Top 500 Bars has announced on the weekend the final leg of the new ranking of the most influential bars in the world for 2020 with the listing of the top 50 bars.

Top 500 Bars is powered by Le Cocktail Connoisseur a social media eco-system dedicated to bartenders and cocktail bars. This year’s ranking of 500 bars involved 105 different cities (compared to 91 last year), 52 different countries (46 last year), with new cities like Osaka, Reykjavic and Santiago.

According to Top 500 Bars Founder, Anthony Poncier (aka Le Cocktail Connoisseur),

To create this ranking, we have aggregated thousands of data about cocktail bars on the web, from hundreds of sources, in over 20 languages. We not only gather the opinion of experts, journalists and influencers, but also rankings, platforms and search engines that aggregate reviews from everyone to complete the set.

All this data has been processed by an algorithm to produce a weighted ranking of 500 bars, by the people, for the people. Because in the end… every opinion counts.
