They’ve put a lot of effort into The Garage. While most bars are content with sticking in sanitised, Ikea-esque furniture and charging the earth, The Garage has taken a wholly different approach – filling its expansive interior full of decommissioned vintage cars, sawing their roofs off and replacing the big leather seats with tables and chairs.

Once you are safely ensconced, you can then choose a Dhs25 cocktail from the bar at the back (which is in a bus) and settle down with some complimentary popcorn to watch the African band, who could do with some better tunes, although the female dancers are always likely to be a stronger draw anyway. This place seems to be full every night of the week, which makes you wonder: don’t these people have jobs to go to in the morning?
