Yes, there is a coffee museum in Dubai. I had no idea. But after reading about the history of coffee, I had the "aha" moment. From its beginnings in Ethiopia, it quickly spread into the Arabian peninsula before the Arabs spread it to large parts of the world.
In addition to the cool history, they will make you a cup of coffee of your choice for only 10 Dirhams.
There's also a gift shop where you can buy some pretty expensive freshly ground coffee and other coffee paraphernalia.
Apparently, I got lucky and it opened shortly before my trip there. This link says it was scheduled to open at the end of October 2014. At the time of writing this, the website was still under construction.
Below are the pictures I took.
