Restaurants on New Year’s Day in Dubai: 1 Jan 2027
A different date from New Year’s Eve
This guide is for Friday, 1 January 2027. An offer for the evening of 31 December 2026 does not automatically cover lunch or dinner the next day.
Confirm the kitchen, not just the doors
Ask your chosen restaurant for its holiday opening time, kitchen hours and last seating. Regular opening hours are not confirmation of New Year’s Day service, and a late start should not be assumed either.
Brunch or a normal meal?
A special brunch may have a fixed start, drinks tier and prepaid package; an ordinary lunch may use a different menu. Confirm which service you are booking and whether children must take a package.
Send a clear enquiry
State 1 January 2027, group size, children’s ages and your preferred arrival time. Request the full quote and cancellation terms. Check the brunch guide if you want a festive daytime package.
Are the listed NYE offers also valid on 1 January?
Will restaurants open later than usual?
