7 desert cafes that are making a comeback for the cooler season

If you couldn’t already tell, we are beyond pumped for the cooler season. And one of the greatest indicators of temperatures dropping in the emirate are when desert cafes reopen for the season. Make no mistake, these aren’t your regular desert cafes. These are ones that come with a side of a show to go along with your piping-hot latte. Fancy a ride on the desert buggy or perhaps upon a desert-dwelling camel or even a horse? They’ve got that, too. These are desert cafes done the Dubai way. Here are 7 desert cafes in Dubai that you need to head to this winter season. A post shared by H I D D E N (@hidden_dubai) Imagine an evening out by the desert, with endless dunes for as far as the eye can see and a star-speckled night sky with a cool breeze that just pulls it all together. This is exactly what you can expect at the Hidden Cafe in Al Marmoom – large golden dunes that make for the perfect idyllic spot for pictures, a great blend of food and beverages, camel rides, dune buggies and even the occasional show that happens later in the evening. Which means your evening isn’t just limited to snacking around the campfire – they’ve got the entire experience mapped out down to a T. Not to mention you also get to bring your pets along with you. Where: Al Marmoom, Dubai When: Sunday to Thursday from 4pm to 1am, Friday to Sunday from 4pm to 2am Contact: @hidden_dubai A post shared by 1 Degree Cafe ☕️ (@onedegree.ae) Can’t wait for the ‘winter jacket season’ and want to make the trip this weekend? Here’s another cafe that’s reopened, offering up the ultimate, perfect in-between vibe. One Degree Cafe is tucked within Mushrif Park and features some of the most aesthetic setups in the region, framed by Palm trees and dunes. So if pictures for the ‘Gram’ are something that’s on the agenda, then this spot might just be it.
