Dubai is always on the edge of what’s trendy and new. Hippie-style restaurants and cafes have started popping up everywhere, pairing stylish decor and appetizing food.

Sip Coffee Like a Hippie

Cafes have been becoming increasing popular in Dubai, and now there is one for every taste. The most hippie of cafes in town has to be One Cafe by Life ‘N One. This unique venue is a must-try for anyone looking for the ultimate hippie experience. With inspirational quotes on all of its walls, yoga classes, and even a sign reading “If you’re not barefoot, you’re overdressed.” One Cafe by Life ‘N One is located in the yoga studio’s beautiful garden, and its Zen ambiance is captivating. Visitors even sit on the floor to eat their meals! The cafe’s menu offers “Food as Medicine” with a fully gluten and lactose free menu, and delicious smoothie options.

The Surf Cafe is the perfect place to grab a bite after a morning at Sunset Beach. One of the its main attractions is the variety of coffee options.
