Dubai cafés have found a new summer obsession, and it’s impossible to miss. Flame Tree season has officially moved beyond streets and parks and landed straight onto café menus around the city, giving drinks, ice cream, and colorful summer specials the seasonal orange look.

The trend picked up after Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum directed the expansion of Flame Tree planting across Dubai to add more shade and color to the city.

Here are 5 spots in Dubai joining the Flame Tree trend.
