We only went for a drink it was very quite at the time but the lady behind the bar was lovely and helpful
Lovely place with a good atmosphere and service, I would like to thank the Pilipino waiter, he was kind and friendly.
While I used to be a regular here as it is located right next to my building, today I’d the worst experience and I won’t be returning. The place was barely filled and I had ordered a beer. Even before I finished half my beer, the staff came and gave me my cheque. They did not even bother to ask if I wanted another drink or anything else. It felt like they wanted me out of the place. I’m definitely not coming back.
Our favourite club. Staff is very friendly and helpful, especially Hostess Meryam. Music is very good, DJs are changing, my favourite is DJ VAL.
Indian music ‘high loud’ overpriced place nothing to comeback for..
What a find! We booked for our friend’s birthday celebration, and the thoughtful baloons on the table, to the name birthday greeting on screen and Cake+candle sparkle really made our friend’s bday memorable for him!

Great vibe, delicious food, music & DJ was great and just a fun crowd and hangout place on a Saturday night! Definitely coming back again! Shoutout to Miriam and the attentive guy staff who made sure we have drinks on our table and food arrived on time!
Fake drinks and they charge u so much for entry which is not even worth the payment to enter. Better places are around Food also ain’t so good as well
Awesome experience. Especially the bartender sanal was so awesome that he made sure that we got the perfect cocktail. We were in unlimited drinks and 3 course meal combo. Its worth it.
Really nice sports bar and not only. The food is amazing. This time we tried half meter Hot dog and it was fabulous! Another plates from menu which I can advise are “ appetiser plater” mix of appetisers on one plate , fish and chips - really nice portion of fish , loaded fries !🤤🤤 everyone was super friendly ! Especially the manager Filip! Thank you for amazing evening 💪🏻💪🏻
It was a comedy stand up night happy to meet some popular comedians from Lebanon India Egypt and UK was a fun night . Decent prices for the drinks the nachos with smoked beef are yum. Only if the lady waitress will Not roll her eyes and show her attitude when she is questioned abt the drinks this place will be much better ! The lady is unprofessional to her costumer. Wish to call other waiter so serve the table but there was only one other guy busy with his tables unfortunately.
🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢
Guiness draft tasted so weird and the pizza, the pizza, could only be eaten when fully covered with ketchup . Seriously that was the worst pizza ever, shocked how you can screw a pizza at a 5 star hotel.
The service at least was good and the servers are good and nice
Fake beer, fake drinks, don’t ever visit here for happy hour…. Worst experience ever , and the customer service is extreme worst,
Genuine review - 25/10/2021
Great ambiance with good staff. Food is the only issue they need to add more items on the menu.
This is a great bar with a huge outdoor space for long afternoons and evenings with friends. Staff were really friendly, chatty and helpful. However, several of our meals arrived really cold and when we mentioned this to staff, mine returned after being frazzled in what I can only assume was a microwave. This meant the burger was really sweaty and wet. In fairness, the manager removed two meals from our bill because of this but it shouldn't have happened in the first place.

'Happy hour' was beers only - no option for spirits or cocktails, which meant the drinks were AED65 each. Far too expensive in current times in Dubai, when the city is full of good offers and deals.

Overall a great venue but lacking in some areas, which should be reviewed by management.
We visited Foxglove/Soho Beer Garden for a chilled out Saturday lu nch and we were not disappointed.
The place has a great outdoor as well as indoor sitting area, tucked away and nicely decorated, making it feel like you are in a garden in a true sense. The place offers a variety of gastropub style dishes including Sunday roast, pizzas, burgers, fish and chips and over 80 types of beer (for real!).
Perfect place for a relaxing afternoon with comfort food as well as rugby game.
A great spot tucked away on the 2nd floor of Radisson Blu. Very good good, range of drinks and service! Recommended
Wonderful place, where you can rest after hard work day or watch sport games! Food is amazing!
Nice place to hand on during weekend. There 2 piece band is amazing. There will be the reason if i visit this place again. Affordable price and quick service. Staff were friendly but lack of knowledge about there products.
