If you’re an art enthusiast with a love for coffee, then Art Cafe in Riyadh is the place for you.

The cafe opened at the UWalk on Prince Turki bin Abdulaziz Al-Awwal Road in Riyadh three years ago and has several branches in the Eastern Province of the Kingdom.

With high ceilings and comfortable seating, the cafe is a great place to relax if you’re looking for an escape from the summer heat and want an enriching and creative ambiance.

The owner’s passion for art inspired them to launch the cafe with an in-house gallery. They offer customers opportunities to display their artwork on the walls of the cafe free of charge, which adds a great local touch to the interior.

Due to the proximity of its location to King Saud University, the cafe has become a hub for students and university staff looking for a suitable place to enjoy coffee, work, study or even just gather with friends.

Along with a range of options for hot and cold coffee, including a lavender latte and dark mountain latte, and a variety of berry mojitos, they also have cheesecakes and cookies.

However, despite the vibrant atmosphere and satisfying service, the lack of savory options on the menu leaves something to be desired.
