Top Beirut Desserts & Sweets in 2026

The best way to understand Beirut is through its food. On this small-group street food tour, you'll eat your way through five of the city's most iconic and contrasting neighbourhoods — from the bohemian streets of Hamra to the Armenian community of Bourj Hammoud — tasting the dishes that have defined Lebanese cuisine for generations. Hummus so smooth it barely needs bread. Knefeh pulled fresh from the tray. Manoushe straight off the hot saj. Shawarma carved to order. Fresh juice pressed in front of you. These are not restaurant versions — these are the real thing, from the local spots that Beirutis themselves have been going to for decades.
