The Spaniel, the refined brasserie and bar on Bluewaters Island, announces the launch of the Not-So-Proper Brunch, a new Saturday brunch for those looking to start the weekend in style. Taking place every Saturday from 1pm to 4pm, the Michelin-awarded restaurant offers the perfect blend of timeless elegance with a touch of mischief.

Playful in spirit and unmistakably British, the Not-So-Proper Brunch is designed for those who like their brunch lively, their drinks flowing and their Saturdays spent out on the town. Set right across from the iconic Ain Dubai, the brunch is poised to become a new weekly staple on Dubai’s social calendar.
A Brunch That Knows What It’s Here to Do
At its core, the Not-So-Proper Brunch is about bringing people together. Expect generous brasserie plates, free-flowing pours and a soundtrack that keeps the pace moving from the moment guests arrive. A live singer leads the early afternoon before a DJ takes over, turning the room up a notch and setting the tone for a brunch that’s as much about the party as it is the food.
This is not a family affair, nor a drawn-out lunch. It’s a social, upbeat brunch made for catching up with friends, celebrations and those weekends that start with brunch and rarely end there.

British Brunch Classics, Done Properly
The new weekly event is underpinned by a generous brunch menu that celebrates British comfort classics with a polished brasserie touch. Starters set the tone with crowd-pleasers including Chicken Skewers, Sausage Rolls, Dynamite Prawns and the ever-popular Stilton Salad, designed for sharing and grazing as the table fills.
Mains continue the indulgence with hearty favourites such as Toad in the Hole, Fish & Chips, Guinness Beef Pie, Sirloin Steak Frites, Full English Breakfast, Chicken Tikka Masala and Cauliflower Steak. To finish, a line-up of classic desserts rounds out the afternoon, from San Sebastian Cheesecake and Sticky Toffee Pudding to Apple Crumble Tart and Chocolate Tart, best enjoyed with a sparkling glass to match the grandeur setting of The Spaniel.
True to the vibrant, quintessentially British identity, the experience blends polished brasserie dining with a lively, convivial energy that fills the room. The mood is confident and fun – the kind of brunch where the table stays full, the music makes you dance and the atmosphere does the rest.
Set just off Sheikh Zayed Road and easily accessible from across the city, there’s no reason to skip this stunning affair and make The Spaniel a regular dining destination.
