Rawda is a calm place for an afternoon coffee, argelieh or juice when you just need to get away from the city but can't actually leave. Rawda has been open since our grandparents were hipsters, and is famous for being a hang out for artists and cultural producers since its humble beginnings as a family cafe.
Rawda is particularly memorable for its sea-front location, tucked away near the entrance to Sporting club, and perched far out towards the shore, Rawda overlooks the Raoucheh rock from the northern point.
