Friday Nights Have A New Home
If your ideal way to kick off the weekend involves a perfectly cooked steak, crispy fries and a cosy neighbourhood pub, then you’ll want to make your way to The Spaniel. The much-loved British brasserie and bar on Bluewaters Island has just introduced Steak Frites Fridays, a new weekly dinner offering that celebrates one of the world’s most classic combinations. Running every Friday from 5 pm, the experience pairs premium cuts of beef with triple-cooked fries, classic steak sauces and all the comforting pub charm The Spaniel has become known for – with prices starting from just AED 149.

A Steak For Every Appetite
Whether you’re after a casual Friday dinner or planning to go all out, the menu has something to suit every occasion.
The line-up starts with a 200g Black Angus Flank Steak from AED 149, before moving through premium cuts including O’Connor Black Angus Prime Ribeye, Black Opal Wagyu Picanha, Rangers Valley “Black Market” Sirloin, and Black Opal Wagyu Tenderloin. If you’re dining with someone special, there’s even an impressive 800g O’Connor Chateaubriand designed for two to share.
Every steak is cooked to order and served with slow-roasted garlic and your choice of Naked Fries or Parmesan Truffle Fries.
It’s All About The Finishing Touches
A great steak deserves a great sauce, and The Spaniel isn’t cutting corners.
Guests can choose from a selection of classics including Bordelaise, Béarnaise, Green Peppercorn, Diane, Chimichurri, and Stilton sauces. If you’re looking to complete the table, additional sides such as triple-cooked chips, mashed potatoes and honey-glazed carrots are also available to share.
It’s the kind of menu that encourages you to settle in, order another drink and make a proper evening of it.

More Than A Steak Night
Set against the backdrop of Ain Dubai, The Spaniel has quietly built a reputation as one of Bluewaters’ best neighbourhood pubs.
Warm wood-panelled interiors, classic British hospitality and a relaxed atmosphere have already made it a favourite for its Sunday Roasts and Wellington Wednesdays. Steak Frites Fridays feels like a natural addition – another reason to make The Spaniel part of your weekly routine rather than somewhere you only visit for special occasions.
