Reflected Horizons runs for a limited time only.
The UAE capital excels in delivering world-class art and exceptional coffee. And when those two collide under the architectural marvel that is the Louvre Abu Dhabi, something special brews. Enter LOCAL Abu Dhabi, the homegrown favourite that’s carved a reputation across the capital for its concept store and cult-worthy coffee. Now, it’s taking things up a notch with a stylish new pop-up right beneath Jean Nouvel’s iconic dome.
Running for a limited time only, the new LOCAL Abu Dhabi pop-up is more than just a caffeine stop. Designed as a sleek, glass cube under the floating dome, the pop-up seamlessly integrates into the museum’s aesthetic atmosphere, offering a striking juxtaposition of modern minimalism and cultural grandeur.
The vibe is unmistakably LOCAL. Guests can relax on plush white cushions or kick back in beanbags along the steps, with the gentle sea breeze and filtered sunlight making it one of the most scenic coffee corners in town. Whether you’re recharging after exploring the galleries or meeting a friend for a casual catch-up, this setting delivers a moment of calm.
As for the menu, it’s all about signature sips like matcha, homemade iced teas, and, of course, expertly crafted espresso.
The LOCAL pop-up is open from Tuesday to Sunday from 10am, and here’s the best part — entry under the dome is free if you mention you’re visiting for LOCAL Abu Dhabi. While access to the museum galleries is separate, you’ll still get your cultural fix with panoramic views, architectural splendour, and a perfectly poured flat white in hand.
