It's a lovely place to chill and have fun. Happy vibes and spacious enough to have some personal space. Good variety of drinks available, food variety is average. Best time to go is when there's live music!

Had a little chit chat with my sister like since we only see each other once in awhile... we ordered this Hop House Lager and Magners - Irish Cider as top suggested by the bartender which was good... We also had Buffalo Chicken, served as pizza topped with onion leaves, a bit spicy which adds to the taste. Set of Fish & Chips with mushed Green Peas. Over all experience. Amazing as first timers. Visit McGettigans - DWTC!

Satisfying experience. Made it in the happy hour, got the Fosters. It was fine. Had the trio of homemade hummus and was outstanding. Live music ignited the experience. Only downside was the service, they brought the wrong bill and had to pay half the bill by cash and the other by card. Other than that we had a good time.

We have visited this place last Friday with my friends and we didnt regret. The place is spacious and the vibes are nice. We started our night with couple of white wine glasses with their not to miss nachos and edamame. Later we ordered the Mcguettigan’s burger and OH MY GOD!!!! The best burger i have ever tasted thus far. Patty is super juicy and the perfect combination of veal bacon and other ingredients. My only comment is that the lower part of the bun was soaked with juice which made it a bit challenging to hold it upright. Else than that it is amazing. They have a live band on Friday’s that plays the best songs! Well i would say it will be our Friday’s place to go! Cheers!

My favourite Irish pub of all time just because they serve you Guinness which is probably the brew that I crave for most. As with all outlets a standard format, polite staff and a set format of drinks and bites.

Apart from the Guinness I did have another beer as well as some potato wedges which were superlative especially the dip that they were served with. A lovely experience.

It's the perfect place to relax after a long day. 

Great one man band and a dj. The food is mouthwatering and never disappoints. 

It is quite centrally located and if you bring your car, you can park in the parking building at the side and get your ticket validated. 

Their Wednesday's ladies night is great for ladies looking to have a chilled out ladies night.

As opposed to the JLT branch this one is extremely noisy, because it doesn't have an outdoor seating area. They were playing rock music (a band was there) during both times I went there.
Food is average and overpriced

“The best drinking 🍻 buddy a guy could have is an Irish Girl!!! 🍺”

Been here few times, this is one of our favorite hangout place, especially during the World Trade Center events. Stepped in here again after the recent event and had some nice drinks and food.
2 drinks with a Sampler Platter and portion of Beans.
This is a beautiful, awesome ambience place, the staff here are friendly and attentive. I would strongly recommend you try once.

Looking for a place to unwind? McGettigan's is where you should head to! Synonymous to laid back, this is where you can grab a drink, lounge by a bookcase and check out some great live music OR head up the spiral staircase to knock around some cue balls.

McGettigans has an array of drinks served up over a brilliant set of happy hours with some great food to go. We settled on the Sample platter and finished off with the apple crumble.

The sample platter, priced at AED 99, had a generous choice of starters. The sweet potato fries were hands down some of the best sweet pots we'd ever had! The buffalo wings were spicy and quite good. We were served the Panko prawns. The breaded crust was crunchy and the prawn was fresh and moist. We swapped the pork belly for an extra slider. The sliders were a little smaller than usual but tasted rather good. The party itself could have used a little more seasoning but it was cooked well otherwise.

The portions here are very generous, so we moved straight on to dessert. For someone who's not too fond of fruits and fruit based desserts, I absolutely LOVED the apple crumble. We got subtle hints of cinnamon, the crumble was buttery and flaky, and the ratio of apple to crumble was just right. It was served up with a scoop of ice cream and was definitely the highlight of the night for me.

Service at McGettigans has always been great. Unlike many other places, the staff came around to every table asking for final orders before the happy hours were up. They took our final order with three minutes left on the clock and saved us from a deeper dig into our wallets. They were nice and attentive, without being overbearing.

The band playing that night were amazing! Great classic rock songs and some great company, I was sure treated to a wonderful evening.

After my meeting, me and my friend decided to catch up for drinks and what better place in Trade Center than McGettigan's. I have been there quite often but this time it was just for drinks. We both had Hoegaarden. 
But my forever favorites are Irish Stew and Panko Breaded Prawns.

Great ambience. Great service and such pleasant vibes.
The house band is absolutely amazing and the happy hours have great deals on beers like Stella, house wines and some hard liquors.

Especially crowded on Thursday’s but it’s worth the wait because the music is terrific.
You can park in the parking right next to this place and get the tickets validated and not have to pay the parking charges.

My review of McGettigans – this was a great place for me to enjoy the ladies night specials and delicious food. After 8pm, I was able to get 5 free drinks and enjoyed the live singing entertainment from the talented Mike Ross.

The French onion soup was delicious and was very hearty. The amount of cheese sitting on top of the soup when it first arrived was perfect. The soup was rich in flavours and had the perfect consistency throughout.

Panko breading is so popular with me and I use it all the time when I make breaded dishes at home, so I was happy to see panko breaded prawns here and I just had to try it. The breaded batter was crunchy and was not too thick or too thin. The prawns were delicious and I did not see anything wrong with this dish at all.

The super food salad was so vibrant and colourful which made it that much more appealing. I loved the carrots, pomegranate, pumpkin seeds, broccoli, quinoa, and the chia seeds as it made this salad crunchy. I ate this salad without any dressing on it just fine because of all the different flavours from the fresh vegetables.

The risotto was just perfect here. The rice was soft and cooked beautifully. The risotto was creamy and the pea and feta cheese made it even better.

Finally, I was impressed with both of the dessert dishes that I had. The apple crumble was so good, and the cinnamon balanced the sweetness of the dish nicely. I loved the caramelized apples and it was my favourite part of the dessert. The sticky toffee pudding was unique as it was made out of dates so the flavours were different and scrumptious.

This restaurant deserves a rating of 4/5.

I ordered the french onion soup for 40DHS, panko breaded prawns for 85DHS, super food salad for 64DHS, pea & feta risotto for 64DHS,traditional apple & cinnamon crumble for 35DHS, and the sticky toffee pudding for 35DHS.

The pricing of the dishes here are great for the portion sizes and quality of food.

The service was amazing from the assistant manager, Joseph, who worked hard to make sure our dining experience was superb. We even asked for tasting sizes only since we got invited but he refused as he stated that the pictures will not be complete, so he brought out all full sizes. The only thing that was forgotten was the water we asked for, which didn’t come to the table until we were almost finished with dinner.

The ambience of this restaurant was hip and very green to go with the Irish theme. The entertainment area was behind the bar on a stage so you are able to view them from almost every part of the restaurant.

Candice Walker and I are fairly regular here, it is our favourite pub for a few reasons: the service is amazing (big shout out to Yan for being exceptional) all staff are welcoming and friendly and keep our drinks full, offer a menu to ensure we are well fed. The drink selection is amazing, the atmosphere is great, it is calm and casual. And a huge positive for me is the fact I can wear shorts and thongs (flip flops). The food is good, the drinks are cold and the staff are attentive, full points as the summer all day happy hour just tops it all off.

McGettigan's vibe is amazing. The music by in house one man Band swings between amazing and forgettable.
We were there recently on a weekday and it was still full.
We ordered a sampler and the Pork Popcorn was absolutely divine. Cocktails were good and the staff had some good suggestions.

I have been visiting McGettigan's for the past few years and I've never had a bad experience here which is why I thought I'd start writing reviews on Zomato with this popular Irish joint.

The buffalo style chicken wings with a pint of chilled Guinness/Magners is what I usually get. The beef nachos are also to die for. The BBQ chicken wings and fries are nice too.

Furthermore, the service is quick. The staff are really nice and tend to all your needs.
The only problem that I've found with this place is that sometimes, the live music gets too loud and it gets quite crowded during the weekends.

On the contrary, if you want to spend a casual evening at a place with great(and long) Happy hour deals and quality finger food, this place wouldn't disappoint you.

Cheers!

McGettigan’s is an Irish Pub located next to Dubai World Trade Center. I have been here a couple of times and have always had a wonderful experience. They have two levels to party on and several pool tables to play on the upper floor. We ordered a platter that came with spicy chicken wings, sweet potato, sliders and a few other things. I fell in love with their sliders from the very first bite that I took. If you ever visit I highly recommend you try their food as it is pretty tasty. The staff are really helpful and friendly and are usually as hospitable as possible. Great place to visit on just about any day of the week.

A really chill out joint to have some finger licking good food over drinks. I am a big fan of their Loaded Potato and Fish and Chips.  Service is nice and the staff are friendly.  Its another apt place to chill with your friends.  They have an indoor and outdoor seating area.  But i have to say, once their music starts then your conversations will stop - it gets too loud.

Bar hopped and settled here for the last leg of the hopping journey and it was something I'd definitely go back to. We had some Merlot wine and some cider and dj set the mood for the night with some 2000's tunes. Really quick service and a wide seating arrangement made it a really great experience. Only disappointing thing was the outdoor seating being closed after 12 am and since we got here almost at 1, it was disheartening but I'll definitely go check it out again

Mc Gettigan’s in the Trade Centre Area is a popular destination as it’s the perfect place to grab a couple of drinks and a bite after work. We headed in here on a Saturday eve and gave their roast special a try. The interiors are cozy and, the wooden and green theme gives the place it’s character. There was a soccer match playing on the big screen and the whole place seemed so vibrant and absolutely buzzing with energy. The service is polite and the place has a very relaxed vibe. Here’s a look at the meal we had.
