Spend the summer aboard Yacht d’Argent

This summer, Coq d’Argent will transform its bar and stunning outdoor terrace into a luxurious French Riviera-inspired retreat – Yacht d’Argent.  

Tying in with the original architecture of 1 Poultry, which nods to the design of a ship’s bow, Yacht d’Argent will evoke the opulent summer scene of the lavish super yachts moored along the French Riviera. Taking residency in the bar and its adjacent terrace garden, Yacht d’Argent will boast jet-set glamour with vast white canopies reflecting the sails of luxe yachts and a dedicated Captain’s cabin-inspired wall, adorned with a traditional wooden wheel and vintage posters.

Head chef Mickael Weiss will be creating a decadent grill menu inspired by the extravagance of the Riviera, including indulgent seafood spins on French and summer favourites, such as Scallop Croque Monsieur, Cray-Fish & chips and Crab cocktails. At the bar, a more relaxed and informal menu will nod to the gourmet junk food trend, with Deep-fried calamari and tartar sauce and Crab fritters available to share. 

The bar at Yacht d’Argent will focus heavily on champagne, with a special display of magnums, imperials, jeroboams and Balthazar bottles, as well as a dedicated sparkling champagne cocktail list compiled by bar manager Pawel Rolka. Including South Breeze (La Quintinye Vermouth Royal with fresh thyme, lemon and champagne) and French 75 (gin with lemon, white sugar and champagne), the drinks list will also feature champagne-free options such as Riviera (Byrhh French vermouth, bitter lemon and seasonal fruit) and French Sour (Armagnac with lemon juice, crème de peche liquor, white wine and egg white).

Taking residency from the beginning of May through to September, guests will be able to relax and unwind with friends and partners alike, treating themselves to the luxury of an extravagant holiday in the French Riviera. Similarly, those looking to celebrate this summer will find the perfect party atmosphere beneath the sails of the super-yacht-inspired rooftop retreat.
