Hamra Restaurant and Sheesha Lounge

Hamra Restaurant and Sheesha Lounge is a hotel restaurant and shisha lounge at Fraser Suites Muscat, located in the Landmark Building on 23 July Street in the Al Khuwair district of Muscat, Oman. It serves Middle Eastern and international dishes in a lounge-style setting and is aimed at hotel guests and residents of the business district who want a relaxed meal without travelling far. The menu centres on Middle Eastern grills, mezze and shisha. Mezze, the small shared plates that open a Levantine and Gulf meal, typically include dips such as hummus and moutabal, salads and pastries, and they pair naturally with grilled meats from the charcoal-style grill section. Shisha is a central part of the experience, and the lounge format encourages diners to linger over flavoured tobacco after the meal, a social habit common across the region. International dishes broaden the choice for mixed groups or guests who prefer familiar food. The atmosphere is relaxed and lounge-like, quieter than a standalone cafe thanks to the hotel setting. Dress is casual to smart casual. Prices are mid-range at roughly OMR 8-16 per person. Reservations are handled through the Fraser Suites Muscat front desk, which can be reached on +968 22 506 688 or at reservations.muscat@frasershospitality.com. Booking is sensible for evenings and weekends, when the lounge is at its busiest. The Al Khuwair location is a business and residential district, convenient for visitors staying nearby but inland from the beach, so those coming from elsewhere will usually travel by taxi or car. Visitors sensitive to smoke should ask about seating, since shisha is served in the lounge. Tea, coffee, fresh juices and soft drinks are the usual beverages, and guests should confirm current alcohol policy with the hotel.
