Berts Jazz bar among top spots to go for a G&T

One of Belfast’s best-known bars has been recognised as among the most popular places to get a gin and tonic in the UK.

To mark National Gin and Tonic Day on October 19, research was conducted by WeLoveBrum to find out who is serving up the best place for a tipple.

Berts Jazz Bar in Belfast’s Cathedral Quarter was the only spot in Northern Ireland to rank in their ‘Top 10 most popular gin bars in the UK’ list.

The list was created by measuring popularity through a unique index score generated by the number of hashtags each location has racked up on Instagram, as well as reviews on Google and Tripadvisor.

Berts Jazz Bar placed sixth on the list and was recognised alongside some of the most famous gin bars in the UK such as Mr Fogg’s Gin Parlour and City of London Distillery & Bar.

This is not the first time that Berts has been recognised for its service and offering. In June, Belfast’s only dedicated Jazz bar won an AA Rosette in recognition of the bar’s dining and bar service.

It achieved an overall score of 94% across both dining and bar service, alfresco surroundings and public toilets during its inspection.
