Coffee 01
Espresso from 15 dirhams, a Spanish latte the regulars order by name, and a matcha bar deep enough to have its own section on this page.
Breakfast & brunch · Jumeirah Village Circle
Downtown Dubai's café gem, now open in JVC. Specialty coffee, a matcha bar with six creations, and a kitchen that runs from eight in the morning.
The house
Marasi House began in Business Bay and opened its second home at the foot of Zaya Hameni in JVC — under six storeys of hanging terrace gardens. Inside: curved glass to the ceiling, terracotta lanterns, a long counter, and a garden to look at while the coffee lands.
Espresso from 15 dirhams, a Spanish latte the regulars order by name, and a matcha bar deep enough to have its own section on this page.
Ten metres of curved glass, terracotta fringe chandeliers, greenery spilling from the ceiling, and a terrace under the trees. A room that rewards sitting still in it.
Eighteen separate Google reviews mention our staff by kindness rather than by speed. That is the metric we would choose if we got to pick.
Most ordered
Not a curated guess — these are our four best-selling items, in order, as recorded on our own ordering platform.
Matcha creations
Matcha is named in more of our Google reviews than anything else we make. So it gets a bar of its own — whisked, layered, and poured six different ways.
Almond, oat and coconut milk available on any of them. Add shots, syrups or protein.

The neighbours
I've lived in JVC for the past 12 years and passed by so many cafés, but Marasi House truly stands out as the best coffee spot in the area.

Really cute little coffee shop on the ground floor of an apartment block in JVC! Lovely brunch place — went back multiple times. The staff are so attentive, kind and lovely!

Went here frequently during a recent visit to Dubai. Staff were so friendly and accommodating, which we appreciated especially as we were with a 1-year-old. The food was incredible. So much variety.
