Have you ever wanted to just spend hours chatting with your besties while eating everything and getting a great caffeine fix? We’ve rounded up some of the cosiest cafes in Dubai we want to hang out at all day:
1. Tania’s Teahouse
You’ll want to live at this adorable amazing two-storey villa near Burj Al Arab with tea-inspired puns (Hello Habib-tea) and girly décor. The cafe also offers a bunch of workshops and mindfulness classes. Or if that’s not your thing, you can always while away your day playing board games with your besties. Their gift shop is worth checking out too, with a load of tea-themed creations, jewellery and much more.
2. The Sum Of Us
The industrial style décor and vast open kitchen give this cafe an approachable and homey vibe. It almost feels like your living room. And the best part is they make everything from scratch! They bake their own bread and roast their own coffee and don’t even get us started on those next-level milkshakes!
3. Hapi
Located in cool and quirky Alserkal Avenue, this health hub has become one of our go-tos. There’s plenty to do after feasting on the famous organic beef broth. Share a great yoga experience with your friends in the yoga studio upstairs and play parkour too! It’s totally worth seeking out.
4. Tom and serg
We can’t rave enough about the brand new limited-edition Eggs Benedict at this quirky Al Quoz café. Share some with your fave squad before anyone else does! If you’re not an egg-lover, this cool café has other amazing delish stuff on its menu. Its industrial décor, free WiFi and great food, makes it a cool place to hang out with friends. It’s always filled to the brim with happy shiny people like you!
5. Comptoir 102
This très chic Jumeirah villa is perfect if you and your besties are all about style. From a new, cool Tse-Tse lamp or a Mizensir scented candle, there’s plenty of unique stuff to check out. And when you’re done shopping, get an energy boost from the fresh and fragrant coffee.
6. Friends Avenue
If the food alone doesn’t have you hooked, the artful coffee creations definitely will. There’s no greater feeling than feasting on delish bites and getting a selfie or a 100, with your squad. If you’re a healthy food buff and so are your gals, this is the place for you!
7. Appetite Cafe Al Quoz
Tucked away inside the A4 Space at Alserkal Avenue, Appetite Cafe Al Quoz is an awesome place to hit up with a friend(s) (the more the merrier!). Grabbing a cup of coffee or a bite in an Insta-worthy setting with free WiFi, huge work tables, cosy little reading nooks, and elevated pods for some R&R, is always a winner.
8. Roseleaf
We love this greenhouse-inspired setting. Feasting on single-origin specialty coffee and the sweet treats in leafy surroundings? Yes, please. This homegrown Dubai eatery has two more branches, but its much-loved Garden Centre location is my squad’s fave.
9. Ailuromania Cat café
Instead of sending all those adorable cat videos to your group chat, take your pals to Ailuromania Cat café and meet these feline friends in person. You can also grab a snack and a cup of coffee while bonding with your fave humans and cats. Who doesn’t love a good cuddle?
10. Arrows & Sparrows Café
Hang out up with your girls in this cosy, home-grown neighbourhood café in the Greens. You can catch up on all the goss while indulging in delish treats. For all you organic buffs, the organic coffee is incredible. And since it’s dog friendly, it’s the perfect spot to hang with man’s BFF.
