Epitomising the effortless
elegance of the Art Deco
era, Bert’s Jazz Bar is a
colourful venue that’s full of
charm. If you’ve ever longed
to experience 1930s New
York, Bert’s comes pretty
close. Oozing style and
sophistication, and showcasing
the city’s best live jazz every
night of the week, the plush
bar forms an integral part of
the Merchant Hotel. The only
AA five red star rated hotel in
the city, the Merchant has built
a truly heavyweight reputation
– and so has Bert’s. As well
as giving visitors the chance
to hear great jazz music, the
bar serves sumptuous wine
and French bistro-style food.
There’s much to recommend
from the menu, including a
delightful charcuterie board.
The crispy hen’s egg, with
asparagus and pork soldiers,
is similarly delicious. After your
meal, why not enjoy a freshly-
prepared martini while letting
those smooth jazz melodies
drift over you? If cocktails aren’t
your thing, don’t fret: there’s an
extensive selection of wines
and whiskies available too.
The ideal venue for a romantic
evening out or a catch-up with
friends, Bert’s is an authentic
speakeasy from a different time
and place.
