5 Best Fish and Chips Shops in Dubai (2026)

Fish Gourmet Seafood Restaurant sits right on the water at Jumeirah Fish Market, a proper seafood house rather than a chip shop, built around fresh catch cooked to order. It runs an outdoor terrace alongside indoor seating and keeps long hours seven days a week, closing later on weekends. Reviewers describe a menu that runs from grilled prawns and crab to full seafood platters and soup, with a kitchen that clearly leans into shellfish as much as fish.

Beach Hot Fish Restaurant operates out of a park in Umm Suqeim, with a terrace that looks toward the Burj Al Arab and a kids' play area nearby. It's built for families and casual groups rather than fine dining, serving grilled fish and the tawa fry dish reviewers keep coming back for. Hours run late, until midnight most nights.

Golden Fish Restaurant in Al Souq Al Kabeer blends Persian and seafood cooking, staying open into the early morning most nights, an unusual schedule for the category. Reviewers mention mixed grills served with live music at the table and a fish dish for two that comes with theatrical presentation. It reads as more of a dinner destination than a quick chip shop.

Fish Basket Restaurant, tucked behind Lamcy Plaza in Oud Metha, runs a seafood menu built around mega combo trays that mix grilled fish, shrimp, lobster, and crab with rice and sauces. It has its own site with a live menu and keeps late hours, open until midnight every night. Reviewers describe generous shared platters aimed at groups.

Fish Hut Restaurant is a small, no-frills seafood counter in Oud Metha where customers pick their fish and it's grilled to order. Reviewers over the years have called out the clean setup (unusual for a fish counter) and a lemon sauce that keeps people coming back. It's the kind of place regulars know rather than a big destination restaurant.
