When we entered on a quiet Saturday afternoon, we were warmly greeted by the friendly General Manager, Mahmoud. He welcomed us and guided us to our table, which was situated next to a communal table and near the windows, allowing us to enjoy the beautiful outdoor views.

The menu here is divided into breakfast, light bites, lunch, and dinner. We started with the Spicy Cheese and Wagyu Croquettes (39 Saudi Riyals), a perfect shareable dish with a delightful crunch with every bite.

We also enjoyed the Sydney Sliders (69 Saudi Riyals) and the Crispy Chicken Sliders (61 Saudi Riyals). The Grilled Prawns with Garlic and Chili (81 Saudi Riyals) is a standout dish, a signature dish at Jones the Grocer. The fried prawns are tossed in a tomato sauce, topped with basil leaves and grated Parmesan cheese, resulting in a creamy, indulgent dish, best enjoyed with the accompanying garlic bread.

The Ultimate Mr. Jones Burger (93 Saudi Riyals) is a winner on the menu. Although it appears ordinary, this delicious dish – served with perfect French fries – is packed with a thick Wagyu patty, crispy smoked bacon, mixed greens, cheddar cheese, and Béarnaise sauce. It’s quite saucy and juicy to the point where it can get messy to eat.

As for desserts, it’s incredibly hard to resist Jones’ Carrot Cake (34 Saudi Riyals), or you can opt for the Honey Cake (34 Saudi Riyals) instead.

Rating: Jones the Grocer is the kind of place you’ll come back to time and time again. Just like the food it serves, this famous Australian cafe and store make you feel at home, with its retail space and a premium cheese room that will keep you coming back for more.
