The Good Stuff
Pistachio croissant
The pistachio croissant is repeatedly praised, including one review calling it one of the best croissants ever.
Relaxed setting
Reviewers describe a peaceful, elegant atmosphere with comfortable indoor seating, outdoor tables and soft music.
Friendly service
Many guests mention welcoming, quick service, with one regular noting that staff remembered favourite orders.
Coffee choice
The café is praised for cappuccino, flat white, iced latte and V60 coffee, giving coffee-focused visits plenty to explore.
Yacht stop
Its harbour location makes it convenient for breakfast or a quick meal before a yacht tour.

Tips for a Better Visit
Go early. For a cooler outdoor breakfast, one reviewer recommends arriving around 9 am, before the heat builds.
Check availability. Ask what is currently available before settling in, as one visit found four or five selected dishes unavailable.
Allow time. If you have a yacht departure, leave extra time for food: one reviewer found drinks arrived quickly but the food took longer.
Try indoors. Outdoor seating is weather-dependent; one review says sitting outside is only practical in winter, while indoor seating is spacious.
Check timing. Breakfast service reportedly ends at 2:00 PM, so confirm the breakfast window if you are visiting later.

The Bottom Line
Delizie Caffè Gourmet is a harbour-side Italian café in Dubai Marina, and the setting is the main draw. Sit indoors or on the terrace overlooking yachts, the Marina skyline and, from some angles, Ain Dubai. It works well for a quiet breakfast, coffee stop or bite before a yacht trip rather than a destination for a substantial dinner.
The strongest food mentions are the pistachio croissant, choux pastries, pinsas and Italian coffee. Cappuccino, flat white, iced latte and V60 coffee all receive praise, although one guest found the latte and cappuccino too cool. Breakfast and light dishes such as salads, sandwiches and avocado toast are available, but several reviews say the menu lacks variety and proper main courses.
Service is often described as friendly, quick and attentive, with some guests returning for the welcoming atmosphere. Still, there are reports of unavailable dishes, incorrect orders and inconsistent handling of a dietary request, so it is worth confirming details before ordering. Prices reflect the yacht-club location: one iced latte was reported at 30 AED, while a breakfast-style order for two totalled 272 AED.
Arrive around 9 am for a cooler morning terrace, and leave extra time if catching a boat.
