There is so much history here in this store. The owners grandfather started this store and it has been kept in the family. The owner is very passionate about the food he creates. You can taste the TLC in every plate. The chickpeas melt in your mouth as they have been cooked for 15 plus hours the traditional way. The eggs are organic and home grown. The tomatoes, radish, onions, chilli and mint are full of flavour. If you are coming to lebanon, you need to come to this place for breakfast. It's iconic!
One of the most authentic local restaurant/breakfast cafe experience.. Its what makes Lebanese food the best in ME. We walked from our hotel 3 mornings in a row for Fatah, 3 different hummus dishes (fool, beans with hummus) and mezze plates. All incredibly delicious, freshest ingredients of crushed garlic lemon herbs. Off course Ghosn himself is fantastic, engaging whilst cooking and hosting and sharing passion for his recipes. He recommended different options to simply enrich our experience. We wish his gem of a spot great success in the heart of Journieh, a small town on the Med Sea.

Best of the best! Food is most delicious! The guy that owns the place is very friendly and kind, he came and talked to us and told us about his business. We will be back! Honestly I could eat here every day! Just WOW
This place is truly a gem in the heart of Jounieh! I had an amazing brunch here and was blown away by the delicious food. I ordered the exquisite foul, the spicy balila, and the awarma fried eggs—all served warm and absolutely to die for! The owner, who is also the chef, is incredibly friendly, and his helper was just as welcoming. They made us feel right at home, adding a personal touch that made the whole meal even more enjoyable. Most importantly, the place was spotless. Highly recommend I’ll definitely be coming back!
Unmistakably the best Foul and Balila in Lebanon. The passion, the generosity and especially the taste are unmatched. I've tried so many other places but I always keep coming back to Ghosn.
A true gem for Lebanese breakfast lovers! The food is fresh, flavorful, and authentic, just like a homemade meal. The Warmest hospitality, cozy vibes, and generous portions make it a place you’ll want to return to again and again. Highly recommended!
