Where to go for breakfast in Abu Dhabi

Appaloosa

This sports bar offers a “championship breakfast”, although judging from the amount of food, champions usually don’t eat it on the day they win the championship. Exactly when only traditional English French fries can do it, this is a thorough (fried) cultivation-featuring European specialty meats, fried mushrooms, potato cakes, toast and eggs. This is a good value hellofalotta banger.

Marriott Al Forsan, available from noon every day, 59 dirhams. Phone: (02) 201 4000, @marriottalforsan

Alba Terrace

Enjoy the unlimited breakfast on Alba Terrace, it is easy to see the sunny side. At any time between 7 am and noon, every day of the week, you can enjoy two hours of wonderful morning food for only AED 95. Highlights include French toast with blueberry compote, mashed avo and poached egg with seed bread.

Abu Dhabi Art House Cafe

The art on the wall, the art on the plate, the art in their hearts. This cafe aims to provide a welcoming experience, and their breakfast is no exception. They have a huge menu, but their famous shakshoka might be our choice for brunch. If you are looking for healthier foods, mixed berries, acai and granola bowls are another popular food.

Cafe 302

This excellent capital cafe has the blood of breakfast food in its veins.

Jones Grocery Store

As you would expect from the legendary gourmet chain cafe, JTC’s breakfast lineup is exceptionally strong. Our favorite must be the Farmer’s Breakfast, a powerful Persian feta omelette with smoked chicken, tomato chutney and spinach (54 dirhams). Until January 20, 2021, all stores in the UAE will offer a special French toast menu (from 58 AED). Take your fork out and eat a buttery crusty brioche with sweet and savoury (or both) toppings, such as maple syrup and crispy beef bacon; cinnamon poached pear and vanilla mascarpone; or Cheesecake, chopped toasted pecans, and mixed berry preserves. Oh la la.

Montauk Boutique Cafe and Restaurant

This is still in the “coming soon” trailer stage. But coming to Al Bateen later in February this year, Montauk Boutique Cafe & Restaurant is a self-described “Hampton-inspired” experience. This concept was proposed by Mariam Almansoori, the owner and founder of the UAE, and aims to provide a new place for coffee connoisseurs in the capital to choose their favorite, unpretentious luxury beer. What really challenged Abu Dhabi’s dining scene in this charming venue was breakfast. The most important meal on the menu of the day included avocado, beetroot, and cheese toast; Turkish egg with vanilla labneh; scrambled egg shakshuka; cream-soaked French toast; homemade granola with honey and berries; and Sesame bagel with cream cheese.

When it opens, the cafe will be located in Al Bateen and will be open daily from 10 am to 10 pm. @montaukabudhabi

Do not.Fifty Seven Boutique

This cafe is not shy to shake your favorite food out of the breakfast tree and surprise them. We are talking about truffle scrambled eggs, burrata and zaatar scrambled eggs, activated charcoal pancakes, hash brown Benedict and epic mini croissants and marshmallow cereals. Do not. FiftySeven Boutique is making breakfast for 3021 and we are disappointed.

Building 2, Al Marasy, Al Bateen Harbour, 45 dirhams. Phone: (02) 441 6100. @no57cafe

PJ O’Reilly’s

We will let you read between the lines what PJ’s “pig’s hair” breakfast may be referring to, but it can be said that it does work. Diners can customize the whole pig for this all-Irish breakfast, plus a cup of tea or coffee, for only Dh79. Available every Friday and Saturday. Because… you know… the reason.

The breakfast menu is full of bright, innovative and attractive taste experiences, such as cheese mutabel (59 dirhams), sweet potato breakfast pizza (59 dirhams), BELT croissants (bacon, eggs, lettuce and tomatoes) (59 dirhams), tahini avo toast (59 dirhams), this is just for smoldering appetizers.

Tasha

Tashas is another Abu Dhabi coffee shop with a very large brekkie energy. The concept originated in South Africa, but it already feels like part of the local structure here. The sublime interiors and the meticulous kitchen team make this restaurant a must-have for those who enjoy breakfast. The lamb sausage, which is part of the traditional breakfast (from 58 AED), is one of the best in the whole review. Highly recommend the Mariachi Breakfast Burrito (Dh76).
