A Curious British Pub

You don't have to fit in to belong here.

We open at 11:11 on Wednesday 11 November. Level 4, Pier 7.

Why we exist

Most people in this city are three thousand miles from their local.

Almost nobody in this city is from this city. Everyone here left somewhere else — a job, a town, a version of their life — and landed in Dubai to start again. Which means almost everyone here has done the same quietly brave thing: walked into a room where they knew no one, and hoped it would be alright.

The great British pub was never really about beer. It was about having a local — a place that knows you, expects you, and doesn't require a reason for you to be there.

So we built them a new one.

Three things you can hold us to

  1. 01

    The same welcome, whatever you order.

    The table drinking Macallan 18 and the table making one pint last an hour receive identical warmth.

  2. 02

    Funny, never smug, never at your expense.

    The humour is dry, British, and always at our own expense — never the guest’s.

  3. 03

    We’ll learn your name.

    A person whose name is known comes back.

Who'll be looking after you

  • A Misfit notices the person drinking alone and makes them feel chosen, not conspicuous.
  • A Misfit remembers what you drank last time.
  • A Misfit fixes a mistake fast, apologises once, and doesn’t grovel.
  • A Misfit would rather give you the honest recommendation than the expensive one.
