Part 4: Friday’s Breakfast

Friday breakfasts play a central role in family life, shared rituals, and social gatherings at local cafés. This tour explores the varied forms of neighborhood cafés and their place within Manama’s streetscape—tucked into alleyways, spilling onto sidewalks, and quietly claiming public space. Participants experience the city’s shift from slow, communal breakfast mornings to the collective preparations for Friday prayers, observing how the street adapts to layered forms of public life.
