, or grilled octopus, black toum and potato. Vegetarians opt for roasted eggplant, lentil, mushroom and zhoug with a side of pumpkin, goats’ curd, dukkah and fennel; finish indulgently with a dessert of café-cotta, apricot and pistachio.
