Went to this beautiful newly opened coffee destination near University city of Sharjah .... Nota Speciality Coffee. This area is emerging as a new eating hub... with some amazing cafes & Restaurants opening here.... Nota is one among them.... the place is quite spacious with lots of seatings done in different styles in every corner of it. The walls are creatively done with artistic murals ... even the furniture is very different & classy. Love the wooden Tic-Tak on one of the tables. You can also spend some time reading the coffee related books kept there. Coming back to food..... as they are specialized in coffee ... they serve a variety of it. We tried their Flat white coffee.... which their serve with some amazing design on top of it. We also tried their Pistachio Milk Shake ... a perfect blend of pistachio with milk & icecream. Not only coffee, they also serve some fresh & delicious cakes & croissants. We tried their ... - Pistachio & also Nutella Milk cakes. ..... soft & moist ... definitely a must to eat - Next we tried their Zaferan cake .... I had Zaferan flavored desserts earlier too, but this was certainly the best of all... not too much sweet .. just percent & delish. - They also have some small bite sized desserts like ... mini London Cheese cake & Peanut Butter Truffle. Everything was scrumptious. To sum it all ..... it’s a place you would love to go frequently. I would definitely recommend it to all.

Best spot for a quiet cup of coffee, it’s cozy, not crowded, and the servers are great My favorite barista is Oscar, he makes the best cup of coffee I usually go for a hot flat white or Iced americano with a Ethiopian and Brazilian blend and it tastes just right, Oscar always customizes my coffee perfectly upon request and does everything to make his guests feel comfortable and welcome They’re Spanish latte and cold brew are pretty good as well!

This café in Muwaileh is easily one of the coziest, quietest spots around. Nothing flashy, just a comfortable, wood-accented space where the coffee is simple but on point. They serve solid coffee, and the warm, earthy interior makes it feel like a great escape from the usual places. The barista is friendly and keeps things laid back, so you don’t feel rushed or out of place. I love stopping by here on my own to chill out and take a break from everything. It’s the perfect place if you’re looking for a casual, low key vibe to just enjoy your coffee in peace.

Pros: Coffee is good. Friendly Staff. Beautiful decor. Cons: Place is mostly dead, no one sits there and the stuff they offer didn't change since the soft opening. The stuff the offer are the same as the other coffee shops in Muwailih so there is no point to pick this place over other coffee shops.
