The Bottom Line
This coffee shop is chiefly a destination for the setting. Customer reviews describe seating at The Pointe with views towards Atlantis, the waterfront and the fountain show, making it a useful stop for sunset, a quiet coffee or a break while waiting for the show. Outdoor tables are especially appealing in cooler weather, while the indoor glass-side chairs give a strong view when it is hot.
There is more than plain coffee on offer. Reviews mention an iced chocolate drink, white chocolate chestnut late, pumpkin latte and coconut milk latte, along with an avocado chicken wrap and hibiscus drink. One customer also recommends iced green tea with strawberry and lemonade.
Staff are often described as polite and helpful, with drink recommendations receiving specific praise. It can work as a study or remote-work stop: one reviewer spent four to five hours working there, and another calls it usually quiet. That said, drink consistency is not guaranteed.
A nitro cold brew reportedly took over 20 minutes and six attempts, while other reviews criticise cappuccino and specialty-drink quality, so a simple espresso may be the safer order. Check your cup size on the bill, and note that the shop reportedly has no toilet. Parking may cost AED 20 per hour unless the bill is validated.
