Brick Rooftop Kitchen & Bar

Brick Rooftop Kitchen & Bar is an evening dining venue at Aloft Hotel beside the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre. Set on the rooftop, it pairs an international menu with a relaxed restaurant-and-bar format and views across the city. The setting gives dinner a distinct sense of height, with sunset forming part of the experience.

The kitchen focuses on rustic, oven-baked food with a warm, hearty character. Its menu also includes vegan specialties, giving plant-based diners a clear part of the offering rather than a single afterthought. The overall style is casual enough for an unhurried evening meal while retaining the polished feel of a hotel rooftop venue.

Brick suits diners seeking food with a homemade, oven-led character in a rooftop setting. It works for an evening meal, drinks around the bar area, or a relaxed gathering where the view and atmosphere matter alongside the food. The international approach gives the menu broad appeal, while the rustic presentation keeps the experience grounded and informal.

The venue’s rooftop position makes the changing light especially relevant to the dining atmosphere. Earlier evening visits connect with the sunset city views, while later visits offer a more settled night-time setting. The restaurant is listed with a smart-casual dress code, making that standard suitable for the venue’s hotel-based setting.

Brick is part of Aloft Hotel’s wider dining selection, but its rooftop location and oven-baked focus give it a distinct identity. The combination of international flavours, vegan options, rustic cooking and elevated city views provides a straightforward choice for an evening in Abu Dhabi, particularly for diners looking beyond conventional lobby or all-day dining spaces.
