Bur Dubai


This quintessential British pub comes with the requisite dartboard, pool table, cheap beer and several sports' screens. Ladies night is Tuesday, cocktail night is Friday and the most popular pub grub? Chicken tikka masala, of course! Located in the Ambassador, Dubai's oldest hotel (since 1971), it's fun, full of character(s) and an amiable place to wind down with a pint.
