Exactly why it took just over a thousand years for somebody to open a really outstanding bar in Vilnius is anyone’s guess, but open it they finally did. Read_on (No Comments)

Amatininkų Užeiga

An Old Town institution popular with locals and tourists alike, the service here has always been pretty bad even at the best of times although that’s never stopped the punters from coming. Read_on (2 Comments)

Artistai

Hidden in a picturesque little side street inside a rather lovely courtyard, this very Vilnius-type place was once known as Amerika, and has since changed practically nothing except its name. Read_on (2 Comments)

Bix

Started by the legendary rock band from Šiauliai of the same name, the scruffy bar on two floors that is Bix is fairly tame during the week but can get busy and full of testosterone-filled men in leather jackets during the weekend. Read_on (No Comments)

Brandy Lounge

Without wishing to come across as too pedantic it would be reasonable to expect when entering a brandy lounge to be greeted by two things, namely a lounge and some brandy. Read_on (1 Comment)

Briusly

Looking like the set of a Costa Rican children’s television programme, Briusly (Bruce Lee) straddles that difficult area between bar and club, just about managing to pull the whole thing off. Read_on (3 Comments)

Cactus

Tucked away on a quiet street between Old Town and Užupis, Cactus is more than the sum of its reputation as the city's only current tequila bar. Read_on (2 Comments)

Fortas

Despite its slightly crappy beer collection, Fortas can do no wrong. Perched up on top of the hill above Old Town, this always Read_on (No Comments)

Gorky

Named after the Soviet-era name of the street it stands on and a constant source of irritation for Lithuanians who don’t understand history, Gorky is now fully up and running as both a bar and club, of which the latter can be found downstairs. Read_on (No Comments)

Gringo

Recently moving their entire operation to a far superior city centre street around the corner from their old place, Gringo is definitely one to keep and eye on. Read_on (4 Comments)

Juoda Raudona

A good attempt at a sophisticated bar and grill and translating somewhat misleadingly as Black Red (Black Orange would be a more Read_on (No Comments)

Marsas

The former Bobo is now called Marsas, and although they’re doing their very best to offer something interesting and slightly alternative like their predecessor, it’s all a bit vague in here. Read_on (No Comments)

(M)isterija

Popular with a regular crowd of friendly hedonists, the drinks menu is fairly impressive and the food is more than edible. Extras Read_on (3 Comments)

Pavos

Vast glistening chandeliers and champagne breakfasts from 12:00 mark Pavos out as a veritable emporium of bling. The latest bar Read_on (No Comments)

Piano Man

One of the smash hits of the recent winter, the name is hogwash but everything else ticks all the right boxes. Consistently busy Read_on (No Comments)

Plieno Paukštis

Blink and you’d miss it, the Steel Bird is one of those rare finds that leads to something akin to a love affair once discovered. Read_on (No Comments)

Plum Bum Bar

A relatively young crowd has taken over this previously nondescript bar close to the main action with the intention of creating something new. Read_on (No Comments)

Pogo

Pogo
You can say what you like about rock fans but you can’t deny the fact that the ones who opened Pogo should be hugged and generally smothered in affection. Read_on (3 Comments)

Portobello

Constantly reinventing itself as a bar of some kind and even occasionally as a Chinese restaurant, the latest incarnation to set Read_on (1 Comment)

SkyBar

Churning out scores of excellent cocktails and still providing not one but two extraordinary views from the 22nd floor, a trip to Vilnius without a trip to SkyBar isn't really a trip at all. Read_on (2 Comments)

ŠMC

Round the back of the Contemporary Arts Centre and equipped with staff and clientele to suit, although it's a bit cramped Read_on (No Comments)

Stars & Legends

This highly recommended sports bar for sports nuts comes with one HD screen for every five punters and is arguably the best place in town for major sporting events, which in Lithuania generally means basketball although they do show other stuff as well. Read_on (1 Comment)

The Globe

An unexpected gem hidden away upstairs to the left past reception, The Globe has been providing good alcohol and the chance of something decent to eat courtesy of friendly staff for years. Read_on (No Comments)

The Room

They were still unpacking the furniture when we visited, attracted by the sign outside that suggests this new café-bar is going to be something special. Read_on (No Comments)

Transilvanija

Despite a recent move across town, Transilvanija remains more or less what it always was, namely a good old-fashioned beer-drinking venue popular with a 20-something crowd with a penchant for rock music and getting pleasantly drunk. Read_on (1 Comment)

Universiteto Pub

A slightly streamlined Universiteto has shed its wine and sports appendages and is now functioning more or less as a bar with a backup plan of pub grub and the occasional student party. Read_on (No Comments)

Visų Šventųjų Bar

A great-looking bar bashed together with lots of second-hand furniture and populated by people who value culture over Read_on (No Comments)
