Brunches in Dubai

At the top end, Saffron and Bubbalicious are hard to beat. Mind-blowing buffets, serious drinks packages and entertainment that delivers every time. For something around the 300 AED mark, PizzaExpress JLT is a great option with genuinely talented live singers. Other standouts include the Big Fat Greek Brunch and the 5 Iron Brunch if you want to mix golf with your bottomless drinks.

Any brunch can be the best birthday brunch with the right venue. Use the filters on Uncover DXB to narrow it down to exactly what the birthday person actually likes, then call ahead. Most venues will happily arrange a shoutout, a song and a cake at no extra cost. All you have to do is ask.

Get your group together, decide on a budget and use Uncover DXB to find something that works for everyone. Filter by area, budget, cuisine and vibe and you’ll have a solid shortlist fast. Once you’ve picked a place, book ahead as group tables go quickly.

There is no comparison. Dubai brunch is bigger, longer and better across the board. Better food, better drinks, better entertainment and an atmosphere that the UK version simply does not come close to. Two hours with one drink at a time and a plate of nibbles does not belong in the same conversation.

Anywhere from around 200 AED for entry-level packages through to 1,000 AED and above for named chefs, fine dining set menus and champagne. The range is genuinely enormous, which is why the budget filter on Uncover DXB is worth using before you start browsing.

Ideally yes. Popular venues fill up fast, sometimes weeks ahead for the big ones. That said, with the number of options across Dubai there is almost always room for a spontaneous Saturday. Browse Uncover DXB and you will find something worth walking into.
