Sure you don’t need to see Freddie Mercury’s red leather pants to enjoy a night out, but it certainly doesn’t hurt. The Hard Rock Cafe’s large downstairs bar area is jumping at night even when live rock shows aren’t on the agenda. The endless bar mixes up a long list of colourful cocktails for a heavily ex-pat crowd taking in paraphernalia like a well-worn Bee Gees guitar and a black leather outfit that formerly clung to Madonna’s early 90s frame. And, of course, there's live music - Wednesdays and Fridays starting at 19:00. Check the HRC facebook page for special events like parties and monthly visits by a children's entertainer who will babysit your young'uns (up to 10 years old) while you imbibe some hard alcohol in peace.
