Benchmark
If you love chic interiors, and fresh coffee brews with a speakeasy vibe, you can indulge in Benchmarak’s menu for real. With speciality coffees like expresso on the rocks, drinks like KoKo matcha, and the most scrumptious expresso cheesecake, it’ll have you begging for seconds, even thirds.

One Second
If you’ve been seeing a cold drink served in a silver cup, then most likely One Second has passed by your FYP. Serving it directly to your car, they offer a hugeee list of drinks to try. But we got sights on their current hot seller, the Iced Chocolate. Whew, locals have been driving by again and again for the drink. it’s a sign bestie.

Point Seven
Fresh out of the oven, is Point Seven. Opening just earlier this year, this pop-of-orange cafe made waves with its aesthetically pleasing beverages and we understand why. From earthy tones that match well to top signature drinks and the dreamy tiramisu 🎵cake🎵, it’s definitely a spot to enjoy and relax with your girlies.

Sesame
Sorry Jumeirah cafes, we found the new it-girl spot, and it’s called Sesame. Going for the clean vibe and aesthetics, this true dreamcore embodied the organic and industrial cafe design. What’s even better is their trio menu covering drinks, food and *yummy* deserts. Oh, and they have the most Instagrammable brick wall too, btw.

Narrow Specialty
If you’re staying a night in Sharjah, you have to try the Narrow’s sweet matcha. If you dig the industrial vibe, Narrow has it down. So while you’re enjoying the tranquil ambience and taking in the smell of super delish coffee and brownies, be sure to snap a few pics for the ‘gram.

Bird Cafe
Pack it up girlies, we found the best cafe worth the coin. Why? It’s affordable and it’s tasty. From Dhs5-Dhs10 cookies to classic drinks at just Dhs20, we’re definitely jumping on the next taxi to Al Madam. But wait, there’s more. They have the ✨creamiest✨ purple cinnamon rolls in the Emirate *yum!*

Pinch
BRB girlies, we’re sipping some on the s’mores hot chocolate at the cosiest cafe. Book girlies, if you drop by Jarir Book Store, be sure to drop by Pinch and try their Peanut Butter & Jelly Cheesecake. The drips are on point.

Home Bakery
Stop the car rn and turn around around. Home Bakery opened a Sharjah branch, and girlie we’re obsessed. Their Lemon Frosty is trending and suffice to say the hype is real, everyone’s flocking to Sharjah just for it. But don’t fret, they have other amazing lists on the menu for you to check out.
