about us

A Café Framed by Art

Situated within the Bassam Freiha Art Foundation, Café des Artistes offers a serene environment where elegance and comfort converge. The café provides a discreet and refined space to relax, reflect, and enjoy thoughtful hospitality.

Every element, from the curated menu to the subtle decor, is intended to create a harmonious setting that complements the surrounding cultural landscape.

An Exhibit of Flavors

At Café des Artistes, our menu mirrors the atmosphere. It is meticulously balanced and thoughtfully prepared. From quality morning coffees to delicate meals and select pastries, every item is made with care and attention to detail.

“Inspired by a lifetime of cultural experiences and artistic encounters, my vision is to create a space where art transcends time and borders, igniting a passion for the arts and philantrophy in future generations.”

An Extension of the fondation

Café des Artistes was conceived as a natural continuation of the fondation experience: a place where the appreciation of art gracefully continues beyond the exhibition halls.

Open to both fondation guests and walk-in visitors, the café stands as a bridge between the aesthetic and the everyday, offering quiet sophistication amidst creativity.
