Ishraq Hospitality is thrilled to announce the official signing for the opening of Goose & Gander in partnership with McGettigan’s, bringing the authentic charm of a London pub to Dubai. Nestled at the Holiday Inn Express Internet City, this new venue promises to become a beloved spot for those in search of excellent drinks, delightful food and genuine hospitality. Perfectly situated in the heart of Dubai's bustling business and technology hubs, Goose & Gander will be an ideal retreat for professionals and residents alike.

Featuring exposed walls, modern furniture and cozy seating, Goose & Gander offers a relaxed atmosphere with a spacious bar, intimate nooks and an outdoor terrace for socialising. Guests can enjoy elevated pub classics like fish and chips and beef Wellington, alongside creative small plates, sharing platters and innovative vegetarian plus vegan options. The pub will also host live entertainment, themed events and weekly quiz nights, creating a vibrant community hub.

Drawing from McGettigan’s extensive expertise and reputation for a warm welcome, top-notch service, expertly crafted menus, a diverse range of drinks, eclectic entertainment and live sports, Goose & Gander offers a truly exceptional pub experience. This new concept aspires to be a beloved local spot for cosmopolitan patrons offering warm hospitality, all within a modern classic setting.

Ishraq Hospitality remains dedicated to delivering distinctive and memorable hospitality experiences. The debut of Goose & Gander upholds this commitment, offering Dubai’s dynamic community a top-tier dining and social destination.

Ishraq Hospitality is excited to bring a slice of London’s pub culture to Dubai. The name 'Goose & Gander' was inspired by the classic British saying, 'What's good for the goose is good for the gander,' symbolising our commitment to offering something for everyone. We believe Goose & Gander will quickly become a favourite spot for both locals and expats, creating a welcoming space where everyone feels at home,” said Joseph Karam, Acting COO at Ishraq Hospitality.
