In case you didn’t know, the long-awaited Barbie movie was supposed to be out in cinemas today – but of course, Lebanon is going to be late to the party. Though the screening has been postponed in Lebanon until August, we refuse to feel left out until then. We decided to curate a few of Lebanon’s pinkest destinations to help you cope until the movie is finally (…hopefully) released. Here are 6 pink places in Lebanon to live out your Barbie fantasy.
Dubbed one of Lebanon’s most Instagrammable coffee shops, Caffeina is as pink as it gets. Decorated with Barbie-approved shades of pink and the cutest pieces of furniture, this spot will feel like more than just a coffee run.
And if it’s not the flower-framed mirrors and velvety hot pink seating making you smile, then surely one of their colorful slushies will do the trick. Make sure to complete your visit with some of their delectable fresh bakes!
For more information, check out their Instagram. They’re open daily from 7am until 11pm in Fanar, and starting 9am in CityMall.
Beirut’s pinkest rooftop yet, Paradiso overlooks the Mediterranean, giving you a front row view of the sparkling water and breathtaking sunset. This spectacular destination is what we pictured Barbie’s Malibu DreamHouse would look like if it were set in Lebanon.
But being Beirut’s own pink paradise is only a fragment of the Paradiso experience. Complete with perfectly concocted drinks and amazing weekly line-ups, the rooftop will slowly become one of the most addictive spots you’ve ticked off your bucket list.
Open from 7pm until late, reach out to them on +961 81 696 686 for bookings.
If we could turn Barbie into a place, it would be this adorable Khalde spot. The Barbie-inspired café boasts the dreamiest pink decor, filled with the most colorful flower arrangements. Cherry Pastry is letting us live out our Barbie fantasies to the fullest.
Snap a picture at the Barbie telephone booth before diving into their pink bites and fresh bakes. Donuts, cakes, and cupcakes galore, for our Barbie-loving readers with a sweet tooth.
And if you’re feeling extra creative, maybe create your own Barbenheimer poster by dressing the part. Open daily from 10:30am until 10pm, call them on +961 71 46 56 47 or +961 81 67 61 16 for reservations.
You’ll fall in love with this plant-based hidden gem in Mar Mikhael, a pink and pet-friendly dream you’ll find yourself frequenting. The café and resto-bar is known for being the quickest fix for a sour mood. Watch your worries fade away with every bite of their colorful dishes and every belly rub to their four-legged visitors.
Orenda‘s feel-good vibes will surely put a smile on your face, so if you’ve never tried it yet, now is your chance! And if you happen to be a loyal customer, then we think it’s time for another visit.

With every bite as cheerful and colorful as their decor, there won’t be a dull moment during your visit to Roselle in Koura. This Barbie-esque spot is adding a much-needed splash of color to your day, with pink drinks and dreamy bites.
We recommend their iconic Roselle latte and a slice of their chocolate cake, and if your sweet tooth cravings are hitting hard, try their bubblegum milkshake!
Open daily from 8am until 11pm, make sure to visit their Instagram for more information.
