Berts Jazz Bar encapsulates the sleek elegance of the art deco era, complimented by the very best in live jazz, fabulous cocktails and mouth-watering food.
Transport yourself back to the Art Deco glamour of 1930’s New York and the Jazz Age in Belfast’s only dedicated Jazz bar and restaurant: Berts Bar at The Merchant Hotel. Soak up the sophisticated atmosphere and let the cool jazz melodies wash over you. A handpicked list of cocktails completes the extensive drinks selection. A French bistro style menu is complemented by an extensive wine list and, of course, exemplary service.
Berts offers live jazz seven nights a week from 9pm as well as perfectly relaxed weekends complete with delicious brunch and all day dining menus from 11am and a live jazz pianist from 12pm to 2pm.
Please note that on Friday and Saturday evenings there will be a stage charge of £10 per person for reservations on our 8.30pm & 9.00pm restaurant sitting. This will ensure that the table is yours for the evening to enjoy the live jazz music.
Taking inspiration from a typical French bistro menu, Berts offers a sophisticated selection of mouth-watering dishes created by our Head Chef Michael Weber – from Chateaubriand to Moules Frites.
