Choose the activity as well as the table
Brass Monkey’s bowling, arcade, VR and billiards make it an activity-led adult option. Book or enquire using the current Bluewaters operator route and specify whether you need a dining table, a lane or a group event.
A table reservation is not proof of an available game at a particular time. Ask for the current game charge, duration, group capacity and arrival arrangement before making the activity the evening’s fixed point.

Use the current operator rules and separate costs
The current operator booking link explicitly states 21 and over only. The Bluewaters directory publishes late opening hours; confirm your actual arrival and finish with the venue and arrange transport for that time.
Current food/drink offers have their own day, inclusions and price. Do not treat an offer as unlimited games or whole-night admission. Confirm age/ID, dress, spend and cancellation conditions on the current reservation route.

Keep a second dining format and landmark plans separate
L’ETO at Bluewaters’ Wharf is a separate all-day café/restaurant for coffee, cakes and meals. It can suit a food-focused visit without committing the party to Brass Monkey’s adult activity format.
If Ain Dubai is part of the plan, check its current operation and book the chosen time separately. Set a named island pickup and allow for the actual dinner/game finish; neither a meal nor a games reservation includes another attraction.

Planning questions
Can children join Brass Monkey?
Its current Bluewaters booking route says 21 and over only. Choose another island dining format for a different party.
Does reserving dinner secure bowling?
Do not assume it does. Confirm the actual lane/game arrangement, charge and start time through the current operator booking route.
