Epic news for coffee fans: Dubai hospitality whiz kids Tom & Serg are opening a new cafe in Mall of The Emirates called Common Grounds.

The new spot from the brains behind Tom & Serg and Sum Of Us will open on September 28 (a decent flat white in a mall?! Testify!). You’ll find it on the second floor within the new expansion of Mall of the Emirates.


“Common Grounds will be similar in style to our existing venues because it comes from the same family, but will have its own distinct personality.  Customers can expect to see handmade breakfast, lunch and dinner options including smashed avo on linseed toast, acai bowls and super salads all the way through to moreish burgers and jerk chicken,” says founding partner Tom Arnel (yes, he’s the Tom of Tom & Serg).

The cafe will be open from 8am-10pm seven days a week.
