Crafted with Coffee,
Printed with Love

Where world-class specialty roasting meets playful innovation. Discover the journey behind Dubai’s pioneering selfie latte experience — and the husband-and-wife team who made it happen.

The Genesis

Turning Every Cup into an
Unforgettable Personal Memory

Are Square Coffee is the dream of husband-and-wife duo Ramiza Paik and Razi Ahmed. After more than seven years in the food & beverage industry, working with many well-known brands, they decided it was time to create a brand of their own. In January 2025 they opened Are Square Coffee at Amaya Mall, Dubai, with a simple idea: turn every cup into a personal memory — becoming the home of Dubai’s first Selfie Latte.
From our meticulously calibrated 88+ Q-grade micro-lot espresso extractions to the warmth of Dubai’s quintessential hospitality, we celebrate precision in every measure. We believe coffee is not merely a morning ritual, but a canvas for artistic connection and self-expression.

Razi Ahmed

Razi has worked alongside many food & beverage brands, learning what makes a café truly special. At Are Square he leads the craft behind the counter — the coffee, the menu and the operations that keep every cup consistent.
“After years of helping other brands grow, we wanted to build a place that feels like ours — where great coffee meets a little bit of magic, and every guest leaves with a memory.”
