Whether you're looking for an exclusive night out or a lively sports bar to catch up on the latest football, as well as catering for those of you after a more authentic view of the Emirates. We have a range of drink experiences available for you all. Including a plethora of coffee tours and social activities, alongside romantic champagne moments and cocktails with a view.

Although if you're over the age of 21 and searching for alcohol, please be aware of Dubai’s strict licensing rules. You're not allowed to drink in the streets or other public places, plus many of the locals abstain for personal and religious regions, hence why several of the best bars can be found within your hotel.
