Buda Bar
Although there are enough Buddha Bars in the world to start a religion, this is certainly a nice addition to Tirana's nightlife scene; a dimly lit lounge with ottomans and couches to flop around on. There's good ventilation, Indian wooden screens, chilled-out music, and attentive staff. [...]

Rr. Ismail Qemali, Blloku

Open:
17:00-01:00
Bulevard Café
Inspired by Tirana and the letter B (note the shape of the café), the Bulevard is a great night option serving drinks to a thirtyish crowd on the third floor of the twin towers. Sit at the bar under a ceiling with photos of Old Tirana, or hang out in the curious booths lining the walls. Try to [...]

Open:
07:30-02:00
Sunday:

Cameleon
A compact and modern bar in a riot of bright primary colours, Cameleon's novelty is the everchanging display of multi-coloured lights throughout the evening. It's a little hard to tell what's in your glass when everything shifts from blue to orange, but its less annoying than you m [...]

Canon
Let’s rock! In chilled style, in a narrow dog’s leg room painted bright orange you will find Tirana’s indie-rock youth packed in tighter than the socks in Lenny Kravitz’s flared rock star trousers. [...]

Open:

Charl's Bistro
An eclectic, fashionable thirtyish crowd populates this fantastic lounge bar with 1960s-80s inspired music in the bllok area. The somewhat oddly spelt Charl's regularly puts on live music acts from across the region and various other events from Thursday to Saturday, but the cocktail bar in the lush small garden spits out great drinks all week. [...]

Converse
In the basement beside the Harley Davidson, the students, artists and intellectuals that visit this tiny 'social club' to sip coffee and play chess seem the opposites of the loud hairy men slamming shots next door. A good place to pick up conversation with young Tiranians, recite poetry or [...]

Open:
09:00-03:00
Diesel
The name and sign may remind you of a certain fashion brand, an impression that's reinforced by the pairs of jeans hanging on the walls where you would expect a picture. It's fashionable enough in its own right, but the owner just happens to run the Diesel clothing store too. [...]

Flares
Squeeze yourself into this bar at the weekend and be prepared for a singalong or even a star turn. When the karaoke is turned off, just relax and enjoy the modern Albanian art on display. Owners Denis and Nardi work hard to make this a welcoming spot and Flares is justifiably popular with locals an [...]

Flex
A pleasant enough bar, but if you go right to the back, following the corridor on your right, you're in a different place. This part is bathed in a relaxing creamy yellow glow from the overhead canopy – you're out in the open here. This helps keep the air moving when the place fills up on Wednesday and Saturday for live performances by local bands. Near the Sky Tower. [...]

Folie
It's inside the Pyramid building, so naturally it's called The Mummy. Mumja is a great place to unwind. Sit outdoors if you want to watch Tirana's kids risking life and limb sliding down the side of the building. On weekends, the bar turns into Club Mumja with DJs and live music until s [...]

Harley Davidson Bar
Official home of the Steelwings Albania Motorcycle Club and clearly marked by the multitude of cool rides parked outside, this rocking bar full of leather-clad motorbike enthusiasts is decorated  with all the usual Americana. It's a surprisingly friendly place, and the owners Tani and [...]

Kuki
Get a shot of culture in this well-hidden new café. The artfully lit grey walls are hung with modern paintings and other works by local artists, while minimal and modern music is played on the stereo. DJs take over the café on Friday evenings and every lazy Sunday afternoon there' [...]

Living Room
One of Tirana's coolest bars - literally, as in summer the large rooftop lounge area catches the evening breeze after a hot day. That's when the pretty people come out in force to cram themselves on the multilevel decks overlooking the city. In winter, retreat to the first floor of the [...]

A large bar with English and Australian beers on tap, a good-value lunch menu and in the evening a selection of Italian, Lebanese and international dishes, followed by cocktails. There's live music on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday with Salsa dancing, DJs and bands. [...]

Rock 'n Roll
A small bar with classic green and red wallpaper and a great atmosphere, very popular with locals and foreigners alike. Mercifully, no house music is played here, just honest blues, country and the odd rock 'n roll song, with DJs sometimes dropping by to spin their discs. The usual drinks are s [...]

A café and bar behind Enver Hoxha's old villa that really comes alive during the Friday and Saturday night karaoke sessions – warble along to your favourite Albanian or foreign song together with the Magic 4 group (www.magic4.4mg.com). The karaoke starts at 22:30. [...]

Zanzibar
Despite the name there is nothing very African about this place apart from the mural of the Sahel plain that runs the length of one wall and a few random elephant carvings. One of six bars in a row in a crazy building, it's fun to sit outside and compare your waiter's performance with the r [...]
