7 Spots We Wish Would Reopen In Lebanon

Our only wish for 2023: bring these spots back ASAP!

1. Pinkberry

A visit to Pinkberry was everyone’s favorite way to conclude an outing. We always started off with ordering a free sample before going crazy on the toppings of our go-to order.

2. Shake Shack

For the short and blissful time that it was open, Shake Shack had some of the BEST fries known to man. We still dream of their crinkle cut cheese fries to this day.

3. Cheesecake Factory

We loved hosting get-togethers and birthdays at Cheesecake Factory because of their generous portions and downright amazing menu. Our only wish is to get to enjoy it one last time (bas 3al 1500 please).

4. Bardo

After 15 years of wonderful service, beloved Bardo closed its doors in October 2021 because of the crisis. The space was home to some of our dearest memories, and we hope it gets the chance to start a new chapter in the future.

5. TGI Friday’s

The only correct way to spend your Friday was with a lunch at this long-gone gem. We still remember the taste of their sirloin steak with mashed potatoes and lemon broccoli.

6. Applebee’s

For those who never got the chance to experience Applebee’s, the best way to describe this place is a taste of heaven. If it reopens in Lebanon, we are never leaving.

7. Hard Rock Café

Did everyone and their mother host or attend a birthday at Hard Rock Café? It was one of the best hang out spots, with great food and even better ambiance. Our go-to order? Cold beer and spicy wings.
