Bar du Port is expanding its luxurious Riviera-inspired experience to Doha, with the celebrated Lebanese concept set to open at Al Maha Island in May 2025. This announcement marks a significant milestone for Addmind Hospitality’s global expansion, bringing its signature blend of refined dining and vibrant atmosphere to Qatar in partnership with leading hospitality name Aura Group.
Bar du Port Doha will make its home in Al Maha Island, one of Qatar’s most coveted beachfront destinations that already hosts several international hospitality brands. The new venue continues the brand’s tradition of selecting premium waterfront locations, following successful establishments in Beirut, Dubai, and Cairo.

The new Bar du Port Doha will feature three distinct areas for guests to enjoy the venue’s signature atmosphere: a sophisticated indoor space, a shaded terrace perfect for Qatar’s warmer months, and an open-air deck offering uninterrupted views of the coastline. This thoughtful design allows for year-round enjoyment while maintaining the brand’s commitment to creating versatile hospitality spaces.
Bar du Port Doha’s beachfront setting perfectly complements the concept’s Riviera-inspired ambience, providing an idyllic backdrop for everything from casual lunches to vibrant evening gatherings. The venue promises to deliver the perfect blend of culinary excellence and immersive atmosphere that has become synonymous with the Bar du Port name.
A journey from Beirut to global recognition
Since its inception in Beirut in 2016, Bar du Port has cultivated a reputation for blending French elegance with a cosmopolitan edge. The brand’s first international venture launched at Dubai Harbour in 2022, followed by a seasonal pop-up in Egypt’s Sahel region and a permanent location in Cairo.
With the addition of Bar du Port Doha, the brand continues to strengthen its presence across the Middle East, establishing itself as a leading name in luxury casual dining. The expansion reflects Addmind Hospitality’s strategic vision to bring its most successful concepts to new markets while adapting to local preferences and cultures.
Elevating Qatar’s hospitality landscape
Bar du Port Doha arrives at a time when Qatar’s hospitality industry continues to evolve following the 2022 FIFA World Cup, which put the country on the map as a global destination for tourism and entertainment. The brand’s focus on creating spaces that transition seamlessly from day to night aligns perfectly with Qatar’s growing demand for versatile dining and socialising venues.
