Cafe
August Zang
Laminated pastries and specialty coffee fill the lobby-level bakery of Kimpton Al Rowda Doha, a Viennoiserie that honours centuries of Viennese baking tradition while happily bending a few of its rules.
The story
August Zang calls itself a bakery with a rebellious streak. Its counter pays tribute to the long tradition of Viennoiserie, with beautifully laminated pastries that follow the classics, along with a few that stray from them on purpose. Coffee gets equal attention, with expertly brewed specialty drinks that keep a quick stop from staying quick. It sits on the lobby level of Kimpton Al Rowda Doha on Suhaim Bin Hamad Street, where it is the first place the hotel greets its guests. The mood is easygoing and the dress code is casual or business casual, which makes it a natural meeting spot and a daily ritual for regulars. The hotel's other venues include an all-day restaurant, a Mediterranean dining room, a gastropub, a poolside Italian spot and a steakhouse.
