F & B / — Restaurant at Hotel River Side Tbilisi, Tbilisi

In short

Tiffany Bar, listed on the hotel’s site under the heading “F & B / Tiffany Bar,” is the all-day restaurant and bar of Hotel River Side in Tbilisi‘s Old Town. According to its page, it is a chic, stylish room filled with opulent furniture, serving food and drinks from morning Continental breakfast through lunch, snacks and dinner, with a kitchen the hotel says is run by its in-house Chef. The venue sits inside a property that has won a Gault&Millau Award in 2025, on the right bank of the Mtkvari river, within walking distance of Tbilisi’s historic core.

It suits hotel guests who want a single, comfortable room for breakfast, a working lunch or an evening drink without leaving the building, as well as outside visitors drawn in by the live jazz that the page says runs every Thursday to Sunday from 8 to 11pm. Anyone wanting a quiet daytime coffee or a relaxed dinner can go any day; those after music and a livelier bar atmosphere should aim for a Thursday–Sunday evening.

The concept, the chef and the room

The hotel’s own description keeps things concise: Tiffany Bar is built around a “chic, stylish look and feel,” furnished with what the page calls “beautiful opulent pieces of furniture.” The food and drink programme is credited to the hotel’s Chef, who is not named on the page, and is described as producing “culinary wonders” alongside a list of “creative cocktails.” No further detail on the kitchen’s background, training or specific culinary influences is given, so travellers curious about the chef’s identity should check directly with the hotel or ask at reservation.

River Side Hotel itself is positioned, per its homepage, in the “historical, commercial and architectural center of Tbilisi,” on the riverfront and surrounded by parks, close to the business district and the city’s main attractions and retail streets. One guest-review line quoted on the homepage calls the hotel “probably the most romantic place in old town,” and another, from Tripadvisor, describes it as “the jewel in the crown.” The hotel also highlights a separate “Tiffany Terrace” experience alongside the bar, suggesting there is both an indoor room and an outdoor or terrace component to the food and drink offering, though the bar’s own page does not break down which seating is used for which service.

What to order

The bar’s page does not publish named signature dishes or a specific cocktail list, only the categories below. Travellers wanting the current line-up should check the live menu via the hotel’s booking link or ask staff on arrival.

• Continental breakfast — the stated morning service at Tiffany Bar, typically a lighter, Western-style spread rather than a full Georgian breakfast.
• Lunch menu — described only as a “full menu” option available once breakfast service ends.
• Snack menu — a lighter, presumably shareable or quicker-turnaround option served alongside the lunch and dinner offer.
• Dinner menu — the evening food service, running into the night and overlapping with the bar’s live jazz sets.
• Creative cocktails — the bar programme the page highlights by name, without listing individual drinks.

Menus, hours and prices

According to the venue’s page, food and drinks are served “throughout the day,” starting with Continental breakfast in the morning and continuing with lunch, snack and dinner options into the evening. Live jazz is confirmed for Thursday through Sunday, 8 to 11pm. No specific opening and closing times for the bar itself, no dress code, no seating capacity, no floor level or view description, and no prices in any currency are given on the page. Travellers who need exact hours, a full menu with prices, or details on seating capacity should check the official page directly or confirm by phone or through the reservation link, since none of this is stated and should not be assumed.

Reservations and practical details

The page offers a direct “Book your table” and “Make your reservation” link for Tiffany Bar. The hotel also lists three phone numbers for Tbilisi: +(995 32) 224 22 44, +(995 32) 224 22 55 and +(995 32) 224 22 88. The address given is Georgia, Tbilisi, 0108, Right bank of Mtkvari, Brosse Street Turn (the hotel’s room pages also reference Mari Brosse Street). No information is published about a children’s menu or policy, nor about step-free access or other accessibility provisions, so guests with specific needs should confirm these points when booking.

How it fits a day in Tbilisi

Tiffany Bar’s riverside, Old Town-adjacent location makes it an easy anchor for a day spent on foot. Before a meal, visitors can walk the short distance into Old Tbilisi’s lanes around Meidan and the sulphur bathhouses of Abanotubani, or climb toward Narikala Fortress for views over the Mtkvari river that the bar itself sits beside. Rustaveli Avenue, with its theatres, museums and shopping, lies within the wider walkable core the hotel’s own page references as being close to the “business district” and “retail hub.” After a bath-house visit or a walk through the Old Town, Tiffany Bar’s all-day service means guests can return for a late lunch, an evening meal, or arrive for the Thursday-to-Sunday jazz sets without needing to travel further. A G Tour guide can build a full day around this rhythm — Old Town and bathhouse in the morning, Rustaveli and museums in the afternoon, dinner and live jazz at Tiffany Bar in the evening — coordinating timing so the bar visit lines up with the stated music schedule.

Questions travellers ask

Does Tiffany Bar serve food all day, including breakfast for non-hotel guests?

The page states that food and drinks are served throughout the day, beginning with Continental breakfast and continuing through lunch, snack and dinner service, but it does not specify whether breakfast is restricted to hotel guests. This is worth confirming directly with the hotel.

What nights does the live jazz play, and is there a cover charge?

According to the bar’s page, live jazz performances take place every Thursday through Sunday from 8 to 11pm. No cover charge or reservation requirement for the music nights is mentioned, so travellers should ask when booking.

Is there a dress code at Tiffany Bar?

No dress code is stated on the official page. Given the described “chic, stylish” interior, smart-casual attire is a reasonable assumption, but this is not confirmed by the venue itself.

How far is Tiffany Bar from Old Tbilisi’s main sights?

The hotel describes itself as being in the historical center of Tbilisi, on the right bank of the Mtkvari river, within walking distance of major attractions, which places Old Town landmarks such as Abanotubani and Narikala Fortress within an easy walk, though exact distances are not given on the page.
