What to Eat at Mr Pastries How we choose these items We use AI to find praise and criticism of specific foods and drinks in a selection of Google reviews. For Mr Pastries, this list is based on 50 reviews, not every review of the restaurant. The score is positive reviews minus negative reviews. For example, two positive reviews and one negative review give +1. Each review counts once per item; neutral comments do not change the score. A zero score is not a positive recommendation. “Only neutral feedback” means there are no positive or negative votes. “Mixed feedback” means equal numbers of positive and negative votes. The quotes are examples of what people said, not every comment we counted. We use different reviews where we can. We normally show up to 10 foods and 5 drinks with non-negative scores. Items with the same score stay together. If a tied group would go past the limit, that group and the lower non-negative scores go into Honorable mentions. If an overflowing positive top tie would leave the list empty, we show up to 10 items from that tie and keep the rest in Honorable mentions. Foods and drinks with a negative score are under What to Avoid. Use this as a guide to what reviewers liked, not a guarantee that you will like it too.

Tips for a Better Visit
Check Payment. Check the bill and payment amount before leaving, especially after one customer reported 30 being withdrawn as 300.
Confirm Orders. For Talabat orders, confirm the filling and finishing details: one mishaltet arrived without the sugar it was meant to have.
Takeaway Plan. Plan to collect or eat elsewhere because a customer reported that no dining area is available.
Call Carefully. If ordering by phone or requesting car delivery, allow for service friction; reviews mention being ignored and poor phone handling.

The Bottom Line
Mr Pastries is a pastry and manakish spot in Al Khawaneej, with reviews centred on fatayer, Levantine pastries and pancakes. The clearest reason to consider it is the fresh pastry work: customers call out chicken-and-cheese manaqesh, Mohamara and cheese, and excellent pies. The menu also includes layered options such as cheese and honey feteer, pepperoni pizza and mishaltit with meat and cheese.
There is no dining area, so plan this as a takeaway or delivery purchase rather than a sit-down meal. Delivery has been praised as fast, but the delivery record is not completely even: one Talabat order arrived without the sugar expected on the mishaltet, while another customer described a knafeh delivery as arriving in very poor condition. Checking the order before settling in is sensible.
Service reviews split sharply. Some customers describe staff as respectful, helpful and cheerful, while others report rude interactions, unanswered calls, car-service problems and a serious payment complaint involving AED 30 being charged as AED 300. Prices are also debated: one customer paid 57 dhs for a small mishaltit with meat and cheese and called prices high, while others found them reasonable or excellent.
Verify the total and order details, then choose the specific pastry you came for.
