9 Things to Do in Beirut If You’re Single on Valentine’s Day

Being single on Valentine’s Day in Beirut doesn’t mean you have to stay in and scroll past endless couple posts. Whether you’re looking for a last-minute date, celebrating with friends, or indulging in some well-deserved treats, here are nine fun ways to make the most of the day.

If you want to snag a last-minute date

1. Head over to Luna’s Kitchen and mingle with singles!

Wear white if you’re single and black if you’re taken. And if you manage to hit it off with someone, you can sing your hearts out during karaoke.

2. Head over to Le Ouf‘s Makhlouta Night where you can meet new people over drinks and nibbles

Whether you’re single, taken, married, or divorced, Le Ouf is celebrating love with a music-filled Makhlouta Night on February 13, 2025.

3. Go to this speed dating event at ZUR Studios (and make your own sushi while you’re at it)

This speed dating event will last an hour and a half, and after you’re done, you might just end up with a special someone to make a heart-shaped sushi cake with.

8. Treat yourself to ALL the red velvet cakes from the special Valentine’s Day menu at Moon’s Coffee and Pastry Shop

You can have anything off their Valentine’s Day menu, but their red velvet cakes are a must-try.

9. Share a box of Crumbl cookie dupes from Kooki’s Kookies

They come in a cute pink box, wrapped with a black bow. Their flavors are to die for, but this is definitely something you should share with your friends (or eat over the next few days).
