The best bistros and brasseries - Algeria in 2024

Practical information : Take a break Algeria

What's very local

Alcohol is forbidden by religion, but while many Algerians don't drink, those who do are generally heavy consumers. According to a recent study, Algerians are even the biggest consumers of alcohol in Africa. They generally drink beer and wine. Apart from wine, other alcohols are imported. Beers of the famous Heineken or 1664 brands are readily available in most bars serving alcohol.

While it has become easy to find bars serving alcohol in Algiers, this is not the case in other cities, let alone in the interior of the country. Bars (especially hotel bars) are certainly convivial places, and it's not uncommon to come across a few women. By contrast, there are no women in popular cafés, and customers only drink coffee and fruit juice.

Most restaurants don't serve alcohol either, with a few exceptions (often high-end or hotel restaurants).
