Everytime I arrive in Dubai, Alma is my first stop as I walk through the door of the complex that smell says it all... DEVINE... love their galão and the pãozinho which is always fresh the baker (forgot his name) is a true gem.. the staff is supper friendly and food WOW WOW WOW
Have never been disapointed & always make a point to try different things--- the closest to Portugal one can feel here..
High quality products together with a kitchen where everything is fresh and done in the same place (no frozen stuff)! The bread makes you feel you're somewhere in Portugal and the "pastel" is delicious! And above all, the staff is kind and generous, which makes you feel at home! Real Portuguese Portugal � "Alma" (soul) in Dubai! A must go, definitely!

Without a doubt a place to go. Good coffee, great pastel de nata, great food! A true Portuguese coffee shop in the heart of Dubai.
Amazing customer service and amazing food! I definitely recommend the pastel de nata (custard pie) and any kind of bread! Everything was delicious and the place is really nice! I'll go back for sure :)
Awesome Portuguese food, sweets and coffee! Great and friendly staff that keeps you going back for more!
Adorei! Decoração lindíssima! � Café e pastel de nata autênticos! Excelente para matar as saudades de Portugal.�
Happiest 1st birthday to our dearest Portuguese coffee shop, Alma!Many more wonderful years to come!One of my family's faves in Dubai!Parabens!Muitos felicidades!🌟✨🎂💛
The fact that i am a 'Portuguese-Goan' means i am familiar with how authentic Portuguese food tastes like! I have also been to Portugal several times and i can vouch that the 'vibe' you get at ALMA 560 is genuinely Portuguese - The food, the aroma, the people, the portuguese language being spoken by the customers ... all adds to the ambience of the place. The staff are very courteous too. I wish there was a branch closer to my end of town so that i could frequent it!
Great pastéis de nata great Portuguêse coffee (Delta). Place for great snack and home feeling.
Is mazing cafe with delicious pastry ! Strongly recommend!

I visited Alma Cafe just for their pastel de nata since I’d heard so much about it! The last time I had an authentic Portuguese egg tart was at the pastel de nata centerpiece of Lisbon - Pastéis de Belém. Let me just say that Alma Cafe’s pastel de nata is the closest I’ve ever had to the original one in Lisbon. It comes hot and fresh out of the oven with that crispy filo pastry and delectable warm custard filling, perfectly browned on the top. Sprinkling a bit on cinnamon on top takes this to the next level, given you like the aroma of cinnamon!
Best Pastei de Nata in town by far!!! We had an amazing lunch, the plate of the day which was Octopus with baked potatoes and Portuguese bun and it tasted just like my dad used to make it, real authentic portugues polvo con patatas, topped with the best dessert, pastei de nata!! Definitely worth a try for anyone looking to have a bit of Portugal 🇵🇹 l in Dubai!!
Too good to be true. I loved the food and the atmosphere, just one bite and you will think you are in Europe... in a cosy bar in Lisboa. I love this place, as much as I loved visiting Portugal years ago. Recommended by heart.
With love for pasteis de nata and Portuguese desserts we finally dropped in at this treasure located in the gold and diamond park. We picked up pasteis de natas for us and few friends, we also tried the coffee and fell in love with. Definitely will drop by for breakfast sometime soon. We made friends with Natasha who took good care of us and patiently explained to us about the coffee beans they use. Guys this is a must try.
I’ve recently made a 5 mais dish order and I’m absolutely amazed with all the professionalism and quality of the food. It’s truly the Portuguese taste in our table!
I would like to start by mentioning how the owners promptly presented solutions to the fact that the delivery to my area wasn’t available. They suggested us to take a look at the menu and use the Careem box option to pick and drop our delivery. This was by far an excellent suggestion and in less than 45min we had the food in our table!
I would also like to highlight that as a Portuguese and therefore Portuguese food lover, the meals were absolutely delicious and the portions are very well served. We order 5 portions for 6 people and it was more than enough.
Overall everyone had an amazing dinner thanks to Alma 560 cafe!
A very big obrigada to the entire team who made this Portuguese dinner possible and very yummy !
P.s.:
if you’re missing egg tart in SG and in Macau, Alma cafe to the rescue! Pastel de nata taste the same as the portugese egg tart in Macau, especially when its freshly baked. They have 50% off in their pastries after 6pm, but excluding this pastel the nata 😜 outside seating is also available for those who want to enjoy this cold weather. 😁
Amazing portuguese cafe in Dubai. I started with Caldo Verde, a traditional portuguese soup with all flavours. Then I had a tender roast octupus and I finished with a crunchy Pastel de Nata (cream custard). Just an amazing place!
Gold and Diamond park is my office location, so whenever there is no lunch box, its Alma cafe stopover with colleagues. We usually have either tea or coffee which is a perfect refreshment.
Amazing food and amazing service. Authentic Portuguese food and snacks and the interior decor is just like Portugal. A nice quiet and calm environment. I will try best to be here on a weekly basis for the pastel de nata and a drink!
I love small independent businesses in general and this one is a hidden gem. I had a tuna sandwich which was really good and the pastel de nata was to die for - it had just come out of the oven and was just the right amount of sweetness.
They have interesting other sandwiches made with Portugese bread and interesting baked goods so I will definitely be visiting again in the near future.
Service was quick and friendly!
Amazing Pasteis de Nata, baked freshly right before your eyes. Very kind and polite staff, some of the cakes i have tried werent as good as they looked, i think the only speciality there would be Natas, coffees and maybe a salad.
Excellent quality and the variety of pastry in special the Pasteis de Nata, the expresso coffee, and the delicious taste of the traditional Portuguese soup - Caldo Verde!
It is highly recommended, even just to try it once and you will feel a small part of the Portuguese Culture.
Lovely little hidden gem cafe at a lovely place. Near to metro and plenty of parking around. Might be difficult to spot it without stumbling upon (might not even enter) or through recommendation. Love the famous tarts (pastel de nata), well done but slightly too sweet. Steak sandwich (not in the menu) was simple but pack with flavor. Mushroom w cauliflower soup was quite balanced in flavor. Coffee was fine. Service was homely. Definitely be back for breakfast.
Alma 560 was one of those cafes that I had zero expectations from but completely surprised me! It’s a hidden gem in Gold and Diamond Park. Alma is a Portuguese Cafe with cute bright interiors. Apparently, their best sellers are the Pastel De Nata, Portuguese egg tart pastry. I did try them and a lot more bakery items. Full review on the link below
TO be frank, I have yet to visit Portugal, but I’m no stranger to the ever famous Pastel De Nata or egg tart pastry. A humble dish, with a great story behind it, it is prepared using, milk, eggs, sugar & cinnamon and best had with a cup of coffee. So, when I heard that there is a cafe in Dubai serving authentic Portuguese pastries how could pass on that? Alma 560 is a quaint little cafe, serving authentic Portuguese pastries and food, it’s tucked away in a corner area of the Gold & Diamond Park so be sure to look carefully as you can miss it in the blink of an eye 😛
Amazing hidden gem, totally authentic Portugese food. The owner is passionate about his cafe and it really shows.
Perfect place to go if you are craving Pasteis after a trip to Lisbon!
Loved this cute little gem today. Quiet ambience, great staff, very well priced and of course the best Pastéis de nata in Dubai! Definitely will be coming back here for more of the menu.
Charming little place, if you blink you'll miss it. Serves a small variety of Portuguese savory and sweet dishes. Went there in the afternoon, had Mazagran, an iced coffee with oranges which was surprisingly very good and a molotof cake, which has the texture somewhere between an angel cake and a marshmallow, also surprisingly good. Highly recommended.
If you're looking to take a few mins away from your work place to just relax and snack on something tasty along with your type of coffee while scrolling through Instagram via their super fast WiFi access - this is literally the best place to go in Gold & Diamond Park.
Super cute place and absolutely love the ambiance!
Great little cafe in Gold and Diamond Park with delicious coffee and food - must try the Pastel De Nata, they are really really fantastic!!!!

I am blessed to be working 2 doors away from Alma. Nothing pretentious, just warm & cosy is what you get at this cafe. The decor inside the cafe includes little provincial touches while the al fresco dining area is a wonderful opportunity to soak in the sun, even if it’s only during the DXB winter. Staff are friendly & helpful & you can often catch the owners for a friendly chat.
They have a variety of sandwiches, salads & pastries, as well as coffees & teas. The ingredients are always fresh & the quality good. The bread is rustic & baked in house & reminds one of loaves selected at your local baker.
But the piece de resistance is the pastel de nata - flaky layers of pastry & smooth sinful egg custard ..... freshly baked & dusted with cinnamon .... a tiny taste of heaven. There is also a chocolate & a large tart variation ..... but, call me a purist, I prefer the original. Friends from Portugal gave a verdict of ‘just like home’. They also have a 6 pack of the little treats which is a perfect for a last minute dinner invitation.
Se és português, aproveita e vem cá. Matar saudades com um caldo verde excelente, ou um pastel de nata. Não tem nota 5 por uma simples razão: os empregados não são portugueses. Não tem aquela “alma” portuguesa da cozinheira gorda a falar mal para ti... Contudo, um excelente sítio para matar saudades.
If anything fits the bill for a Hidden Gem, it's got to be Alma560. Their pastel de nata (Português egg tarts) are nothing short of authentic, having been introduced to them in Portugal and Macau (an ex-colony), I assure you of their authenticity. Their other desserts such as their almond pie and nata pie are also sinfully delicious, as are their coffees. One stop by this boutique cafe with an egg tart and a macchiato will definitely liven up your mood, and you can sit back and read through a novel in Português as well and while away the day. Outdoor seating if you're a fan of the sunlight. The only trouble is you can't see this cafe until you enter the office block of the Gold and Diamond park; hence truly a hidden gem. Prices: certainly not cheap but that's what you've got to pay for high quality authentic treats at a cozy boutique cafe like this one.
Amazing Portuguese coffee shop. The new Delta coffee is a big plus :)
Try the custard tarts (pastel de nata) with cinnamon powder on top, simply amazing.
The other pastries are also good and tasty.
A place to visit every week :)
LOVE LOVE LOVE! So good having authentic Portuguese treats available in Dubai. Best of all they're prepared by a fantastic Portuguese Chef. This is the real deal.
Each time I go to Alma it feels just like being in a cafe/bakery Back in Portugal. All the bread and pastries are freshly baked, they have an excellent coffee, the place is very cosy and remind us a traditional Portuguese courtyard. The service is very friendly👌. It's definitely the best place in Dubai to find a truly portuguese cuisine.
Great food, environment and experience. A great show how Portugal can be showed over seas with a great culture inside this great space. Without any doubt I recommend to anyone.
The one and only Portuguese real bakery in dubai! Best pasteis de nata......and the bolas de Berlin are to die for. The ambience is great, parking free, very easy acess from SZR.
Love this place!
Lovely Portuguese food, nice family place I highly recommended for breakfast and meals. Near Emirates mall with a well balance price vs quality.
Nice and cozy coffee shop that brings me back home. Typical food, like "caldo verde" and "pastel de nata".
Feel a little of the soul of Portugal, good food and good vibes.
Always a pleasure to come back to Alma and find a cosy and homy environment along with the fresh best Portuguese flavors! A must go wether you are or not familiarize with Portuguese cuisine.
Amazing place .... feels so good to be back home ... the smells the taste... and all the set up and environment.... and of course the super friendly and happy staff... well done 🙏🏼👏🏼
Nice and cozy coffee shop with great atmosphere that brings me back home - Everything is freshly baked, the quality of the ingredients is super as most of them are imported from Portugal.
Alma 560 café is a great and cosy place where you can truly enjoy the Portuguese traditional bakery treats. Everything is really fresh and tasty. All the time I am missing the Portuguese flavours I pass by even for just a coffee and a delicious egg tart. I highly recommend this place. Is a piece of home away from home...😉.
Amazing tastes of Portugal, always friendly staff and super fresh food. Easy parking area too! I make this a weekly stop, from the soup to the sandwiches, coffee and pastries, a true gem!
Authentic portuguese café atmosphere, feels (and tastes) like back home!
Welcoming, friendly staff, making it a little bit of Portugal in Dubai, unmissable!!
The most amazing place to enjoy Portuguese food in Dubai. If you have the opportunity go to Alma 560 Cafe and try the "Pastel de Nata". You going to feel involved by the authentic Portuguese cuisine! Enjoy!
A taste of Portugal in Dubai. Food coffee, good pora food, fresh baked bread which you can order to go and great ambience! You will love this little hidden gem in Dubai ♡♡♡♡

I have been to Belem where the original Pasteis de Nata (Pastel de Nata) are from. Well, these ones are even better. Unbelievable!
You must come!
Cute Portuguese cafe with a light breakfast and snack menu. Great coffee and friendly staff.
.....................………......................
Nice Portuguese environment, from the decoration food, music ambience and staff, everything have a special touch. It's a good place to have a proper Portuguese breakfast, a light meal for lunch or a afternoon/evening snack. Please do try the pastries, specially the custard tart egg, wich will melt in your mouth. You will be easily delighted with the coffee, sandwiches and soups wich will take you to Portugal in a few seconds.
Excelente serviço, very nice staff. Its a little bit of Portugal pastry in dubai. Fantastic pasteis de nata. The toasts are also amazing and as it's seem soon they will sell portuguese olive oil one of the bestselling in the world.
Been here to meet a friend and we ordered a sandwich with their custard tarts that is TDF (To Die For). Their staff are also very accommodating. 😊 We recommend it 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
We visited this lovely cafe last Thursday after the CMA concert and it was the only cafe open till late. We received a really warm welcome. We had some wonderful warmed Portuguese custard tarts (Pastel de Nata), and really good coffee. This is a much needed eatery in the Gold and Diamond district and is a short walk across from the main building. The shop also sells lovely cork items from Portugal and also coffee. Worth a visit and a warm welcome is guaranteed.

(تمت الترجمة بواسطة Google.) مقهى برتغالي صغير رائع موصى به من أجل لصق دي ناتا الخاص به ، وهو جيد جدًا - قاعدة مقرمشة وقشارية مع حشوة بيض حلوة وكريمة. هناك عناصر مخابز أخرى متوفرة من الخبز إلى المعجنات ، تكملها بعض الحساء والسلطات والأطباق الرئيسية الخفيفة بالإضافة إلى القهوة وبعض أنواع الشاي. لقد جربت أيضًا خبز جوز الهند الذي لم يكن مميزًا بشكل خاص مقارنةً بـ Pastel de nata ، لكن الاختيار العام المعروض يبدو جيدًا بشكل عام للعثور على بعض العناصر التي تعجبك (ويجب عليك تجربة Pastel de nata لأنه أفضل ما لدي حاول في دبي). الأسعار ليست رخيصة بشكل خاص هنا ، لكنها اكتشاف خاص جدًا لـ Pasteis de nata في دبي.
توجد أماكن جلوس داخلية وخارجية بعيدة أو بها شاشات بين الطاولات. كونه مقهى صغيرًا في مبنى أكبر ، لا يوجد موقف سيارات مخصص ولكن يوجد موقف سيارات في الشارع بالإضافة إلى محطة مترو قريبة.

Great little Portuguese cafe that was recommended for its pasteis de nata that's very good - a crispy and flaky base with a sweet, creamy egg filling. There's other bakery items available from bread to pastries, supplemented by some soups, salads and light main dishes as well as coffee and some teas. I also tried the coconut bread which was not particularly special compared to the pastel de nata, but the overall selection on offer generally looks good to find some items you do like (and you should try a pastel de nata as it's the best I've tried in Dubai). Prices are not particularly cheap here, but it's quite a special find for pasteis de nata in Dubai.
There's indoor and outdoor seating that's distanced or has screens between tables. Being a small cafe in a larger building, there's no dedicated parking but there is street parking as well as a nearby Metro station.
