The Obama Bar & Grill serves up American classics like burgers, wings, pizza, and ice-cold beer. It's American comfort food in the middle of Central Asia!

Comparable to TGI Friday's or Applebee's, the Obama Bar & Grill is unique among restaurants in Bishkek because of its namesake, President Barack Obama.

The restaurant is decorated with photos and posters of Obama, and the theme has proven quite trendy in Bishkek. The Obama Bar & Grill is popular with both locals and expats alike. I was shocked that the Kyrgyz people were so familiar with the American President.

I thought for sure people would be asking me about Barack Obama, but it turns out Kyrgyz people are very familiar with American politics. The question "who is Barack Obama" never came up once! Be sure to try the Obama Bar & Grill on your next visit to Bishkek! #bishkek #bishkeklife #kyrgyzstan
