Why watch it here
Every seat faces a screen
There are more than fifteen screens around the room, not one big television in a corner. Wherever the host sits you, you are looking straight at the match rather than craning past someone's shoulder for ninety minutes.
Park and walk straight in
Valet is complimentary. Hand the keys over at the door on Sheikh Zayed Road and walk in — no circling for a space and no arriving twenty minutes into the first half because you were parking.
Central, so nobody has a long drive
We are in Al Safa 2, right on Sheikh Zayed Road. That is a short drive from Downtown, Business Bay, Jumeirah and the Marina side, which matters when a group is coming from four different parts of the city for one kick-off.
A crowd that makes room for you
Wear the shirt. Come on your own, come with eight people, support either side. Both sets of fans watch here and it stays good-natured — that is the part people come back for.
It is actually on, and the sound is up
We carry beIN Sports, so the match is on in full rather than a stream that buffers at the worst possible moment. For the big games the sound system goes on, and you hear the crowd and the commentary instead of the room.
Built for sitting through a whole match
The seating is deep, comfortable sofas rather than bar stools. Ninety minutes plus stoppage, extra time and penalties is a long stretch — you should be able to sit through all of it and still want to stay for another shisha afterwards.
Shisha right through the match
The shisha keeps coming for the whole game, and the kitchen stays open with it. Nothing stops at half time except the football.
