Bar Hotel Bar and grill

😐 Easy access, the restaurant reception was empty. We had to wait to be seated. The restaurant interior is a bit dark. We had to request a different seat could not even see the menu. Happy hour was until 7 we got there before that but they did not even mention happy hour drinks. Nothing to start with... People often mention good, friendly, menu, staff, great, service, pork, Great, nice, time,

    Easy access, the restaurant reception was empty. We had to wait to be seated. The restaurant interior is a bit dark. We had to request a different seat could not even see the menu. Happy hour was until 7 we got there before that but they did not even mention happy hour drinks. Nothing to start with on the house so we got nachos with pulled beef. Alot of drunken people especially the outside seating. I ordered pork belly. What a tiny little piece of pork. For not so little amount of money. That was disappointing, the roast beef could have been more for the price. Dessert was date and caramel pudding & ice-cream that was lovely.. Food was good and tasty.The staff is friendly and helpful. Restaurant is beautifully decorated. It was not a bad evening out.. Went out starving paid a massive bill went home starving.

    Lovely atmosphere and decor. There is a nice outdoor seating area that would be great in the winter when it is not so humid. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The bangers and mash, as well as the slow roaster pork belly, were both very tasty. I will be back. 😊

    The happy hour menu differs from the rest, so ask the staff and they will be glad to help out. The place has both indoor and outdoor seating.. Its located inside Taj, they have 2 other bar places. The other places do not serve any snacks with the drinks, only the eloquent elephant does that, hence our reason the visit them. The staff is very friendly, and they take good care of the customers.

    This is a lovely spot to catch up with friends. The ambience is pleasant and lively. The music and food were great too. Although it's kid friendly the music is a bit loud for kids. The staff is friendly and attentive. We had a pleasant evening with friends.

    Good place to be, but if you like to enjoy your drink while smoking, this is not the right place to be as smoking in door is not permitted whatsoever. Good for non smoker

    Nice place to have a beer, but kinda expensive if you ask me. No pint goes below 50AED. That also makes the happy hour prices.. not so happy I guess 🤷‍♀️. BTW their "chunky chips" is just a small bowl of chips. Where is the chunkiness? 😢

    Went for a brunch. To start for the price the food was good. The drinks ok I would consider an alternative beer option as Bud is pants. That said the staff we’ve very friendly, helpful and accommodating. I even got an off menu drink. Little touches go along way. Great job. The venue is quite small and I think will be a lot better when you can use the outside space which is actually cool. Also turn of the telly and get a singer . Not everyone wants to watch football at brunch. Great value. Great service. Some room to make it better.

    Visited this place recently and absolutely loved it, came here during happy hours and the menu was good. Had a couple of beers and cocktails and I personally have to tell you that the bartender Pooja made some absolutely lovely cocktails and it was perfect to say the least. Will visit this place again and I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone planning on having a good time in Dubai with amazing service.

    Came here on Monday evening for quiz night with my colleagues. Food was fresh and very tasty as well as their freshly squeezed fruit juices. The quiz night was conducted by a very enthusiastic and jolly host making it even more entertaining and fun. We came in second and got a prize for it too!!! Amazing staff with great service. 💕

    Always this place has been top of my bucket list to visit. When I coincidentally visited Bay Avenue Mall, I spotted the signboard and straight went into it. Never thought this place is British pub. But it was really really pleasant and enjoyable pub. Jamaican Jerk Chicken here is superbly nice!

    Love this place, the food is delicious and the available beer is very good. Atmosphere is chill, music on the background but you can still have a conversation without struggling.

    Came here for dinner…. When we saw the menu we found out they served pork too. Didn’t eat here and left. :( The waitress came to ask us if we were okay to eat here since it was a bar too, but she never mentioned anything about serving pork. Had we not checked the menu thoroughly, we wouldn’t have found out they were serving pork and might have accidentally ended up ordering one of the dishes in that section. It should be told by the waiters to anyone who wishes to dine here and also be mentioned out somewhere or written very LOUDLY on the menu…. Its written there but not clearly enough.

    Nice English pub setup with pure English as well as Indian fused dishes on the menu. The beers on tap were fresh and served well chilled. Vikas our waiter was great at his service and menu suggestions. The Pies with mash and gravy was just too good!

    A little small and noisy but an interesting looking and designed bar. Prices are very expensive but then that's Dubai. If you are staying in the hotel it's worth a visit but I wouldn't go out of your way. Staff and friendly and helpful.

    hi we had gone for office christmas party at eloquent elephant. very bad experience with the manager of the restaurant. we had spoke to shekhar to arrange for tables for 22 people. he was not there but his manager did not even help or speak to us. we ask waitress to call manager many times he never came to us to apologise for it. named biraj i guess. our company director was also in the party. he should apologise to him for his behaviour to us.we will not recommend going there.waitreds gave a very good service but bcoz of the manager our evening was spoiled

    Great vibe and music. Enjoyed the music by the on site DJ. Good selection of beers and friendly/helpful staff. Great place to chill and have a drink.

    My best friend's son's birthday. Went to try out the food. I was sceptical at first, however once I tried the Japanese Steak everything changed. It was soft tender and juicy. Parking is available, you might be given a parking ticket from the porter to park in the green zone, it's free. WC onsite, service OK and a big screen to watch your favourite sports. Also, they have a DJ onsite and a bar, not a fan of alcohol.

    I really like this place. Tasty nibbles, good beverage selection, casual atmosphere. Their small garden is so nice to spend time in.

    Always the best experience at EE. This time around sitting at the terrace, and being pampered with food and bevvies, marked a great beginning to the festive season.

    I had dinner night with my family in Eloquent.i would really appreciate the effort taken by Vaan for enganing my niece and she was really friendly and made sure we had a nice time. The food and drinks was nice and it is a very kids friendly atmosphere. In fact, my special thanks to the reception guy.. Sorry i forgot the name.(starting with G..) for arranging the surprise cake and well arranged service. Me and family had an amazing time cheers!!

    I was mesmerized by this place. It was so charming and gave me very positive vibes. The service is really good and value for money. The place looks fantastic with such elegant interiors you will fall in love with.

    Great ambiance, price was great, steak was great, dessert sticky troffle pudding was great. but the overall quality and taste of food wasn’t the best. The high light was the waiter’s attention Shehkar. A big shout out to him for taking good care of our table.
