Porto Arabia is 5-10 mins walk away and you can walk around the Marina there for a variety of restaurants, shops and coffee shots. Another Monoprix (smaller) and a couple of convenience stores.
There is also The Hub and some of the restaurants are amazing whether you are a family (Shakespeares accommodates families very well) or on your own.

Buzzing with people - especially on the weekends. All types of food and shisha is available if that is your thing.

Food scene
This is probably my favorite restaurant on the Pearl. 5 mins walk from the apartment for fantastic Turkish cuisine at a reasonable price.
Hasan Kolcuoglu Restaurant
Alhambra StThis is probably my favorite restaurant on the Pearl. 5 mins walk from the apartment for fantastic Turkish cuisine at a reasonable price.
Toro Toro is an Argentinian-style steak house that offers an excellent Friday brunch - all you can eat Gaucho-style and unlimited drinks if you wish. Nice views and great service but dress a little more - shorts and flip-flops are not usually allowed.

Lifestyle Hotel
The Mondrian Hotel is about 5-10 mins by car / Uber from the apartment. It has everything from the Wolfgang Puck steakhouse (breakfast, lunch and dinner) to Hudson's for American-style food and bar and Walima with a beautiful terrace with excellent food (and shisha if that is your thing).
More important, the staff are wonderful, caring and attentive. Go there a few times and you will know them by name - and they will know you too.
CUT does an excellent Friday brunch and Morrimoto has a world-class Japanese brunch on Saturdays.

Great food at their three outside restaurants - brunch on Fridays at Toro Toro (Gaucho-style Argentinian means). Great bar above from 7pm.
