Calling all doughnut fiends.

Lukumades has officially landed on the shores of the UAE, and doughnut enthusiasts are in for a treat like never before. So undo that top button and sink your teeth into this incredible dessert.

Located in Box Park on Al Wasl Road, this will be Dubai’s first branch of the celebrated doughy delight.

But the Lukumades experience doesn’t end with doughnuts alone. The boutique dessert concept also offers premium gelato and locally roasted speciality coffee.

Lukumades also offers an open kitchen-style setup, allowing you to witness every step of the doughnut-making process. From the mixing of the batter to the magical frying process, patrons get an authentic front-row seat to the creation of these delightful Greek doughnuts, which are similar to the popular UAE dessert Luqaimat.

The journey of Lukumades from a humble food truck in Melbourne, Australia, to a global franchise spanning over six countries is nothing short of a doughnut fairy tale. The brand has successfully expanded from its Melbourne roots to become a global sensation, reaching doughnut lovers in more than six countries and counting.

The brainchild behind this tasty venture is Mr X, who found a gap in the doughnut market and wanted to completely redefine the entire experience.Inspired by the fond memories of Greek mothers and grandmothers making these doughnuts at home, Mr X envisioned Lukumades as a unique boutique doughnut concept. He wanted to break away from the traditional and offer something special – doughnuts made to order, ensuring a consistent and fresh taste reminiscent of home-cooked goodness.

Lukumades isn’t just an ordinary doughnut; it’s a celebration of tradition and innovation. A dessert made with passion and care.

It’s safe to say that the Dubai doughnut game will never be the same again.
