Quick Answer · Dubai Sports City
A restaurant or café fit-out in Dubai Sports City costs AED 150,000–400,000 for a café/quick-service, AED 400,000–1,100,000 for a full restaurant, and AED 1.1M+ for fine-dining — driven by the commercial kitchen and MEP. Timelines run 4–16 weeks. F&B needs Foodwatch/municipality, Civil Defence (kitchen fire & gas) and building NOCs, handled in-house. Fixed price, 3-year warranty.
After 800+ Dubai projects we see the same problems in Dubai Sports City again and again. Here's what goes wrong — and how we fix every one.
Restaurants in Dubai Sports City need Foodwatch/municipality, Civil Defence (kitchen fire, gas) and building NOCs. Submitted sequentially they cost you months of rent. We run them in parallel.
Wrong extraction, grease management or layout fails food-safety sign-off. We design the commercial kitchen to code so it passes first time.
F&B MEP is unforgiving. We engineer extraction, gas, grease traps and drainage properly — no smells, no failures, no rework.
A generic fit-out kills a concept. We design front-of-house around your brand, covers and service flow.
