The Good Stuff
Peanut Passion
The Peanut Passion shake is repeatedly singled out, including as a refreshing post-workout choice.
Healthy menu
The menu includes healthy drinks and food, with reviewers specifically calling the salads tasty.
Coffee variety
One reviewer was impressed to find several coffee origins, including an El Salvador coffee.
Friendly service
Reviews consistently describe the team as warm, cooperative and accommodating, which helps when ordering quickly after the gym.
Relaxed atmosphere

Tips for a Better Visit
Post-workout. Try a protein shake or coffee after training; several reviews frame the café as a convenient gym stop.
Ask packages. Ask whether the Shape Shifter package is available if you expect to buy protein shakes more than once.
Check parking. Allow for the building’s parking changeover: the first hour is free, then parking becomes paid.
Take away. Plan for takeaway rather than a long café session, since seating is limited and the gym can be loud.
Custom shakes. If you have a particular nutrition preference, ask about creating your own protein shake.
Matcha caution. Matcha quality appears uneven in the reviews, so consider a coffee or protein shake if you want the safer first order.

The Bottom Line
Beans & Berries is a compact healthy café and smoothie bar on the 1st floor of Almas Tower, beside Fidelity Fitness Club in Jumeirah Lake Towers. It is especially geared to post-workout stops, with protein shakes, smoothies, specialty coffee and healthy bites. The Peanut Passion, YoBerry and Coffee Crown are among the named drinks customers return for, while one reviewer praised the Green Mission smoothie and another highlighted a coffee from El Salvador.
The strongest pattern in the reviews is service: staff are described as friendly, quick and accommodating, including when someone is rushing out of the gym. A wrap, salads, cookies and coffee also receive positive mentions, and one customer found the atmosphere relaxing. Set expectations around the space.
It is more of a small stand than a full café, with only two tables, and the nearby gym can be loud enough to make working difficult. Wi-Fi is not available according to one review. Parking is free for the building’s first hour and paid after that.
Pricing may feel high for some orders; one reviewer objected to paying 38 AED for a small strawberry smoothie. Matcha feedback is mixed, so first-timers may prefer one of the well-mentioned shakes or coffee drinks.
