Fitzroy and fireworks: the perfect New Year’s Eve celebration at The Pointe at Palm Jumeirah

Fitzroy is a vibrant restaurant and lounge enjoying a prominent location on The Pointe, the new waterfront dining and lifestyle destination on Palm Jumeirah.

This buzzy venue – the perfect venue to view Atlantis The Palm’s famous New Year’s Eve fireworks – pays tribute to the classic bistro, offering an accessible menu of authentic dishes that symbolise European dining.  As with the best things in life, Fitzroy focuses on getting the simple details right, offering traditional dishes that are full of flavour, matched with an excellent beverage carte and enhanced with beautiful views from the wide terrace.

For New Year’s Eve, Fitzroy will welcome in 2019 with a festive evening brunch, served from 8pm, to allow guests of all ages to relax into a party mood with unlimited food and a selection of drinks packages, before midnight fireworks.

Whatever the day, Fitzroy is a new home away from home from midday until midnight. Discover Fitzroy during lunch and celebrate a unique sense of joie de vivre with an array of tempting dishes, matched with a selection of grapes offered by the glass. By night, Fitzroy transforms into an inviting space in which to spend a memorable evening as a group, or dinner for two. Guests are invited to experience the venue’s inimitable European charm, exploring the cocktail offering and after-hours ambiance.

The à la carte menu at Fitzroy reads like a roll-call of the most popular bistro dishes, to delight gourmands of all ages, supplemented by a choice of daily specials to reflect the best seasonal produce.  Begin with an array of well-judged starters that include steak tartare, bouillabaisse, chicken liver paté or salt cod croquettes to transport diners to the banks of the River Seine. Entrèes are equally inspiring, designed to embrace popular European ingredients, including perfectly grilled entrecote, confit duck leg or veal schnitzel, with signature sharing platters offered in seafood or charcuterie varieties.  

Those looking for something quick and simple can order a hand-crafted sandwich or generous salad, including the much-loved Niçoise or chicken Caesar.  And the best is saved for last, with a selection of indulgent desserts, highlights including a decadent crème brulée, crispy apple tarte tatin or a rich chocolate fondant.

Whether for a milestone celebration with friends, a relaxed business lunch or a romantic dinner for two, Fitzroy’s accessible attitude and commitment to simplicity and quality will elevate the every day into the extraordinary.
