3dhs kuboos veg sandwich. A brilliant quick snack. You get to fill your sandwich with a samosa.. a potato vada or a dal falafel. With addition of fresh vegetables and a spoonful of green chili chutney your taste buds can't feel better.

Very old joint in Bur Dubai for quick snacks and its really best in town with very less price.
And always fully crowded people are standing out side , taking take away also and taste really amazing.
Its a ultimate place for a quick snack. Its located at Bur Dubai and its a 30+ year old shop. Here all you get is snacks like Falafel, Samosa, Alu Bonda and Sandwiches made out of these 3 snacks. The menu is limited but I bet this is the best place you get tastier snacks. And the best part is that you get this snack for less than 5 AED. Loved this place. I recommend its a goto place in Dubai.
Well the falafel we had ordered was good and delicious. I recommend you to go to Farisian cafeteria and eat the falafel there. I would have given 1 more star if they would put Tahina in the falafel.
A 42 year old shop that serves one of the most simple yet tasty falafels that is filled with 2 crispy and freshly made falafels, green chilli chutney and vegetables. Every time I visit meena bazaar, it is a ritual to go and have these falafels and potato bondas. It is better to have the falafels as soon as it is made since they get soggy if kept for a while. You'd have to wait for less than 5 minutes, no matter how crowded the shop is.
Kept hearing a lot about this place and finally decided to try it. I had Samosas and Falafel Sandwich which was really great that too for a reasonable price. The chutney inside the sandwich was so tasty that i decided on buying one more for me and take one for my roommate.
This place is a must try and i think I'm going to come here regularly
The cost economic vegetarian cafeteria, especially while coming from office. Can be satisfied even spending lesser than 10 Dhirams. I seen people comes from other emirates comes specifically for this cafeteria
Farisian Cafeteria offers only vegetarian food located in Meena Bazaar. Provides food at reasonable price with good taste. I tried Falafel Sandwich of which taste is very good and I satisfied with their taste. Good experience I got.

Mc Donald’s , KFC etc.. you have a potential of multiplying business in case you acquire Farisian cafeteria !! Amazing falafel sandwich !! Small , stand and eat !! You will keep coming for more !! Supreme taste .. Yummmy !!
This is one of the oldest cafeteria in meena bazaar and serves the best falafel in Dubai. This place is very famous and always crowded. They sell falafel at very reasonable price. They have aaloo boonda,samosa and tikki falafel. I love samosa falafel,always hot and fresh and after so many years they are still consistent in taste and quality of food.
A must must try place when you visit meena bazaar.
One of the best #meenabazar cheap and gratifying eats is persiancafeteria filafil sandwich.
Before you cringe, it is not your average tahina dripping Arabic style , they have their own style and it has caught on to people for years ! 😍
My order always goes like " one filafil sandwich, less sandwich, more chutney"
Btw it's for AED 3! I know many of y'all love this ! Show me ✋
#hiddengemalert
Amazingly small snack restaurant.
5 minutes walk from the Al Fahidi metro station in the Meena bazaar
Juicy falafel wraps and yummy Aloo bondas are to crave for. Super budget friendly and amazing service. Give it a try and I'm sure you won't be disappointed 😊
Hidden gem in Meenabazar. VFM place in Dubai for Falafel wraps. Meena Bazar is a place in Dubai famous for Indian chats. You will get chat snacks at best deals.
This place is heaven for falafel lovers. Only 3 Dirhams for the roll. Must try place for expats in Dubai
Very nice place for low budget snack. Falafel sandwich is tasty and very different from others. Just at AED 3 it is completely worth it. Not a big place so you can stand and eat or take away. There is some place to sit.

Been visiting this tiny little joint in Meena Bazaar ever since I was a kid. Their felafel sandwiches are to die for! Since it is such a tiny joint it is more advisable to get a takeaway from here. The most consistent thing about them is their quality! As far as I can remember their taste has been the same. I still always love visiting them whenever I am in Meena Bazaar!
This is one of the oldest place in meena bazar and the best for their falafeel sandwich and falafeel. The sandwich cost 3dhs and its easy on your pocket also. The falafeel cost .50fils for each. The sandwich is tasty and 2 are enough to fill you up. After the shopping day out this is the llace to stop for a refill.
Greatest Falafel Sandwich of all times !👌👌👌 once you start you just can’t stop. What more to say. Another Gem from old Dubai..wish I can have more of it when I want
One of the oldest cafeteria in meena bazar servers best falafel wrap in Dubai. been here many times and the taste is always consistent. price is very pocket friendly (AED 2.5 ) and one can feel the freshness.
This place is highly commanded for quick service and fresh sandwich.
Only take away available here as they don't have seating arrangement.
Farisian Cafetaria.
Located inside the meena bazar , Bur Dubai.
Serving Falafel Wraps and samoas......
Very reasonable price and lip smacking taste.
Very good place for evening snack.
Must try Falafel. Superb!
Very cheap and affordable meals available with a spicy chutney inside the falafel and samosa is also a must try over here!!! Full rating
U really can't visit the meena bazaar without visiting this cafe. It is a the best place for vegetarians to visit and enjoy fallafels & samosas. The service is quick, they serve sandwich of khubus made of either fallafel or samosas are made right infront of you and are tasty and delicious. they have maintained the same quality in all the years and at a very reasonable price. There is a small place inside the cafeteria where people can sit and enjoy the snacks. Don't miss this little gem! You can never go wrong with them.
The falafel sandwhich here is to die for. We have driven all the way from discovery gardens to meena bazaar just to have this numerous times. They make it fresh in front of you . Not the regular falafal taste but unique and out of the world taste. Just a counter so you have to take away or stand out and eat. Very crowded usually. Prices unbelievable .
Not the right place for you if you seek authentic falafel sandwich . However what they serve tastes good for Indian taste-buds purely because of the spicy chutney and the crispy falafel. And they won't serve you the spicy chutney unless you order for the sandwich even if you are willing to pay extra. The other 2 items on the menu, potato, tastes ok while the samosa is a little too oily and lacks enough vegetable filling. Overall, you can't beat this place for the value-for-money quotient and the piece of history associated with this joint.
PAISA WASOOL !!!
Best place in Bur Dubai for Falafel / samosa Sandwich
Yess.. samosa sandwich !!
They cook it right infront of You and make your mouth water.
Yummy samosas and falafel
Spicy snack !
A small joint in meena bazaar which serves amazing falafel wrap. A quick way to satisfy ur hunger with extremely low price. I like it personally!!!
Delicious falafel sandwiches and pakoras.. nothing more to say but you gotta try this place.. only thing I didn't like honestly was that the sandwiches paper wrapping sticks to the sandwich after some time hence better to eat fresh...
![Zomato]( "Recensione")
Although it's one of the oldest cafeterias in Dubai but just heard about it few weeks ago.
Last night got a chance to visit this place.
It's a small cafe, with a simple old cafeteria setup as 30 years ago,not at all changed (no design or a place to sit)that makes it so special,when i saw the place it took me back in my childhood days.
The have very simple menu
Falafel sandwich
Potato sandwich
Samosa
What i ordered
-Falafel sandwich 🥙: (spicy)
The sandwich was simple,falafel and some salad,but the falafel tasted sooo good,and it was so light.And the most important was being crispy.
-Potato sandwich 🥔: (spicy)
Just potato and salad,simple,but with a great taste and the main thing was it wasn't oily.
Samosa Sandwich : Yes your reading it write samosa sandwich for me it was the first time trying samosa but really love the taste.
I really loved it's sandwich,and we will be their regular customers.
It's very rare to find a restaurant or cafeteria in Dubai that they kept their authentic look and tastes and the most important thing their reasonable price.
I really recommend for tourists that they visit Dubai.

One of the oldest and most popular cafeterias in Dubai. Serves a standard menu of felafel, samosas and batata vadas for over 30 years and have managed to maintain the taste of their rolls till date.
Excellent for quick bites, snacks, quick service and very affordable fast food.
Hard to find parking around the area
This place has been in Dubai FOREVER and their sandwiches are (still) to die for! Very quick service and amazing food. Would literally recommend to anyone who's looking for a quick bite.
To best of my knowledge Arabic food is mainly about the Lebanese flavours. Dubai being an immigrant hub is a place where you find Indian, Chinese, Korean, Italian, Pakistani any sort of food you like. But the main is Lebanese food. And the one I am holding is the falafel. There is still a debate on its origins being Egyptian or Arabic. But that's Something I am least bothered about.
Falafel or felafel is a deep-fried ball, doughnut or patty made from ground chickpeas, fava beans, or both. Wheat bread on the outside, then the white sauce in the inner layer and some chutney which I couldn't determine. Then on the inner layer comes the falafel and the mix of various veggies. The mint had a flavor punch which almost blew my mind. Looking at the vibrant colors anyone will feel hungry.
I was introduced to this place by my bro in law. A no nonsense minimalistic place. I love their very reasonably priced falafels which taste as good as it gets. Quick service. The ambience is nothing much.
Great place to enjoy simple falafel sandwiches which are really nice for a quick bite or so. Samosas and potato balls available. The falafels are prepared fresh infront of you and its great to grab and go. Sitting is inside but usually no one really sits in there.
The menu is strictly minimal but the expertise is deep. Filafils at this place is light, crispy and crunchy with a character. The samosas are simply superb, with a delicious filling and perfectly deep fried. And the prices are simply out of the world. The place is crowded in the evenings and the counter is busy. I always enjoy visiting such places and watching the proceedings with the sellers and the customers..... Lovely.
I always order some 10 - 15 individual falafil pieces. They make the best falafils according to me. The falafils are always nicely hot and very tasty.

This review is purely based on their aloo & falafel sandwiches *****
This place has been my all time favorite since I was a kid when it comes to their falafel sandwiches . Whenever I visit this place i have always found it super crowded , they sell nearly 5000-6000 sandwiches a day that's what the employees of that place have told and it's simply incredible . The taste of the falafel sandwiches are so good that I am sure you will fall in love with it .
The best falafel sandwich I ever had in Dubai a friend had suggested saying it's one of the oldest and best falafel in Dubai and really it is I 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍for the taste and value for money and the taste is amazing
This place is a legend. Used to be near my old house and I've basically grown having their falafels every other day. Limited staff which has been there for over 15 years now, always serving with a smile on their faces. Can't go to Meena bazaar and bot eat from this place even now.
Samosas and vadas (plain or sandwich) are good too but their falafel is just 2.5 dhs and different from any other. You just have to try it for yourself to see what I'm talking about.
One of the oldest cafeteria selling falafel and samosas in Bur Dubai. Grew up eating their falafels which are super flavoural. It has no fancy seating, no classy decor yet it's always crowded and in high demand. One of the best Street food you could ever have, try it soon if you haven't and I'm sure you'll get addicted too
This is one of the oldest Dubai eateries established at least 35 years back and till date they sell the exact same items, nothing more, nothing less. I have grown up eating their falafel, which used to be sold for AED .50 (yes you read right, Fifty Fils) and today it costs AED 2.50.
They sell a simple falafel sandwich stuffed with two small patties, green mint chutney and salad and the second thing they sell is an aloo vada sandwich with the same filling. Both served with vinegar soaked green chillis, which are for free.
Dubai's 'Melting Pot' tag comes from places like this :). An Iranian cafeteria nestled in #meenabazaar, which is predominantly an Indian neighborhood, selling an Arabic dish (Falafel) made with an Indian twist/recipe, consumed by 200+ nationalities. One of the simplest, most amazing street food items on offer in Dubai.
If you enjoy simple street food and haven’t tried this you are missing out.
