CQ French Brasserie

Experience the perfect blend of Parisian charm and the vibrant energy of the JLT community. Located in the iconic Mövenpick Hotel, CQ French Brasserie celebrates timeless French cuisine and heartfelt hospitality. The name CQ is inspired by "Le Coq," the iconic rooster that serves as a national emblem of France and a symbol of resiliance, prosperity and good luck.

At CQ, we bring you the classics of French dining - unpretentious, brilliantly prepared, and always offering incredible value. From our perfectly seared Steak Frites to our indulgent Pain Perdu, every dish is crafted with passion, blending sophistication with accessibility. We are your neighborhood brasserie.

Founded by Ziad Kamel, a founder of Couqley, CQ French Brasserie is created as an entirely new and independent brand. We are driven by a commitment to honoring French traditions while bringing a fresh and distinctive experience to your table. At the heart of the kitchen is our talented Group Executive Chef Fadi Naim, whose passion and creativity shine through every dish we serve.

Outside, a cheerful red-and-white striped awning welcomes you to CQ, setting the tone for the lively, fun-filled dining experience inside. Our covered and temperature-controlled terrace features classic French garden chairs, evoking the charm of Parisian café culture, and offers stunning views of the JLT skyline.

Step inside, and you'll feel instantly at home. Gaze through our French windows and flowing white curtains, soaking in the Parisian elegance of warm wooden accents, rouge and white stripes, and soft, comfortable lighting.

Our bar, a nod to Parisian brasserie culture invites you to enjoy fine casual dining, whether you’re grabbing a quick drink or indulging in a leisurely meal with a long list of well-priced wines.
