Farsha Cafe is a popular spot to grab a drink and some shisha whilst in Sharm el Sheik - but is it worth the hype?! We arrived at 16:30, the sunset was scheduled for 17:00. This seemed like a good time to get there as we had no trouble entering with Leo, there were still lots of seats spare. Around 15 minutes later lots of buses arrived with people who must have booked tours and it got a lot more busy. To get down to the cafe there are lots of steps, definitely not a place to bring a pram, and not an easy place to access for anyone with mobility issues. The view over the sea mixed with the intricate decor makes for a unique place to relax. The music and vibe are vibrant and chilled out. The staff are very attentive. I’ve never been anywhere quite like it. 💰Prices are reasonable. To give you an idea - it was £1.10 for soft drinks, £1.10 for mint tea, £1.40 for a cappuccino, £2.50 for a milkshake, £2.50 for a beer, £4.20 for a huge mojito. We stayed until around 19:00. It seemed to be getting a lot more lively around then. The place is beautiful when the lights all come on so definitely worth staying for that. Overall definitely worth a visit and I would say worth the hype. A memorable evening without having to spend a fortune. #farshacafeesharmelsheikh #sharmelsheikh #egypttravel #cheaptravel #thetravelmum #farshamountainlounge #familytravel
