Located at Villaggio Restaurant Village in Alkhobar, which has become a hip retail hub with a cluster of international eateries overlooking a dancing water fountain, Toast & Tonic is an elegant choice to grab a bite.
While this is their only permanent branch in the Kingdom thus far, they have been participating with popups at events like MDLBeast and have become an active caterer in recent years.
Their brick-and-mortar space is beautifully decorated with plenty of seating and an extensive menu that includes popular acai bowls, burgers, sandwiches, and desserts.
We tried their crispy chicken burger, which costs SR 36 ($9) and comes with the fixings and a side of fresh fries. The crispy chicken combined with fresh lettuce was enjoyable. The fries were peppered with cheese flakes, parsley and paprika, which made for an elevated experience. We washed it all down with their popular passion fruit mojito, a tasty and tangy drink priced at SR24.
They also offer lemon ricotta pancakes, stuffed crepes and a crispy Om Ali, which is a modern twist on the popular dessert. They also offer the usual hot and cold beverages.
Toast & Tonic is open from 7 a.m. until midnight every day except on Thursdays and Fridays when it is open from 7 a.m. until 1 a.m.
