Renowned UAE name Saddle Café is to open in Doha this year, showcasing the regional growth of the UAE-born specialty café brand.
It will open at Centro Mall, Rawdat Al Hamama and will be the first location in Qatar for the brand – marking a significant milestone for Saddle Café, bringing the Emirati-born concept to new audiences. There are currently branches across the Emirates, as well as in Riyadh, London, Cannes, Saint-Tropez and Courcheval.
Founded in Dubai in 2017, Saddle has developed a loyal following. The new Qatar café will open in partnership with Al Mana Holding and will bring a “refined, design-led space that reflects the brand’s clean aesthetic and warm, welcoming spirit”.
Centro Mall is one of Doha’s newest lifestyle destinations. Saddle Café will boast an indoor space that adds a contemporary café to the mall, based on the brand’s popular Al Barsha branch in Dubai.
The menu will include a selection of specialty coffees alongside the brand’s signature offerings, including items like the Spanish latte, pistachio milk cake, avocado toast and sourdough breakfast sandwiches. There will also be plates such as eggs benedict, truffle mushroom omelette, crêpe rolls, crème brûlée French toast, katsu chicken bowl and alfredo and truffle pasta.
“Expanding into Qatar is an exciting step for Saddle as we continue to grow across the region,” said Mohamed Matar Al Falasi, Founder of Saddle Café. “Doha is a dynamic and fast-evolving market and we’re proud to bring our Emirati-born café experience to a new community. Each new location is an opportunity to share our approach to hospitality, quality and design in a way that feels both authentic and locally relevant.”
