I usually visit Wanderlust at Al Khawaneej Walk because I absolutely love their desserts, honestly, most of them are WOW! However, I recently tried the custard dessert and didn’t enjoy it. It just wasn’t up to their usual standard. Still, I’ll definitely keep coming back for my favorites!

Big thanks to Wanderlust Café for always making my visits so special! Here the coffee is truly on another level, perfectly crafted with so much care by the amazing barista Jason. Arvie, the manager, makes the whole experience smooth and welcoming, and sweet ..Jan is simply the best, always with a smile that brightens the day . The café itself is such a beautiful space, full of good vibes and cozy energy – the kind of place you don’t want to leave. Grateful for the love and effort the team puts into every detail. Can’t wait to be back soon!

The breakfast is nice @WanderLust, we ordered egg & cheese brioche and cheddar dusted croissant Benedict it is delicious. And for drinks we ordered signature cold brew and which is spanish latte & cold Americano I feel the portion need to be more and less ice. At last we ordered Cinnamon Roll and it was amazing, if you love cinnamon you need to order it. The atmosphere is nice with light sunlight. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Their spanish hot is on another level, you’re drinking a spanish latte but without condensed milk which is not very common in other places.

Pleasantly surprised with the coffee and breakfast. Had the breakfast sando and acai bowl. Oat milk provided as an option with my latte. Looking forward to trying the croissants and other coffee beans. Decor is plain and subdued but it gives a soothing and relaxed atmosphere with a skylight and shade indoors.
