From the city that brought you Cereal Killer Café, where it’s cool to be seen tucking into a bowl of Lucky Charms at 4pm, the East End London inspired venue is bringing in their very own quirk to Dubai, in the form of ‘freakshakes’.
Having become 2016’s biggest food trend, The Black Lion Dubai certainly knows how to stand out from the international crowd with their offering. Served in trendy mason jars these dessert drinks are overflowing with lashings of cream, chocolate and caramel sauce – and are perfect for pulling in those credible Instagram likes.
The Pistachio & White Chocolate is a sickly favourite and with a blondie carefully balanced within the jar you’re unsure which part to tackle first, whilst the Raspberry Eton mess oozes cream and puree, topped with chunks of meringue. With six options on the menu you’re bound to pick a favourite but don’t judge your freakshake by their doughnut balls until you’ve tried them all.
…And if you’re looking for something a little out of the ordinary, you can always ask your barman for the ‘Irish twist’.

Strawberry & Jam Doughnut, Pistachio & White Chocolate, Blondie, Raspberry Eton Mess, Maple & Pecan with Slice of Tart, Caramel & Banoffee and Chocolate Milkshake with Cookies.
