Buns and Guns was a fast-food restaurant in Sfeir, a southern suburb of Beirut, Lebanon. It stood out for its war-themed concept, featuring military-style decorations, imitation weapons, camouflage nets, and background audio mimicking gunfire. The dishes were served with names of "rocket-propelled grenade" (chicken on a skewer) and other names like Kalashnikov, Dragunov, Viper, and B52.[1] Their motto was "A sandwich can kill you."[2]
In mid-2009, the restaurant had closed and been sold to another owner who opened under the name; "Shoot" with a sports-theme.
