McGettigan’s, the famous Irish pub, has just opened in Danat Al Ain Resort. This is a popular English bar and restaurant that offers a place to relax and unwind with food, drinks, and a casual ambiance for conversations with friends and colleagues.
We’ve stayed in Danat Al Ain Resort for 2 nights and McGettigan’s was not yet open at the time. However, this is something to look forward to whenever we have the opportunity again to drop by the greenest city in the UAE.
