Wonderful coffee. I didn’t come here in so long and I probably ordered another drink, and it was around 25 AED. However, today I ordered « Weekend Special » and yes, it tastes as incredible as I expected, but I shall say it’s somewhat pricey. I don’t think a coffee is ever worth 37, at least not these types of coffees. Also, it’s not like I am getting a biscuit on the side, or I am being treated as a fancy restaurant would treat me. So, if I had to choose, I won’t order this drink again and I will search for a cheaper option from their menu, if possible. Also, they are wasting some coffee beans as they are used to decorate the drink rather than being roasted and used for the drink. I don’t know if it is what increased the price or not, but it is definitely a waste... —————————— Tried a new drink today, the « La Rose » coffee, cold. I didn’t expect the cold cold to taste good and I believed the hot will taste better, but I gave a go for the cold one since it was hot, as I went to take the drink at 15h. I reduced the coffee shot from 2 to 1 and I wish they were able to adjust the rose syrup to fit well with the taste of 1 shot instead of 2 shot because it was too sweet and rosy which I believe ruined the drink and it’s opportunity to taste well. I can take some responsibility but they should also think for their customers. « Did the customer ask for reduced shots alone or also for it to be extra sweet? » if, which is in my case, only the first one applies, then they should reduce the syrup amount; nevertheless, if someone asked for both, then they can keep the syrup amount yet reduce the amount of shots.

This is a little cafe with limited seating. Coffee tastes just fine. The prices are somewhat high. This is an excellent takeout option if you love their choice of coffee.

Extremely convenient place and a genius model. It gives you the opportunity to get a specialty coffee-to-go whether you're on your way to work in the early morning, or trying to stay awake during your night shift. This place is open from 6 AM till midnight! Therefore, you don't have any excuse to skip your daily coffee. Besides the great location, it is so convenient that you don't even have to get out of your car. I visit it every morning to get a brain fix on the way to work.
