Wanted to go as I had seen a Tik-tok video of this place. Went by myself to have a drink and enjoy the view and On top of the view, the ambiance and the drink what I liked the most was the security guy at the roof approached me and told me he was told I was there by myself from the bouncer at the entrance and to feel free to reach to him I needed anything. I felt super safe.

This is one hard working restaurant! If you are looking for a quiet place relax and enjoy you will find this place too intense.
However there will always be a need for a large, fast paced, good traditional menu type experience.
We were first thrown off by the busy pace and it took us some time to get comfortable with it, and the staff did a great job making that happen for us. They are friendly and kind.
The only well meant feedback we could give them is that they try and pace their intensity, and be more grounded so that they enjoy their own craft and make more of the interactions.

The "Money Rooster" (yes, that is the literal translation) is well placed by the Bank of England. Perhaps all kinds of topics on interest rates, inflation indicators and other money speak is happening on a rooftop, which has it's own notoriety.
The lifts which will take you up to a nice escape from the mess around Bank station. I overheard the lead of the wait staff on this day, speak about the prioritising the customer experience. Clearly, they are trying their best to help us forget the machinations of the world economy.
I like the restaurant's layout and decor, it is

The rooftop balcony at Coq D'Argent is amazing. The view is absolutely stunning and the venue itself is large, which is a great way to avoid overcrowding. The drinks were reasonably priced for London rooftops, although my friends and I waited a long time to be served at the bar (there was a long queue). The crowd is quite mixed, but mostly consists of people coming straight from work. The staff are friendly are overall you get a good value for money. NO ENTRY FREE! Just check in advance to see that there are no private parties going on when you plan to go.

Came here on a Friday night, busy time but a good mix of people, from regulars to business diners to groups of friends. Busy, but not overwhelmingly so - the bar wasn't overcrowded at all. I can see that changing when the outdoor terrace is a bit less cold. The elevators are inside the building - good signs, but you kind of have to know where you are going.
They have multiple set menus as well as the a la carte version, kind of a cool idea I think - makes the choices easier, and all/most of the items just come off the main menus anyway. We ended up choosing a set menu, and it was an excellent

YASSSS it's SO good for their roof terrace!
Long story short:
Service - good. Quality of the food -good but slightly overpriced. Wines - ok. Gin Tonics - well you can't go wrong with that, now can you?!
Ladies en gentlemen, go here for their roof terrace! Take the lift downstairs (follow the signs), go up and never leave. Definitely go there as early as you can as it gets quite busy post-work-hours and soak up the sun (and G&Ts). Do it!!

Came here for a work celebration and the best part was it didn't cost me a thing. Having no idea of the price and having such a great time with my work colleagues including free food and drink there is nothing bad I could possibly say.
Upon arrival we were greeted with a drinks reception, which was outside. Thankfully there were heaters to keep us warm. The staff re-filled our champagne glasses as we chatted away until it was time to be seated inside. When we got inside they took our coats into the cloakroom and gave us a ticket.
We were served 3 courses, starting with beef cheek ballotine

Coq D'Argent holds a special place in my heart, as my darling husband and I wandered a few streets from his office to find this lovely spot, complete with rooftop terrace and sweeping views of the City, when our first option was closed.
Admittedly, I'm a shameless Francophile, namely for the cuisine. I must admit I was not expecting such gorgeous food in this restaurant - their desserts are ah-maz-ing.
The restaurant had smooth, elegant service and the food was served beautifully. I would have to say my memory can still taste the dessert - their Bitter Chocolate Fondant (au rhum caramel

Coq d'Argent's name makes reference to its City location atop post-modern No.1 Poultry. You have to ride an elevator up, which is a bit hard to spot as it's somewhat tucked away from the street. Once you reach the rooftop, however, let the key selling point embrace you: the truly breathtaking and spectacular view of the City and beyond.
I came here with a friend recently for Sunday lunch, and for £28 per person, the 3-course prix fixe menu is exceptionally good value for City dining. I enjoyed the salmon rillettes, the glazed pork cheeks, and the cheese plate (£4 supplement)
