Poznań by Night

Poznań by Night
Poznan bars are flexible - no matter what the official closing times are, most bars and pubs will stay open until the last customer has stumbled out. Most night spots are concentrated around the Old Town Square area, but also check out ul. Nowowiejskiego and ul. Taczaka both of whom draw students in their droves. Where the venue is not on our map we have included the district it is located in brackets.

Here are a few suggestions depending on what you are looking for:

Lads

Brogan’s Irish Pub serves an impressive range of beers, though if you’re looking for something more upmarket then check Someplace Else in the Sheraton. Brovaria has excellent lagers brewed on-site, though loud and obnoxious antics are neither appreciated nor tolerated. Why not head to Cooliozum, home to 60 types of beer and Sky Sports.

Splurge

The best cocktails in Poznan are found in the Blow Up 50 50, which is conveniently situated close to the most exclusive danceteria in town – SQ. Look the part if you want to be accepted into either. To mix with expats and local corporate types then take your portfolio to Someplace Else, or for Belgian beer (you will end up spending a fortune as you make your way round the menu) head to Kriek.

Couples

Another vote for Blow Up 50 50, the best destination for seduction cocktails. For wine head down Szewska to Bodega Encantado, where the empty bottles from the night before are stacked primly next to the door. For something less flashy check out the bars of Żydowska, perfect for evening drinks after a chilly moonlit walk.

Local

Glimpse the past by drinking in the commie themed confines of PRL and Proletaryat.IQ regularly has impressive acts from around Poland to lure in the locals for live music, while Za Kulisami is a spit and sawdust venue popular with both students and dropouts. End your night in typical Polish style with a nightcap of vodka at Infinity Shot Bar.

Square:

Without doubt the most popular place to drink on the square is Brovaria, which regularly sees people queuing for tables to become available from where they can enjoy the in-house brewed beers. Bee Jays is popular with a slightly older club crowd, and Crime Story never lacks a full dance floor. For something a little more alternative head for Meskalina, accessed via the pathway in the middle of the square between the buildings.
