The tables of Sheikh Zayed

Greater Cairo's west and its open-air restaurant galleries.

€€€ High end

In the west, dining is organised around pedestrian galleries and open-air centres: international kitchens, grills, cafés and terraces. It is the evening outing of the residential districts of Sheikh Zayed and 6th of October.

The extra bit

The galleries are walked: park once and do a circuit before choosing.

Know before you go

An hour from the centre: a destination, not a detour.
