Sandwiched within the cluster of eateries occupying Alkhobar’s Qurtuba Square, Saturn Bakery offers a constellation of freshly-baked goods with a fun atmosphere.
The whiff of freshly-baked homemade pastries will greet you upon entering. And while the decor subtly hints at the planet the bakery is named after, it does so without appearing too kitschy.
The spot is ideal for breaking bread while sitting and pondering your time on Earth. It is well-lit with natural light from the windows and offers a welcoming area to study or work — or to take a break from either, or both.
There is additional seating up the stairs for more privacy and potentially more peace and quiet.
On a recent visit, we tried their SR39 ($10) grilled halloumi combo special: an open-faced sandwich with a slathering of basil pesto sauce, some crispy greens and juicy tomato slices with perfect grill markings on the cheese atop the toasted sourdough.
