Dubai’s dining scene is full of over-the-top creations; think gold-dusted desserts and sky-high brunch spreads, but sometimes, nothing beats a perfectly buttery, flaky croissant (There’s even a giant one that serves 8 people, and yes, it did make this list!)
Whether you like them plain and crisp, stuffed with almond cream, or paired with your morning flat white, here are six of the best places in Dubai to get your croissant fix.
This homegrown favourite is a hidden gem for those serious about their viennoiserie. Birch Bakery’s croissants are everything you want them to be: crisp, layered, and rich with cultured butter flavour. It’s advisable to arrive early because they often sell out by mid-morning.
Location: Al Quoz
Straight from London’s Borough Market to Dubai, Bread Ahead is a must for pastry lovers. Known for their pillowy doughnuts, they also make an excellent classic croissant, the kind that shatters perfectly with every bite.
Location: Multiple locations including Mall of the Emirates, DIFC Gate Avenue and City Centre Mirdif
Bkry takes croissants seriously, offering inventive seasonal flavours alongside the classics. Whether you go for a simple butter croissant, or something filled with pistachio cream, it’s a treat worth slowing down for.
Location: Al Serkal Avenue, Al Quoz
Minimalist and stylish, Pekoe pairs great tea with equally great bakes. Their croissant is light, buttery, and best enjoyed with one of their fragrant oolong or matcha lattes.
Location: Al Serkal Avenue, Al Quoz
With several locations across Dubai, Risen Café is a reliable go-to for flaky, golden croissants. Their almond croissant is a fan favourite - just the right balance of sweet filling and crunchy top.
Location: Multiple locations including Dubai Marina, Barsha Heights and Business Bay
Bakerist is the talk of the town for one very big reason (pun intended) - their giant croissant that serves up to eight people. Perfect for sharing (or not), it’s buttery, golden, and utterly indulgent. They also offer smaller classics, but the oversized version is the true showstopper -true Dubai style! Location: Dubai Hills Mall
