Best for: The popularity it has gained with locals and visitors alike (youth & adults), who come down just to have endless rounds of shisha. Just choose your flavour of shisha and sit back – this is what life is all about! Prices are typically around Dhs.15 to Dhs.25 and flavours include strawberry. mint, cappuccino, rose, apple, mixed fruit… the list is endless.
Alistair Fonseca, a regular says: “I chill out here for the Shisha. It’s the best shisha around and the cheapest too..”
Sure, you’ll find tasty light fare here, including salads, massive sandwiches, and pastries—but there’s more to Café than meets the eye. Fontana stretches itself from a Pool/ Snooker area to a line of computers packed up for gaming or for internet usage. If you have your own laptop, it offers free WIFI with a purchase. Happy surfing!
Why we love it: Although it’s a café, La Fontana is a perfect stopover for a small bite to recharge your energy or have a three course meal. A meal for two costs Dhs 70-100. Most recommended meal, the “La Fontana Special” which is the grilled chicken breast topped with Mushroom sauce and “Home made Lasagna” which is scrumptious and filling and only costs a mere Dhs.17 (Meal for two). Top it off, with the La Fontana Shisha.
