Restaurant Bar Pub English restaurant

😐 The beverage is slightly overpriced, and due to the lack of nibbles offered at this price, I will deduct a star. They charge 55 AED for a pint of Strongbow or Heineken, but nothing comes with it. Upon arrival, I ordered a pint of beer and noticed they had an offer for a pint plus a burger for 99 AE...

    The beverage is slightly overpriced, and due to the lack of nibbles offered at this price, I will deduct a star. They charge 55 AED for a pint of Strongbow or Heineken, but nothing comes with it. Upon arrival, I ordered a pint of beer and noticed they had an offer for a pint plus a burger for 99 AED. However, they informed me that I had to order another beer to avail the offer because it was already "punched" in the system (that's what he said!). Happy hour is until 9 pm, which might explain why this pub is not very popular. When I arrived at 21:10 (10 minutes after happy hour), they promptly informed me that happy hour had already ended. Of course, the staff is kind and nice. This is Dubai, habibi, where everywhere is like this. There's a good collection of music playing in the background, neither too loud nor too low, which is nice. The environment looks very clean, and the seats are very comfortable. There are two big screens, but they constantly play cricket instead of football (that's what she said). Usually, in pubs, you can find something memorable, like a statue or a big logo, but here, there's nothing. Old bricks on the ceiling and dusty chandeliers were supposed to create a nostalgic decoration, but RGB lights ruined it. Each table has a small ashtray, but the pub doesn't smell like a smoke-free place due to good ventilation. They don't have wireless internet! The name of the Wi-Fi is OPPO_E4E21E, which is probably a mobile hotspot. Regarding the food, I deducted another star for it. I don't know why they think they're too classy! From a classy establishment, all they have is high prices and small portions of food :) The fish was extremely small, and the chips were absolutely without any salt. Should I put salt on them? Have you ever received chips without salt without asking for it? I guess they are so considerate about my health. The taste was good, though. I had to ask for mayonnaise for the chips. My final recommendation: It could be a choice if you live nearby, but it isn't worth driving all the way to this pub for something overpriced in a very ordinary atmosphere.

    Need a break ? Call your buddies after a long day of work and head to this cosy place @thecoinsdxb .Walk through the doors and experience the authenticity of an English Pub nestled in the heart of Dubai at DIFC. I had been here with my friends for a lazy Saturday lunch and we were amazed with the quality of food and service. The bar has a vibe of a British Pub with the beers flowing out from the taps. I relished the vegetarian food options that this bar had to offer such as : Mock meat Burger, Bruschetta, Mashed Potatoes and Cheese onion Balls while sipping on my Espresso Martini. I thoroughly enjoyed the service from Ms. Angel and Mr. Wilson and the artistic bartender who was creating some astonishing cocktails at the bar including my Fiery Baileys.

    Place is located in Emirates Financial Towers, The Coins Pub Bar, since I found this hidden gem 2021 place was some how good time to time. Place has lots of issues with A/C winter time was ok but now Spring Summer it will be become as a Steaming Sauna. Service is very poor, I would rate out of 10/1. Give a try if you want to have couple of drinks, Food I would not recommend, tried many dishes all of that was very poor quality.

    Did the business lunch there, it was a terrible experience, ordered fish n chips and it was extremely underwhelming. Portion was tiny and it looked more like a shnitzel. Sticky toffee pudding came out freezing cold, asked them to heat it up and they bought it out ever so slightly heated. Hard to have a conversation with the staff in regards to asking for recommendations and best sellers. Bad hospitality. Would avoid.

    Great little pub in the centre of Dubai. Food was lovely, good portions, tasty and a nice selection of items on the menu. The tomahawk steak is definitely one to try along with the chocolate lava cake. The staff were brilliant, friendly, welcoming and very knowledgeable about the menu items. Very happy with our experience here and will be back for sure.

    The menu offers a variety of delicious starters and main courses. I had Coins Buffalo Wings and Pepperoni Pizza (Crunchy thin crust pizza). I highly recommend this Pub. The food is delicious and the atmosphere is brilliant. One of the best English Pub in Dubai!

    This was my first ever visit to British style pub and I was impressed like how!!!! Located at the prominent location in DIFC, the ambiance is cozy and well lit. The service is excellent, the staff assisted well in ordering food and drinks 🍺. The food seemed of good quality and the bartender surely knew his job. The drinks were just amazing 🤩. Highly recommending for its ambiance and drinks .

    Been in Dubai for a week and been looking for somewhere that serves a cool pint in a lovely "familiar" atmosphere and came across The Coins English Pub. Lovely boozer tucked away on the ground floor of the Emirates financial towers. Beer is bang on point, food is spot on and Raj Chetry the manager is a very warm and welcoming guy. Rog behind the bar provides excellent customer service and is always smiling and friendly. And to make things better its a 2 min walk from my new office...guess I found my new local ;)

    The Coins English Pub @DIFC, offers the best of everything. The place for a choice of drinks, meals and so on. Loved the vibe and food was great. The staff was super helpful and attentive. We tried so many things, the coins beef burger is really good. The bar area is vibrant with a wide choice of drinks. The wine and cocktails were also good. Overall I loved the experience here.

    Chill and cozzy place to relax. Very hospitable staff, attentive and polite. Cheers to Gloria for that and to Gulam for the great food.

    Me and my friend went there yesterday only. We were told that they happy hour going on. So we drank some beers and order food. When the bill came, we got shocked!! Their happy hour means AED 5 discount on beer. They are cheaters, just using the methods for misguided clients and minting their money. Please beware if you are planning to go there.
