How to Order Sourdough Bread Online in Dubai and Abu Dhabi
Which of our seven sourdough loaves to order, what each one costs, which delivery window to pick in Dubai, how an Abu Dhabi order works, and what to do with each loaf when it arrives.
To order sourdough bread online in Dubai from Farah, add loaves from our sourdough collection to your bag by the day before, choose a delivery window at checkout, the earliest being tomorrow 7–10 am, and pay by card on PayPal's page. Our seven sourdough loaves cost 14 to 30 AED, and delivery is 20 AED below 150 AED and free from 150 AED, with no minimum order. We deliver sourdough to Abu Dhabi too, between 2 pm and 8 pm, the earliest two days after you order.
Every loaf is baked to order for the day it is due in our kitchen in Dubai Silicon Oasis. For what sourdough is and how each of our loaves is made, read our guide to sourdough bread in Dubai; to judge a loaf before you buy it, see how to choose a sourdough loaf.
How do you order sourdough bread online in Dubai?
Add the loaves to your bag, enter the address and map pin, choose a delivery window and pay on PayPal's page, all by the day before you want the bread.
- Choose your loaves from the sourdough collection; the bag shows how far you are from free delivery.
- Enter your details. Choose Dubai or Abu Dhabi as the emirate, put the street and building or villa number in the address line, and the apartment and floor in the "Apartment, floor" line.
- Drop the map pin at the door our driver should come to; checkout will not accept the order without one.
- Choose a delivery window. The earliest is preselected, so check which one is ticked.
- Add a note for the baker naming whoever will take the delivery in.
- Pay on PayPal's page with a PayPal balance or a credit or debit card, usually without needing a PayPal account.
Orders placed after our evening cut-off are scheduled for the next baking day, and checkout shows the date before you pay. There is no same-day delivery.
Which sourdough loaves can you order, and what do they cost?
Seven, from 14 AED to 30 AED, and one of each comes to 170 AED. Choose by when you will eat them: the big loaves keep for days, the baguette and ciabatta do not.
- Country Sourdough Loaf, 25 AED. Our signature round loaf, slow-fermented for over 24 hours, with a hard, blistered crust. It handles soup, cheese and jam alike, so order it if you are unsure; read how the flagship is made.
- Multi-Seed Sourdough Loaf, 28 AED. Sunflower, pumpkin, flax, sesame and millet through the dough and on the crust: a loaf for tearing at the table.
- Sourdough Cheese Loaf, 28 AED. Cheese folded in as cold cubes, leaving molten pockets in the crumb. Order it for soup or a sandwich with a sharp filling.
- Chocolate Sourdough Loaf, 30 AED. Cocoa and chopped dark chocolate with only a little sugar, so it eats as bread rather than dessert. Toast it and reach for salted butter, not jam.
- Date, Walnut & Honey Sourdough, 30 AED. Dates, toasted walnuts and a touch of honey, yet not a sweet bread: order it for aged cheese or labneh.
- Sourdough Baguette, 15 AED. Mostly crust, thin enough to shatter, and crust softens quickly, so order it for a meal rather than the week.
- Sourdough Ciabatta, 14 AED. Flat, with wide holes that hold oil and dressing instead of letting them soak through: the loaf for a sandwich you are carrying somewhere.
A loaf costs the same whichever window or emirate you choose. Our guide to bread prices in Dubai explains what moves the price of a loaf.
When will your sourdough arrive in Dubai?
In one of four three-hour windows: tomorrow 7–10 am, tomorrow 3–6 pm, the day after tomorrow 7–10 am, or the coming Saturday 9 am–12 pm. The order can arrive at any point inside the window you choose.
Order on a Wednesday, for example, and checkout offers Thursday morning, Thursday afternoon, Friday morning and Saturday morning. A morning window suits the country, multi-seed and date loaves, which keep for days; the tomorrow 3–6 pm window suits a baguette or ciabatta for dinner, since both are best on the day they arrive.
Every address in Dubai gets the same windows and fee, from Dubai Silicon Oasis to Dubai Marina; fresh bread delivery in Dubai covers the other breads we deliver.
Can you order sourdough to Abu Dhabi?
Yes: choose Abu Dhabi as the emirate at checkout and you are offered four consecutive dates, the earliest two days after you order, each between 2 pm and 8 pm. Our courier partner for Abu Dhabi needs a full day's notice, so there is no next-day delivery; order on a Monday and checkout offers Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
Delivery costs the same as in Dubai. The bread arrives in the afternoon, so build the order around the country, multi-seed and date loaves, which keep for three days or more. The cheese and chocolate loaves are at their best within two days; eat the ciabatta that evening or as toast the next morning, and the baguette that evening. Choose a date when someone is home all afternoon. Our page on bread delivery to Abu Dhabi covers the rest of an Abu Dhabi order.
How much is sourdough delivery, and how do you get it free?
Delivery is 20 AED on a bag below 150 AED and free from 150 AED, in Dubai and Abu Dhabi alike, with no minimum order. Checkout shows the fee before you pay.

What should you do when the sourdough arrives?
Make sure someone is in to take it, keep every loaf out of the fridge, where bread stales faster than on the counter, and follow each loaf's own rule:
- Country Sourdough Loaf: cut side down on a wooden board, uncovered, for the first day, then in a cloth bag or bread tin. It slices well for three to four days; slice and freeze what you will not reach by day four.
- Multi-Seed Sourdough Loaf: cut side down on a board for two days, then in a paper bag inside a cloth or a bread box. On day four, toast it a setting or two lower, as the seeds colour faster than the crumb.
- Date, Walnut & Honey Sourdough: in a paper or linen bag, cut side down on a board, and out of plastic on the first day. Freeze it sliced and sealed.
- Sourdough Cheese Loaf: in a paper bag or a clean cotton cloth, in the air conditioning. If you will not finish it within two days, slice it and freeze it flat in a sealed bag.
- Chocolate Sourdough Loaf: cut side down on a board, or in paper or cloth, never sealed in plastic. From day three, slice it and freeze it in a sealed bag.
- Sourdough Ciabatta: cut side down on a board or in a paper bag. It still makes good toast the next morning; beyond that, slice and freeze it.
- Sourdough Baguette: in its paper bag, out of direct sun, eaten the day it arrives. Halve, wrap and freeze what you will not finish that evening within about four hours of delivery, then bake it from frozen at 200°C for ten to twelve minutes.
Slices of the country, date, cheese and chocolate loaves toast straight from frozen. Our guide on how to store bread in Dubai explains why the fridge does more harm than the counter.
We cannot replace fresh items left uncollected or unrefrigerated. If a delivery goes wrong on our side, message us on WhatsApp the same day and we will replace or refund; our delivery page has the details.
Can you collect your sourdough instead?
Only by arrangement: there is no collection option at checkout, so message us on WhatsApp first and your order will be ready when you arrive at our kitchen in Dubai Silicon Oasis. There is no walk-in shop. The kitchen's address is on our delivery page.
What should you know about allergies before ordering sourdough?
Our kitchen handles wheat, gluten, eggs, dairy, nuts, peanuts, soy, sesame and seeds, and we cannot guarantee that any item is free from traces of these.
All seven loaves contain gluten. The Multi-Seed Sourdough Loaf carries sesame among its seeds, the Sourdough Cheese Loaf contains dairy, and the Date, Walnut & Honey Sourdough contains walnuts and honey. Our product descriptions are not full ingredient lists, so that does not make the other loaves safe for an allergy. If anyone has an allergy or intolerance, tell us before you order and we will tell you honestly whether we can serve them safely.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I order sourdough for tomorrow morning in Dubai?
Yes. In Dubai the earliest checkout window is tomorrow 7–10 am, and it is preselected, so an order placed today can arrive tomorrow morning. Orders placed after our evening cut-off are scheduled for the next baking day, and checkout shows the date before you pay.
Do you deliver sourdough to Abu Dhabi?
Yes. Choose Abu Dhabi as the emirate at checkout and pick one of four consecutive dates, the earliest two days after you order, each between 2 pm and 8 pm. Delivery costs the same as in Dubai, and the bread arrives in the afternoon, so order loaves that keep, such as the Country Sourdough Loaf.
How do I pay for a sourdough order?
On PayPal's secure page at the end of checkout, with a PayPal balance or a credit or debit card, usually without needing a PayPal account. Prices are shown in AED and settled in US dollars, and nothing is charged until you approve.
What is the cheapest sourdough loaf you sell?
The Sourdough Ciabatta at 14 AED, followed by the Sourdough Baguette at 15 AED; both are best on the day they arrive. Our signature Country Sourdough Loaf is 25 AED and slices well for three to four days.
Is there a minimum order for sourdough delivery?
No. You can order a single loaf, and delivery is 20 AED on a bag below 150 AED. From 150 AED delivery is free, so a week of loaves in one order can cost less than two smaller orders.
Order your sourdough
Choose your loaves from the sourdough collection by the day before for Dubai, or at least two days ahead for Abu Dhabi, and pick the window closest to when you will eat them. For a first order, the Country Sourdough Loaf at 25 AED slices well for three to four days, so it suits a Dubai morning or an Abu Dhabi afternoon delivery. Everything else we bake is in the shop.
