Jones the Grocer

Abu Dhabi


This outpost of the Australian chain has open kitchens overlooking a dining area decked out in stainless steel and earthy wood colours. The eclectic homesickness cure-all menu includes third-wave coffee, organic juices, charcuterie sharing platters, quinoa and roasted sweet potato salad and its signature Wagyu burger.

It's behind the Oryx Hotel, in a residential development set around a leafy square.
