Update — More restaurants and shops coming soon

11 July, 2024

Campus and Community are pleased to announce that we will soon be offering new shopping and dining options to enhance your experience at KAUST.  

Following the last Retail Services Surveys where over 600 responses were received providing retail preferences across the community, the Campus and Community Retail team have reviewed and listened to the information received. An action plan was implemented to address these preferences and the initial output was the launch of the successful series of pop-up restaurants.  

As a next step, the Retail Team are now looking to introduce a variety of renowned brands to KAUST to enhance and diversify our dining options.  

Stay tuned. Over the coming months, we will announce plans for several new dining options and others undergoing renovations or enhancements.
