Paragone By Roasters

the V60 single-origin pour-over coffee and the zen Japanese-minimalist rooftop setting

This place is a real hidden gem if you’re into specialty coffee and a chill vibe. It’s inspired by Japanese minimalism, so the whole spot feels super calm and peaceful, surrounded by greenery and flowers—total zen. Their coffee is next level, with cool brewing methods that bring out all the flavors, plus they’ve got some tasty Japanese-inspired eats like matcha French toast and rock shrimps. The rooftop terrace has great views of the city, making it a perfect hangout for coffee lovers who want a relaxing spot away from the city buzz.

Paragone By Roasters (paragone.ae) is a highly rated (4.8/5, ~2,900 reviews) specialty coffee house at 484a Al Wasl Rd, Jumeirah 2, Dubai, set in a three-floor villa with Japanese-style terraces and a rooftop with Burj Khalifa views. Its concept blends Japanese street food with modern culinary trends, and it specializes in manual V60 'Paragon' pour-over brewing with premium single-origin beans (Panama Geisha, Jamaica Blue Mountain). The curator's notes about Japanese minimalism, greenery, matcha French toast, rock shrimp, and the rooftop terrace are all corroborated by the official site and reviews. Reviewers praise the baristas, cozy ambiance, and an on-site NFT art gallery, though some note food can be hit-or-miss versus the standout coffee. Open daily 7am–midnight.
