A new food truck concept officially opened at The Creekside Hotel Dubai this week. Burgler began operating outdoors near Nomad Restaurant, introducing a casual dining option centered on smashed burgers and a playful visual theme. The truck is accessible to hotel guests and the public, adding a street-style format to the property’s food offering. The opening adds a relaxed alternative to the hotel’s existing venues, with an outdoor setup positioned beside the Irish Village.
A New Food Truck Concept at Creekside
Burgler presents a lighthearted burglar-inspired identity, expressed through its branding, menu names, and overall presentation. The theme stays playful and informal, without extending into a full restaurant experience. The food truck operates daily from 12 PM to 10 PM, offering lunch and evening service throughout the week. Its location next to Nomad Restaurant places it within a high-visibility area of the hotel, particularly during the cooler season when outdoor dining remains popular. The concept is designed for casual visits, short stops, and relaxed seating without reservation requirements.
What Is on the Menu
The menu focuses on gourmet smashed burgers, served in butter-toasted brioche buns. Burger names follow the concept’s playful direction, with options including The Al Capone, Bonnie & Clyde, and Pablo Escobar. Pricing is positioned at a mid-range level, making the truck accessible for repeat visits rather than special-occasion dining. Classic sides and refreshing drinks are also available, supporting the grab-and-go format without expanding into a large menu.
Location and Event Timing
Burgler is stationed outdoors at The Creekside Hotel Dubai, next to Nomad Restaurant and overlooking the Irish Village. The setup suits open-air dining during winter months and allows easy access for visitors passing through the area. The truck is operating during the period of the Dubai Tennis Championships, when foot traffic around Creekside typically increases. Its proximity to nearby venues places it within reach of hotel guests, event attendees, and visitors spending time in the district.
Hotel Management on the Launch
Matthieu Busschaert, General Manager of The Creekside Hotel Dubai, said the introduction of Burgler was intended to add accessibility and variety to the hotel’s dining options. He noted that the concept was created for both hotel guests and Dubai residents, offering a casual setting that encourages people to spend time at the property without the formality associated with traditional hotel restaurants.
Plant-Based Dining Nearby
For guests following a plant-based diet, Nomad Restaurant, located beside the food truck, is offering a Veganuary menu from January 1 to January 31. The menu features a range of vegan dishes focused on variety and flavor, allowing mixed-diet groups to dine within the same area. Burgler is currently operating daily from 12 PM to 10 PM at The Creekside Hotel Dubai, offering smashed burgers, outdoor seating, and a casual food truck format beside Nomad Restaurant.
