Finding its home at the luxury Address Downtown hotel, The Lounge is a relaxed dining space where you can enjoy lunch, afternoon tea and dinner.
The Lounge’s interiors are an exercise in cosy chic, featuring lots of textures and colours that help diners to relax. Expect plush grey carpet, marble splashed tables, glamorous light fixtures and royal blue accents, as well as an attractive outdoor terrace that offers up views of some of Dubai’s most well-known skyscrapers.
If you are visiting The Lounge, the obvious thing to enjoy is afternoon tea. Your experience will begin with a selection of savouries that includes avocado panini and beef sliders, before you move on to scoffing freshly-baked sconces that can be slathered with crème fraiche and homemade jam. Next up, tuck into a selection of sweet treats, such as chocolate éclairs, citrus tarts and raspberry macarons. Your tea is paired with a selection of loose-leaf blends, but there is also the option to add a glass of fizz.
If you’re visiting later in the day, order from the à la carte, which is made up of sandwiches, salads, soups and main courses. Keep things light with a classic Caesar salad, or indulge with the likes of fish and chips with mushy peas and tartare sauce or perhaps an Arabic mixed grill made up of chops, kofta and kebabs.
For dessert, you can choose a cake or pastry from The Lounge’s vast selection, or you can choose to try a more classic dessert such as an éclair filled with vanilla ice cream or strawberry sorbet with meringue.
A two or three-course Ladies Luncheon menu is available every day from midday until 3pm, while afternoon tea is also served daily. Visit after sunset to enjoy shisha on the alfresco terrace (open until 2am), with flavours that include cinnamon, strawberry, melon and plenty more.
