Dubai restaurants open for daytime dining over Ramadan – 2019

Daytime Ramadan Dining - Dubai Restaurants - FooDiva

For the seventh year on the trot, our annual guide of independent non-hotel restaurants in Dubai open for daytime dining IN over Ramadan is here – including establishments confirmed to serve more than just juice in the day.

Like always, the criteria for inclusion (and exclusion!) are:

  • STAND-ALONE restaurants and cafés (outside hotels) open for dining IN from breakfast to sunset. This year we have a record 239 outlets (excluding food court joints in the malls which are also open).
  • We have specifically NOT included establishments in hotels and clubhouses, where it’s business as usual with all these restaurants open including those operated by third parties.
  • We’ve also steered away from those open just for delivery and take-away.

We’re lucky to live in a tolerant society, so please be mindful of our Muslim friends, and patient with waiting staff who may be fasting. All have confirmed their opening hours, but it would be wise to call up in advance. For a similar guide on Abu Dhabi, click HERE. For where to brunch over Ramadan in Dubai, check out Mr & Mrs Brunch’s guide HERE. And lastly, HERE’S a comprehensive insight on local etiquette over the holy month.

If you come across any other outlets, then please do drop us a comment on this guide, or via your favourite social media channel using the hashtag #RamadanDining, as we will update the round-up regularly.

    How about Bluewaters?

    • FooDiva May 5, 2019 at 8:01 am

      Outlets in all hotels, Bluewaters included are operational as normal – hence why we have not included hotel restaurants. I am not aware of any other daytime openings outside of Caesars Palace, but if you come across any, please let me know.

      • MW May 9, 2019 at 3:44 pm

        I’m at Home Bakery in D3 right now.
        They are only doing takeaway not dine in.

        Heading to Craft Cafe, they are takeaway only and only doing dine in after 4pm.

        • FooDiva May 12, 2019 at 11:14 am

          Have updated thanks. Many outlets like to lie to us just to make it on to the list – ludicrous!

      • Alifiya May 19, 2019 at 10:06 am

        Please Add Mitts & Trays to the list of Daytime Dining spots situated in Bluewaters and City walk!

        • FooDiva May 19, 2019 at 4:13 pm

          Could you please let me have daytime opening hours? Thanks.

          • Alifiya May 23, 2019 at 9:32 am

            Kindly add Mitts & Tryas to the Daytime Dining list, find the information below as requested –

            Scrumptious Breakfasts and Wholesome Lunches at Mitts & Trays this month!

            Serving an array of breakfast options including egg benedict and French toast, and a wholesome selection of salads, sandwiches, starters, soups and mains such as Cola Glazed Lamb Chops and Risotto Alla Milanese for lunch, both Mitts & Trays’ venues in City Walk and Bluewaters will be open from 9AM this Ramadan. The home-to-wholesome spot also offers fresh desserts and baked breads, along with a dedicated kids menu.

            For further information, visit http://www.mittsandtrays.com or call +971 4 451 0023 (City Walk) +971 4388 3999 (Bluewaters).

          • FooDiva May 24, 2019 at 2:11 pm

            And closing time?

  2. Helena May 6, 2019 at 2:52 pm

    Love this list even more after spending a couple of years in the nearby country-that-should-not-be-named where nothing is open daytime during Ramadan!

    I was pleasantly surprised today to see Costa at Waitrose on Al Thanya open for dine-in behind screens, as well as several outlets in Springs Souk.

    • FooDiva May 12, 2019 at 11:15 am

      How times are changing Helena! Yes all the usual Costa, Starbucks etc are open too. As for Springs Souk when I called them up, they did not have confirmation. Good to know they are open too 🙂

    Hi many of the spots under D3 are take away only

I’d love to receive your feedback, so feel free to comment any time.
