I recently had the pleasure of trying the afternoon tea experience at SocialBee, and it was absolutely delightful! The bee-themed decor was charming and unique, creating a cozy yet vibrant atmosphere. The selection of teas was impressive, with each one perfectly complementing the beautifully presented treats. The staff were attentive and friendly, making sure our experience was top-notch. Highly recommended for anyone who loves a unique, themed dining experience.

I had the most pleasant, unique, and memorable experience at Social Bee! The set-up was so lovely, the view was nice, the atmosphere was comfortable, and the customer service was top tier, and the food/dessert was chef’s kiss! Some of the foods were changed to accommodate my allergies, which not only was very hospitable but greatly appreciated. Everything was so aesthetically pleasing and delicious, and the beehive presentation was so nice I wish I could take it home! Yoon was the best hostess ever, and her nails were so pretty! She helped me with my tea choices, and even took photos and video of my experience as I was alone. I just want to thank Social Bee and Yoon for helping me make a memory that I will never forget! If you are in or going to Dubai, Social Bee is a MUST!

Had the most wonderful experience at Social Bee Café today! The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, and Winny was absolutely fantastic—so friendly and attentive, she made us feel right at home. What impressed me the most was the care and thoughtfulness of the chef, who prepared a special set of lactose-free treats just for me. Everything was fresh, beautifully presented, and absolutely delicious. It’s rare to find a café that goes the extra mile to accommodate dietary needs with such creativity and flavor! Highly recommend Social Bee Café for anyone looking for great food, amazing service, and a warm, inviting vibe.

Afternoon tea date, but make it magical & dramatic! We visited Social Bee and wow—the presentation was a 10/10! The 4-tier spread was a dream: Top tier: chocolates & mousse Second: savory delights (we could have eaten more of these!) Third: desserts Last: scones with clotted cream, lemon butter & jam Everything was delicious, from the savory bites to most of the sweets. We were so full, even sharing among the four of us—yes, the kids joined our “date” ! Unlimited tea, coffee & water included @socialbeedubai AED 349 for 2 ⏱ 2 PM – 5 PM daily A magical afternoon that’s worth every bite! Watch full video on Instagram / TikTok/ YouTube
