There’s no shortage of places to watch football in Dubai. But finding somewhere that actually feels built for proper match nights? At The Croft at the Dubai Marriott Harbour Hotel & Suites, the focus right now is big games, big screens and drinks for just AED 17.
The Croft In Dubai Marina Brings Big Match Nights With AED 17 Drinks

The venue has started pushing a stronger live sports setup, turning itself into more of a regular hangout spot for fans who want to catch matches without dealing with overcrowded sports bars or tiny screens stuck in awkward corners.
There are six indoor screens spread across the venue. So whether it’s football, rugby, Formula 1 or tennis, chances are something is already playing when you walk in.
What Sports Are Shown There?
And yes, UEFA Champions League matches are a major part of it.
For many football fans in Dubai, that alone is enough reason to show up. Especially when clubs like Real Madrid, FC Barcelona, Manchester United, Liverpool FC and Arsenal are playing.
But the place doesn’t really feel overly polished or too corporate. It leans more towards that relaxed British pub mood where people settle in for hours, argue about referees and order another plate of food before halftime ends.

17 Years To Celebrate!
Also, the timing of this new push lines up with the hotel’s 17th anniversary celebrations. So drinks currently start from AED 17, which honestly stands out in Dubai Marina, where prices can climb quickly after one round.
The menu sticks to familiar comfort food. British-style dishes, pub snacks, easy sharing plates. Nothing too complicated. That seems to be the point.
Why Should You Book A Table RN?
That said, not everyone coming in is there for a hardcore sports obsession. Some people just want background noise, decent food and somewhere social after work. The Croft seems to be trying to balance both crowds without making it feel forced.
Right now, the sports screenings are ongoing throughout the week except on Mondays when the venue stays closed.
