  1. A

    Al-Ahli Coffeeshop

    The best place for delicious, layered fruit juices of pomegranate, custard apple and mango is Al-Ahli Coffeeshop in the middle of Mutrah Souq. There is a traditional coffeehouse, on the left, just inside the souq, where Omani elders (men) trade news.

  2. Trader Vic's

    When it comes to cocktails (try the Samoan fogcutter), nowhere competes with this fun and lively Polynesian-style venue. With live Latin music and wafts of Mongolian barbequed lamb chops, you'll probably be seduced into staying for dinner.

    John Barry Bar

    Named after the raised ship and its booty of silver treasure that made the fortunes of the Hyatt's owner, this bar is a sophisticated setting for some live piano music and a cocktail.

    Star Cinema

    The Star Cinema screens both Western and Indian films. It occupies the unmistakable round building with flashing lights near the telephone office in Ruwi.

    Al-Ghazal Bar

    More of a pub than a bar, this is a popular expat meeting place, with live music, a quiz night, televised sport and excellent Western-style bar food.
