When you've had enough kabsa and shawarma and just want a burger, Salt is the answer. Walking distance from the Haram, recently opened, and already a go-to for casual dining.

What to order

Sliders — Salt's signature. Choose from classic beef, chicken, and fish options. Served in sets with well-seasoned patties and creative toppings. The beef sliders are the most popular.

Popcorn Chicken — crispy, perfectly seasoned, and seriously addictive. One of the best things on the menu.

Mocktails — Salt does a solid range of mocktails that go well with the food. A nice change from the usual soft drinks.

Ice cream — worth it if you have a sweet tooth.

Our take

Fills a real gap near the Haram. Quality is a clear step above fast food. Sometimes after days of heavy rice dishes, a good slider and a mocktail is exactly what you need. Located in the same building as Joe & The Juice, so you can grab a fresh juice on the way out.

  • 5 min walk from the Haram
  • In the same location as Joe & The Juice
