Rock Bottom Café

Bur Dubai


This been-here-forever Western expat fave has a '70s-era American roadhouse feel, with a cover band blaring out Top 40 hits and a DJ filling in the breaks with gusto. By day, it's a regular cafe serving international soul food, but with a mob of friends and a bottle of tequila gone, it’s the quintessential ending to a rollickin’ night on the town.

One of the bar's claims to fame is that it invented the legendary Bullfrog cocktail in the mid-1990s.
