London’s Original Smash-burger Concept Manna Launches In Dubai

Manna, the original London-born smash-burger brand with a loyal following, is set to open in Dubai at Alserkal Avenue this November.

Known for its nostalgic flavours and distinctive style, Manna has grown far beyond its UK roots, and the Dubai launch marks the beginning of its international journey.

Manna first started at Arcade in London, where it quickly became one of the venue’s biggest draws. With restaurants now at iconic locations, Tottenham Court Road and Battersea Power Station, the brand has a loyal following and has drawn critical acclaim. The Alserkal opening is the first time Arcade has expanded internationally, bringing Manna’s mix of food, culture, and creativity to one of Dubai’s most dynamic districts.

Dedicated to experimentation and collaboration, Alserkal is the perfect stage for Manna’s international debut, aligning the brand’s energy with the Avenue’s mission to nurture creativity and community.

Manna Dubai will debut a curated menu that brings London favourites alongside a Dubai-exclusive:

• Wagyu Kimchi Smash: (Dubai-exclusive signature smash) Ssamjang mayo, kimchi, seaweed, slice of cheese

  
  

• Classic Smash: Smashed patty, American cheese, mustard, ketchup, mayo, pickles, onions    

  
  

• Hot One: Smashed patty, hot oil, chilli cheese, pickled jalapeños, pickles, Manna sauce     

  
  

• Double Manna: Two smash patties, American cheese, pickles, onions, Manna sauce    

• Seasoned Waffle Fries: Manna seasoning, ketchup, mayo          

• Hot Flame Waffle Fries: Hot-flame seasoning, ketchup, mayo

The opening sets the stage for Manna’s next chapter, introducing Dubai audiences to a brand that blends bold flavour with cultural energy, and marking the beginning of its story on the international stage.
