The cafe occupies a prime spot in Alserkal Avenue.


Dubai’s love affair with coffee shows no sign of slowing down. Cafes may be everywhere, but there is always room for one more, especially when it brings something different to the table. Enter Subko Dubai, the much-talked-about Indian concept that has finally arrived in the UAE, settling into a prime spot at Alserkal Avenue.

The new outpost stays true to the brand’s warm and grounded identity. Inside, the space feels calm and considered, with relaxed, earthy interiors and an open kitchen layout that puts the craft on full display.

From roasting coffee to baking fresh breads and working with cacao, almost everything at Subko in Dubai is made from scratch on-site. Whether you drop in for an early morning filter or a mid-afternoon flat white, “Subko translates to “for everyone”, and that sense of inclusivity runs through the entire experience.

Rooted in the subcontinent, the cafe celebrates regional excellence in coffee, cacao and baking. On the coffee side, beans are sourced from across India and neighbouring countries, with a strong focus on quality, origin and traceability. The result is a menu of smooth, characterful brews that feel both familiar and excitingly different.
