The brunch at Envy was brilliant. My favourite was the pizza. It’s oysters were lovely although a shame there was no sauce. The selection of the buffet was one of the best I’ve seen. I loved the live saxophonist and was not too loud. The beach views are stunning and would love to go back when it is slightly cooler. The staff were very friendly and attentive and they kept the drinks flowing. The venue is really nice with a light airy vibe and felt quite nautical

Fantastic! I ordered the salmon florentine I’d say slightly on the small side and would have doubled the amount of sauce. I ordered guacamole and hash browns on the side: it would be nice if the dish came with a hash brown and avocado for 59aed. I requested some hot sauce and was given Tabasco. I would like to see a better option in the future. The eggs were perfectly cooked and they cook them to you liking. I started with a matcha latte that was sweetened to my liking. The star dish was the dessert. It was phenomenal! Possibly one of the best desserts I have had. I did not realise I liked I like lotus biscuits. The balance of flavours was perfect! I loved the salted caramel. The textures combined were delightful.
The staff in the venue were warm and welcoming. On arrival I was offered some refreshing infused water. The venue itself was a great place to have a coffee and do some work. I will definitely be back.

The staff at fetch are fantastic dog mad people. Our dog is quite a nervous dog and she gets so excited about going. They do events throughout the year and update their Facebook page daily with lots of photos.
They have a pool and plenty of add on should you wish to add a bed time story or extra treats.
