The Good Stuff
Large portions
Portions can be substantial; one review says orders often leave enough leftovers to take home.
Pub games
Darts and billiards add something to do beyond eating and drinking, especially during a longer visit.
Live entertainment
Live singers, DJs and themed events give the pub a more active evening atmosphere than a quiet bar.
British classics
The menu includes well-received pub staples such as fish and chips, burgers, chicken sliders and onion rings.
Brunch spread
Saturday brunch reviews describe a broad spread covering seafood, grilled dishes, breakfast items, salads and desserts.
Relaxed setting
Calm music and a comfortable interior make it possible to talk with friends without a constantly loud soundtrack.
Outdoor terrace
The outdoor seating is especially appreciated during Dubai’s cooler winter weather and for relaxed evenings.
Tips for a Better Visit
Check brunch. Confirm the current brunch format before going: one visit found the usual brunch replaced by a same-price set menu.
Avoid peak rush. For major match nights, allow extra time or visit off-peak, as one final-night visit had very long food and drink waits.
Use hotel parking. Parking is at the hotel, and reaching the pub involves going down a few steps, so plan around that route.
Choose outdoors. For a cooler, more relaxed visit, ask for outdoor seating; reviews particularly favour it during Dubai winter.
Try game night. Monday game night has included bingo with prizes such as drinks and AED 100, making it more interactive than a standard dinner.
Plan match days. If football is your priority, match days are a strong choice: reviews specifically mention the outdoor area for watching games.

The Bottom Line
Double Decker Pub is a British-style hotel pub in Trade Centre that works well for football, casual dinners and social weekends. You can watch Premiership matches, join in with darts or billiards, or settle in for live music and DJ-led evenings. The outdoor area is especially popular for match viewing and cooler-weather visits.
Food leans into familiar pub cooking. Reviewers mention the Buffalo Burger, fish and chips, nachos, truffle fries and calamari, while brunch brings dishes such as Eggs Benedict, grilled sea bass and Pavlova. Portions can be notably large, with one guest regularly taking leftovers home.
Saturday brunch reviews describe a wide buffet-style selection, live music and drinks including beer, Aperol and cocktails. However, check the current format before booking: one visit found the usual brunch unavailable and received a set menu instead, with the main taking more than an hour and arriving almost cold. Service is often described as attentive, but a Champions League final produced waits of over an hour for food and more than 20 minutes for drinks.
Parking is at the hotel, followed by a few steps down to the pub.
