Ideas Cafe

Pleasently surprised by the food and ambiance. Lately have been disappointed by most eateries in Dolmen and this was quite good. The steak sandwich was very good. I also enjoyed the truffle pizza. Prices were also reasonable. Good ambiance. Service was lacking as staff was a bit clueless about Whats what.

Ambiance, staff, food everything was perfect. Went there for a brunch and enjoyed it thoroughly. It is aust go place and is highly recommended. We were a group of 6 and all 6 dishes were heavenly. The manager, not sure if I should name him here so I will only use his initial character: D D was very friendly yet professional. Thank you D for your service.

Ideas Cafe inside Ideas Dolmen Clifton: In our recent visits, we ordered: Deli Style Beef and Emmental: Very fancy name, but didn't eat it. Chicken Cubano Sandwich: The server suggested me to go for this one and I didn't regret. I was enjoying the cheese and bologna between the toasted breads. Gourmet Ideas Cafe Hotdog: I had been watching ads of their new arrival and last Sunday I had it. I requested them to serve the dips separately. Mustard and pickles were too bitter and sour for me, but the cheese sauce was . Roasted Garlic and Mushroom Chicken Penne Pasta: Good sauce and the roasted garlic bits. The prices are steep, so come with loaded pockets or simply ignore the review . Total: Somewhere around 8K

Recently visited the newly opened Ideas Café at Dolmen Mall, and I must say, it was a delightful experience. We ordered the macaroni and cheese, Ideas Café salad, club sandwich, caramel iced latte, and mint lemonade — every item was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The mac & cheese was rich and comforting, the salad was crisp with a great balance of flavors, and the club sandwich was stacked perfectly with just the right seasoning. The beverages were equally refreshing — especially the mint lemonade! The staff was courteous and attentive, and the overall ambiance was welcoming and modern. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy a relaxing meal in a comfortable setting. A great addition to Dolmen Mall!

Finally Ideas decides to listen to the market. The store is ten times better than all its previous stores with lots of space to browse comfortably and sone seating areas Thw cafe is right at the back but has wheel chair access, multiple types of seating and a nice view of the outside. The food is priced at par with similar restaurants and most of the menu is familiar territory. We tried the tomato soup which was excellent and the Cubano chicken sandwich who c was also excellent and recommended by the excellent male staff with the earing. He evenn asked us about our meal at the end. The floor manager seemed too shy to come up to us. The pasta salad side with yeh sandwich was original and refreshing and delicious. Haven’t had this in Pakistan before. The fries were short, burnt, cold and soggy. Learn how to do fries from mapolos or beit Al halab. It’s new and spacious and definitely worth a visit. Deep discounts on ALFALAH cards and very good discounts on SCB, habibmetro etc.

Tried it for the first time. Lovely ambience and view. Their seafood was a bit smelly as one table had ordered it and the whole cafe smelled funky after. Servers were few and service was a bit slow for lunch on Saturday Cubano sandwich was alright. Needed some sweet jam or something to contrast the cheesiness. Tasted very heavy and was charred. We also got the roasted garlic chicken penne. That was nice cheesy and saucy. Good Parmesan flavor. Overall enjoyed the experience. Great appetizer and dessert

I’d heard so much hype about Ideas Café and finally decided to visit — and I’m so glad I did! Everyone had been raving about their mozzarella sticks, and they absolutely lived up to the hype. Perfectly crispy on the outside, gooey on the inside — easily one of the best I’ve had. We also tried their chicken strips, which were tasty and well-seasoned. One thing I really appreciated was the complimentary biscuits they served — such a nice little touch — and their mint lemonade was super refreshing too. Next time, I’d love to try more of their main dishes and even their desserts to really explore the full menu.
