Where to Find the Best Avocado Toast in Egypt – A SceneEats Guide

These avocado toasts stay true to the original vision… before it got lost in edible glitter and flavoured foam.

Farah Awadallah

There was a time when ordering toast with mashed avocado felt like a trend - fleeting, foreign, and a bit overpriced. But somehow, somewhere between café openings and soft-boiled eggs, avocado toast stopped being a novelty and quietly became a staple. It didn’t ask for much - just a slice of decent bread, good seasoning, and a ripe avocado that didn’t betray you.

Now, it’s the go-to. The safe order. The “I want something light but still filling, fresh but still satisfying” kind of meal. It works for weekday meetings, weekend brunches, or days when you want to feel like you’re making responsible choices without sacrificing flavour. But here’s the thing: not all avocado toasts are worth the bite (or the bill).

So we set out to find the ones that are. The ones that get the texture right, the seasoning balanced, and the toppings thoughtful - not fussy. Whether you like yours with eggs, chili flakes, or just a little lemon, these are the best avocado toasts in Egypt worth showing up for.

Holm Café

14 El Sheikh Al Marsafy St., Zamalek 
Served on dark bread with a clean avo spread, Holm’s toast is simple and well-balanced. No unnecessary toppings, no chaos - just good ingredients that speak for themselves.

Laduree

Branches all over Egypt 
Avocado toast here comes with scrambled eggs or smoked salmon, and it’s plated exactly how you’d expect from Ladurée: neat, polished, and slightly formal. It’s more breakfast-meeting than lazy brunch.

30 North

Branches all over Egypt 
They don’t just serve avocado toast - they offer a menu of it. With around 10 variations to choose from (think: eggs, burrata, labneh, chili, even smoked salmon), it’s a choose-your-own-avocado-adventure. Some are better than others, but if you’re the type to overthink your order, this is your moment.

Brunch and Cake

Park St. West, Sheikh Zayed & The Club, New Cairo 
Expect generous portions, multiple toppings, and a heavy hand with presentation. It’s flavourful and filling - definitely a full meal, not a light snack. Best for when you’re hungry and in the mood to sit down for a while.

Baxters

O1, New Cairo
Baxters keeps it classic. You get a nicely toasted slice of sourdough, a solid avo spread, and maybe a poached egg. No reinventing the wheel - just a good version of what you came for.

Ovio

Branches all over Egypt 
Ovio’s version is simple, elegant, and clearly knows the value of restraint. Nothing is trying too hard, but everything tastes like it went through quality control. You eat it and immediately trust the rest of your day.

Aubaine

Arkan Plaza, Sheikh Zayed 
Their avocado toast is clean, minimal, and clearly thinks very highly of itself. It's the kind of meal that comes with perfect posture and a side of sparkling water.

Blaze

Branches all over Egypt 
Blaze serves avocado toast the way a hungry adult wants it: hearty, unfussy, and ready in ten minutes. No edible flowers, no dramatic drizzle - just a solid slice of reality.

Boho Café

Abu Tig Marina, El Gouna 
Light, fresh, and exactly what you want to eat by the sea. Their avocado toast is simple but well done, with good bread, balanced seasoning, and a view that does half the work. Honestly? Worth the four-hour car ride from Cairo.
