Allow Time. Build in extra time for breakfast or lunch, as one quiet Saturday morning still came with a stated 30-minute wait.
Check Availability. Ask whether your chosen dish is available before settling in; crepes were reportedly not ready to be prepared.
Share Dishes. For a balanced meal, consider sharing the shakshooka and croissant salmon, with sriracha and chilli flakes on the side.
Check Price. If ordering a V60, confirm the price first: one review specifically reported paying 42 DHS for it.

“42 DHS for a V60? Come one, you are not even a properly known coffee place to charge this amount”Google review · June 2025
The Bottom Line
MINT is an all-day bistro in Downtown Dubai inside Dubai Mall, and it is especially appealing when you want coffee with something more substantial than a pastry. Reviews mention the matcha, French toast, tiramisu and specialty coffee often enough to make them sensible starting points. The menu also includes savoury plates such as the avocado halloumi and egg open sandwich, pan-seared salmon and fresh sandwiches.
The setting is a real part of the appeal. Customers describe it as cozy, bright, clean and calm, making it a useful place to slow down after walking through the mall or meet for a relaxed morning coffee. The yuzu mango espresso tonic is a more unusual order, while the V60 suits people who are interested in brewed coffee rather than a standard café drink.
Service is less consistent than the food and atmosphere. Many guests found the team warm, attentive and helpful, but other visits involved staff overlooking raised hands, drinks that never arrived and breakfast waits of up to 30 minutes. Check dish availability and allow extra time if you are visiting at breakfast.
Also note that one review reported 42 DHS for a V60 and objected to the limited complimentary tap water.
