Juffair (Arabic: الجفير) is a district situated south of central Manama, Bahrain. It was originally a village separate from Manama, but it has since been absorbed by the suburban expansion of Manama in the 20th century, and presently includes large parts of land reclaimed from the sea. It is home to many hotels, restaurants, flats, and villas. It is regarded as one of Bahrain's main nightlife hotspots as it is also home to numerous nightclubs and bars.
It is also the site of Bahrain's largest mosque, Al Fateh Grand Mosque, which houses the National Library.
