Excellent Property nestled between the old Dubai (Bastakiya) with old world charm. Great artifacts and best of all the whole place smells of coffee. Lastly they have a full functional coffee shop upstairs. Must Visit
The Museum is a fascinating journey of Coffee through nations, cultures, process and equipment delivering us to present day.
The collection of artifacts and memorabilia some of which date back to the 16th century or were fashioned from munitions cases from WW1 is excellent.
There are opportunities to interact with coffees from different origins through tasting the freshly roasted and prepared coffees at the on site cafe. Finally, there's the people who support the facility and are knowledgeable in the facility, the museum pieces and of course the coffee.
A very insightful and enjoyable visit.
Located in the "Al Fahidi" area, which is one of the most pleasant areas in Dubai, this small museum presents the coffee making process across ages and countries.
The setting is worth the detour, information and items are interesting, admission is free and I recommend the small café that is in.
Al Bastakiya/ Al Fahidi is one of the oldest residential areas in Dubai which is worthy to be seen. Coffee Museum is a part of this area and introducing interesting items of coffee making process history. No entrance fee. Small coffee bar 2nd floor is an opportunity to try coffee brewed in a different ways
A beautiful museum and a place in a wonderful historical atmosphere tells about everything related to coffee and utensils brought from the past to the present and from the east and west and there are beautiful sessions to enjoy the taste of coffee Egyptian and Ethiopian and Western
Great info, but more so a great coffee experience upstairs with a professional barista serving fourth-wave specialty coffee roasted in house.
The coffee had run out (!) when we visited so we couldn't try one of the coffee experiences. Charming but not worth making a special journey.
The most informative museum about coffee - from the history of first invention of coffee as a drink to lift your energy to the invention of decaffeniato . Explore the different tools used to produce the coffee, each separated into different rooms. A specially arranged Ethiopian corner will be presented by a local lady. You can try the traditional coffee or also enjoy a different brewing method at the cozy bar upstairs. Museum is for free and coffee price is worthed. You can stop by just for a coffee while handwriting your Dubai post cards, or learn more about the locals from the friendly stuff.
A cute little gem of a place , round the corner of the Dubai Museum in the Al Fahidi complexIt's right next to the Arabia Tea House.. a great place to stop and have a good cup of Turkish or Ethiopian coffee.. the best part is free entry.. learn about the coffee trade here
If you are Coffee lover then you must visit the Dubai Coffee Museum at Al Fahidi Heritage Village. In Dubai, usually nothing is free including drinking water but rarely things are free too. So, it's free to visit Coffee Museum. It contains the collection from almost all the countries of origin like Ethiopia, Honduras, Vietnam, Colombia, Rwanda, Kenya, Peru, Sumatra, India, Yemen, Brazil, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Mexico, & Jamaica etc. You shall definitely enjoy your trip indeed.
Great historic building, with tonnes of educational value. Certainly learnt plenty about coffee! Good fun for everyone. Free entry and good amenities, couple of local restaurants. Hard not to enjoy it. Worth walking around the whole complex and shops.
If you like coffee and its history, this is worth a visit. Their barista knows his stuff as well.
Great museum to explore the global history of coffee including its bean secretion, roasting, and drink preparation. Can also taste coffee made from techniques around the world! Excellent reprieve from the heat as well
One of Dubai's gems. Blade grinders, burr grinders, drum roasters, fluid bed, and tangential roasters. Beans Oh sweet coffee beans from around the world. And coffee! Siphon coffee, filter coffee, press coffee, vacume flask coffee, espressoS, machiattoS, CortadoS, and perfectos. Sweet, delicious, invigorating arabicas. Dark, somber, and rich mouthfeel arabicas. Ohhh glorious the day they opened this one!
I learned quite a bit about coffee. I really enjoyed that I was able to try so many different methods of making coffee.
I am not much of a museum type of person, but this place is special. As my friend came with a visit to Dubai, I had to plan some sightseeing. That day we roaming around Al Fahidi area (Dubai Museum, Bastakiya), and Coffee museum was a must do item in our list, as we were already in this neighborhood.
The entrance is free, the building is small but lots of rooms with hundreds of exhibits related to coffee. The owner of the museum is a lovely man, unfortunately he didn't speak English much and my knowledge of Arabic is very poor :) You can not only try different types of coffee there, but also buy some to make it yourself at home, what we did (the choice was Ethiopian 😍)
So if you are a coffee lover, it a place is to be.
It's really interesting place to know about the Arabic coffee culture.
Highly recommended for who have opportunity to been in Bastakye recovery area, Dubai.
Nice museum. Its simple but a joyful. Coffee bar need some improvments
Amazing Museum of Coffee with various tools from 200 years for making coffee. You can find grinders, beans, pots, filters, coffee cooking devices, and tons of pictures for a easy understanding of coffee ritual.
The ambiance is very nice, the smell of coffe is every where, a place where u can have authentic coffe and relax after a long walking day in the sun. They serve all types of coffee in the second floor and there's a kids area as well. Would be even better if they included more details and accessories about the coffe history.
Quite interesting place where you can learn the coffee history through guidance from very polite people.
Good variety of coffees also served here using quite fascinsting machines.
This is a fascinating place. The guides were so friendly and knowledgeable. Lots of really interesting information. Loads of things I didnt know. All the staff were so friendly and helpful. Sat at the coffee bar and tasted lots of different coffees. Great experience. Highly recommended. especially for people who love coffee but dont know much about the whole coffee process
