The Butcher is coming
to Dubai
Dubai's status as the foodie capital of the
Middle East is set to receive a serious boost
with the opening of The Butcher.
Soon to launch in the heart of Dubai's
Marina Walk promenade on the ground floor
of The Residences at Marina Gate by Select
Group, The Butcher will serve up mouth-
watering Prime Angus beef burgers and steaks,
hearty fries and much more.
Far from your run-of-the-mill burger
restaurant, The Butcher has been serving the
finest cuts of meat, freshest vegetables,
signature sauces and home-made semi-brioche
style buns to food lovers in Amsterdam, Berlin
and Ibiza since 2012.
Working exclusively with Prime Angus beef,
The Butcher's teams of highly trained chefs
consistently create exceptional burgers and
steaks for meat lovers who appreciate simple,
but delicious, cooking.
Originating in Amsterdam's famous Albert
Cuyp market, The Butcher quickly caught the
attention of the city's foodies and restaurant
lovers in the know.
D&T Group, Dubai's leading hospitality
company, has partnered with Holland-based
The Entourage Group to introduce The Butcher
to Dubai.
