Influencer marketing agency Ubiquitous have revealed the most Tik-Tokable restaurants and bars of 2022, with a popular Dublin restaurant ranking number one on the Irish list.

With so many Gen Zers searching for things to do and places to visit on TikTok and Instagram these days, the social-media led team dug through the data to discover the top bars and restaurants around the world.

Analyzing hundreds of the most popular videos on TikTok under restaurant-specific hashtags to compile a list of commonly suggested locations at the top of the application's algorithm, they then cross-referenced the list by searching the locations on TikTok to calculate their virality level on the platform.

Finally, they took into account the opinion of their own team of social media experts and strategist to help calculate the "virality factor" of these hot spots.

Topping the global list was Nusr-Et in London (home to the famous "Salt Bae") at a whopping 21.6 billion TikTok views, followed by Chula in Sydney, and finally another London destination, Luca, which closed out the top three at 11.5 billion views. Click here for the Top 100 Global list.
