Every Tuesday and Thursday – 8:00 PM to 12:00 AM – AED 85 per person
There’s a particular kind of night that’s hard to find in Dubai – one where a live match is on, the food is actually worth ordering, and the setting doesn’t feel like an afterthought. The 44 sits on the 44th floor of Hilton Dubai Al Habtoor City and does all three without asking you to compromise.
Twice a week, every Tuesday and Thursday, it runs BBQ nights that bring together a proper grill menu, house beverages, and the kind of rooftop atmosphere that makes a midweek night feel worth showing up for.
What the BBQ night actually includes
For AED 85 per person, the deal covers a choice of grilled main, two sides, and one house beverage. It’s a set format, but the selection within it is broad enough that most tables will order differently.
The grill options:
- Beef burger
- Salmon fillet
- Peri-peri chicken skewer
- Hotdog
- Beef striploin
- Fish of the day
The sides:
- Green salad
- Baked potato
- French fries
- Grilled vegetables
- Coleslaw
- Fattoush salad
It’s a straightforward format – pick your grill, pick your sides, and the house beverage rounds it off. At AED 85, it’s one of the better-value BBQ nights running in Dubai right now.
Where you’re eating
The 44 isn’t a ground-floor sports bar with blacked-out windows. It’s on the 44th floor, which means the terrace gives you an open view across the Dubai skyline while you eat. The indoor space has a retro American diner feel – checkered floors, green sofas, red leather bar stools – designed with enough character that it doesn’t feel like a generic venue.
The outdoor terrace has a fully licensed bar, so the BBQ night works whether you want to sit outside with the city spread out below you or stay indoors closer to the screens.
The sports side of things
BBQ nights run on Tuesdays and Thursdays, which means there’s almost always a live match on. The 44 shows live sports throughout the week, so the timing isn’t accidental – the grill menu runs alongside whatever’s on the screens that night.
Beyond the screens, the venue has:
- A double-lane bowling alley – the highest in the world, 44 floors up
- Billiards tables
- Darts
- Pinball and foosball
It means the night doesn’t have a fixed endpoint. Dinner, a match, a few frames of bowling – the venue is set up for groups who want to keep going rather than move on.
Who it suits
The BBQ night works for a wider range of groups than a typical sports bar night because the food and the setting carry their own weight. You don’t have to be there primarily for the sport.
It fits well for:
- Groups looking for a midweek night out that has a reason to stay longer
- Sports fans who want a proper meal alongside the match rather than bar snacks
- Anyone who wants a rooftop setting without a fine dining price point
- Colleagues, friends, or mixed groups where not everyone is a sports fan – the bowling and games give everyone something to do
