The Good Stuff
Book corner
The book corner gives the café a more useful stay-and-read atmosphere than a typical grab-and-go coffee counter.
Work-friendly
A reviewer was helped to find a table with phone charging and was given an extension cord and charger.
Bubble tea
Bubble tea is a recurring favourite, including a refreshing wintermelon, black tea and tapioca combination.
Family treats
Soft-serve ice cream, cold drinks and a small children’s area make it an easy family stop.
Fresh pastries
One customer had a chocolate twist toasted for extra crispness and found it excellent; other reviews mention fresh cookies and cakes.
Tips for a Better Visit
Go mornings. Choose the morning if you want a quieter visit; one reviewer found evenings louder in the open café.
Ask toasted. Ask for a pastry to be toasted if you prefer extra crispness; a customer specifically requested this for a chocolate twist.
Check boba. If ordering bubble tea, check the pearl and ice balance, since one review says excessive ice stopped the pearls reaching the straw.
Allow opening time. For an early takeaway, allow extra time around opening: one customer arrived at 8:20 and waited another 10 minutes for help.
Bring a book. Plan to linger with a book or work; the café has a book corner and has been described as calm for revising.

The Bottom Line
Attibassi Coffee is a community café in Damac Hills where people come for coffee, bubble tea and a casual place to sit. The drinks menu stretches beyond espresso: reviews mention chai latte, smoothies, fruit juice, milkshakes and Turkish/Greek coffee. The bubble tea is a major draw, with strawberry and wintermelon combinations specifically praised.
It works well for a short work session or an informal meeting. The book corner, background music and charging help make staying awhile practical, while a small children’s area, soft-serve ice cream and cold treats suit families. A reviewer even received an extension cord and charger after asking for a table where they could charge a phone.
Timing changes the feel. Mornings have been described as quiet, but nights can be louder because the café is open to surrounding Carrefour traffic and children playing nearby. Food feedback is mostly positive, including toasted chocolate twist pastry, cookies, cakes and sandwiches, though one customer disliked a microwaved croissant.
Bubble tea quality has also been inconsistent in older reviews, with complaints about stiff tapioca, strong tea and too much ice. If you are driving in early, allow a little extra time around opening.
