Brought to life by BRAG, Music Loves Company is far more than your average café bar. Blending the charm of a cosy café, the energy of a neighbourhood bar, and the character of your favourite quirky music spot, it brings something refreshingly unique to Dubai – a place to listen together, eat together, laugh together, and always be in good company. Designed for socialites, music lovers, coffee connoisseurs, and everyone in between, there’s always something to sip, snack on, or experience.
The Vibe
Since opening in April, Music Loves Company has been a place where the city’s communities can intersect and connect over a shared love of music, comedy, coffee, and good vibes. BRAG, the leading festival producer known for multi-genre festivals and some of the region’s biggest shows, created the space to exude the brand’s bold creativity and high energy. Part café & bar, part stage, and part social playground, Music Loves Company doubles as a creative’s daytime hangout and the city’s newest nighttime jam.
The Space
Now open in the iconic Expo City Dubai, Music Loves Company welcomes guests with its signature blend of retro aesthetics and modern design. Featuring rustic concrete walls, vintage rugs, towering music speakers, games and shelves loaded with vinyl from every music era and genre, each corner sparks curiosity and gets people talking. With its warm, familiar ambience and a mix of plush seating and inviting bar spots, guests can settle in for a fun beverage, catch up with friends, simply sit back and enjoy the the resident DJ’s sounds or catch a live performance.
Bites & Sips
Blending casual café charm with creative bar culture, the menu at Music Loves Company is as eclectic and vibrant as its space. Guests can enjoy everything from a coffee boost and refreshing juices to hearty wraps, colourful salads, and sweet treats like Floozie’s stuffed cookies and fluffy banana bread. Meanwhile, the bar features a playful cocktail list inspired by iconic lyrics, alongside premium spirits, grape, hops, and bubbles, catering to every mood and craving.
Events
Drop in throughout the work week and find your new favourite hangout to chill or visit at the weekend for a lively evening and discover some amazing talent. Featuring a flexible performance area, Music Loves Company will host a variety of performances and shows, including midweek happy hours, quiz and karaoke nights, family-friendly activities, stand-up comedy nights, early hours coffee parties and wellness mornings, and so much more.
