The Grey Al Wasl - Coffee Lounge & Bar

Amazing experience at The Grey Al Wasl! I had a wonderful time at The Grey – the atmosphere was absolutely stunning: calm, stylish, and perfect for both relaxing and working. The food was beautifully presented and delicious – I especially enjoyed the omelette and avocado toast. Everything was fresh and full of flavor. The service was impeccable – friendly, attentive, and professional. I truly appreciated the warm and welcoming vibe. It felt like a perfect spot for a leisurely brunch or a peaceful coffee break. Highly recommended – I’ll definitely be coming back!

What an amazing place to have friends gathering. Food is delicious and beautifully presented. The hot beverages are amazingly created. Service is excellent! Charcoal oat latte and crushed avocado & pouched eggs are highly recommended for breakfast.

Definitely a spot for rich people to dine in. Every car parked outside was so luxurious and every diner pretty much had a 6 digit luxury watch. Acai bowl costs 75 AED and croissant 40 AED. Toilet has Aesop but that’s basic at this price point. Dining area at the sofa are pretty much for lounging and hard to eat without bending pretty far forward. Unfortunately the price doesn’t get you any complimentary water but coffee ain’t cheap either so I had to rely on my trusty water bottle with water from the airport.

Had a fantastic breakfast at The Grey Al Wasl! The truffle scrambled eggs were rich and creamy, and the chipotle egg benedict on black croissant was deliciously unique with a nice smoky kick. Stylish ambiance, great coffee, and friendly service—definitely worth a visit!

Stopped at The Grey for breakfast with the family and really enjoyed the experience overall. The food was excellent — we tried the avocado toast, soufflé pancakes, omelette, and charcoal croissant. The avocado toast, in particular, stood out as one of the best we've had — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. We also tried the Oatly chai, which wasn’t to our taste, but it's a nice dairy-free option for those who enjoy it. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming, which added to the pleasant atmosphere. That said, the seating setup could use improvement — the low benches and tables weren’t ideal for comfortably enjoying a full meal. Also worth noting: there’s no dedicated kids' menu, which might make it a bit tricky for families with younger children. Overall, a stylish spot with quality food, but with room for small improvements to make it more family-friendly.

The Grey is easily one of my favorite brunch spots I keep coming back to. Their food is consistently amazing, and the coffee is solid and reliable. My absolute go-to orders are the Big Breakfast and the Halloumi Bowl, high-quality ingredients really do the trick. The service, while friendly, could definitely use some improvement. It’s not always fast or attentive, and sometimes little details get missed. That said, the staff are pleasant and welcoming, which helps make up for it. The ambience is moody and atmospheric, true to the name “The Grey.” It’s quite different from the typical bright and airy brunch places you usually find. The darker, stylish vibe makes it a unique spot whether you’re coming in for a casual brunch or a more laid-back, slow morning. Overall, if you appreciate great food and don’t mind minor hiccups in the service, The Grey is absolutely worth visiting.

I love The Grey! The halloumi bowl and syrniki are my absolute favorites – so tasty and well-prepared. What truly makes this place special, though, is the staff. Everyone is so kind and attentive, creating a warm and friendly environment. A special shoutout to Gerber, who always goes above and beyond to make sure guests feel at home. Highly recommend!

The honey comb latte was a little too sweet, but quality was soo good. All the food items were super unique and probably the best cafe, “vibe” and food wise. Visit this place every single day that you’re in Dubai!!
