The Bottom Line
The Four Provinces in Barsha Heights is a large Irish pub where the main draw is a properly poured pint alongside a social night out. You can watch football on multiple screens, join a Wednesday quiz, catch live music or settle in for a Sunday roast. The atmosphere tends to be liveliest for major matches and quiz nights, though a late weekday visit was reportedly quiet.
Food reviews are generally strong, with particular mentions for the Sunday roast, ribeye steak promotion, chips with curry sauce and a spice bag large enough for two. Deals are a major part of the appeal, including a reported AED 10 Tuesday ribeye offer and Sunday roast with a pint for 99 AED. Check the terms, current prices and availability first: one customer found several advertised items sold out.
There are important food-policy caveats. Reviews say the kitchen is shared between pork and non-pork preparation, and the non-halal notice can be easy to miss, so ask before ordering if that affects your choices. The pub is smoke-free according to one returning customer, although another says indoor vaping is allowed.
If driving, get the hotel parking ticket stamped.
