A Sweet Escape at Gâto Bakehouse – Dubai Creek Harbour’s Hidden Gem

Tucked away in the scenic heart of Dubai Creek Harbour, Gâto Bakehouse isn’t just a café — it’s an experience. Inspired by Korean flavours and aesthetics, this charming spot has quickly become a favourite among locals and tourists alike. Whether you’re a dessert lover, coffee enthusiast, or just someone looking for a cosy escape, Gâto delivers on every front.

The first thing you’ll notice when you walk in? The atmosphere. It’s minimalist, yet warm — think soft pastels, natural lighting, and beautiful dessert displays that are almost too pretty to eat (almost). But trust us, you’ll want to dig in.

What to Try:
From their signature Carousel Cake to their thick and chewy Korean Fat Macaroons, every bite feels like a celebration. The Nama Chocolate — especially the matcha flavour — is rich, silky, and perfect for pairing with their perfectly brewed coffee. And don’t even get us started on the cookies: crispy on the outside, gooey on the inside, and always baked fresh.

Lactose-Free? No Problem.
Gâto Bakehouse is also incredibly inclusive with its drink options. If you're lactose-intolerant or just prefer plant-based alternatives, they’ve got you covered with almond, soy, and coconut milk options for your coffee and teas — all without compromising on taste.

The View:
Located near the Creek Beach, you can enjoy your dessert with a view of the skyline, waterfront, and boardwalk. It’s a peaceful break from the city rush and makes for a perfect mid-day treat or evening hangout.

Whether you’re there for the aesthetic, the flavours, or just a really good cup of coffee, Gâto Bakehouse is well worth the visit.
