What User doesn't like about The Betsy:
This review is for the rooftop section of Belga Café, which has been transformed into a gin tonic bar (still owned by Belga and with similar prices).

What User likes about The Betsy:
Betsy is consistently a fun place to be with excellent drinks. They excel in gin, but also offer other options like cocktails and beer for those who aren't gin enthusiasts. I appreciate the creative touch of unique ice cubes in many of their drinks. It's advised to arrive early as the place tends to get busy quickly. View all feedback.
