Best Jazz clubs in United Kingdom

Great vibe. Great cocktails. Loved the live music this Saturday night

Great atmosphere on the edge of the northern quarter. Live music, great cocktails and a chilled out atmosphere

Went for a university event so was only us. The drinks were really well made and not too expensive, although not super cheap. They were made really quickly though and the people serving were really wonderful! The atmosphere with the music was great and I'd definitely go again. There weren't many toilets which wasn't ideal but depends how busy it is when you're there.

An excellent, inclusive atmosphere with recently priced drinks. The staff are attentive and kind, with a good reception in a table seated environment. The sound of the bands isn't too loud and allows conversation at your tables.

Really buzzy, busy restaurant in the centre of Nottingham with live music sets throughout the evening. There were six of us. All said the food was good but my lamb was slightly over salted. Service was really relaxed and friendly. Would go again.

Happy after my visit to The Pelican Club. The atmosphere and service was great, with a lovely range of drinks. The staff were helpful and the live music was a lovely touch.
The meals were rather pricey for the size, and the menu was rather limited, but the quality of the food was fantastic.

If you want a warm atmosphere, cool surroundings, tasty food, amazing cocktails and brilliant live jazz then this is the place for you. The perfect night out.

We had a fantastic time at The Fitzgerald. The bar staff (Matthew, Sam(? Sorry!) and Kat took great care of us, making up the great cocktails from their menu as well as anything we requested. Matthew especially went out of his way to make us feel welcome and sort us out a table when we arrived. The atmosphere was great, the a couple of brilliant jazz guitarists on stage who created a cool, classic vibe. Would recommend a trip here.

Me and my wife had a great time going for dinner on a Friday night. Staff were very attentive and constantly asking if we needed anything and refilled the water bottle every time it was empty without asking. Food was great and top it off the entertainment of the jazz band playing really made the evening special. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a special evening.

Celebrated my 40th birthday here Saturday night. From start to finish had a fantastic night. The venue were booked by my husband a fair few months in advance, any time he had a question emails were replied to promptly. My mum and daughter were allowed in in the afternoon to decorate the place. The bar manager on the night was attentive and made sure everything was OK. We had a drinks package, the mixers were regularly replenished and topped up. The singer on the night was fantastic and had everyone up dancing. The sore heads the next day were well worth it. Brilliant venue, brilliant atmosphere, and brilliant staff. Everyone njoyed themselves. Thank you The fitzgerald.

Unfortunately, after sending an email expressing a couple of concerns before Christmas I never heard back about my concerns/feedback. We went to see the pantomime itself which was fantastic. On a whole we went THREE times.

The greeting we had from staff when arriving was very cold and not partaking of a Family Pantomime show experience. The toilets were a sight to behold, filthy. Particularly the ladies according to my colleague.

In the theatre itself, there also seems to be very little to no control of children running around, particularly in the intermission and during the segment where children are invited on stage. On one occasion, it actually looked rather unsafe as admittedly, parents were encouraging their children to run up on stage with the actors whether they'd been invited too or not.. We had a child in our group that was asked to go up by the actor, yet sadly this child was nearly run over by other children being thrown up by their parents/family members despite not being asked. But there was no staff in the theatre to police this in the theatre at the time? There were no staff hands in the theatre throughout the show. Ruined the experience.

I have never left a review before. But after having emails ignored I feel this is the only option now available.

I have been to a few events at this venue including the wrestling and the pantomine and the playhouse staff seem very rude and don't care about anything.it was very cold.yesterday while watching the pantomime. the toilets were disgusting. Bar staff couldn't fault them but prices left a lot to be desired, it doesn't give you any incentive to buy a drink from there.

Went to see Aladdin the pantomine on new years eve. Was very impressed with the pantomine but the venue left alot to be desired.toilets were disgusting playhouse staff were rude and it was extremely cold in there not a very nice place I told the bar staff it was cold and they said they proberly got the back doors open not very good when you have paid to see a show wont be going again

I’ve been to a fair few events now and the atmosphere seems a little hit and miss, dependant on who is working the door/checking tickets.
The bar staff are all lovely and try their best to please their customers but some of the management team can be a little standoffish and rude sometimes.
It’s a shame because it could be a really nice venue and without the rude staff I would have reviewed it much higher.

Have been to a few events here, the bar does not cater well for those with children or diabetes, and on more than one occasion I have been charged differently at the bar for the same order.

The events were good, but the theatre management seems to need improving.

Visited for the bottomless brunch with the bad bunny burlesque, Compare was amazing sang some lovely songs and the burlesque acts were outstanding. Bar staff were great with keeping the drinks flowing. Food was hot and very tasty. After the show the performers came on stage for photos which we thought was a very nice touch. Thank you again will be back.

Great speakeasy style bar, tasty cocktails and good music. Went on a Wednesday and was a great vibe. Service was a bit mid but suspect it was just the waiter on shift that night

Julia Donaldson show, AMAZING!!!
The venue was good,not too crowded but in afraid the ladies loos left alot to be desire.
Staff were wonderful!

First visit tonight, the barstaff are absolutely amazing, the cocktails are some of the best around, the music is 10/10 and I have to say the door staff are so polite and professional one of my friends was drunk so they made her a hot drink and some snacks to sober her up...... we will all be back I love this place ❤️

We’ve been talking about going to this place for a while and we went and because we were 21 and didn’t think it was a problem. The bald bouncer was being rude to begin with, basically implying we shouldnt come in.

We went in anyway and then we payed and we went in and I wanted my friend to take a photo on the stairs and my friend was about to when one of the bouncer came up and told me I had to leave and was being really aggressive and told me that I couldn’t come out. Took me upstairs and was being abusive to me. As a girl this is really scary and made me feel threatened.

He had already given me abuse before but I let it go and he continued to give me abuse and luckily my friend told me leave it not for her I feel like it would of escalated and he would of hit me.

Don’t go in if you are under 30 because you are not welcomed.

Such a pleasent evening, staff are all incredibly nice, bar staff *super* skilled and efficient, door staff so friendly and easy going. Really makes the world of difference setting a relaxing mood for the evening. The bar itself is comfortable, softly lit and fully air conditioned all complimented by some wonderful music. Just a fantastic evening and experience and i highly recommend if you want a mellow evening to go check this place out. 10/10

Rented out the top floor for a function for 20 people. It was more than enough room and the food and service provided was excellent. Staff were attentive and just kept the food and drinks coming! It was a Sunday, so they had some live music playing and the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. Highly recommended as a venue and a restaurant.

Beautiful day at "The Wharf Restaurant "Teddington Locks.
Great setting, views, food, especially fish in many ways...
Good service and everything you would require to support a good experience. Well done to the team.
Come see and enjoy what I mean...

We visited the Fitzgerald as part of a hen do. The bride to be has always loved the 1920's and the atmosphere didn't disappoint. They had a fantastic lounge singer which we were lucky enough to catch the end of her set and then great background music that set the scene after.
Matthew made us all feel very welcome, comfortable and made some brillant cocktails. (2 for £14) would highly recommend!

Yet another wonderful evening at The Wharf. We go for the great food and atmosphere and keep returning for the hospitality - thank you Barbara and team especially our host this evening. He always remembers us! Highly recommended.

Hidden gem in the heart of Leeds. Phenomenally good. Superb service, fabulous atmosphere and cocktails next level. Live music courtesy of Rum Buffalo made our night. Will definitely be returning. Thankyou xx🍸🍸

Honestly, one of the best examples of how hospitality should be done, I have ever seen in my life. Everyone was smiling, friendly and attentive and it was not because they had to - everyone seemed to enjoy doing what they do and was happy to be there. The Manager - KP, is such a character! We made the whole experience personal and that much better - nothing was too much to ask, he made suggestions and orchestrated the whole dinner experience to match our evening, our mood and our occasion - he is an asset to your team! The cocktails were beyond delicious, food was presented and cooked at Michelin level, everything was just perfect. Well done KP, Stylish and team - you made our evening perfect.

I took my daughter to the Wharf in Teddington to celebrate her Graduation. This was a returning visit as we had been previously and really enjoyed the food and service. KP was there to greet us and what an amazing experience we all had. KP was attentive and remembered us from our previous visit which was over a year ago. He even gave us the same seats remembering we liked the view if the river. The food was amazing, the service outstanding and the atmosphere was absolutely superb, they even had a Jazz band playing lovely music throughout our meal. Thank you so much to the Wharf and all their staff and a special mention goes out to KP who made us all feel very welcome.

We had an absolutely fabulous family meal this evening at the Wharf. We had the incredible KP looking after us whose energy and positivity was contagious. He took amazing care of us, and the food was amazing! Lobster, oysters and lamb was just a selection of what we had. Thank you KP for giving us an amazing night. Also huge shout out to Nell for taking care of us and Stylish for delicious drinks from behind the bar. Can't wait to come back.

Great atmosphere, love a good bit of live music. Very quirky and cool venue. Entry was a tiny bit expensive considering the price of drinks once you’re in but ah well

Firstly, you saw a barbershop-like store, you might think you're at the wrong address, but this is it, there is a hidden door inside. Brilliant!!
The atmosphere is amazing, I really enjoyed the live music and still trying to find out the songs' names!!!
Enjoy your time here. Definitely I'll visit it again (and again)
FYI, at least for live performances, there is an entry fee, I don't know about other hours.

First time there last night.
Excellent venue and just felt superb.
Would have been 5 stars, but several people moved from floor seating area to tiered seating at interval as could not see very well as floor is flat and stage is low so not a great view if someone tall sitting in front of you. Also side banks on tiered seating has obscured view of stage due to safety railing to prevent you falling off edge of tiered seats.
Fully recommend middle area of tiered seating if you want a good view. Leg space just fabulous, which was real bonus for me as normally have knees hard against seatback in front in many other theatres.
Bar venue just felt great.
Thank you for a superb venue, and the show I saw was excellent too.

I watch the circus of horror here.
Lovely little venue. Happy and helpful staff.

An Italian restaurant that doubles as jazz venue. The food was remarkably good, on the whole, with the stuffed aubergines very tasty and highly recommended by the vegetarians in the group, and the pork medallions very succulent.

The jazz ensemble, a duo with the lead Italian singer treating the diners to a smooth repertoire, was nice and acted as a background music rather than being too intrusive.

Location I a quiet square of the Lace Market. Parking is extraordinarily expensive around the site, so use public transport if you can.

The host and staff were impeccable.

Two points worth noting:
- Vegetarian options are somewhat limited and the vegetarian pasta option rather dry
- The venue is more a restaurant that provides a setting for jazz rather than a jazz venue that happens to serve food. Lovely night out but would have loved a bit "rawness" and edginess about the jazz.

What a delightful resturant and bar. Warm, welcoming staff and impeccable service. We had a seat outside, which was idyllic in the evening sun and river views.
Our food was delicious, well presented. We had starter and main, we're too full to fit in a sweet!
If you're in the area would highly recommend a visit to this restaurant.

Our first time at this restaurant, what a beautiful place. We had a table outside next to the river. Very beautiful and romantic setting. There was even a jazz band in the background.

The food was amazing, we ordered the 2/3course set lunch. As you can see from pictures the food does taste as it looks.

Great experience, food was lovely, everyone was very polite and live music. Unfortunately on a pasta dish there was a big piece of plastic at the bottom so my sister only found it at the end of her meal wich was a bit discussing, we raised this with the waitress and recognised the food was really good, she appoligised and that was it..we where expecting at least some discount on that dish but no compensation for the mistake was made, we wherent expecting much since she only found it at the end of the meal but it would have been a good gesture a discount on her dish at least. We paid around £130 for 3 ladies plus tip, no desserts, 1 bottle of wine to share,2 cocktails,2 starters and 3 mains.

Amazing atmosphere, all tables are always full. Must book well in advance, luckily one of the staff noticed us and grabbed us and said if you want to sit down come with me. We got right to the front!! It really made our night we still talk about it months after. Such a perfect date idea cocktails are lovely and wine isn't overpriced. We can't wait to come back

Tastey food, with great music and brilliant staff. I would definetely go back. We had cocktails, starters , mains and desert. Everything was great except the ravioli i had which i was not the biggest fan of the sauce (hence they lost 1 star) , but that would not put me off coming back. Next time i will try a different dish. The atmosphere was fantastic and the selesction of cocktails topped the night off. Lovely restaurant.

Very cool upstairs bar. Nice seating for just chilling. We sat most the night enjoying the atmosphere and live band they had on.
Drinks were 2 for £10. So not bad. Normally would set u back 8 or 10 but deals are always the way for. Staff were friendly and nice.
Nice place.
