Lina's - Paris in Beirut

The worst experience ever

Quite place to meet with your friends.The menu is now priced in dollars .The fresh drinks are tasty .I don’t recommend to eat there . The pizzas were really bad.Friendly waiters.Overall experience 3/5

Quaint Parisian style Cafe with a decent menu. But it suffers greatly from poor organization and very slow and bad service. I sat for a very long time while even the owner walked around clueless.Overall not worth the time and money, better to go to any of the other Cafes in Badaro

Staff are nice and place is cozy and comfortable however their items are overpriced

Very bad service...always they have problems either in the internet or in the AC...today i was very upset they told me two days ago that they fixed the internet i came today i ordered espresso and water i asked if they have internet they told me no i ordered the bill..i just sit 2 minutes they gave me the bill 😅😅...i felt that i am in a place either less than normal...

Hot chocolate wasn’t tasty, but the brownies was good.

Nice service and good food

I am out of words, on how terrible the full experience was .. ya 3ayb el shoum

Very bad experience as soon as I entered the restaurant!

The place is nice and clean but the service is slow

For your own health. Pls pls dont ever visit this place again. The staff is extremely slow. Cutting vegetables fruits.etc.. without gloves. Sice they enter the restaurant. They dont wash their hands. Neither sanitiz their hands.just pass it.u can also read the reviews on zomato. If u want proof. Enter the kitchen and see. The place socks.

One of best cafes in town good food, cozy place, and Murray the chef 👌👌👌👩‍🍳

Nice place, powerful AC 😁

Calm, good coffee, good service and sandwiches. But no view and nothing interesting... Just a normal calm cafe in the middle of a busy street.

Calm environment, good service, nice welcoming faces

The attitude was unprofessional from the waitress, and recklessness from the chefMy order was missing ingredients, not recommended if you are looking to sooth out on a saturday morning.

The halloumi salad is a joke. Small pieces of cold halloumi which u actually have to search for in order to find.

A very nice place to meet with friends, grab a coffee, meet with coworkers, hang out or work.

Nice Place. Calm. Breakfast is fine. Nice place for casual meetings.

Waiter didnt bring the croissant ordered, Wifi didnt work, had to bring sugar for my coffee to the table myself. Food was average and came fast

One of my favourite cafes in Lebanon, all branches are excellent, food is lovely, coffee is nice

A lovely restaurant that serves delicious and yummy varieties of food for breakfastat, lunch and dessert. Food items are reasonably priced and service is punctual and prompt . Hygiene is amazing and the staff is highly friendly, dedicated and professional. The ambience and music also add to the whole experience.Highly recommended restaurant to anyone seeking a lovely dining experience.

Good menu selections. Overall atmosphere is good but the experience wasnt memorable nor unique, I was hoping for the "wow lets go back to Linas guys!".. It seems theyre targeting a niche of the total population, not much diversity there. Waiters are well trained and handle customer relations properly.

I couldn’t believe that they didn’t have a baby changing room let alone a changing table! It’s an absolute disgrace that such a reputable cafe would not provide such services for moms! I was absolutely furious today! Not to mention the structure inside also doesn’t cater to prams or people with disabilities! Staff were so bland and didn’t care! And the cherry on top when we asked for a socket to charge a phone they said we don’t have! I will never go there again! I will never recommend such places. Complete waste of money, complete waste of time! Bathrooms were also filthy!

I went there twice. Place is very cozy and relaxing. Their hot chocolate is tasty and great for a cold weather. However, I have tried a salad and a sandwich and they were average. Their prices are very high compared to their quality. The service was quick but we sat in a place near the waiters and their voices were really loud.

A calm spot, great choices on the menu and helpful staff. They have a non smoking area but it is not that separate from the smoking one

Linas is always a good place for a cup of coffee or even for something to eat.I usually go there for coffee, a cigarette and a book to clear my mind. Its almost always a perfect place to do so.Unfortunately today was over crowded and the waiters were not that attentive so I had to wait around 10 minutes after calling and trying to get their attention so I can ask for the bill.. But it came quickly after all.As a sum up, I recommend Linas only if its not busy in there.

Great, cosy and calm place. Excellent environment for work.

Nice place to hang on a rainy afternoon... foods good too!

Perfect for business meeting, Quite, welcoming and YET VERY SWEET drinks...

Good ambienceNice staff

Cosy place for a hot drink and a meet up, music was a bit loud for 2 pm, salads are good

I recently arranged to meet friends at Linas in Badaro. Although Badaro had lots of bars, Linas in the only real coffee shop. Anyway, it was 2pm on a Monday afternoon, not exactly peak hours. There were quite a few customers enjoying a late lunch. As we entered the young lady waitress asked if we wanted smoking or non smoking. Already the idea that every restaurant in Lebanon allows smoking inside is something I find disgusting! We obviously asked for non smoking and for 3 people. There were 2 tables for 2 next to each other but she said theres no room, we should sit in smoking. When I suggested putting the tables together it was done with a shrug. From the moment we entered the waitress didnt smile. Despite that, the air conditioning gave us fresh air and the coffee was good. I have mixed feelings about this place...

I go there whenever i have work to be done on my laptop. Super friendly staff

Feels like my safe place, especially when i just want to have a good coffee and a tasty desert. My preferred Linas branch

The smell of cigars and cigarettes was intruding into the non-smoking designated space, wasn’t enjoyable at all for a non smoker.

Nice coffee shop. great location: quiet and cozy in the middle of Badaro.

Nice coffee shop like all linas branches but this one has a special touch because of its location and its setting and decor... It is cozy and romantic... They serve a variety of good wine red, rosé and white... They have a nice food menu and desserts... They have great coffee; espresso, American, lattes... We had a nice beer... Good service... Very friendly staff... Valet parking service is offered too... It is recommended

Quiet and cozy place to meet friends or coworkers and have a bite. I didnt like my nicoise salad nor the "fresh" orange juice I had. The place closes 12 midnight

Its a quiet cute place to hangout at, all is goood but still the size of the cappuccino is way to small.

The burgers are pretty good. Their 30% off dinner in October 2017 making it more affordable restaurant. The waiters were not attentive.

Coffee quality could be better. Usually quiet place good for a cigar or a meeting with friends. Prices are high

Nice interior, calm, good service, clean. Suitable for a nice coffee break and chat with friends. What i dont like is the fact that it doesnt have an outdoor.

A nice place to relax and enjoy a good time with friends. It tends to be expensive.

Passed by Linas for a coffee and sandwich and found myself trying the halloumi light baguette and the Cafe Dolce Vita Frappe. For a light sandwich (usually a tasteless choiceit was perfect by the addition of avocado paste. The frappe was amazing also. The service was good.

Nice place for food and coffee... good selection of food for all times throughout your day. Friendly staff. I highly recommend it.

food is admittedly good but service is exhaustingly slow, we had to ask for water twice before we got any, and explain that we needed a glass each. One waiter kept speaking French regardless of which language we were speaking, it was quite annoying, especially as we heard him speak fair English with other customers.

very friendly staff, strategic location in Badaro street. Light menu is fine, try the Quinoa salad, a finesse.

A good Linas outlet that is very well decorated. Staff here are friendly and coffee tastes so good.

This place opened recently in the location of the now defunct iconic Badaro Inn. Part of the Linas franchise the place does not err far from the mother brand. Offering a varied menu which recently included warm meals and not only cold cut sandwiches, the price tends to run high for the value of what you are ordering but the patrons of this brand are usually there not for the food but mostly for seeing and being seen at Linas (something I could never understand if you know how the brand is in Paris)The place is extremely smoker friendly and does not respect the anti-smoking law mixing both smoking and non smoking areas indoor with total negligence to such issues.I only go there when I need to meet someone who is hellbound on sitting at Linas
