Ban Black Coffee

I think I have tried most of the coffee roasters in or near Beirut, and I’ve settled on this one. The quality and freshness is better than Tafesh and more consistent than Cafe Younes, the blends are more interesting than Grind House and the prices are obviously far, far better than Kalai or Croum. And friendly people to deal with who know their stuff. The machines they stock are well chosen - if you check the online reviews of what they have, you can see they really have put some thought into what is on their site.

If you’re looking to elevate your espresso game, Ban Black is the place to visit. My quick stop turned into a one-hour coffee lesson thanks to the incredible hospitality of Mr. Charbel. He not only gave me a discount to support my espresso journey but also equipped me with essential barista tools – a leveler, WDT, portafilter, and even a bottomless filter – all while sharing practical espresso tips and tricks. His passion for coffee is contagious, and his willingness to guide beginners and coffee lovers is unmatched. The Colombian and Peruvian Skies blends are outstanding – full-bodied, aromatic, and a must-try for anyone serious about specialty coffee. Ban Black is more than a coffee shop; it’s a place where you learn, experiment, and fall deeper in love with espresso. With expert guidance, quality beans, and the right tools, it’s easily one of the top specialty coffee destinations in Lebanon. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – Highly recommended for anyone searching for espresso tools in Lebanon, specialty coffee beans, and a truly passionate barista experience.

Charbel is very knowledgeable about coffee and super nice too. Highly recommend this place for all espresso related tools and accessories.

Amazing place. Great quality products and superb ethiopian beans. Charbel is very professional and very friendly. Thank you for your time and all the beautiful timemore tools

A Specialty Coffee Treasure in Lebanon After years of my first setup and continually researching coffee gear-grinders, roasters, accessories, I was used to bringing or ordering from abroad or asking friends to bring items during their travels. I never expected to find all of these high quality specialty coffee tools available locally, let alone at competitive prices. The owner is deeply passionate and knowledgeable, curating equipment at the best value. Best of all, I paid less than what I would have spent importing, with the added bonus of local support and warranty. The advise and after sales support was just as impressive, making this a standout experience from start to finish.

A specialty coffee shop, unique in Lebanon. Finally, a shop for individual baristas.

Best fresh Coffee in town!

Ban Black's coffee workshop was a delightful journey into the art of coffee. Their expertise shone through, creating a perfect blend of education and enjoyment. The diverse range of products showcased their commitment to quality. Each sip of their coffee was an exquisite experience, a testament to their mastery in crafting the perfect cup. A must-visit for coffee enthusiasts! A special thanks for Coach Charbel Abou Hanna for his amazing presentation ☕🤍

A place you can truly trust. They act as advisors rather than just salespeople, never pushing you to buy, but guiding you to make the right choice. I bought a coffee machine and a grinder and received excellent customer service. They even offered their help in dialing in the perfect espresso cup. Highly recommended! Thank you BanBlack.

This shop is a hidden gem. I'm slowly but surely upgrading my pour-over coffee tools with proper equipment from Ban Black. I enjoy a nice cup of coffee and a chat with Charbel everytime I'm there. Highly recommended!

I was looking for the perfect blend for a dear coffee-lover friend, and Peruvian Skies was IT! Thank you Charbel and Ban Black for being so professional in helping me pick out the perfect gift for my friend, for being so patient (with a coffee ignorant like myself😅) , and for having the best service in town. My friend literally told me that this was the best gift she has ever tasted and received. 🥹

I recently participated in a workshop with Charbel Abou Hanna, and it proved to be incredibly fruitful. Charbel's extensive knowledge in the world of coffee is impressive. I highly recommend starting your coffee journey with Ban BLACK.

Overall, an enriching experience for any coffee enthusiast.

Best coffee machines and best after sales service Thank you for the love of coffee and the best machines in lebanon

I'm very satisfied with the products I received; they have a great quality finish, and the coffee choices are all so delicious, especially the Peruvian Skies, which is my personal favorite.

Had a great coffee introduction workshop today! The owner, Charbel, was very informative, helpful and inspiring. The coffee we got to taste was also amazing. If you're a coffee fan, it's a place that shouldn't be missed.

Nothing beats a great cup of coffee brewed from their expertly medium roasted beans (from Peruvian Skies, to Ethiopian sun going through their Sahara Blend). After trying other coffee roasters, Ban Black are the best in town.
