Sophistication, intimate with breath-taking views - these are the things that spring to mind when I remember my trip to Uptown. Plonked on the 24th Floor of the Jumeirah Beach Hotel, Uptown is the perfect spot to wind down after work or gear up for a night out. The space comprises of both indoor and outdoor seating, the indoor being narrow and dark, leading out to an intimate area outside with lounge sitting, high stools and the odd romantic table for two. In my eyes its most definitely a cocktails bar, however Uptown does offer a variety of small nibbles, the perfect amount to line ones stomach whilst sinking many a delicious martini. The al fresco seating not only looks over the Burj Al Arab but also stretches out over downtown Dubai giving great views of the sky line and a perfect place for sunny d's.
The staff are friendly, and come armed with compliment snacks comprising of nuts, olives and a delightful sort of crisp, however, the service is slow so be prepared to wait a while for your bevvies.
To note: great for birthday drinks or large group bookings, but please be sure to book in advance!
