Fifteen years ago, Caffè Nero opened its first doors in the UAE right next to the famous Dubai Ice Rink. Now, that foundational store at the Dubai Mall has celebrated its anniversary with a major renovation, reopening its doors with a completely refreshed, chic new design. This relaunch is a clear commitment to remaining a leading, customer-first destination, blending premium specialty coffee with a tranquil, vibrant atmosphere. It’s the perfect response to the constant demand for aspirational yet comfortable spaces where shoppers can genuinely relax.
The strategic location next to one of Dubai Mall’s most recognizable landmarks demanded a bespoke design that could handle the mall’s electric energy while providing a necessary retreat. Caffè Nero succeeded brilliantly by focusing on natural finishes and a warm, inviting color palette.
The new design features:
- Natural Wood Finishes throughout the space.
- Soft Lighting and Earthy Tones that create a calm, warm environment.
- Thoughtfully Arranged Seating that offers both intimate, cozy corners for private conversation and open communal tables for friends and groups.
Gareth Hopley, Head of Communications at Caffè Nero, noted the balance: “The new look and feel will excite and relax customers equally, and we’ve been careful to ensure that we retain the charm that has made this a beloved store for over 15 years.” The refreshed ambience ensures that whether you’re taking a brief break from shopping or meeting friends, the atmosphere enhances the experience.
While the design is brand new, the core of the Caffè Nero experience remains the dedication to handcrafted specialty coffee. The highly trained baristas ensure that every cup meets the premium standards the independent, family-owned brand is known for across its network of over 1,150 stores globally.
The newly reopened space transforms a routine coffee run into a deliberate moment of pleasure. In the fast-paced, high-end environment of the Dubai Mall, having a spot that successfully delivers calmness and warmth is a unique proposition. The store serves as a perfect escape valve, a place where guests can unwind, enjoy the lively energy around the Ice Rink, and savor a superior cup of coffee.
Caffè Nero’s rejuvenated Dubai Mall store is ready to welcome the next generation of customers, blending its historical charm with a sleek, modern aesthetic. Stop by the refreshed location next to the Ice Rink for your next specialty coffee break.
