Café restaurants in Abu Dhabi

  1. A

    Hediard

    This Abu Dhabi branch of the elegant French chocolatier and patisserie chain, established in 1854, has proven to be popular with Emiratis - the men love to linger and read the paper over lunch, while the wives like to drop in for coffee and petit fours between shops.

    Café du Roi

    Affectionately known as 'Roy's', this neighbourhood café is popular with expats and Emiratis alike, from academics calling in for a gossip over lunch to Emirati guys doing deals on their mobiles. The haloumi and zaatar croissant is delicious while the decent coffee is still the cheapest around.

  3. C

    Idiom

    Despite being on the radar for a few years, this hip eatery (around the corner from Roy's and opposite Tché Tché), with its minimalist design, is a breath of fresh air. They do delicious soups and a tasty dish of the day.

    Tché Tché
