porters english pub

today being a weekend, i was struck with an unusual craving for some english breakfast which lead me to the porter’s breakfast menu next to al wahda mall (auh).

let me start of with the pros,
1.the waiter was very friendly and made sure i had everything i needed.
2.as seen in the picture, the eggs, steak, etc were all cooked to perfection and was well suited and flavored to put out the cravings i had. the sumptuous breakfast was enough to keep me full (im on the plus size side with a massive appetite ) until lunch.

i would definitely prefer trying it out again once again.


lets finally end the review with few of the cons that i experienced (ofcourse i speak for myself here and not for ones to come or to have already visited)

1.i was poured water out of a 500ml mineral water bottle without asking if i wanted any water.
well naturally this gesture would mean that its ‘on the house’ or ‘complimentary’ (obviously)

but things got surprising when the final bill popped up as there was an additional aed 15 charged to it.
the waiter apologized directly for not being able to give it as a complimentary addition.

since i already drank it, i chose not to create a scene there and kept the jovial mood undisturbed .

caution: a 500ml bottle of water definitely cost way less that 15 bucks so be on the lookout for such a miscommunication.

2.the glass in which water was served in had an after-stench of alcohol (probably from the previous night’s drinking.

for sober folks like us such an encounter may not seem to be left ignored.


nevertheless, the food was splendid but the customer satisfaction can still be improved upon.


must say that the hasbrowns are to die for!❤️

i love the vibes and the band today, however, they cannot maintain tables anymore. the moment we arrived until we left, the left overs were there. anyway. good band and just a good place to chill

well talking about this place, it was beautiful must hang out place with friends with decent music. and not to mention about the service top notch and the girl grace she was beautiful and treated so well and first class service.. totally impressive!!

nice beer & chicken wings. location is very convenient too. haven’t tried any other dishes, but i am planning to visit soon and would explore more.

was looking for some booze and it's ladies night, you get 3 free drinks, but they will only provide 2 vouchers, so feel free to ask for your 3rd drink. we also had dinner at the same time, ordered myself this steak pie, the pastry was well layered, crispy and moist filling of generous steak cuts, served with fries and string beans, it is easy to become a favorite. in addition, the buffalo wings tasted great, succulent and goes well with your booze.

excellent place to hang out... special mention is a must for grace, she was an excellent hostess, very warm and accommodating. good service and great ambience. good crowd too 😊😊

i went here alone just to chill and drink few pints of stella. downstairs is too crowded so i always stay by the mini bar. staffs are very accommodating. they're always smiling and very welcoming. great place!

it’s amazing underground sports bar , with nice music . the rates are reasonable and the happy hours is one of the longest in abu dhabi 12 noon to 12 pm. the bar manager mr george is approachable for any on going offers. the lounge is of wooden chairs gives a feeling and vibe than you are in south london . the food is quite worth the money. it has pool tables on the first level and giant tv screens for football and cricket maniacs. i am a regular visitor to the bar , and i felt it would be fair and justice to write a comment . this is the first comment in my life on a bar

so my friends and i got denied entry based on the fact that it was full which isn’t true .got denied cus we black..racist!!!!!!

great for sport and has a decent happy hour. bar food is some of the best i've had. suggest you give it a try. the only downside is the smokey atmosphere... i normally go when it's less busy and not a big issue.

be carful when dealing with staff and managers they not aware of offers and will make u pay twice know ur rights there before being foolish by unprofessional people

we are regulars at porters as we enjoy their happy hour, which is half off on selected beers and drinks.

the service is also superb. we would like to commend teddy he is really attentive to all our requests and makes sure we are more than satisfied with their food and service.

their food is also excellent especially the steak and chips and the buffalo wings. the price is satisfactory for the serving size and quality of food.

if you are looking for a night out with friends i highly recommend this place as it has a good value for your money. and dont forget to look for teddy.

it is a place which you would criticize and like at the same time. the security or the bouncers are damn moody. they might like you or they just might not. being an avg bar they for sure have a strict entry. bar not a club. once you do get through the judgment day you reach the first floor which has a real slow service and a bad collection of alcohol. the only fun part of this place is the lower floor. the live band, good service and the mature vibe might cheer you up. you might just end up singing with your friends and ending up having a good night. not a bad place to watch football though! cheers

convenient location.
cool and calm ambiance.
decent crowd.
timely and excellent service.
friendly staff.
garlic fries are a must try!
oreo cake in desserts ?

amazing ambience and a fun night out every single time! the band is phenomenal and the staff is very friendly and efficient
