Kraków Bars, Pubs & Clubs
If you believe urban legend (like we do) Kraków has the highest density of bars in the world. Simply hundreds of bars can be found in cellars and courtyards stretching from the Old Town to Kazimierz and beyond. Keeping them open, of course, are the thousands of tourists that flock to Kraków every year, and with higher tourism comes higher prices: expect to pay 7-10zł (2-3 Euros) for a large beer. The opening hours we list are flexible; basically if people are drinking, the barman is pouring. Below is a list of recommendations depending on what you're looking for.
ELITE:
Those who want a touch of class will find themselves at home in Stalowe Magnolie - an impressively dressed music venue with premium drinks, or visit Paparazzi and Baroque to engage in the ‘best cocktails in Kraków’ debate. Baccarat and Russian Enso are music clubs for the jet set, while Taawa gives a more upscale pulse to Kazimierz.
STUDENTS:
Not your most discriminating demographic, students will go anywhere there’s fun music and cheap drinks - namely Gorączka or Ministerstwo, while those with more intent to impress head to Rdza, Frantic and Cien.
LADS:
Pod Papugami and Irish M'Bassy – where matches are on and the staff are used to boisterous behaviour – welcome stag groups, as does Fashion Time, a popular four floor clubbing complex with plenty of options and opportunities for an epic night. Alternatively, keep it civilised inside Irish Pub Nic Nowego, or head to House Of Beer for upwards of 150 Polish and foreign beers.
COUPLES:
Couples looking for some face time should snuggle in a cosy corner of Święta Krowa, hide out inside a cabinet in Café Szafe, soak up the karma sutra ambience of Budda Drink & Garden, converse by candlelight in Mleczarnia or stay home and listen to Barry White.
ALTERNATIVE:
Take your tight pants and non-prescription specs to Miejsce, your punk rock patches and anarchist tracts to Kawiarnia Naukowa, your photography portfolio to Pauza and your self-destructive side to Philo.

Piekny Pies has closed at Slawkowska. They lost their alcohol licence because they stayed open too late and breached the peace of the residents....Frantic

The review above sums this place up perfectly. Last night I spent 20 minutes in there in stunned silence along with a hand full of regulars who appeared to be playing "chicken" to see who would break first and actually speak....Taboo Gentlemen's Club
