The Dubliner’s, the Irish pub at Le Méridien Dubai Hotel & Conference Centre, has launched Scrum & Sip, a match day offer built around special deals, sharing platters and live entertainment. It is available from October to November 2026, and the pub is inviting guests to gather their crew, wear their team colours and celebrate every try.
Platters for the whole table
The offer centres on sharing boards. A Platter and 2L Jug Combo costs AED 320, and four team-inspired boards cost AED 165 each. They are named after national rugby sides, and each comes with sauces and fries or chips.
The Wallabies BBQ Board has BBQ beef skewers, lamb chops, chicken wings and grilled corn ribs. Les Bleus Board offers mini fried chicken burgers, steak skewers, Camembert bites and truffle arancini. The All Blacks Feast brings slow-cooked beef sliders, lamb sausage bites, fried chicken pieces and mini meat pies, while the Red Rose Platter has Scotch eggs, sausage rolls, beer-battered fish bites and chicken tenders. Prices include the 10% service charge, 7% municipality fees and 5% VAT.
The release does not say which matches are shown or what the live entertainment will be, so it is worth asking when you book.
The regular line-up
The Dubliner’s also runs its evergreen offers through the week. The Nook serves its spice bags daily, packed with crispy fries, seasoned chicken and a blend of spices. Quiz Nights run every Tuesday from 8pm to 11pm, with prizes to win and up to 40% off food and beverages for teachers.
On Sundays, the Sunday Roast Carvery runs from 1pm to 5pm, with beef, roasted crackling, Yorkshire puddings, roast potatoes, seasonal vegetables and gravy. It costs AED 135 for unlimited food and soft drinks, or AED 235 for unlimited food with bottled beers and house drinks, consumable for up to three hours within the window.
