Hunter's Lodge Bar
Stepping into Hunter's Lodge Bar is like walking back into '70s 'Nam: you expect the DJ to bellow above the rock music: 'Good Morning, Bah-ha-rayn'. The bar is periodically packed with US military on R&R in the Gulf, so there's something rather poignant about the sober gloom when it's empty.

Ahmed Abdul Rahim's Coffee House
One of the surprisingly few decent traditional coffeehouses in Bahrain is Ahmed Abdul Rahim's Coffee House. The sign is in Arabic, but you'll find it hard to miss: just look for a line of old sheyba (venerable men) sitting on benches and puffing away on apricot sheesha.
