With several branches across Riyadh, Onda is a quiet, cozy coffee shop that offers a peaceful setting — ideal for studying or working.
Music, if played, is usually kept at a low volume, which helps maintain a calm atmosphere.
The menu includes a variety of hot and cold beverages, such as espresso-based drinks, iced teas, and seasonal options like hot chocolate raspberry and Arabian latte.
While the cold drinks include flavored iced teas like raspberry and peach, these are made with syrups rather than fresh fruit.
Onda also offers a range of pre-packaged pastries, such as croissants in plain, cheese, and zaatar flavors. These are reheated on-site, which is common in many Riyadh cafes, but there is no in-house bakery.
The interiors are simple and calming, with blue and white decor, comfortable seating, and plenty of charging outlets. Each location features a small bookshelf for guests to browse, adding to the relaxed vibe.
Outdoor seating — especially in the Diplomatic Quarter — is a nice touch, with some locations offering views of lively streets.
Onda is also open from 6 a.m. to 3 a.m., making it a convenient spot for both early risers and night owls.
