The café has a relaxed vibe with clean, well-maintained seating and an attractive interior.
The tuna sandwich and chocolate babka give coffee visits a useful savoury and sweet option.
Customers praise the iced Spanish latte and iced vanilla latte for their distinctive, enjoyable flavours.

Choose Classic. Try the original matcha with Toby’s milk first; it was specifically recommended over the strawberry version.
Avoid Strawberry. If matcha quality matters, skip the strawberry version, which one customer strongly advised avoiding.
Adjust Sweetness. Ask for less sweetness in Toby’s latte or flavoured drinks if you prefer the coffee flavour to come through.
Expect Pickup. Plan to order at the counter and collect your drink by its order number rather than waiting for table service.
Check Allergens. Ask about bakery ingredients before ordering; one cookie was reported to contain peanuts without a product description.

Some customers waited too long or were served out of order; one reported waiting about 16 minutes for a hot coffee.
Table service is not consistent, and customers may need to order at the counter and watch for their order number.
Small tables placed close to neighbouring tables can make conversation less comfortable.
Several drinks were considered too sweet, while one unsweetened matcha was still described as watery and milky.
The strawberry matcha was criticised for sediments and poor quality, despite stronger reviews for the regular matcha.

Toby’s latte
“I tried Toby’s latte, which was good, but honestly nothing too special—especially considering the price of AED 30”Google review · January 2026
The Bottom Line
Toby’s Estate at Dubai Mall is a coffee stop in Downtown Dubai that suits visitors looking beyond standard mall coffee. The menu has several well-reviewed choices: a smooth flat white, a fruity cortado made with special-edition beans, the signature Toby’s latte and iced matcha. There is food too, including a delicious tuna sandwich and chocolate babka.
Matcha is a major draw, but the experience is not completely consistent. Some customers call the iced matcha the best they have had in Dubai, while others found the strawberry version sediment-heavy or the regular drink too milky. Starting with the original matcha with Toby’s milk is the safer move, and it is worth specifying your preferred sweetness.
The atmosphere is relaxed, clean and attractively designed, with music that several customers enjoyed. On the practical side, tables can be small and close together, and the café generally expects counter ordering and pickup rather than table service. Paper cups are used by some customers instead of proper mugs.
Prices are not positioned as budget-friendly in every review: one customer considered a Toby’s latte overpriced at AED 30. Bakery descriptions may also be limited, so ask about ingredients if you have allergies.
