The Good Stuff
Desserts
Tiramisu, French toast and several cakes receive strong praise, giving dessert lovers plenty to explore beyond coffee.
Spanish Latte
The hot Spanish Latte with Brazilian beans was described as the reviewer’s best Spanish latte yet.
Atmosphere
The old-timey decor, peaceful mood, music and indoor fountain create a distinctive setting rather than a plain coffee stop.
Outdoor seating
Outdoor tables are repeatedly noted for their romantic feel and views, particularly during the cooler winter season.
Parking access
One review found many RTA parking spots in front of the cafe, making arrival relatively straightforward if you pay through the RTA app or SMS.
Tips for a Better Visit
Reserve ahead. Book an indoor table before busy periods; one reviewer said the cafe was often crowded and recommended making a reservation.
Visit earlier. For a quieter visit, try daytime or an earlier afternoon slot rather than the busy evening period.
Check availability. Check what is being served before paying for parking or settling in, since breakfast was unavailable when the cook was absent.
Pay parking. If you use the spaces in front, pay the RTA parking through the app or SMS before ordering.
Try V60. Coffee-focused visitors should consider the V60, which received stronger praise than some espresso drinks.
Allow time. Build in extra time for food and freshly prepared items: a cheese croissant was reported to take 10–15 minutes.

honey cake
Honey cake is a named bestseller, though one reviewer found it rich and heavy enough to finish only half.
pistachio cake
Pistachio cake appears among the dessert options, although one customer preferred the other cakes because they do not enjoy pistachio.
Common Concerns
Slow service
Several visits involved long waits, including a 30-minute wait for French toast and delayed service even when the cafe was not busy.
Order errors
Reviews mention wrong or missing orders, including chocolate cake arriving instead of pistachio and an iftar menu served incomplete.
Crowding
Evening and weekend visits can be busy, with waiting lists, limited indoor seating and difficulty finding an outdoor table.
Pricing
Some customers considered the coffee and desserts expensive, especially where portions were small or the quality felt average.
Noise
The indoor music or fountain has been too loud for conversation in some visits, while outdoor tables were described as wobbly.

The Bottom Line
My Specialty Coffee is a Jumeirah cafe for coffee, cakes and a lingering catch-up rather than a quick grab-and-go stop. The clearest draws are its V60, a hot Spanish Latte made with Brazilian beans, and desserts such as tiramisu and honey cake. Several customers also mention French toast, with one calling it incredible.
The setting does much of the work. Reviews describe old-timey decor, peaceful indoor seating, outdoor tables with a romantic view, and a Burj Khalifa outlook. The cafe is spacious enough for groups, while the outdoor area is especially appealing in cooler weather.
Service is often described as friendly, and one reviewer appreciated receiving a helpful coffee recommendation. There is a less polished side. Waiting times can stretch, orders have occasionally been wrong or incomplete, and breakfast has reportedly been unavailable when the cook was absent.
Evening and weekend crowding may mean a reservation or waiting list; daytime visits are more likely to be calm. Some customers also found the coffee or desserts pricey, and the indoor fountain or music has sometimes made conversation difficult. For parking, reviews mention RTA spaces in front of the cafe, with payment required through the RTA app or SMS.
Check food availability before paying, and allow extra time for freshly prepared items.
