The warm, candlelit dining room at Almería filled with guests sharing plates

A Mediterranean Trattoria · Cairo

All our dishes are designed to be shared

Mezé, tapas, brick-oven flatbreads and slow-cooked tagines — drawn from across the Mediterranean and rooted in Egypt. Pull up a chair.

We are a

Café by day, Mediterranean bar & trattoria by night

In the heart of Cairo, Almería gathers the flavours of the Mediterranean and the Levant onto one generous table. Egyptian besara sits beside Tunisian harissa, Greek village salads beside slow-braised oxtail tagines — all meant to be passed around and shared.

During the day we're a café, with a daily spread of cakes and pastries alongside speciality coffee brewed in collaboration with Fyngan Coffee & Roastery. As evening falls, the room turns into a Mediterranean bar and trattoria.

Coffee byFyngan Coffee & Roastery
mediterranea /me.di.terˈra.ne.a/
A region of lands around the Mediterranean Sea with mild rainy winters and warm dry summers — a climate that shapes a diet and food culture built on sharing what you eat, whether by way of small plates (tapas & mezé) or one large decorated platter or tagine pot.
trattoria /tratːoˈria/
An eating establishment rooted in tradition, with casual service and a menu of modest but varied offerings that follow regional and local recipes rather than haute cuisine.
