Brunch is Dubai's signature weekend ritual: a fixed-price feast, usually on Saturday afternoon, with unlimited food and a choice of drinks packages. Styles range from loud party brunches with DJs to relaxed family buffets and refined set menus with a view.

This guide covers seven Saturday brunches with confirmed 2026 prices. Every price below shows what the package includes, because the same brunch can cost hundreds of dirhams more with Champagne.

How Dubai Brunch Pricing Works

Most Dubai brunches offer three or four packages: soft drinks only, house beverages, sparkling or "bubbly," and sometimes a premium Champagne tier. The food is usually the same across packages; the difference is what you drink. Children often pay a reduced price, and very young children may eat free. Prices in this guide are per adult unless noted.

How We Chose These Brunches

This is an editorial selection, not a scientific or absolute ranking. We chose brunches across different styles and budgets and only included those with 2026 prices published by the venue or confirmed by recent reports. Brunches are grouped by style, not in order of preference.

The guide is compiled from published sources, not from personal visits. Brunch prices and dates change with the season, so confirm before you book.
