The Good Stuff
Beautiful Interior
The bright, airy design includes cosy seating across multiple floors and a glass-roofed upper area.
Signature Dishes
The Hamilton shakshuka, smoked salmon with asparagus and eggs, and French toast are repeatedly memorable orders.
Private Dining
A private room for six and several seating areas make the venue workable for intimate meals or occasions.
Generous Portions
Several reviews describe the portions as big or generous, including the family-friendly breakfast and kids’ meals.
Coffee Quality
Coffee is a strong point, from balanced Americanos and flat whites to Spanish lattes and coffee served with a cookie.
Dietary Flexibility
A diner with dietary restrictions said special requests were handled willingly and carefully.
Tips for a Better Visit
Go Early. Opening service was reported as calm and uncrowded, making it a good time for a quieter meal.
Check Eggs. If you need eggs well done, confirm the doneness clearly when ordering, as one diner received runny eggs instead.
Allow Time. During a busy visit, food took 20–25 minutes and table attention was delayed, so allow extra time at peak periods.
Choose Indoors. The rooftop has a better view but its mainly glass roof can feel hot; choose indoor seating if temperature matters.
Plan Parking. Allow time to look for a space, as one review specifically found parking difficult.

The Bottom Line
The Hamptons Café & Restaurant is a breakfast-led cafe in Umm Suqeim, with enough range for a long brunch, casual lunch or dinner. Reviews point to the Hamilton shakshuka, eggs Benedict, asparagus with eggs and smoked salmon, and French toast as worthwhile orders. The menu also includes Oriental and American-style breakfasts, seafood dishes and bakery treats.
The setting is a major part of the experience. It has three levels, cosy indoor sections, an outdoor terrace and an upper glass-roofed area with views. A private room for six is available, and an elevator helps with access between floors.
The bright, coastal interior suits relaxed breakfasts, coffee dates and family meals, while portions are often described as generous. Coffee is consistently well received, including Americanos, flat whites and Spanish lattes. Macarons, croissants and desserts also get attention, although one review felt the dessert selection needed improvement.
Service is usually described as warm and attentive, but busy periods have brought delayed table attention and food arriving cold or incorrectly cooked. For a calmer visit, consider opening service. The rooftop can become hot under its glass roof, and parking has occasionally been difficult to find.
If ordering eggs with a specific doneness, confirm it when placing the order.
