Trader Vic’s Madinat Jumeirah
When you hear Trader Vic’s, visions of tiki cocktails like Tiki Puka Pukas and Mai Tais, alongside vibrant live music, probably spring to mind. But there’s more to it than just the drinks and beats—it's also a surprisingly fantastic spot to take the kids! The Polynesian-themed décor, with its intricate wood carvings, traditional fishing gear, and giant mussel shells, feels like a scene straight out of a pirate adventure. Our kids were just as captivated by the vibe as we were. Until 9 pm, Trader Vic’s welcomes families with little ones, offering a kid-friendly menu and an array of fun mocktails served in quirky cups. We had an absolute blast during our Friday dinner at this “pirate restaurant.” To top it off, you can pair the experience with a leisurely stroll through the enchanting Madinat Jumeirah, which itself is a wonderland for young adventurers.
