Restaurants during Ramadan
By cykauchuujin •
I've tried to find answers in other threads...
I was really surprised to hear that even W restaurants are not serving alcohol in the evening. Is there anywhere at all?
I am coming to Doha tomorrow to catch up with an old friend and we usually enjoy a bottle of wine over dinner.
Any advise??
Meet your friend and take him to Dubai. And definitely don't have the so-called non-alcoholic beer.
Try non-alcoholic beer for a change....respect the rules here.
Ram, any alcohol brought to Doha will be confiscated at the custom.
The only hope is that your friend predicted your visit and stored up some booz at home...

you didnt learn when you came to Doha earlier?
"as liberal as dubai"??? They told you wrong.
All the * hotels will serve you alcohol......only if you are staying with them.....only in your room.
Aana free, jaana free,
Pakde gaye tho khana free.
DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT attempt to buy alcohol from the duty free and bring it here... they will take it =..(
thanks to everyone (except 120kpm@roundabout) for your answers. this is my second trip to doha and normally i'm in dubai when in the middle east, where they are still serving alcohol in restaurants from 19.30.
last time i was in doha quite a lot of people told me how doha is as liberal as dubai, because of the amount of expats there, so i did think that the hotels where tourists and business expats would be would make exceptions as they do in dubai. i have no problem not drinking, i am not much of a drinker anyway. just sometimes is nice to have a bottle of wine over dinner.
120kph, i don't appreciate being called an idiot. i wasn't asking for drugs or prostitutes or anything morally or legally wrong. i asked an innocent question about a city that i've only been to once before and your comment was uncalled for.
Never attempt to try it out in the street other than the enclosure of your home. Be it restuarant or hotel these moral police will exercising their ego jobs. If your friend have liqour permit why not ask him earlier on to buy few bottlse at QDC in anticipation of your coming.
it's the holy month of Ramadan. Can't you enjoy having just a tete-a-tete with your friend without wine? Welcome to Doha and hope you enjoy your stay here! :)
