7.1Locals Score / 10

#8 of 12 Cafés & Coffee in Dubai

Directions

A homegrown community cafe in d3, open since 2016, serving wholesome, mostly-from-scratch food with a laid-back creative crowd of designers and freelancers. Good for a nourishing bowl, a long coffee and laptop work in an airy, plant-dotted space. The caveat is that the setting overlooks the d3 car park rather than anything scenic, and it can get sleepy outside peak hours.
