Abdoun (عبدون) is a residential district in southwest Amman, technically split into North and South Abdoun but called by one name, and many consider it the city's most affluent neighborhood.1 It hosts many embassies, among them those of the United States, Egypt and Portugal, and Queen Zein al-Sharaf Street, named for King Hussein's mother, is known as Embassy Road.23 Deir Ghbar (دير غبار) borders it, as do Sweifieh and Jabal Amman.1

Abdoun Circle, ringed by restaurants, cafés, malls and market stalls, is where the city's young people go out, and the TAJ Lifestyle Center is one of Jordan's most upscale malls.1 This is also the specialty end of town. In 2019 Melange, on Fawzi al-Qaweqji Street since 2017, poured single-origin coffee from Vienna's CoffeePirates, with Kava Roasters nearby.4

Local tip: For an early start in Abdoun, Būn Fellows on Irbid Street opens at 07:30, or 08:00 on Fridays, and serves until midnight.
