The pastries and cakes are very overpriced - particularly the chocolate flourless cake - whose portion is particularly tiny for the price charged. Would appreciate if the portion could be of a reasonable size and not a miniature size.<br/>Some of the staff should be more receptive to customer’s requests particularly very straightforward ones and should not say no to customers on simple requests

One of my favorite places in Dubai and because Souk Al Bahar is not currently open we go to Souk Al Manzil . <br/><br/>The staff are great and the food quality top notch . I was a little disappointed today when I was informed they didn’t have Almond Milk 🥛 or any other non lactose alternative due to non receipt from supplier . I mentioned that they should be able to provide a substitute in this day and age despite the fact that their original supplier can’t . ( especially that there is even a Spinneys opposite!) . A few minutes later I was informed they could give me soya milk - thank you 🙏 <br/><br/>The pancakes 🥞 were delicious and served piping hot . Portion was generous and two of us shared . Nice side of goji berries and chia seeds . <br/><br/>Highly recommend! ❤️

While we are spoilt for choice when it comes to breakfast, one can't help but go back to Baker and Spice. <br/><br/>The award-winning restaurant has been around for over a decade serving scrumptious food which is organic and locally sourced.<br/><br/>While there are multiple branches all over Dubai, the downtown branch is a personal favorite. The ambience is inviting, spacious and most importantly, it is quiet and peaceful during early mornings.<br/><br/>We had their Signature Shakshouka which is a traditional Mediterranean breakfast dish. The tomato-based dish was full of potent flavours and the dried chilli flakes gave the added spice to the dish. We requested the eggs to be medium done and they prepared the eggs just as requested. The runny yolk complemented the tomato dish well giving the dish an overall lively and spicy flavour.<br/><br/>The restaurant is not only popular for its breakfast menu but also for its healthy selections and bakery items.<br/><br/>Overall a great place to visit for fine quality food

We were at Dubai Opera and they sold food items from Baker and Spice. What we tried were all quite good, would have been nice with a salad option though and we bought some gluten free cookies that was very cutely packed, but the string was impossible to open, so it was not ideal packaging when you are watching a show and don’t have any scissors to open it with, managed to break the plastic on it eventually.

Small classy dine in area, good service, i would say it is the tastiest healthy home food like place to eat, food is cooked daily and you get to choose like a buffet but with limited amount, very tasty salads and all food generally, main issue that it is pricey for the portion, portion needs to be doubled to have an average price otherwise it is expensive

Such an overrated breakfast place !!!<br/><br/>Here’s my experience :<br/><br/>Went for breakfast and ordered the Turkish egg which in description has Aleppo chili butter,<br/><br/>Which to be honest the only reason why I ordered the dish.<br/><br/>I receive my overly cooked egg, on a labneh schmear and unpresentable green onion decoration ...<br/><br/>Me to waiter : hmmm Excuse me where’s my chili butter ?<br/><br/>Waiter : what chili butter ?<br/><br/>Me : the Aleppo chili butter that was on the description of this dish on you menu.<br/><br/>Waiter : there’s no such thing<br/><br/>Me : please grab the menu <br/><br/>*grabs menu* and I show him... he goes away for a few minutes, comes back with another menu,<br/><br/>Waiter : Ma’am look in this menu it’s scribbled off as we don’t have it.<br/><br/>Me : are you kidding me ? You went away to scribble the word off to show it to me, please grab me other menus.<br/><br/>*he does* and the only scribbled off description of the egg was on the menu he claims was already scribbled off but not the other menus (shady much ?)<br/><br/>I hated the fact that they tried to play me for a fool, instead of just being plain honest.<br/><br/>Service was horrible and slow, food that my friends ordered was cold and bland.<br/><br/>Definitely not worth the hype, and oh yeah, it’s pricey !!! Placing a pic of the menu in case they call me a liar ... <br/><br/>This place is Not Friendship <br/><br/>

The quality of the food is just so good - it’s like eating at a chef’s home. Nothing here feels processed or mass-produced - it’s honestly like you’ve been welcomed into somebody’s loving household and feed good, solid nourishing food. It’s like a good old comfy hug. <br/>The only caution I’d offer is that you need to give yourself time when you visit B&S. Nothing is rushed, which supports my view on the freshness of the food, but it can tend to feel like inattentive service at times. Nothing major, but just enough to be noticeable.<br/>If you visit early on a Friday morning, they’ll have fresh, light donuts - definitely a reason to visit!

Went to the clinic the other day early in the morning and then sat down in this beautifully and refreshingly decorated restaurant in souk al manzil for breakfast. The breakfast items on the menu are very limited and very boring. I ordered scrambled and their self acclaimed best selling omelette and received two extremely sad looking plates of food 15 minutes later. Honestly the scrambled egg platter was the saddest plate of food i have ever eaten. The bread was top notch but all the other items, may be organic but were totally bland.

It's a unique cafe and bakery, a concept coming from UK. They focus on organic and fresh ingredients. I like a good variety at this particular location. Tried it in holiday times. Got some individual Victorian Sponge cake and some croissants to go. They were all ok to good but nothing outstanding! I enjoyed the spinach and artichoke savory danish which was quite unique. Victoria Sponge cake was a little dry though. Location is ideal!

Everything I ve tried there is good, and I ve brought people with me many times who were happy to discover the place and enjoyed their food too. <br/>My only drawback is about the staff, either slow or not very helpful ... It always seems that you've got a waiter either new to the concept or not exactly enthusiastic about it. I feel like being served by robots.

Visited Baker and Spice one afternoon in the middle of what you call the "Dubai Winter" for a hot drink. The place had a great spot in Souk Al Bahar, I sat outside the terrace afront the view of the Dubai Mall Fountain, right in front of the one skyscraper you can never really not see when you're Downtown.... the Burj Khalifa. It's a good place to chill, it's not too quiet as few steps from the terrace is the walkway where tourists stop for pictures. But it's still a chill place, I got to stay for a good 2 hours reading a book peacefully. Staff were attentive to their customers tho I sat at the far end of the terrace it was easy calling their attention. I'm not a coffee drinker so as always I asked for a Hot Chocolate. They didn't have any other type of Hot Chocolate in their Menu aside from the Mexican Hot Chocolate. The waiter gave me a heads up that I might not like it cause it's Mexican. Tried it anyway & I regret it. I suggest you don't order a Mexican Hot Chocolate unless you really know what it is.

.....they are undoubtedly one of the healthiest restaurant in town. <br/><br/>Their menu has superb wide selection of healthy foods made of fresh, seasonal, locally and organically grown ingredients.<br/><br/>We tried their salads at the counter of which you have the liberty to choose up to three varities which is a great option, organic chicken soup that comes with complimentary freshly bake bread and spaghetti meatballs -everything tasted great, impressive and tasteful. Hence, just one thing we can not find --having a gluten free in their menu plan. The price is on higher side but totally worth it!<br/><br/>The ambience is outstanding ---clean, tidy and peaceful. They have great location with indoor and outdoor seating overlooking the spectacular view of Burj Khalifa and the Dubai fountain.<br/><br/>Service is excellent; staff are welcoming, friendly and attentive.<br/><br/>To sum it all, they do have great food plus excellent service coupled with great ambience and location equals great dining experience. Hope to come back for more! :)

The best food in town. The coffee is too bitter for my taste. But the food is always nothing short of perfect. The only thing missing from my visits to baker and spice is soup and raw vegan salads (all vegan salads I see there have cooked eggplants or something akin to it). When it comes to main courses, a lamb dish is a must on my visits. The last time I was there I went for Iftar and enjoyed the best spaghetti and meatballs I've had in my entire life.

The Dukkan Manzil branch is an institution, consistently delivering delicious hearty cooked meals and excellent service. One of the very few restaurants in Dubai that truly care about being part of the community and treat their customers like family. This branch in particular has daily changing dishes in addition to their normal menu and is by far my favorite branch. Everything in the display counters tastes amazing!

Every Baker & Spice location is spectacularly unique. The cafe in Al Manzil has a strong sense of community. The staff seem to know most of the patrons, the management seem to be around most of the time, they're equipped with a small but sufficient selection of wooden toys to entertain children and their salads remain their bestsellers. <br/>The Manzil kitchen is supposed to serve up food depending on the season and it does so with an ever-changing daily menu. There's not always a whole lot of choice of mains for VeggieCow, but the salad bar is seriously good value and the desserts are wonderful. Is it expensive? Depends on what you expect out of a resto. VeggieCow would prefer to eat less, but eat well. And know it's good food that's treated right.

Talk about food hygiene, this restaurant places cooked food right in the open at warm temperature which is a danger zone and fantastic environment for bacteria, I asked the waiter when it was cooked, he said about 3 hours ago!! There weren't any sneeze guards or protection of any kind! This should be banned. On top of that super expensive! They sell food by weight. And some by portion, and some combos, and some I don't know! Very confusing! I walked away after 10 minuets...feeling irritated & famished!

Small friendly deli located in a resident souk at Al Manzil, perfect for takeaway but also seats a few tables. Typically serves 'healthy organic, fresh, local fodder' & freshly baked hot breads as the name rightly suggests. The diverse menu & the rotation of the dishes every day makes it a delightful treat for the customers to revisit. The food itself taste just perfect, not adapting to any particular region, yet serving dishes from around the world. Baker & Spice is definitely a love affair with food but ... an expensive one.

I was expecting to be impressed by this cafe given it's recent accolades, however, I ordered the avocado and rocket salad that arrived looking a little paltry portion wise and the mere sprinkling of feta didn't help. A couple of caramelised walnuts added to the barely attended party leaving me wondering what my 58aed actually paid for. The food seemed fresh, however a poor first impression given that the branch in Shanghai is excellent.<br/>Let's hope this isn't another franchise that is lost in translation in the Middle East.

Went to this place for breakfast. It was an interesting but a slightly odd experience. Ordered the english breakfast, (2 eggs, 2 sausages, half a tomato, a small portion of baked beans and some toasted bread). I was asked how i wanted the eggs, so I said scrambled which the waiter said was not possible, it's either sunny side up or a full fry. I mean, do you not have the technology to scramble eggs? Or are you guys trying to fleece your customers?<br/>My friend ordered a mushroom omlette which was definitely very good and worth the money. <br/>Additionally, we were told that they had gluten free options as well but the waiter flat out denied having these items on the menu. Perhaps, we were misinformed. <br/><br/><br/>Positives -<br/>Great location and view<br/>Quality of food was good<br/>Beef sausages were brilliant<br/><br/>Negs - <br/>Slightly Pricy<br/>English breakfast was a let down<br/>Service was average<br/><br/>Overall, the place is worth a try but I would not come back.

A concept cafe cum restaurant with a gorgeous location in Souk Al Bahar where you can experience the gorgeous Dubai fountains with a stunning backdrop of Burj Khalifa - this is definitely a restaurant where I take my guests for a 'dine with a view experience without burning the pocket'. The concept of ‘organic’ food or ‘locally produced’ fresh produce is gaining awareness in Dubai only recently, but what is commendable about Baker & Spice is that it has been committed to supporting local and organic farmers, even when the concept itself was new to many of us in Dubai. So was the concept of a ‘changing’ menu, depending upon the seasonal fresh organic fruits and vegetables that can be procured from the local farmers. Of course, their Shakshouka is legendary but that shouldn't be the only thing that one should try from the menu. Almost every dish that is served seems like it has been cooked at home... for example, the 6 hour slow cooked lamb steak with mashed potatoes on the side. <br/><br/>Their philosophy – local, organic, fresh and homemade – rules the Baker & Spice kitchen. The restaurant is concerned with ethical procuring of spices and believes in fair trade. Do read this interesting story on my blog about how Baker & Spice made a trip to Rajasthan along with Down to Earth Organic, just to meet the farmers!<br/>http://ishitaunblogged.com/2014/03/31/a-trip-to-rajasthan-to-meet-the-farmers-ethical-procuring-of-spice/
