What to Do in Old Dubai: Our Guide

"Dubai’s coffee museum occupies a historic two-story Emirati home on an unassuming backstreet. Inside, you’ll find a labyrinth of tiny rooms dotted with artifacts from around the world, including old grinders, pots, and roasters, which have been collected predominantly from throughout Europe and the Middle East. Among the most impressive of the collection here is the 300-year-old jug-shaped clay coffee pots known as a "jebena," which were once used in Ethiopia, where coffee is said to have gotten its start." - Dylan Essertier, Laura Ratliff

As much as I was excited, my family was not. But after walking into the museum and disappearing for 20 min I had to come out and tell them what they will miss. Everyone loved the museum. It is located in the old part of Dubai and the building has been preserved as such. There are so many timeless pieces of how coffee was made in the past till date that it is jaw dropping. Time travel pf coffee and how this part of the world contributed is a lesson to learn. Museum also provides free coffee both Arabian and international flavors. The seating area is also very authentic looking. There is a top floor where you can explore- a literature room decked with coffee books, nice coffee bar, room with a this me travel poster etc. Ticket is very cheap.

During your visit to Dubai, experiencing the tradition of coffee making is a must. The museum is in the Old Dubai zone and costs 10 dirhams. You will get a coffee tasting and have the opportunity to taste Ethiopian coffee made by an Ethiopian lady. It will take approximately 1.5 hours or less to see everything calmly. Enjoy.

The Coffee Museum in Old Dubai is a small but wonderful place. It’s located inside a traditional-style building and feels a bit like stepping into someone’s cozy old home filled with treasures. There’s a beautiful collection of vintage coffee grinders, roasters, coffee bags, pots, cups, and old posters. The museum has several small rooms, each with its own charm. You can also find lots of interesting information about coffee culture and the history of how people started drinking coffee in different parts of the world. They offer two types of coffee for tasting, but honestly, the coffee isn’t very good. Still, the museum itself is absolutely worth a visit. The ticket is very inexpensive and you’ll need about 30 minutes to an hour. There’s a small café upstairs if you want to sit down for a drink afterward.

I spent close to 2 hours in the coffee museum and thoroughly enjoyed the experience! Each corner is beautiful and has lot of information about coffee, coffee machines, including the origins and how the drink evolved and became popular across the globe. There’s also a cafe in the top to just relax and have a coffee. Worth visiting. Staff are friendly too.

I explored the Coffee Museum and really liked the experience. The museum has two floors, and you get to try two different types of coffee: Ethiopian coffee and traditional Arabic coffee. There are many old tools and equipment on display that were used in the past for roasting and preparing coffee, along with plenty of interesting information about coffee culture and history. The entrance ticket is only AED 10, which is very reasonable for what you get. Overall, it’s a nice place to visit, especially if you’re a coffee lover or curious about its history.

One of the must visit stops in the Al Fahidi Historical District. Discover how history and tradition blend in one place. Taste the original coffee from Ethiopia and try Gahwa, traditional Arabic coffee 🌍🤎 Learn the story of coffee, from the first grinders, the evolution through time, coffee beans from around the world, old books, and all the epic decorations inside the museum 📚✨ Entrance fee: AED 10 (they prefer cashless) 💳

Fantastic little place. A welcome haven from the heat. They have a little shop in the front. But with the entry fee you get a couple of coffee tasting sample. It was brilliant. Inside the museum shows all about coffee, whether that's the beans themselves or grinders etc. 100% recommend visiting.

Located at a very beautiful historical part of the city by the creek bur dubai side. You can do alot more than just visiting thus museum by being in the area Back to the coffee museum - the updated for the last two years as it turned out entry fee is not free, but 10 aed And includes a small cup taster of either a local or Ethiopian coffee An interesting museum indeed, in a small local estate, tiny rooms with diverse titles and history of coffee There is also a retail shop at the entrance/exit
