The Good Stuff
Cosy setting
The warm, calm atmosphere is a major part of the appeal, whether you are stopping for coffee or settling in for a meal.
Laptop friendly
Several reviews describe it as a workable place for remote work, including one visitor who used a laptop there.
Fresh breakfast
Breakfast dishes such as the vegetable omelet and egg-and-cheese sandwich were reported as delicious and freshly made.
Quick service
Service is often described as fast, with one review noting that food arrived at a pleasantly quick speed.
Coffee craft
A reviewer specifically noticed the coffee art from the baristas, alongside repeated praise for the coffee.
Generous portions
Portions are described as generous, which helps balance the cafe's small footprint.
Outdoor tables
The cafe has outdoor seating, including tables that one review says are well maintained.
Tips for a Better Visit
Request adaptations. If you have dietary requirements, ask when ordering; a reviewer says the cafe caters to special requests.
Avoid busy spells. Consider visiting outside busy periods because limited staffing has caused longer waits for at least one customer.
Bring your laptop. For a work-friendly coffee stop, bring your laptop; reviews specifically mention being able to work from the cafe.
Check bathroom needs. If a clean private bathroom matters, plan ahead because one reviewer reported having to use an unclean public toilet.
Try parking. If you are driving, check the spaces in front of the cafe; one family-lunch review found enough parking there.
Choose coffee carefully. The pistachio latte was not a hit for one reviewer, so ask staff for a recommendation if you are trying a new coffee.

The Bottom Line
Baker Street Cafe is a compact, cosy cafe in Jumeirah Lake Towers that suits breakfast, a light lunch or a coffee break. The menu has plenty of review-backed comfort food: jacket potatoes, vegetable omelet, salmon-and-avocado toast and sandwiches. Several customers also use the cafe as a quiet place to work from a laptop.
The strongest pattern is freshness and generous portions. Reviews mention freshly made omelet sandwiches, good bread, tasty salads and quick service, while the coffee receives steady praise, including a note about skilful coffee art. The atmosphere is calm and warm, with outdoor tables as well as indoor seating.
It is genuinely small, though: one reviewer counted hardly five tables inside. That can matter at busy times, and another customer experienced a longer wait when staffing was limited. Service is generally described as friendly and efficient, but a few reviews report abrupt or disrespectful staff interactions.
The public bathroom is another practical drawback, with one reviewer calling it unclean. If you have dietary requirements, ask when ordering, as a reviewer says requests can be accommodated. Drivers may find parking in front, and laptop users have a clear reason to linger.
Pricing is not fully documented, but one review mentions paying 35 AED for a coffee and another describes prices as slightly above average.
