A bar that conjures up the romance of far away worlds and bygone eras, Byblos, named after the ancient Phoenician port makes a fine waterfront drinking spot.
Nestle into a velvet banquette and partake in the extensive array of post-Phoenician cocktails on offer (the Twisted Godfather being possibly its signature) or bypass the cocktails and go straight for the impressive whisky or wine menu.
Alternatively go for the spirit tasting platter where especially selected scotches, tequilas, rums or bourbons are matched with a complementary bar snack or, for a rare glimpse of 19th century European ways an absinthe fountain for 2 or 4 is available.
