Cafe Bateel is the Creme de la Creme. A true foodie experience, especially during Ramadan. You cant go wrong with anything on the menu and the coffee is par for the course. We went for their Ramdan iftar, and this makes the if I had a last meal list for sure. First they bring out the juiceist dates and date milkshakes to start the dining experience. Then we selected from the iftar menu. We chose the pumpkin soup, Lebanese trio of salads, Grilled Salmon, Wagyu meatballs, and then desert was a set menu. The soup could only be likened to liquid gold. After one bite we didnt know whether to eat it or buy more to invest and let the value increase. This soup was legendary! The trio of salads was great too. The flavors in the beetroot hummus and carrot humus was delightful. The salmon was cooked perfectly and I cant say enough about the Wagyu meatballs!!! These tasty delicate, meaty yet savory meatballs drowned in marinara sauce delivered. The succulent, moist and tenderness of each bite created a euphoria that will blow anybodys mind. Dessert was crazy as well. You can just say this was the John Legend of Iftars. Go here. Eat here. Be happy for a lifetime. Done!
My favourite coffee and breakfast place.Their food is wonderful and the dates are wonderful
Great cafe , great location with indoor and outdoor seating option with a awesome view to Abu Dhabi corniche , they have a great menu with lots of varieties to meet all tastes , food is consistently good , they have wide selection of desserts, the date was the best date I’ve ever tasted , loved their sparkling date drink , staff are friendly and attentive, sticky date pudding is the most delicious pudding I ever tasted (A must Try ) , definitely will visit the place again for a breakfast with a view
Lovely views of the corniche! Tasty breakfast, specially the croissants. Fantastic customer service and 3 hours of free parking.
An awesome view, relaxing ambience and very welcoming staff! Starting with the bread/balsamic vinegar/olive oil, the balsamic vinegar is of a good quality and they do have gluten free bread (you have to ask for it). They accept the entertainer. The food was really good and they have the ability to customize it. The grilled salmon can be made dairy-free. And they have gluten free option for the pastas. It will be a definite stop for me when I visit Abu Dhabi again.
Always a great time...service is excellent...food is great!! That Balsamic date vinegar divine!
I have been here a few times.Service wise- most times good, sometimes a miss & occassionally you get a scowl. Such people, you dont see them there for long.Food wise- quite good. The date cake is nice, if you have a sweet tooth. The salad is very healthy and have lots of superfoods.Nice environment to chill and during dinner time, you will get to see some fireworks during certain public holidays.The free bread starter that comes with olive oil and date syrup dip is nice. Ask for more of the bread with dates.
The food is good but unfortunately the tables smells bad due to the lack of detergents and cleaning, we asked for cleaning but he came with wet tissue and wiped it.
Well frequented restaurant with good views and friendly and helpful service. Good selection of cakes and coffees. We also had the lamb, which was soft and juicy.
One of my favourite spots , great location , unique dishes and ingredients, amazing view and very helpful staff.Highly recommended
Excellent location, food very tasty and fresh.They used to serve complentary bread with jam and butter, but mot anymore.Still its my favourite restaurant
My friend ordered scrambled eggs and I ordered the avocado on toast. We both enjoyed our order. Apart from the bread that was a bit dry and the beetroot puree was dull. They serve a decent affogato and an excellent tea. The service was friendly. An enjoyable experience!
Very nice restaurant when assign order from deliveroo for cafe bateel and I arrived my order is already very fast restaurant for making food no crowd of people staff behavior very nice
Great breakfast and Good view. Loved the place. Thanks!
Lovely lunch with pleasant views and good service
Fantastic place to have tasty meal with a Corniche view. Great staff.
I found it very oridinary
Nice place and good sandwiches.. however, quite expensive....
I ordered their waffle and shakshouka. Amazing taste with all the adds-on. Tried shakshoka from other places, I like this the best. Clean and delicious food
Great food and service. Never disappoints - they are happy to cater to those who have specific dietary needs!
It is worth the quest to get here. This branch is in the Nation Galleria on the first floor, off to right side. Im not crazy about eating straight dates but their dates are very smooth tasting and not as sweet or sticky as those found in the USA. Strongly recommend eating some with qawah, the traditional Arabic coffee. It has ginger and cardamon spices which gives it a very interesting flavor from standard western coffee. Its very lightly roasted so its more tea like than coffee. Highly recommend. I also had their date pudding with yogurt ice cream. Again, not very sweet do you could taste the ingredients.
The besr view with the perfect food
Good as café, but food or main dishes are horrible and nonsense prices
Good choice for chilling, meetings and family gathering. They are very kind, always smiling and taking care if you need anything or you have a problem with served order. Highly recommended 👌🏻
The food is good but the serves is really bad we waited 1 hr to get our breakfast and no body came to ask if we beed anything the servers were not able to handle the amount of ppl in the cafe which was a very stressful experience and the coffee came when we finished eating
Quality food. Good atmosphere. Nice staff. Perfect place for every meal and all ages.
We love this place. So calm and menu is great. Delicious food and good service
Amazing ambience and fantastic views of Abu Dhabi Corniche
Amazing place to relax and the views are great especially during the cooler months...the Date Pudding with REAL Vanilla icecream is to die for
No test of the sweet
Beautiful view and amazing coffee, which comes with a delicious date. What’s not to like?
Visited three times...first 2 times were enjoyable, with simple, flavourful food and decent service. Our third and LAST visit was very disappointing. Food was cold, overly spiced and coupled with slow table service, despite only 2 other tables occupied.
Everything is overpriced, even the water and soft drinks.
Its a regional coffeeshop chine, you can enjoy good Arabic coffee and dates. Also, they have tasty selection of food. Must try it
Very Nice cafe.. Amazing location. Best staff
Good placeThe food quality is excellentThe quantity should be more for such price
Good place and good food. Great location. Recommended.
Food was great. Staff super friendly and helpful
Amazing place. The view and the service are 10/10. Food and drink quality is 100%
Delicious food overalls, #best breakfast & sweet menus. good location I advise to visit the branch spiciall in winter to enjoy sitting outside. The staff were too kind.
Really bad service and food. Dont order the ribeye steak, its really bad.I asked for mushroom sauce and they serviced it after freaking 30 minutes!!!!
Quiet Mall with a selection of eatery options. Unfortunately, customer service is seriously lacking at the Nation Towers customer services department of International Capital Trading . If you have a problem, they have a limited understanding of the meaning of how to serve the customer. When we made a complaint, we found them inflexible, together with a lack of understanding of the issue. The management are willing to sacrifice customer satisfaction levels for the sake of saving themselves a couple of dollars! As a result they have lost loyal customers. Consider spending your time and money at one of the other malls such as Galeria Mariyah Island.
Excellent place and great food, Its not only a cafe, its more of a fine dining restaurant
One of my favourite places in Abu Dhabi for fine food at affordable prices
Quiet and good service.
Best cafe best lunch And best diner. The food is very tasty, organic and healthy. Try to summer burrata quinoa salad and grilled salmon
One of the BEST places in UAE where you can eat anything related to dates.

Favourite place. Try the seabass
Friendly service. Good quality basic food.
Great views, excellent service and fantastic food
My wife and I visited on Friday 25th March 2016, in the afternoon and definitely not during any peak period. The service right from start to finish was very slow. Staff were unattentive and not interested in serving the customer. Food and coffee took an extremely long time. We wouldnt go again.
I like the spicy tomatoe soup
One of the best breakfast in ad.
