Local tip
A daytime visit offers the cafe atmosphere, while an evening booking suits guests looking for karaoke and the venue’s Arabic night-time setting.

Lubyanka is a cafe-karaoke venue on Bol'shaya Lubyanka in Moscow, combining Arabic cuisine and Eastern-inspired surroundings with a late-night music format. The venue is designed as a place for breakfast, lunch, a relaxed daytime pause or an evening meal, with a setting that draws on the colours, aromas and atmosphere associated with the East.

Arabic dishes and drinks form the culinary focus. The menu is paired with a bar selection, giving the venue a broader role than a conventional daytime cafe. The atmosphere is intended to change as the day progresses. During daylight hours, Lubyanka presents itself as a calm, warm place for food and conversation. After sunset, the tone becomes more theatrical, with evening dining framed as part of an Arabic-inspired celebration of flavour, colour and aroma.

Karaoke is central to the venue’s identity. The venue operates as a nighttime karaoke destination, making it suitable for occasions that continue beyond dinner. The music element adds an entertainment-focused dimension without removing the restaurant and bar setting. The result is a format that can cover several types of visit, from a morning meal or midday break to an evening gathering centred on food, drinks and singing.

The interior character is rooted in Eastern styling rather than a minimalist or purely contemporary cafe approach. Warmth, mystery and ceremonial presentation are recurring elements in the venue’s description, creating an immersive setting for Arabic-inspired dining. The atmosphere is especially directed towards evening visits, when the venue adopts its night-time identity and karaoke becomes a defining part of the experience.

Lubyanka is positioned near the Lubyanka, Turgenevskaya and Sretensky Boulevard metro stations. Its combination of daytime cafe service, Arabic food, bar offerings and late-night karaoke gives it a flexible character. It suits diners looking for an Eastern-themed setting, people arranging an evening celebration and karaoke guests seeking a place where the entertainment and meal take place under one roof. Reservations are available for table bookings and event arrangements.
