What are the best bars in Dubai for newcomers?

For newcomers, some of the best bars in Dubai include the iconic Barasti Beach Bar and the trendy Soho Garden. Expect to pay around AED 50-100 for drinks, and most places offer a vibrant atmosphere perfect for meeting new people. In my 3 years in Dubai, I've found these spots not just popular, but also welcoming for those new to the city. Pro tip: Visit during happy hours to enjoy great deals!
