Tips for a Better Visit
Check prices. Confirm drink prices before ordering, especially whisky and shots, because one reviewer reported a very large final bill.
Choose sunset. For a calmer visit and rooftop views, consider arriving around sunset before the venue becomes a crowded bar at night.
Use parking. Ask about valet or use the underground parking; one review specifically reports valet parking at 25 AED.
Check themes. Look up the night’s entertainment before booking: reviews mention Arabic, Latin, salsa and Balkan-themed evenings.
Try outdoors. Choose outdoor seating if the view matters most; reviews highlight sunset and Burj Al Arab views from the terrace.

The Bottom Line
Hi Five Rooftop is a Dubai Internet City lounge bar built around rooftop views, music and social evenings. You can come for a weekend brunch, order tacos or pasta carbonara, and stay for a DJ, live band or themed party. The terrace looks toward the Burj Al Arab, Palm and wider skyline, with sunset repeatedly highlighted in reviews.
Brunch is more than a standard meal here. One Saturday review described hot, fresh food arriving quickly, including sliders, Greek and Caesar salads, pizza, calamari and brownie with ice cream, alongside unlimited drinks. Another reviewer liked the Arabic-style brunch, where dishes arrived step by step alongside singers and dancers.
Shisha, cocktails and mocktails are also mentioned, while the food reviews range from tacos and burgers to seafood. The mood changes with the hour and event: sunset can be relatively calm, while later nights bring dancing, live music and a busier bar. Parking is practical, with underground or basement spaces, nearby RTA parking and a reported 25 AED valet option.
Pricing deserves attention, however. A reviewer reported paying 45 AED for Pepsi and tea, and another alleged a 13,000 AED bill involving whisky and shots, so confirm drink prices before ordering.
