The Good Stuff
Menu Range
The menu spans several cuisines, giving office diners plenty of choice beyond standard café food.
Work Setting
A reviewer found it suitable for a quiet daytime business meeting and described the food and coffee as varied.
Coffee
Several reviews praise the coffee, including a balanced skinny cappuccino and a Colombian latte.
Fresh Smoothie
The Very Berry smoothie was specifically praised for tasting fruit-forward rather than diluted with water and ice.
Atmosphere
The café's bohemian décor, greenery and relaxed setting are recurring reasons reviewers enjoy spending time there.
Affordable Pasta
One reviewer found the food affordable and singled out the chicken Alfredo pasta as a favourite.
Tips for a Better Visit
Visit Off-Peak. Try a quieter time: one busy-day visit brought late orders and cold coffees.
Check Availability. Ask whether the fruit or toppings you want are available before ordering crepes or similar dishes.
Clarify Portions. If ordering coffee, check the size first; one reviewer found the quantity very small.
Check Your Dish. Review the plate when it arrives, since one pasta order was missing basil leaves and cherry tomatoes.
Compare Karak. The 2 AED karak is served in an espresso cup, so compare the small serving with your expectations.

The Bottom Line
Boho Cafe & Restaurant is a DIFC coffee shop with a notably broad, multi-cuisine menu. You can come for coffee and a giant croissant, try the chicken Alfredo pasta, or settle in for breakfast dishes such as French toast, crepes and eggs Benedict. The giant croissant-and-oversized-coffee combination was praised as flaky, buttery and large enough to share, while the Very Berry smoothie was described as full of berries rather than watered down.
The setting is a real part of the appeal: reviewers mention bohemian décor, greenery and a cosy atmosphere. One found it quiet enough for a daytime business meeting, and another described it as a serene working space. Service also receives warm mentions, though experiences are uneven.
That inconsistency is the main caveat. Reviews describe waits of 45–50 minutes, cold coffee, incomplete dishes and poorly executed eggs Benedict or shakshouka. Availability can also be patchy; berries, fresh fruit and jam were unavailable on one visit.
Portions may feel small, especially for salmon salad and some coffees. If you are visiting for karak, note that the 2 AED serving comes in an espresso cup. Going off-peak and checking ingredients and portion sizes before ordering should make the visit more predictable.
