One of our most memorable staycations was at the Address Beach Resort two years ago. I remember floating around in their infinity pool – mesmerised by the spectacular views from the 77th floor. Wouldn’t it be nice, to sit in a restaurant all afternoon – come winter or summer, and have that view? Well, hats […]
The weather is heating up, isn’t it? Good time to do a brunch with pool access, don’t you think? Doubletree Hilton in JBR have recently relaunched their much loved Gastro Kitchen brunch. We returned one Saturday late February with the family to spend the day there. If you’re looking for a family-friendly brunch in JBR, […]
Right on the Bluewater Wharf sits Virgin Izakaya, an extension of the very popular bar in Ukraine. This is their fourth venue – and where else best to do it but in the heart of Dubai itself. Every Saturday they do a ‘Wild Izakaya Brunch’. We went over early February to review it – just […]
We are possibly one of the last people in Dubai to dine in Ce La Vi. I am sure you have a photo on that swing – possibly a Dubai bucket list, isn’t it? Though we haven’t done their famous business lunch as yet, we did have the opportunity to review Ce La Vi’s Saturday […]
Why haven’t we been to Raffles the Palm before this? What an exquisite property – the interior, the landscaping, their gardens – just beautiful. As we walked into the lobby, we were in awe – the sparkling christmas tree right in the middle and a giant chandelier right above. We have entered a castle, haha. […]
When was the last time you went to Abu Dhabi? Well, it will be the first for us since covid, now that we no longer need a green Al Hosn! Off we went to one of the family-friendly resorts on Saadiyat Island : the Saadiyat Rotana Resort & Villas. It was mid December so the […]
Are you cooking up a feast for the family this Christmas? Or are you heading out? Lucky for us, there are so many options here in Dubai for a meal, with all the many family christmas brunches around. We have rounded up a few family Christmas Brunches in Dubai. These are all family-friendly, whereas some […]
Re-introducing a much loved resort of ours : Le Royal Meridien Resort & Spa. Every Sunday, their British Seafood restaurant Geales does a family day lunch. We have done this a few times now, though it was still exciting for us to return, with all 3 in tow. Here’s what to expect in the Geales […]
A dear friend of ours was back in town and I started hunting left right centre for a fun spot for a get together. We did the ladies night at the new Claw BBQ in the Palm many weeks ago, and have been hoping that they will launch a brunch. They didn’t, but hooray – […]
Have you ever brunched in Ras al Khaimah? We drove up to the Intercontinental Ras al Khaimah one weekend mid November, for a daycation – as well as to review Noho’s New York Brunch. Somewhere new, somewhere different. That’s, always exciting – isn’t it? 🙂 Here’s what to expect at the Noho’s New York Brunch.
2023 Update : Jardin Rose Family Brunch is currently discontinued. Please have a browse through our Family Brunches Listing for other options. Did you watch Beauty and the Beast, as a child? I did. I loved it. So I was probably more excited than my kids when I found out that the Family Brunch team […]
A popular one with the Brits for obvious reasons is the family brunch at Bread Street Kitchen – Gordon Ramsey’s award-winning restaurant. We headed down the Palm towards Atlantis on a Saturday afternoon late October to review their family brunch, three little kids in tow. If you’ve always been planning to do this and wasn’t […]
What a crazy brunch it was – Oktoberfest at Lock, Stock and Barrel also known as LSB in JBR. We don’t ‘party’ much – so this was just absolutely nuts for us. It was also one of our friend’s birthday – so where else to go for a big, crazy and loud birthday do? LSB […]
Four Seasons Resort Dubai in Jumeirah Beach have relaunched their Saturday brunch in Suq, their family restaurant. We returned to the resort in September to review the brunch, now called the ‘Sensational Saturday Brunch.’ A bit cheesy I thought – it better be as ‘sensational’ as it is named to be, haha. Here’s what to […]
A dear friend was organising his birthday do with the troupe, and Trader Vic’s was the spot. Tiki Hula Hula Brunch it’s called – happening every Saturday at Hilton Dubai Jumeirah. They had been there just a few weeks prior and loved it so much for the food and party vibe that he decided to […]
Depending on who you stalk on socials, you might have seen images of these two sumos with the Burj Khalifa in the backdrop.

We are always happy to see another family brunch being launched in Dubai. I first found out about the FamBam brunch from a sponsored, probably targeted ad on instagram. Congratulations, you guys got the right demographic, and the right person 😉 I had seen press releases about Social Distrikt from their PR company so reached […]

Please have a browse through our Family Brunches in Dubai listing for other options Another one from The Family Brunch crew – here’s Sunday Roast at the Ritz, which we popped over one afternoon in June to review with the family.

I can see the musicians right now going Noooooooooo, don’t bring your kids to my gigs! C’mon, what’s wrong with little people? Other than their little fingers, wanting to climb up stages, wanting to press any buttons they see, pull down the mike stand. Not so bad right? Don’t worry, we can keep an eye […]
We drove up to Business Bay one Saturday to meet another family for brunch – this time to review Billy’s Brunch at Bai Bar. It was one of those weekends in March where we were sceptical what the weather was going to be like. It was going to be either hot and icky (like the […]
