Tawa Bakery

Tawa is a unique 100% gluten-free bakery and café in Abu Dhabi founded on a belief that eating gluten-free should never mean sacrificing taste or quality. Our original menu includes freshly baked breads, sandwiches, pizzas, pastas and desserts that are wholesome, delicious and made with naturally gluten-free ingredients.

Fringe Society

Fringe Society is about creating a home, wherever you may be. As expats we often find ourselves living on ‘the fringe’ of societies around the world. Immersed in different cultures and beliefs, day-to-day life can be unpredictable and challenging, which is why our home becomes our haven.
Drawing on my love of natural materials, textures and tones, I find inspiration in the contrasts of my surroundings: raw & luxe | natural & manmade | bold & subtle.

Home and Soul

HOME AND SOUL
We are Home and Soul, a lifestyle concept store that blends furniture, fashion, design and accessories, oh and off course coffee.

Archers Coffee

Our coffees are seasonally sourced and delicately roasted to showcase the hard work and dedication of our producing partners. It’s a product of passion and consistency passed down from several generations. We want to honor that work by interfering as little as possible, roasting carefully to bring out diversity of flavors, aromatics, and acidities. By doing so, we let the coffee tell it’s own story.

Why Go-Lokal?

We should support our local market (local products & local brands) by empowering people within the UAE to do business with local companies and local entrepreneurs that are based and operate from within the UAE.

By connecting the local community we aspire to support the local economy, making its unique brands better known, and create awareness for authentic tour experiences. Go-Lokal gives you access to all hidden gems the UAE has to offer.

Lokal of the month

Mleiha

Mleiha, a UNESCO-nominated World Heritage Site in the Central Region of the Sharjah map, is home to a number of significant sites, including Bronze Age tombs and pre-Islamic forts. Fascinating artifacts and fossils were discovered here, including pottery, iron tools and camel skeletons. The Mleiha Archaeological Centre, which opened in 2016, houses these discoveries and even more artifacts that uncover ancient UAE history.

The centre also offers a range of tours and activities. You can explore the archaeological sites or venture into the sand dunes with a desert safari. Alternatively, you can also try other desert adventures like riding a quad bike or dune buggy over the sand. If you prefer to go on foot, consider trekking to Camel Rock for an expansive view of the desert. The surrounding area is a beautiful location for a desert camp on soft dunes and under glittering night stars.
