So I was waiting for around 20 minutes to be seated. Then after being seated took 10 minutes to get the menu, then when I asked about what does a plate contain in the, the waiter didn’t know what was on the menu and he had to bring another waiter and that also took 10 minutes. The food was very average. The place has around 12 tables in total, so they are either understaffed or very inexperienced. (Plus point: there was a blackout afterwards, and they didn’t even care to put some candles on all tables, even though they did for some regular customers)

hidden place for the foreigner while many locals continuously visit here. I went there with local brothers. The mood was cozy and friendly, so that I could enjoy here fully enough. In addition, The alcohol price is way cheaper than any place. To be frank with you, Here was alternative for the tab maadi which asked for the fxxxing reservation while there are lots of vacant tables. I believe beer is same but, here is more friendly thann tha tab. In summary, I only me do not know here among people who keep drinking here alcohol in maadi. why not we visit again?

  • Andrew Elmasry

Red Onion is a bar and resturant offer local and imported drinks, there are different areas inside so you can sit on a high table, onbar chair , or in the regular dining area. Red onion is a Mid-priced, beer is for 28 le including constantly refilling of popcorn and lupin beans bowels. Try the cheese with tomato and the oriental sausage. The place is a bit small and smokey. It becomes crowded on weekends

  • Dan Laverty

Second time I went. I like this place. Food is good and friendly service but they tried to overcharge me on the bill. They handed me a slip of paper that just said 660 egp. I knew my meal was way less than that. When I questioned they brought me the real itemized bill which was 220 egp less saying they made an error. Be careful.

A great find! Planned to visit The Tap but it was closed (contrary to Google Maps suggestions) but Red Onion was very close. And glad we found it. Quite a small “cosy” pub with a great atmosphere. Not many places in Maadi will do cold draught beer, and offer sports on TV to boot - The Red Onion has it covered. A really friendly little place!

  • Skylar Joseph

This was a great bar to hang out at. It has a very relaxed atmosphere and the wooden aesthetic makes the place feel very vintage. They even let you bring in your own bottles of alcohol to drink so that you don't have to pay bar prices! Overall I had a great experience there, would return myself, and would recommend this place to others!

  • Elvis Munatswa

This is probably the cheapest bar in all of Cairo. You can afford a few beers a night. The atmosphere is quite chilled. But if you are not a smoker, this might be such a turn off. People smoke in your face and everywhere. The waitrons are quite curious, you can knack a good conversation whisky enjoying a cold Sakara!

  • Karim Ayman Riesco

Old school bar, very cheap and great for a quality chatter and catching up with your old gang members, staff is friendly, experienced and smart. As I crossed the 30 years line, I tend to lean towards this bar more and more...as it's not noisy and you get what you want quickly and efficiently.

  • Yehia Darwish

Red Onion has been around for years and the mood and feeling of that place hasn't changed in all that time. For those looking to talk over drinks in a classic atmosphere Red Onion is the way to go.

Very cozy old style Egyptian pub, good food but a lot of smoke! No renovations since 15 years I know, big bit outdated !!! Just selling alcohol doesn't make it any more special!!!??? Move on and at least , clean and repaint the place!...

The service is amazing, the drinks were well served with snacks next to them, and the atmosphere is amazing as well, it just needs a better taste of music and it would be perfect
