Spotlight on Bahrain Harbour - Connect Bahrain

Over the past few years, Bahrain Harbour has transformed into one of the Kingdom’s most exciting areas, blending waterfront dining, scenic walkways and a growing café culture all in one beautifully designed area.

ROKA BAHRAIN
Perched on the rooftop of Bahrain Harbour’s Pearl House, Roka Bahrain brings the internationally acclaimed Japanese robatayaki concept to Bahrain.

Combining breathtaking waterfront views with contemporary Japanese cuisine, the restaurant centres around its signature robata grill, where premium meats, seafood and vegetables are cooked over charcoal. Alongside an extensive selection of sushi, sashimi and creative cocktails, ROKA delivers a fantastic dining experience. We vote their weekend brunch as one of the best in Bahrain, both for value and the food itself.

SUSHISAMBA Bahrain
Located just around the corner on the 25th floor of Conrad Bahrain Financial Harbour, SUSHISAMBA brings its world-renowned fusion of Japanese, Brazilian and Peruvian cuisine to the Kingdom.

Take in the breathtaking views with one of the best rooftops in Manama. This is our favourite spot for a sundowner.

Avli by tashas
After a year at Bahrain Harbour, Avli has firmly established itself as one of the Kingdom’s most popular dining destinations. Bringing a modern take on Greek cuisine, the restaurant combines fresh Mediterranean flavours, stylish interiors and the warm hospitality for which the Tashas Group is known.

Avli is well known for its striking entrance, where elegant stone archways, olive trees and warm earthy tones create an atmosphere that feels worlds away from the city.
Inspired by the outdoor courtyards of the Mediterranean and the resilient culture of modern Athens, the restaurant combines sophisticated design with the relaxed spirit of Greek hospitality. Its outdoor area, lined with tables overlooking the waterfront, makes you feel like you’re dining in a European harbour and is the perfect spot for leisurely lunches that stretch into the afternoon or romantic dinners beneath the stars.

The menu focuses on Greek flavours with a contemporary touch, featuring beautifully prepared mezze, fresh seafood and signature dishes designed for sharing. Our favourites include the Zucchini Carpaccio and Feta Saganaki drizzled with honey. Seafood lovers will enjoy the beautifully prepared fish on the menu, while the Baklava Sundae is the most inspired Greek style pudding we’ve ever tried.
Whether you’re gathering with friends, celebrating a special occasion or simply soaking up the atmosphere, Avli offers a dining experience that captures Mediterranean living in the heart of Manama.

The Pelican Club
The Pelican Club brings a fresh slice of Miami-inspired dining to Bahrain Harbour. Blending Latino vibes with a lively atmosphere, this bar and restaurant are a fantastic addition to the area.

It is also home to one of Bahrain’s most talked-about dishes – the now-viral El Jefe Guac which is prepared table-side for guests. Combining creamy avocado with a surprising twist of sweet banana, the dish has become a social media sensation, drawing diners eager to try the unique flavour combination for themselves.

Get yourself out and about this September and book a table at one of these fantastic venues.
