How long is the wait for a table at Farsha Cafe in Sharm El Sheikh in the evening, and how does entry work?

TL;DR

Farsha Cafe can have a queue in the evening: one recent report says arriving around 20:00 meant about a 40-minute wait. Staff may hand out numbered slips, then let people down in batches and assign seats; service can also be slow enough that some visitors leave before ordering.

What the community said

A recent visitor arrived at Farsha around 20:00 and got in at about 20:40. Entry worked in stages: staff handed out a slip at the top, the line moved gradually, and then guests were let down into the cafe where seating was assigned.

One practical tip is that the queue at Farsha tends to move faster after the lights come on, because many people stay specifically for that moment and leave afterwards. If you arrive around 20:00, expect a wait, especially if you are a group of four.

Not everyone had a smooth visit: one group walked over from Old Market, stopped at Farsha just for drinks, waited about 40 minutes without getting served, and left. They used Santorini as a backup option nearby for beer instead of waiting longer.
