Bahrain F1 Eating & Drinking Guide

Are you planning to visit Bahrain for the F1 race? If so, you're in for a treat! Bahrain is not only great for motorsports fans, but also for its delicious range of restaurants. Here are 5 places you absolutely shouldn't miss out on:

1. O Liban: This restaurant offers Lebanese food, alcohol, and sheesha - what more could you ask for? Their cute terrace is the perfect place to unwind after a long day at the track.
2. Kula: From stunning interiors to equally good food, that spans the African continent. Think excellent meat dishes, veggies and more. And the best part? It's located close to the track, so you won't have to go too far for a delicious meal.
3. The Foundry: With three floors of different vibes, this restaurant offers something for everyone. From their excellent steak frites in the restaurant to DJs on the rooftop, you won't be disappointed.
4. Fusions by Tala: If you're looking for stunning views, award-winning food, and a menu created by the region's top female chef, then Fusions is the place for you. And did we mention the vast rooftop terrace?
5. GB Cafe: Located in a historic location with sea views, GB Cafe offers honest and delicious food. Perfect for a relaxing meal after a long day at the races.

Looking for drinking holes during the F1?

Then check out these 5 spots...

1. The Quarry: One of the only places to grab a drink in Zallaq, this new (ish) underground restaurant cum bar is stunning and perfectly located near the track. One interior wall is made from the quarry rock and is an absolute showstopper!
2. Halo: A newcomer the scene, this outdoor Adliya spot is perfect for reasonable priced drinks and a bit of a dance.
3. Calexico: You can't go wrong with this Mexican favourite in Block 338. Tasty tacos, guac and of course some excellent drinks (my favourite is the tequila and grapefruit Paloma cocktail). Sit on their terrace for a bite then head upstairs for the DJ.
4. CUT Lounge: If fancy is what you're after, then the Four Season's CUT Lounge is sleek with top notch service and bevvies. Try to bag one of their terrace tables, to enjoy the stunning views.
5. Solymar: Last but not least, Solymar in Amwaj is a favourite of mine. Greek island vibes come to Bahrain with this pretty outdoor beach club & restaurant. Perfect for some rose wine, some mezze and enjoying the sun rays.
