Ernst is expected to open next month.

Gearing up to open its doors in March, Ernst promises to be the intersection of Bavaria and Dubai. Located at the always buzzy 25hours Hotel One Central, it will be the city's first traditional Bavarian biergarten and wirtshaus, making it a novel addition to our list of weekend haunts. All the traditional elements of a countryside tavern in southeast Germany are expected, including barrels of craft German hops, warm pretzels, and German delicacies.

True to form, the quaint venue will be rooted in community, and feature a lively and inviting atmosphere where no visitor will feel alone. From unique stein lockers (yes, lockers for personal beer mugs) for loyal patrons to a private dining room where the schickeria can dine, drink and socialise, Ernst will bring the abundant social and culinary Bavarian culture to the heart of Dubai without gimmicks or schticks – only authenticity.
