The places2 chosen by editors

Editor's pickCocktail bar

A compact, celestial cocktail room in DIFC for nights that deserve a little ceremony.

It earns a place on The Radar because it offers something Dubai does especially well: high-gloss hospitality at a scale that can still feel personal.

Editor's pickListening bar

Dubai's Japanese-inspired listening bar puts the sound system, record selection and mood ahead of spectacle.

For The Radar, its value is simple: it gives Business Bay a distinctive after-dark recommendation that is about taste rather than skyline views.
