The coffee was so bitter. This isn’t the Costa Cappuccino I am used to. Bread was stale, and chewy. And one of your staffs prepared our coffee after using the cleaning materials (broom and disinfectant spray). Staffs were not pleasant. Very disappointing.
Horrible. Not a specialty coffee. I have a better coffee latte at Mc Donald’s. 25dh for that thing

Paid parking. BEST MATCH IN DUBAI same taste every time i take it with oat milk. Milk toast is really good. You can walk by the water canal close by and rent bikes. Staff are fun.

The eggs Benedict were so buttery and yummy, i love my eggs medium and they were cooked to perfection, the avo toast was also soooo yummy and flavorful and the cardamom bun was so soft and delicious but please DO NOT order the cheesecake pancakes they are not for human consumption idk if it was the riccota or the blueberries but it was regrettable (the pancakes itself)

A gorgeous restaurant with a nice variety of items. We had salad bowls and they were both so fresh, beautiful plated, and absolutely delicious. Staff was also extremely wonderful and attentive. Definitely sit out on the patio if you have the option!

Seriously good chai, friendly staff (Anny is AWESOME and made our day) and not one, not two but LOTS of chai options that are vegan and lactose intolerant friendly 🙌❤️

One of the best food spots we’ve been to! This was phenomenal!
The iced karak was divine. The breakfast bowl was one of the best things I’ve ever had. My boyfriend loved his keema wrap, full of flavour!
Will definitely visit again when we’re back.

Great find. I loved the Colombian beans for the V60. it was fruity and refreshing. My wife enjoyed her Ethiopian beans which was the right amount of acidic. Tiramisu was fresh and nice, and it wasn't too sweet. The service was fast and friendly. Just like all Dubai coffee shops, the prices are exaggerated, but compared to other coffee shops, the coffee and service makes it worthy of another visit.

Really nice place but my comments are that you do not have coasters for drinks? You use napkins.. it is kind of cheap.
You do not have simple drinks available on the menu, example: watermelon juice.
The scanning menu tag is dirty.
Nobody by the door to welcome you or tell you hi or whatever.
Atmosphere is nice, very chill, it was good in general but easily could be better. Thank you

Best milk-dipped french toast i ever had. Creamy, cheesy, sweet. Coffee was superb as well and so was the granola bowl. Also the interior is a feast for the eyes!

Both savory and sweet options are amazing. It's difficult to recommend a single order because everything I tried was perfect 👌

It was a great experience, the French Toast is unique so delicious

For me, the milk was too much, I would recommend to have it on the side

This place becomes my first destination in Dubai, the French toast is to die for literally, I have never tasted anything better, their cappuccino and v60 were also really good, the staff was very friendly and cooperative, but the chairs weren’t comfortable at all, the place is really tiny.

However,I can’t wait to go to Dubai to revisit 🔥

-There was 12 staff on the counter and non of them came to take the order, we had to go there to order.
-The coffee is very bad and light like no caffeine in it even though I ordered double shots.
-The atmosphere is very loud.
-The tables are very close to each others.
-The dessert was ok not bad.
Definitely Not returning here.
This cafe is the perfect location for a coffee with a view date. Find your perfect seat with a ski dubai view and enjoy your coffee. Staff was friendly and helpful. Recommend this place for a relaxing time.

The Sum of Us is a beautiful hidden gem with amazing hard working staff, delicious and full of flavor dishes that kept me coming for years. If you want to eat real food, I mean earth goodness as intended, this is the place. Love spending early morning hours sipping on my V60 coffee. The coffee is another story. Let me say this, if you are a coffee lover, TSU has its own coffee roasting, tasting and packaging! Quality is superb 👌🏾.

I found The Sum of Us to be a lovely breakfast spot, with its inviting atmosphere and delicious food. However, I couldn't help but notice that the place was incredibly hot, and it seemed like the air conditioning wasn't turned on. Despite the discomfort, I still enjoyed my meal and the overall experience.
Best food and Karak for sure ! I loved as well the Lotus milkshake you should try it !

Nice momos with chutney
Excellent coffee!! I can really taste my beautiful Brazilian coffee beans in my flat white oatly!! The only thing is please ask for Extra Hot beverage, mine was only moderately warm! There is not a lot of parking but choose your time wisely! Other than that, hidden coffee gem in Khawaneej, Absolutely recommend!!

Ask for "what we have" menu as most of the things listed in their menu were not available. Ice tea was actually warm. I first thought it's some twist to their recipe but then asked them and they changed it. Whatever were able to order out of the menu was OK.

Another local coffee shop with great coffee, selection of pastries and atmosphere.
Don't miss the matcha 🍵 and dips french toast 😋
Parking is the only issue you might face during peak time

Nice and small cozy cafe to go and chill
I had:

If you are looking for something quick bites or drinks tapri is the ideal place. This kiosk type outlet offers you selections like samosa, pakora, rollls or even momos to take away or having there which are freshly made and authentic nepali with Indian fusion delicacies. They also serve fresh juices, lassi and ice creams. Their specialty is masala chai or karak chai in typical Arab language. Good food, good service. Highly recommend !!

Coffee (cappuccino) was okay and the cake was super sweet. It is okay for occasional but not a regular visit. Also quite pricey for such quality.
Came here for coffee and desserts, tried their French toast with maple syrup and the other French toast cream Brule with strawberry inside, desserts were quite tasty. The V60 and flat whites were very good. Service was excellent. Paid Street parking available around the shop. Overall was ok. Will come back again.
Nice cafe with friendly service! Delicious food and nice tea.

I had American coffee, it was HOT, good taste and aroma. The staff are really friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.
On the plus side, you can get a good view from ski Dubai.
There are comfy chairs and high seats.
I didn't order any sweets so no opinion on those.
I also left my wallet there, but they kept it safe till my next visit.

Highly recommended for the coffee and the view!
It has a strategic location in the mall as it looks over the ski area. You can enjoy the penguins show while having coffee.
The staff is very friendly, variety of options and they have plant based milk.
It is a bit noisy but some people go their for work or studying.
Finally, do not forget to use the app to get free coffee later.

This is one of the most amazing spots for a coffee shop inside a mall.

There’s the ski Dubai as view and you get to chill in that corner where you can sit, observe, and perhaps do other things like reading or working on your laptop.

Chaos around is technically experienced as being inside a mall but it’s a place to chill regardless.

You can try it out!

Such a cute place for karak and quick bites to eat. I love the fact that they have vegan karak (try the coconut flavor!) and an out of the box food menu.
I have previously ordered from them the PB&J sandwich that was delicious and tried the egg bun today that was warm and fluffy.

The cinnamon french toast was just so delicious, so light and soft, not too big, so worth the calories!
Karak tea gets a thumbs up too 👍
Nice little place at Box Park.
Next Door Cafe is a great Cafe close to Jumeriah Beach Road.

It’s a nice vibrant feel with diner style bench seating inside and street seating outside.

It’s offered a range of coffees and hot beverages. If you have a sweet tooth your well caters for at Next Door Cafe as there is a wide range of cakes and pastries to suit everyone’s sweet tooth.
The coffee served is nice and for those lactose intolerant or dairy free Next Door Cafe has a some nice options available.

The service is great and the staff polite and attentive, service with a smile.

Next Door Cafe is a nice place to relax and grab a coffee fix.

Tried their new flavour Ginger spice today. Expected bit more of the flavour but couldn’t taste it much though. Would not recommend to try this.
But ye costa’s coffees are always good along with carrot cake.
3 stars are for the super courteous staff and seating next to ski Dubai.

Located near Sheraton hotel. Built with nice industrial decor. Tried the eggs Benedict and french toast. The eggs came on a crunchy bread that provided the right texture against the soft eggs. Serving size was medium...I've had bigger eggs benedicts at other places however it did not fall short on taste. The french toast was delicious and came with extra sauce to use as per need

Almost a year later and I returned again to TSOU for breakfast. This time I had the Big Breakfast and Shakshouka along with their Batch Brew coffee. The food was excellent and serving size quite sufficient. Rounded of breakfast with tiramisu pancakes.

Highly recommended to visit for breakfast

Used to be a regular here last few years, but recently the quality has dropped; both of the coffee and service. The selection of beans is also not great. There is Society cafe right across which has great service and great coffee.

Caramel Brownie Cheesecake



Next door cafe sells caramel brownie cheesecake. Write a review that attracts more customers

If you're a fan of cheesecake, caramel, and brownies, then you're in for a real treat at Next Door Cafe. Their caramel brownie cheesecake is a heavenly dessert that will have you coming back for more.

The cheesecake is perfectly creamy and rich, with just the right amount of sweetness. The brownie crust is dense and fudgy, adding a delicious chocolatey flavor that complements the cheesecake perfectly. But what really takes this dessert to the next level is the generous drizzle of gooey caramel on top. It adds a delightful sweetness and a lovely caramel flavor that is sure to make your taste buds dance with joy.

Whether you're in the mood for a decadent treat after dinner or looking for a special dessert to celebrate a special occasion, Next Door Cafe's caramel brownie cheesecake is the perfect choice. So head on over and indulge in this mouthwatering masterpiece - you won't be disappointed!

One of the many cozy cafes along the Jumeirah. They definitely have a great selection of breakfast delicacies and coffee selection.

I had tried the Avocado Toast with poached egg, zaatar croissant and flat white. For some reason, I felt that the portion size is small compared to the pricing.

Overall, the experience was absolutely phenomenal as the taste and ambience of the place is amazing. The staff were very friendly to talk to. I would highly recommend this cafe 😊.

I ordered piccolo and strawberry brulée, the coffee was amazing and if you’re a strawberry lover you should definitely go for this dessert. The place is cozy and a bit small.
This is our favorite coffee shop wherever we go. We have been to Costa numerous times they have great coffee and a good selection of foods to have with it. This place has a lovely atmosphere located in a particularly good place within the mall of the Emirates.

You will never go wrong coffee-ing@Costa! The lattes are made to perfection.... hot enough, just enough foam, and not bitter!

The good coffee place for me.
This is a place for the local favourite Karak chai and drinks with some basic burger type fast food. It's a kiosk in the middle of box park and it seems that they are open since last 1 yr, which I didn't know. They have a few tables in front of the kiosk and it's clean with some small flower pots on top. I liked the casual but nice environment.
My order was a Hot chocolate at 15 dhs with some additions of marshmallows and whipped cream with chocolate powders sprinkled on it for an additional 5 dhs. It was quite good looking and tasting nice.
Can be used for a nice stop over and casual passing of time.
I compared piccolo.
Same price 20 AED
Farmers almost no acidity XO little acidity.
Both same heat you can drink it directly.
Fast service for both.
Friendly staff for both as well.

So the only different is your taste.
Top tea place

Delicious coffee. I tried the XO ice shaken based on staff recommendation and it was delicious! It has several layers of flavor with a pleasant tarty taste from the coffee beans and hints of caramel and more that I can't quiet pinpoint.

The nutella cookie with sea salt was really good too although slightly softer than my preference. Perfect balance of sweet and salty. Probably one of the better cafes within miles around.

The only downer is that the cafe is small so it's not ideal for meeting up with bigger groups of friends.
Smart XO concept -just like the game- speciality coffee boutique with a cozy atmosphere. Welcoming staff & a limited number of desserts with a twist; some of which are tiramisu brownies/saffron cheese cake, classic brownies & chocolate chip & blonde cookies.
