Broke Kween Brunches


Shams El Balad

When it comes to authenticity, nothing compares to Shams El Balad. The restaurant celebrates Jordanian flavors in a setting that doesn’t look very different from home.

Offering a menu that is totally gluten-free, refined sugar-free, lactose-free, with countless vegetarian and plant-based vegan options, Primal, the first Paleo restaurant in Jordan, caters to even the strictest of diets.


Brunch @ District

District offers you an escape into a beautiful world of wonder. With a menu that consists of countless mouth-watering fusions, and mesmerizing summer views, it is the perfect brunch-time hideaway.


Rai Lounge

For all you shisha-holics struggling with balancing food and your hookah habits, Rai lounge is the place for you. Did you know it was named after a form of Algerian folk music that dates back to the 1920s?


And remember Tipsters, two guys who are friends can also go to brunch.
