They have vegan and gluten free options which was great👌 I had a Mekong chicken burger , Katsu chicken bowl and veggie rice wrap. The staff were okay. The food came fast and the food was amazing. I loved the creativity of flavors.

Coffee is fantastic too!

Have been several times to sample the cronuts, breads and coffee. The service has always been exceptional with staff who have great knowledge on the brewing methods used. Fresh baked goods are consistently good and appealing! Keep it up guys

Nice, cosy place. Absolutely healthy and a bit overpriced but should worth it due to its rich ingredients. Sometimes you may wait a bit to be seated. Coffee was not extraordinary. Overall I would highly recommend this healthy concept

A great and cozy place to have a coffee, breakfast, dinner, and sweet, the staff was very friendly and served us very happily, the prices were very reasonable, we tried their iced latte and it was amazing. It worth another visit to try their main meals.

Chose to have a relaxing lunch here on the weekend amidst the crowds of MOE; tucked away nicely so you can see the hustle and bustle around you and still enjoy a quiet bite to eat. Great coffee and brew options, but very lacklustre food. A promising menu marred by unbalanced flavors - overly tart or surprisingly bland; was not impressed at all. Luckily service was very friendly and attentive, which may warrant a second chance or happy to just stick to a nice cup of coffee instead.

Nice casual place. The food is of good quality, portions are well sized, all of this for a reasonable price. They have very nice sparkling water "Dolomia" which complements perfectly the meal!

I walked into it for breakfast because it was busier than the other restaurants nearby. The menu with a healthy ingredients but no images of what to expect when asked the waiter asked me to check their instagram pictures. The coffee was great but very tiny cup, my order was a green taco with sprouts, avocado, kale, seeds and eggs. The sprouts did not have a nice taste, more earthy musty flavour. The Kale was fine but the leaves was not separated properly from the thick stalks. Otherwise it's edible. My friend ordered the scrambled eggs, and was not impressed with the flavour. It seems they have just added healthy ingredients without paying attention to the flavours. I have to say this is my first time to eat a an unpleasant healthy breakfast. 2 stars for the good coffee in a small cup.

Wow! Positively surprised and impressed with the quality and taste of the food there. Went there for breakfast and had the avocado on sourdough with 2 runny poached to start with. The bread was delicious, and the ricotta was a great original touch to soften the flavor. Then followed-up with pancakes with bananas and spiced maple syrup which were some of the best I've had in Dubai. The pancakes were sooo fluffy! And to add to that, really friendly waiters/waitresses make you feel at home. Definitely recommended.

Really good spot to have some food in the mall. Like the new menu and Thai feel to it. Staff are much improved and any service issues seem to have been ironed out. Save room for a little cake if you have a sweet tooth, love the lemon doughnuts and the Crounuts are a must try.

The quality of food is really good here. They serve brunch until 4pm, the beetroot hummus dish is amazing. The salmon dish is also really good. Jerk chicken is also really nice. Cemex coffee of Colombia has a great taste. The service could be better, but the behavior of the waiters and waitresses are really nice. Great place to dine.

It’s a nice place in the Mall of Emirates, coffee was great but tiny and the pastries were fresh and tasty. Due to reduced service most of the favorites especially the egg dishes were unfortunately not available. Quality and service was great, prices unfortunately on the higher end, especially the extras.

The place has character. The servers are very pro & exceptionally attentive to customer service. The menu is diverse, tilting healthfood, niche market direction, but not so far left of center as to require being a vegan hippie to enjoy. The coffee is on par with the play on naming. And, they offer various discounts to those of us who call Dubai home. Easy to understand why it is a household name. I did find it, um, "interesting" that they are selling glasses of water though. Most places that are this trendy have realized that fine foodie hangouts give away water for free. Complimentary. Grátis. Like that. Just a thought.

A great new find in Dubai. This restaurant offers great options for vegans. The breakfast menu does not have many vegan options, however they are very happy to adjust meals to make it Vegan. There is a separate vegan menu for lunch. The vegan offerings are healthy and mostly oil free so it is great for Whole Food Plant Based diets as well. Great staff and amazing coffee.

Common grounds is a great place for breakfast and/or lunch and one of my favorite in MOE. Menu is diverse and all ingredients are just super fresh, very tasty and the menu changes every now and then with some great new inspirations from the kitchen team. The grading would have been 4 stars butunfortunately one star subtracted for the fact that portions are becoming smaller though the prices remain the same...more places in Dubai start doing this for the sake of their profit and especially for regular customers noticeable.Service is always great with a smile, come in time as it gets packed at popular times

The menu is very limited but the food is prepared very well and delicious. I think it is a little bit overpriced but I'm a cheap fellow. You should give them at least a try and decide for yourself.

I have been going for weekend's breakfast for few years and really like the place. Firstly meals are very good and tastes fresh. Plus staff is much more original & friendly then comparable cafes! Really like my coffee with Lamington cake (with Sunrise bowl and Veggie tacos), hope soon the cafe would be back to usual!

Me and my wife went here twice in three days which should say a lot about this place. Both times we went for breakfast and both times the food was exceptionally good. This is matched by really good service and a nice setting. The price is a bit on the higher side but I never felt that we were overpaying considering the experience (except the water!!!) I highly recommend if you're looking for a good breakfast place.
