Bar du Port Abu Dhabi Now Open at Yas Marina

Bar du Port, the Region’s French Riviera Inspired Lifestyle Destination, Debuts its Signature Cuisine, Leisurely Sundowners, and Vibrant Nights on Abu Dhabi’s Stunning Waterfront.

Bar du Port, the internationally renowned French Riviera inspired restaurant and bar, is now open at Yas Marina. Set against the backdrop of Abu Dhabi’s iconic shoreline, the new venue brings the brand’s beloved blend of ‘a little luxury, a lot of fun’ to the capital. An AlphaMind concept, Bar du Port offers indulgent dining with the spirited charm of the Mediterranean coast, inviting guests to savour long, sun-soaked lunches, golden-hour cocktails, and nights that unfold into a lively celebration of music, flavour, and friends.

The new venue overlooks Yas Marina’s legendary waterfront and pristine waters – a setting made for Bar du Port. As one of Abu Dhabi’s most vibrant destinations and home to global-scale events, Yas Marina attracts a diverse, cosmopolitan crowd, making it the perfect next chapter for the brand. Inside, the space reflects Bar du Port’s signature aesthetic: an effortless, sun-soaked atmosphere layered with bohemian-chic textures and a touch of Riviera glamour.

At the heart of Bar du Port Abu Dhabi is its culinary programme, led by Executive Chef Hadi Saroufim. Drawing from the world’s finest seasonal produce, the menu continues Bar du Port’s tradition of French cuisine with a global expression. Each dish is indulgent, inventive, and designed to be savoured slowly, from golden hour to starlit dinners. Complementing the food is the signature cocktail menu, where fresh herbs, fruits, and imaginative techniques turn nature’s chemistry into striking, sensory creations.

Beloved across the cities it calls home, Bar du Port’s weekly programme now comes to Abu Dhabi. Ladies Night every Wednesday offers an evening of elegant indulgence, with cocktails, conversation, and the unmistakable warmth that defines the brand. On Saturdays, Brunch du Port takes center stage: a seaside celebration featuring a generous menu, flowing drinks, and energetic DJ sets. Together, these experiences capture the effortless glamour and vibrant spirit that Bar du Port regular guests continue to return for.

Bar du Port’s General Manager, Jacques Kassab said, “We’re thrilled to open our doors and start this new chapter. Bringing Bar du Port to Abu Dhabi is a milestone we’re incredibly proud of. Yas Marina allows us to connect with a new global audience in a meaningful way, bringing our signature BDP experience to a world-class destination.”

As Bar du Port continues to grow across the region, the Abu Dhabi opening marks another significant step in its global journey. With locations spanning across Dubai, Beirut, Byblos, Doha and Cairo, the brand has evolved into a cross-continental lifestyle destination, uniting guests from different cities and cultures through its chic ambiance, elevated dining, and playful sophistication.
