    Pier 7

    Explore Pier 7 in Dubai Marina, with seven restaurants and bars, waterfront terraces and a rooftop bar for drinks, music and skyline views.

    Pier 7 is a multi-level dining complex on Dubai Marina’s waterfront, with seven restaurants and bars, each with its own style and menu. Come for dinner with marina views, or make your way to the rooftop bar for drinks and music. The choice spans relaxed meals to upscale dining; names include Cargo, Asia Asia, Atelier M, Elaia and Mama Zonia. For a seat overlooking the water, ask about outdoor terrace or balcony seating when you book.

    Seven restaurants in one building

    Pier 7 brings seven restaurants and bars together in a multi-level building on the Dubai Marina waterfront. Each has its own menu and atmosphere, so you can choose between a meal, drinks or a livelier night out without changing venues. Cargo is known for its energetic evening scene and industrial-style interior. Other names in the building include Asia Asia, Atelier M, Elaia and Mama Zonia.

    The menus vary across the complex. Sushi, steak tartare, mojitos, martinis and beer are among the options associated with Pier 7. The Scene by Simon Rimmer serves British pub food, including fish and chips, and is on the fourth floor.

    Terraces and the rooftop bar

    Marina views are a main reason to visit. Several restaurants have outdoor terrace seating, and balcony tables are available at some venues. Ask about seating when you book if you want to dine outdoors; the setting and atmosphere can differ from one restaurant to another.

    The rooftop bar is a separate option for drinks and music, with views over the water. Cargo suits a more energetic evening, while the rooftop can be a place to settle in with a drink. Pier 7 stays open late, so it can work for a night out as well as dinner.

    Choosing a restaurant

    Pick a venue by the kind of evening you want: Cargo for food, drinks and a lively setting; Mama Zonia for its tropical-inspired decor and music; or The Scene for British pub dishes. Elaia has outdoor terrace seating overlooking the Marina. The different styles make Pier 7 useful for groups who want to meet in one place but may prefer different dining moods.

    Tuesday ladies’ nights include deals at different restaurants in the building. The details vary by venue, so check with the restaurant before making plans.
