If you’re craving French food with a Mediterranean twist, Bar Du Port is the place to be. The French Riviera-inspired venue is making its way to Abu Dhabi, opening its doors at Yas Marina. This will be the brand’s sixth location in the region.

Fans of coastal cuisine can now enjoy the same great food and atmosphere across multiple cities. The brand has recently opened a new location in Doha, and the UAE capital is next with the opening planned for Q4 of 2025.

The tagline for this new spot is “a little luxury, a lot of fun” — and that’s exactly what you’ll find when you step inside. Bar Du Port blends the laid-back vibe of the Ligurian Riviera, the glamorous spirit of Côte d’Azur, and the simplicity of the Greek islands into a space full of bohemian décor that feels both sophisticated and comfortable.

The menu brings French and Mediterranean coastal flavours to the forefront. Expect mouthwatering dishes like:

  • Escargots and oysters
  • Langoustine linguine
  • Wood-grilled octopus
  • Slow-cooked grain-fed Angus short ribs
  • Pain perdu with caramel sauce

And let’s not forget about the spacious terrace that offers stunning views of Yas Marina, giving you the feeling of being transported to a charming Mediterranean island.

If you’re planning to be in Abu Dhabi this November, another exciting event to look out for is the return of Open Fire Food Festival hosted by Steve Harvey. This popular culinary event brings together top chefs and food enthusiasts for an unforgettable weekend featuring cooking demonstrations, tastings, and plenty of entertainment.
