Barasti, Le Méridien Mina Seyahi Beach Resort & Waterpark

Venue Info:-

Renowned for its vibrant bar atmosphere and its delicious cuisine, Barasti Beach Bar is popular with both residents and holiday-goers. Situated on the coast, its platform offers a spectacular view on both sides, with a stark contrast between the sparkling blue Arabian Sea and Dubai’s towering skyscrapers.

With two different floors, Barasti has an atmosphere that suits everyone’s needs and draws in large numbers reflecting all strands of Dubai’s population. Whilst the ground floor offers a more chilled, relaxed vibe with a live band playing old classics, the more energetic partygoers head downstairs where resident DJs get the dance floor pumping. This award-winning bar has without a doubt become an icon of the Dubai social scene. 

First impression?
This is not a place to sip finely crafted cocktails. This is a place to guzzle down wallet-friendly drinks with party-goers both young and old. Open since 1995 Barasti has managed to remain one of the busiest bars in Dubai thanks to its sprawling outdoor-indoor beachside location in the Dubai Marina and the promise of a low-key night to remember (or most likely, forget).

Cool. So who’s there?
On a typical night, Barasti buzzes with flip-flop-wearing groups of young and middle-aged partiers throwing back tequila shots. Entrance is free all year round, which contributes to the bar’s welcoming feel.

Worth ordering something to eat, too?
Expect a simple pub menu of bangers and mash, fish and chips, burgers, and pizza.

Wrap it up: what are we coming here for?
Come here to see a side of Dubai that’s more than just pretentious parties.
