It's approximately halfway between Marina and Downtown and it satisfies Meow's requirements for no New Dubai. Easy to get a taxi there, easy to get a taxi out of there. Smoking allowed. Plenty of tables. Good beer. Any problems?

Since when is Madinat Jumeirah midway between the Marina and Downtown? Anyway, it seems that The Stables has already been selected.

I watched the Toon v Liverpool game in there the other week, decent place, decent beer, SHIT bar staff.

You know the alley that takes you to Fibbers? Well Fibbers is on the right and the Stables on the left.

Not in a hotel - a sort of stand-alone place (like Fibbers).

By the way - don't get them mixed up. At Fibbers you are likely to get your face punched. Dreadful place these days.
