The city is constantly trying to push the envelope and come up with more experiences that will set it apart from the rest of the globe. This includes the nightlife, which is pumping with hundreds of pubs, bars and clubs for every taste and lifestyle. With so many unique places to go, its hard to compile a list of stand outs. However, these are some places that deserve extra attention and are extremely exciting.

Mr. Miyagis

Mr. Miyagis has set itself apart due to its fun and colorful decor, as well as a great Thai food menu. Inspired by all things Thai, the venue even has a a tuktuk parked in the middle, and offers karaoke on certain nights, as well as beer pong!

Chillout Lounge

How about having dinner at a temperature of -5 degrees Celsius? Although Dubai is best known for its hot summers, it’s possible to grab a bite in the freezing cold Chillout Lounge.

This is the perfect spot for those who enjoy dancing the night away to hip hop and reggae tunes.

Tribeca

Bar, Healthy, American

Hipster New York vibes, stylish and chic decor and a menu full of healthy organic items. Tribeca is one of the few places in Dubai where you can eat zoodles (zucchini noodles) and grab a drink at the same time.

Here, Ibiza meets Dubai, and people dance on the sand and by the sea.
