If you’re in Abu Dhabi this summer and looking for a space that blends culture, creativity, and a good cup of coffee, make your way to the Lobby Bar at the Abu Dhabi EDITION. In a special seasonal collaboration, the hotel has teamed up with ETHR, the Emirati lifestyle brand known for celebrating sustainability and tradition in equal measure.
The EDITION x ETHR pop-up, available daily from 4 PM to 11 PM throughout summer 2025, invites guests to experience a setting inspired by the Areesh — traditional Emirati frond houses. Expect palm leaf textures, soft lighting, and natural materials that echo the UAE’s architectural roots while offering a contemporary interpretation of heritage.
ETHR, widely recognised for its environmentally conscious installations, has built this space using upcycled metals and biodegradable materials. It’s a design that doesn’t just look good, it’s gentle on the planet too.
Once you’re settled in, there’s plenty to enjoy on the menu. Freshly roasted coffee takes centre stage, alongside refreshing drinks like the Mango Reviver. Those with a sweet tooth can look forward to locally inspired treats, including a date cake made with Al Ain dates and a vanilla cheesecake — ideal companions for a slow afternoon or a relaxed catch-up.
Whether you’re visiting the hotel, passing through for a meeting, or just need a new spot to unwind, the EDITION x ETHR collaboration offers something thoughtful and beautifully curated.
