Urbanista in Beirut

Served me iced tea out of a can.

A new york style coffee shop in the heart of gemmayze. Laid back, good coffee and good food. Free wifi is also available. Great place for meeting, working and studying.

A relaxing and comfortable place with a huge variety of mouth-watering sandwiches, burgers and desserts. As well as Alcoholic drinks, hot drinks and specialty drinks. You really feel like ordering the whole menu. Fair portions. Highly recommended!

Love the place. I highly recommend the pain perdu

Loved it but had to leave the place at 7 rather than 10 as usual :/

Great for long working sessions

one of the best restaurants and coffee shops

Breakfast, lunch, all sorts of coffee, juices and smoothies. Friendly staff. Nice pastry to go with your coffee.

So many laptops that it feels like a co-working space. Food was disappointing, not even mediocre. Nicely designed and chill music though.

Cool place. Good food. Hanging out with a laptop to get things done is standard practice.

Good variety of food and drinks, lovely backyard, nice place to chill, study, or do some work, meet some friends or go on a date

Best place for coffee

Very nice cafe . I usually park my car in the beginning of the gemmiyze street and then I skate to the cafe . Trust me if you find a parking spot don't wait for the next closer one . A walk in gemmiyze street is a joy to travelers or locals . With all the old houses. The cafe has very nice menu that satisfies big audience. The coffee is good. My favourite drink is the (ginger lemonade-price 10 thaw) and the sandwich would be (salmon -price 25 thaw) stay away from their English cake . . . It only looks good

Lovely environment for a cup of coffee or study session. However, in terms of food and dessert, I'm not a huge fan. Service is extraordinary, but the actual food is nothing special and quite overpriced for most items. The chocolate cake we tried was very underwhelming and was served with some whip cream that didn't do much for the dish.

I can call it one of my new favorite café. The interior achitecture of the place was enjoyable. I ordered Le Club sandwich cones with fries and salad. My friend ordered a blueberry strawberry and banana smoothie which she loved it as well. Calm atmosphere. Could work more on the service.

Cozy place with nice plates!!!

Love to spend my mornings and working hours in this place!

Great if you need a place to chill, read, study or get some work done.The coffee is great too!

Nice cafe with great outdoor seating together with nice americano and breakfast to kick off my morning in Beirut, Lebanon. Great varieties of food and dessert together with comfortable outdoor seating area and indoor well decorated seating arrangement are perfect for having tea and lunch.

Lovely

One of the loveliest coffeeshop resto so farGood ambiance for working or just chillingKnown for their good salads, you can mix your own salad.Try their avocado yogurt bowl for breakfast and their americano coffee for the good blendsBbq burges wins for burgers, chicken quesadillas for starters, and Aioli chicken for sandwiches.Cozy interior and comfy couches.

I like it

Not the greatest coffee or the greatest service, especially for the price.. But still a nice place

Urbanista is a very nice place in terms of ambience. But they lack good customer service, actually the service is really slow. We tried 5 different items of which are starters, burgers,and sandwiches. Honestly the good is average. I dont know about dessert and breakfast.maybe we'll try them some day.

One can have a typical urbanista experience in this branch . The food is delicious, highly fresh and hot , service is ordered and punctual, prices are reasonable and the ambience is nice and hygiene is always up to standards too.

Friendly staff, a good place to work. The only weakness is the lighting when it comes to reading a book

I like the decor and the atmosphere. The food is good in general but sometimes its not fresh as it should be. But overall a good place

Great place to study. Spacious, good lighting and many options for food and drinks. Staff is friendly and speed of service is very good. I recommended trying the Sesame chicken salad.

This place is good for working and for friendly outings. Their Quinoa chips are so good. In general their food is great.

One of the best Cafes in Beirut, they have a great variety of good quality beverages and snacks. I really liked the decor and the small open area they have inside ,I highly recommend it if you happen to be in Jumazieh street and looking for a quite elegant place to grab something to eat and have a cup of coffee. It's kind of pricy to be honest

I passed by Urbanista hoping it will be suitable to have a coffee and focus on my job search and this exactly what I have found,Can’t tell much about the food other than it looked and smelled amazing.Will keep you posted for my actual food tasting review

We have visited two Urbanista in Beirut and found both of them equally nice and hip. The atmosphere is relaxed and modern, and the opening hours generous. You can stay for hours and read or work on your laptop, eat or take a drink. The WiFi is good.

Lovely place, great for studying and freelancing. But there are some annoying electrical noises in the outdoor area.

I have ordered a delivery from Urbanista after receiving many recommendations from my friends, but the food was really awful.. the brown refried french fries ,the salad and the escalope were very disgusting, i cannot understand how the person in charge of my order accepted to send me this!! Please check the pictures

Very cozy place, friendly and helpful staff

A very pleasant place for working or meeting. The food is good. What's disappointing lately is the state of the furniture and the couches especially - It's time for some rennovation.

Nice mood and stays till late compared to other coffee shops in the area like sip which closes at 9pm.. also quite and a lot of people are working..

Lovely chilled out spot for a coffee & breakfast

Very nice place, cozy, clean, fairly well decorated, with a smoking area. However it's the kind of place where you rather chill alone or work than a bustling coffeehouse.

Varied menu, good food. Service could be better and staff more welcoming

Great breakfast and lunch spot. Industrial interiors. VERY expensive coffees though. Generous portions for food.

The *Club* was fresh and tasty....

This location used to be one of my favorite place. Coffee is great, but I was very disappointed of the desert quality and value, OVERPRICED . We asked for chocolate soufle, they served a small piece of brownie very sweet and sugary for 12000LL REALLY!?!??.

Tasty coffee. Nice place with beautiful interior. Also great for studying or work.

Nice place to eat and work. Good WiFi connection

Been there many times, I love the decor and the general feel; you feel you are in a welcoming loft in Soho. Coffee is good, and very good place to meet up for business or with friends. Mixed feelings about the food, it depends what you order.

Great overall experience, very comfortable couches, ideal for long work sessions.They offer really good coffee but the food (and coffee) portions are relatively small (and a bit pricey).

I love this coffeeshop . U can find anything u are craving to eat . This chicken sesame salad was tasty and has an asian inspiration twist( my favorite cuisine) . Staff is friendly. Service is fast . U can chill over a book and get some work done using their wifi .

Good coffees and breakfast. WiFi and proper tables available in order to work from laptop if needed. Service is good and prices reasonable.

Good iced coffee, nice vibe and interior, shame about the over-priced food. Come for coffee and co-working, pass on the food.
