Restaurant review: Shakespeare & Co




Name Shakespeare & Co.
Address Safa Centre, Jumeirah
Phone number 04-3941121
Hours 7AM-1AM
Reservations no
Specialties The decor. Beautiful furniture, walls, and flooring. They recently changed the furniture and now it has more lace and in my opinion has changed from a more French country style to Regency English style.
Special Gimmicks playroom for children and an outdoor's section that stays air conditioned throughout the year.
Ambience Amazing because of the low lighting and comfortable couches.
Favourite table The couch hidden inside the alcove near the children's playroom.
Cuisine Mixed. A combination of Lebanese, Italian, French, and a little bit of Asian.
Attire Casual
Prices Moderate. Starters at around AED30-40, main courses range from AED50-100 depending on what it is.
Who went with me Shamma
Occasion Breakfast
What I ordered Chocolate Viennoise and caramel and almond crepe
What others had Turkey and cheese sandwich and a cafe latte.
Total bill with tip AED110
Usual crowd People living around the neighborhood. During the mornings, moms who drop their children off to school. Evenings, shisha people.
