Riyadh Nightlife Tips by baronedivandastad Top 5 Page for this destination

Coffee Day: Coffee and juice in the shadow of Faisaliyah

This small coffee place is very popular with locals and visitors alike, as it is situated between the Faisaliyah Hotel and the Khozama Hotel.

It's got good espresso, turkish is nice and they have a number of good juices. There's also free WLAN access, which cannot be bad.

The Lebanese owners are very friendly, and prices are quite reasonable

If you do not like it there's quite a few places nearby, in the same side street. The street is closed to private traffic, so it's quite walkable (unlike most other places in Riyadh).

Dress Code: Thobe if you're Saudi, anything goes otherwise.

Directions: Olaya, behind Al-Khozama Hotel

Theme: Eating and Drinking

Shopping malls: Nightlife?

Shopping and sipping coffee are pretty much the only activities you can do in Riyadh at night. The shopping malls are indeed big and nice to be in, though the prices aren't as low as one may imagine (you typically save on VAT).
The most popular mall by far is Faisaliyah, but Extra (for electronics), Kingdom tower (with its women-only floor) and Sahara are worth a visit, as is the computer souq in the southern backstreets of Olaya.

Dress Code: No miniskirt

Address: You'll see them!

Directions: Around

Theme: People Watching
