Cafe Fahim

Tripoli, you will find no better example of a local spot than this as far as the cafes go. Fillds with mostly old men playing cards and smoking nargilleh, its rustic nature reassures you of the fact that you are where you are - far away from home. The gritty interior will go perfectly with your coffee or tea. Inexpensive and untainted, it’s definitely worth the LL1,500 for a tea, just to be able to sit and soak it all in. Just be aware though…this is pretty much a mens only joint. There were no women inside and I am not sure exactly what the reaction would be if any foreign ones wandered in. Might as well give it a shot though…but who knows…be prepared for staring to occur.
