How much is a drink in Burj Khalifa?

All about The drinks which serve in Burj Khalifa

The Burj Khalifa is the world’s tallest building and it’s really fancy. If you want to have a drink there, you might wonder how much it will cost. In this article, we’ll look at how much you have to pay to enjoy a drink up there.

The Atmosphere Factor

The Burj Khalifa has many fancy restaurants and bars, like the popular one called At.mosphere on the 122nd floor. This place gives you amazing views while you eat or drink. But, this special setting makes everything more costly. In other words, you’re not just buying a drink; you’re also paying for the whole experience, so each sip costs more.

The Drink’s Menu Range in Burj Khalifa

When it comes to the actual menu, expect a wide range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic options. Cocktails may start from around $30, whereas a glass of wine can begin at approximately $25.

It’s worth noting that these are starting prices. Opting for something exclusive or vintage can significantly up the bill, pushing the cost of a single glass of wine or cocktail into triple digits.

The Access Fee

Some folks don’t know that you need to pay an extra fee just to get into some places in the Burj Khalifa. This fee is on top of what you pay for your drink and can be between $50 and $100. You might get a saved table and maybe a little snack with this fee, but mainly it’s like buying a ticket to get into a really special place.

Non-Alcoholic Options

If you don’t drink alcohol, you can still get things like fake cocktails, juice, and coffee. But they’re more expensive than what you’d pay at a regular coffee shop. For example, a coffee might cost you about $10, and a fake cocktail around $20. The cost is high because you’re also paying for the great view and fancy setting.

What About Tipping?

In Dubai, tipping is not obligatory but is appreciated. If you wish to tip, you could add about 10% to 15% on top of the bill.

Given the elevated prices, this means that even a small tip can add a significant amount to your total cost, further driving up the price of that memorable drink.
