African Lounge

Welcome to the glamorous African Lounge.

Located at The Galleria Al Maryah Island in Abu Dhabi, the African Lounge is an opulent sanctuary designed to transport guests on a captivating expedition through the heart of Africa.

This haven offers an immersive experience featuring premium mocktails, exotic cocktails, bountiful bites, sharing plates, and an extensive selection of Mariage Frères, the renowned French tea brand. 

African Lounge

At the heart of the venue is a bold and enticing dining menu, showcasing sharing plates like the Grilled Bao with Malay-spiced butter, shaped as cheeky animal pawprints and paying homage to Africa’s wilderness. Indulge in the Calamari Sosaties, a zesty twist on a South African classic, or savour heartier options like the masala-infused Prawn Arancini and Short Rib Sliders with a flavorful South African relish known as chakalaka.

For dessert enthusiasts, The Sahara offers a sweet symphony of apricot compote, cocoa nib shortbread, caramel chantilly, and apricot sorbet, while the Nyiri delights with a baked passion fruit custard, macadamia praline, and a tangy passion fruit cream.

African Lounge

The venue also presents a trademark selection of cocktails, adding a touch of sophistication to the experience. To Crown it All features Absolut Elyx, passion fruit, mandarin, kaffir lime, lemongrass, and ginger soda, while the enticing Madiba Fashion with Michter’s Bourbon, demerara sugar, aromatic bitters, and beeswax.

African Lounge unfolds as an intimate haven adorned in emerald green and splashes of gold, providing an atmosphere of tented luxury. The venue’s blend of indoor and outdoor spaces, including an outdoor terrace surrounded by lush greenery and a flowing fabric canopy, invites guests to embrace the glamour of Africa in every moment.

African Lounge

Forming part of the Flamingo Collection by Tashas Group, the African Lounge is open daily from 12pm to 11:45pm.
