I ‘ve passed by it a few times and I would like to check out the interior!
3. Marzouq | July 15th, 2006 at 3:42 pm
Im curious of the interior as well!

LOL, the first time I saw that place I thought it was one of those really cool garages like the one in “Pimp my ride”. I thought that was soo cool until I read the sign, but still, it looks like a cool cafe.

Its open, i went there for the worldcup final…kinda cheesy interior but cool idea i guess…they have lil car parts for ashtrays and shit like that all over the place…people there are a little weird…whorehouse syle weird…
7. Marzouq | July 15th, 2006 at 4:46 pm
LOL! what exactly is whorehouse style wierd? That one is lost on me! I wish it could be a little less cheesy!
8. Carlsb3rg | July 15th, 2006 at 6:37 pm
I hope they have car tools for utensils :D
9. The Legi | July 15th, 2006 at 8:17 pm
Hahaha…Sorry guys but this is a completely shit idea. What next – a Dry Cleaning Restaurant?
10. The Grenadine | July 15th, 2006 at 8:24 pm
nice idea, but lousy looking “villa”? i think they should have stuck to retro architecture.
11. J-bug | July 15th, 2006 at 8:50 pm
I agree with Nina, we passed by there late in the evening yea cheesy… Didnt go in but it has that very forbidden dingy dank look that a chica wouldnt wanna step in
12. CyberRowdy | July 15th, 2006 at 10:59 pm
cofees are gonna be very greasy I heard! LOL
13. Marzouq | July 16th, 2006 at 12:11 am
That picture reminds me of that movie PINK from the 1980s! hehehe! I think they need to stick to some modern looking garages! Have a couple of forks lifts.. so wrenchs for utensils and they would probably look better! Im going to check it out and see how it is!

Hey, if i was wondering about the Proxy link, i use it to log on to youtube.com because some video’s wont open up, but when I use the proxy it doesnt allow any cideo to play… any idea?
15. MvYv | July 16th, 2006 at 3:10 am
Looks like a wierd idea.. If anyone has been there then could you please tell us what kind of food they have..
16. zaydoun | July 16th, 2006 at 2:39 pm
It looks like it took its design cues from Nino’s… and y’all know how dated that place is looking!
17. Nina | July 16th, 2006 at 2:53 pm
I had a yucky baked potato but tried a yum chicken sandwhich from a friend…the food is overpriced for what it is though…and overall its CREEPY…

in the begging I would like to thank you all, and your opinion is really important for me, I would like to answer the people whose asking for new style, the cafe is designed for the classic cars that why we are putting the old car out side but our inside design is modern and we trying to put all the cars themes as part of our decorating such as the waiters uniform and the ashtrays, our cafe opened for the world cup but our official opening was on 13-07-06 and I hope you can visit us and I’m sure you will like it :)
19. captainflamingo | July 17th, 2006 at 2:06 am
i have to agree with nina on this one, i’ve been there once and the place is overpriced and the atmosphere was yeah kinda like a “whorehouse” atmosphere (lighting and stuff) — i would expect some dodgy people to go there sometime =P but overall its quite comfy in there, not too bad i just don’t like how overpriced it is
20. Garage Owner | July 17th, 2006 at 4:16 pm
I hared a lot about the prices that it is over, but if you compare it with our quality it will be nothing and the main resin by overpricing am choosing my customers level, and I would like to ask the people who went there had they ever seen shit people there ( 3aqad).
I would like to talk about our programs, on each weekend we are having a DJ and some funny games and gifts and we might have party there but it will be couples party and we will have a bodyguard for the weekend to select our customers, finally we are trying to sponsoring any autos events, and last Friday we were hading the Kuwait Summer Bike Show at Garage Café and we are planning for more and more activities in Garage Café, for your information Garage Café is Kuwaitis idea and we are trying open some franchise in some of Kuwait, Bahrain, Emirate, and soudia Arabia moles. So please don’t judge so fast because we still new and we will approve that and I promos you all Garage Café will be a brand name in the wild world :)

I heard about this Garage Cafe from someone.. Few weeks ago.. to be honost the name was a bit wierd to me.. my instant reaction was: “What was that?.. Garage?.. why did you choose that name?”.. I wanted to check about how serious is that.. Guess what?.. there is a Garage Cafe!.. the front design of the intrance is innovative.. I was trying to access the photos provided on the link on the webpage.. unfortunately couldn’t for some technical resons related tp the owner’s account I guess.. any way.. It is a new and creative idea.. I once had my own idea for a restaurant.. even more weired.. but more classy.. I Greet the owner’s for the courageous and creative idea.. and hope to have more detailed photos to encourage people and attract more customers.. Best regards
