Drinking Dubai – are apps your best drinking buddy?
Drinking Dubai is a 4-part guide to using apps to find cheap drinks in Dubai.
As Dubai Expats and (most) visitors know, Dubai is relatively expensive to drink in – often 30 dirhams is an average price of beer in Dubai. Cocktails, wines, spirits, craft beers etc. all push the price upwards, e.g. Kopperberg in one Pier 7 ‘bar' is around £16!
Perhaps this is why our ‘How to Find Cheap Drinking in Dubai‘ post has proven to be one of our most popular?

Drinking Dubai – are apps your best drinking buddy?
Why use an app for cheap drinking in Dubai?
As the article shows, there's plenty ways to find cheap bars in Dubai, especially with Happy Hours and Ladies Nights. However, apps are proving to be an extremely cost effective way to save money on Dubai drinks.
Which apps will we cover in the Drinking Dubai series?
For now, we're going to focus on the main four apps that help provide cheap drinking in Dubai :-
- Entertainer
- Guzzle
- Cheers
- Zomato Gold
Why should I trust your judgement when reviewing Dubai drinking apps?
First of all, I'm British, I like a drink (or several) and I dread to think how much money I've spent in Dubai on drinks.
Secondly, we have a very clear Disclosure Policy and we stand by our reviews. We don't take freebies, and when we say it's a review you can trust it is. Read our ‘Why is there an Issue with Dubai Reviews?‘ if you'd like to know more about why we're gobby about this point.
Thirdly, I'm writing this article to try to help solve a ‘pain point' about drinking in Dubai. It's too expensive, but there's no reason to accept that. This series is not sponsored nor is it an advertorial, and no consideration nor recompense from any of the companies has been received.
Finally, Google Analytics and page visits tells me there's an audience for topics about drinking in Dubai.
Conclusion: Drinking Dubai could be your best drinking buddy, but it won't buy you drinks
