Already renowned as one of the greatest and most historic jazz clubs in the world, Ronnie Scott’s has always offered the very best in live jazz music. As well as the main club, the venue’s upstairs bar, known as Ronnie’s Bar, enjoys considerable prestige as a classy and upmarket place to while away the evenings in style, recreating the relaxed vibe of the ‘50s speakeasy.
