partial scoreThe Sum of Us - All-Day Brunch
Business Bay · Ground Floor, Burj Al Salam, 6th Street - Trade Centre - Trade Center First - Dubai - United Arab Emirates
Casual cafe dishing up international fare such as noodles, steak & burgers, plus coffee & smoothies.
The Sum of Us is Dubai's most beloved all-day brunch café - a perpetually packed Business Bay institution serving outstanding coffee, house-baked sourdough, proper eggs and a brunch menu that resists fashionable additions in favour of doing the classics properly. The shakshuka is consistently excellent, the sourdough toast with smashed avocado remains the signature despite its cliché status (justified in this case), and the house-roasted coffee is some of the best in the city. Weekend waits of 30–45 minutes are standard and entirely worth it. The Sum of Us remains the benchmark against which other all-day brunch spots are measured.

Reviews
Was really happy to see that even with all the new places in Dubai, the sum of us is still the same quality and deliciousness as it was 10 years ago.
