Coffee shops are the ideal spots to relax, unwind and catch up with friends, or they can be the perfect location to get a bit of work done or host a casual meeting.

From freshly baked, flaky croissants and creamy cappuccinos to hearty French toast and ice cold Spanish lattes, pour overs and other exciting combinations, in Khobar you won't be short of a good coffee and a lovely treat to go with it.

These four coffee shops in Khobar are some of our favourite spots for socialising and refuelling.

Cay

Overlooking the glistening waters of the Arabian Gulf, this chic café is strategically situated along the coast of Khobar at one of the hottest spots for dining, Matal — making it the ideal place for an insta-worthy photo.

The team behind Cay have also introduced a range of ice-cold refreshing mojitos, that will be the perfect escape from the summer heat. Get your pals together and head to Cay for great coffee in a top location, with a side of tasty pastries.

Density

@densitycoffee

This two-storey café feels spacious and welcoming as soon as you step inside. With numerous seating options both indoor and outdoor, you can choose to enjoy your beverage in the buzzing, lofty surrounds of the building or take a seat on the terrace outside with a view of the fountains (if you're at the Villagio branch!)

With two handy locations, one at Villaggio and the other at Roofz on Prince Turkey Street, Denisty is the ideal spot to meet some friends after work, or bring a book and go solo: the café is spacious enough that you'll feel comfortable either way.

For an extra boost, grab a bottle of the Cold Brew Drip to enjoy on the go. And for any matcha lovers, the iced matcha latte, is the well-balanced: not too sweet, not too bitter. And you can order with your preferred plant based milk too.
