I order Vienna coffee, which I didn't find in any other cafe in the Emirates. The coffee tastes a little sour which means it's very good. They have good options for breakfast mostly.

I loved Nightjar; for the food, coffee and the atmosphere. The staff are super friendly, especially Elvis. Elvis prepared me a 'flat-white' coffee and honestly it's one of the best I have ever had. The coffee flavours here are amazing, if you're a first timer here, go for Gonzo blend, that's rich in milky chocolate and nut flavour.

Very chill and cool place, the coffee was amazing which was made by the amazing baristas and the creme brûlée pancakes were perfectly sweet and balanced! Which I love because I don’t like overly sweet stuff. Definitely would recommend this cafe!
