The best bars, pubs, nightclubs and hotspots in Warsaw

In this section, you’ll find a comprehensive list of all the best night establishments to drink ‘n’ dance. We have reviewed a wide cross section of venues, for all types of citybreak party goers to enjoy in Poland. This amazing place really does have something to suit all tastes, from chic-yuppie bars, down to earth pubs, cheap Warsaw stag do’s clubs, hi-rolling casinos and cutting edge clubs.

The Ground Zero Club is a really cool venue, which used to be an air-raid shelter during the war and since it opened back in 1993, has been the most popular dance venue for awhile. The sound system is absolutely booming and if you’re a lover of hardcore dance events, then this will be a very good place to come. If you want cheesy music and songs to sing along too, then don’t go to Ground Zero. It’s certainly not the place for a stags. On a similar tip, we recommend Nova lokomotywa another rave venue of whistles and white gloves, which plays music across the board on Fridays and Saturdays only. Not the classiest of clubs by any means, but the atmosphere is fun and dedicated to underground music, a mix of drum n bass, big beat, techno and trance. It’s not a meat market, so don’t go for a hen night or you’ll be disappointed. Dekada is a popular late night theme bar-restaurant-disco, which has based its interior on an American Dinner. The music is a range of school disco, live bands and jazz. It’s a place you would hate to be sober in and love if you were drunk. The atmosphere is friendly and great for stag nights in Warsaw. For those that love to salsa, try Wednesdays, its Latin night. For a similar happy tone vibe, then check out the basement of the EMPiK Megastore on Nowy Swiat. The club is cleverly called EMPiK Club and Thursday nights have a reputation of throwing a great party night. Very welcoming to party people and Poland stag & hen nights, larging it up for their last nights of freedom. Stodola is a big club with 3 dancefloors playing various genres of music. It’s one of the best places to come to catch famous artists playing live. International music heroes De La Soul and Mobb Deep have played at this venue. The Cultural Centre offers everything from movies to pop concerts, cabaret shows to children's events. Some of the biggest stars perform here. The schedule changes often, so always check for its listings before basing your evening around this venue. Some past favourites have been Gangstar (Guru & Dj Premier), Kelis and Poetree. You can see some very famous artists here at much cheaper prices than in England, so it’s of no surprise that some of our short break clients have planned a weekend around this venues musical calendar. Warsaw breaks are not just about architecture and culture, there also about an explosive nightlife and meeting friendly people.

A popular club on the famous Krakowskie Przedmiescie, is Harenda. It’s a popular place to come if you like to dance to RnB, hiphop and traditional African music. The atmosphere is always friendly and this club is a solid bet for a good nights dancing. If your musical preference is towards nu-urban beats like hiphop and RnB then try Tygmont on Fridays or Harlem which is further out. Both are solid options on selected nights, but we’d suggest to check the listings before you go. Sports tours and lad holiday parties should pre-arrange a guest list for these nightclubs. If you enjoy alternative music, then check out the Underground Music Cafe one of the best places to hear non-commercial dance music and rub shoulders with friendly faces. Music policy ranges from house, funk to RnB and breaks. Wednesday and Saturday are probably the best nights to come on, where they play soul, rap and RnB. Many of our clients have checked this club out during their stay and loved it. Again, we recommend to partys of men on big weekends pissups and stagnights, to make a guest list to avoid the strict door policy. There are a quite a few lap dancing clubs in Warsaw, but two of the best are Lach and Coffi. Lach is one of the classiest strip clubs, full of beautiful scantily dressed girls, private booths and offers a friendly atmosphere. It’s an exclusive place, so for large stag parties of men we normally make group reservations to guarantee tables. The other major lap dancing club is Coffi and is equally popular amongst the Warsaw stag do’s, expats, tourists and Polish locals. Both of these lap dancing clubs get busy very quickly, so advancing bookings for stagweekends is always advisable to avoid disappointment.

A lot of local socialites head to Cinnamon in the new Metropolitan Building opposite the National Opera House. Fridays and Saturdays are normally buzzing, full of half dressed models and trendy mullet David Beckham’s. The music is a bit commercial and unadventurous but the party normal rocks on anyway. Chimera is a restaurant-bar-club and is an intimate place serving reasonably priced drinks and plays good music. One of the unique aspects of this bar is its décor, with many unusual paintings and sculptures by local artists, which can be bought. For Warsaw breaks socialites it’s a great place to start the evening and meet some friendly people. Probably a little too intimate for stag weekends, so for big sports tours and football teams we’d look elsewhere. A similar place, where local artists and photographers exhibit there work is Miedzy Nami and is normally busy with a fashionable young crowd. The décor is minimalist but attractive and so is its beautiful clientele. Many of our clients have visited Miedzy Nami and enjoyed this relaxed & socialable bar.

Le Madame has an eclectic atmosphere, plays funky music and is open till about 3am on the weekends. In the New Town, try searching out Polyester Cafe which has a mixed crowd of students and short break foreigners, enjoying well priced drinks to nice background music. Modulor Bar is a small open plan venue, with an industrial décor interior and is a cool place to check out. One great aspect of Modulor is its fantastic English breakfasts, and has become quite popular amongst the Warsaw stag parties as the place to come, to get over the morning blues. Nobo club has a very good reputation, for excellent DJs, great cocktails and has a funky atmosphere. It’s also worth checking out, Zanzi Bar a chic modern place on two levels that has been elegantly laid out and designed. Happy hours aren’t really needed in Poland as the drink prices are considerably cheaper than the UK. Another reason to have a bargain city break to Warsaw. Muza is also worth mentioning if you like Latin, disco, funk and soul music. All three of these bar - clubs are cool places to hangout, drink and get stuck into the nightlife.

A cool club behind National Theatre in the centre of town is called Paprotka. It’s a large club, that has tried to bring back the ‘old days of clubbing’ feel to it, trying to create a more of a house party vibe, where the punters are fun and approachable rather than pretentious. The interior is furnished in pop-art style and not over-stylized and the dancefloor is quite large. The club Djs play across the spectrum throughout the week, hosts different themed nights and even fancy dress once a month. The best night is probably on Thursdays, when the DJ blends hiphop, RnB and reggae. Warsaw Stag party’s should make a club guest list. Talk to Vamos Travel about making this possible. Jezioro Labedzie might be slightly hard to find as it doesn’t have a marked entrance, but once inside you’ll find this venue to be a mix between restaurant, café, club and a bar. There’s a large bar, live music and usually a friendly crowd, a solid social Poland weekend breaks winner. Looking for a 24-7 around the clock inexpensive drinking hole? Then head to Patrick's. There’s a wide selection of bottled beer, quality Guinness, live music and good food. This fun Irish pub is definitely worth remembering for those intent on making the stagdo session go on throughout the night. Lemon, also fires on all pistons for 24hrs a day, the venue is cool and so is the clientele.

Pub Tropikalny Palmiarnia is a cool place, set in a giant greenhouse. The décor is like nowhere else, full of palm trees and tropical plants and they serve reasonably priced cocktails and cheap beer. There’s a dancefloor and for those that get the midnight munchies, there’s usually a BBQ on the go. Pub Staromiejski located on the Royal Castle Square has a nice summer garden, great place to take 5 minutes out from all the sightseeing attractions you’re trying to pack in. Quite simply, it’s the perfect place to sit outside and admire the view, whilst drinking Polish beer. The Riverside Bars (West bank of the Wisla) is a collection of bars, around 20 in total and is a cracking place to watch the sunset, enjoy a cold beer and meet some friendly faces. Excellent for a summer stag weekends and sports club rugby holidays to Poland.

No.19 a large bar, with a fun atmosphere and is popular amongst tourists, expats and trendy locals. Chairs and tables are moved on the weekends to make room for a bigger dancefloor, when the Djs play a mix of house, R&B and other funky grooves. If trendy-chic clubs-bars are your thing, then look for Szpilka or Sheesha, they normally play a nice mix of music and draw a good mix of people. The best gay Bars are Utopia, Kokon and Paradise, which is one of the most established gay bars. Out of the three Utopia has the reputation of having the strictest face-control but on the positive side they tend to draw all the big European DJs to play there.

In short we suggest these other venues: Amnesia a bar-club, Tango & Cash, Szlafrok another respected bar-club, Lucid attracts top name Djs and is a popular dance club, Jazz Cafe Helikon cool jazz bar, Extravaganza has cool décor and club design, Elegancki Bolek has cheap beer and is open very late, Luzztro is worth checking out for good underground electronica music, Hades is for Hard rock fans and hen parties looking for drinks promotions & a student atmosphere, Apsters to be served by a former polish Big Brother participant, Kotly located in an old heating chamber, Iguana smart chilled out bar and Klubo kawiarnia, consistently throws good Polish partys, invites good Djs and draws in a cool crowd.

One of the most established venues in Warsaw’s Club land is Piekarnia Club, which is located in a former bakery, on the outskirts of Warsaw's city centre and has 3 different rooms. Piekarnia which in the past has been voted ‘best club’, plays across the spectrum of dance music, hosting some of the best locals DJs and international DJ stars. Face control can be tight, so dress smart not silly. Punkt is a great place to dance to alternative music and to catch many quality DJs from the UK. In the past many artists from Ninja Tune have graced this venue, like Skapel and Amon Tobin and other great British producers have cut up records here like Rob Life and Poetree. The dress code is urban funky, so trainers, baggy jeans and hats are allowed. If large discothèques, cheap beer, reveling students and commercial music is your thing, then Park might just be what you’re looking for. It’s a polish-ritzy club, full of young people but it does tend to get a bit rough. Definitely a meat market but not like the men dens you’ll find in Britain. Stag weekends in Poland should consider this place. Proxima is another big student hangout that has live music and DJs, serving very cheap beer but is far from the city centre. Hybrydy is a dance club popular amongst mainly students and young professionals. The DJ takes requests and normal plays pop and dance anthems.

An oasis of African culture is Tam Tam. The decor has an authentic African feel and during the evenings this is a good place to come for food and a dance. Organza is a split level bar, sophisticated and has a very trendy crowd. The resident Djs spin quality; urban hits, old Skool and funky house beats on the lower basement floor and always guarantee a quality clubbing night out. There is a strict door policy, so we recommend to our Poland city break guests to dress smart, but once inside the atmosphere is friendly and isn’t pretentious. Like trendy bars in London, stag party’s and big groups of men aren’t tolerated, so if you want to get in, we suggest you hire a nightlife guide to negotiate the door policies. Located on the 40th floor of the Marriott Hotel is Panorama Club, which has one of the most stunning views of the capital. The drink prices as you would imagine are quite pricey, but its worth checking out even if it just for the awesome view. The place is elegant and the cocktails are very good and it’s a great place to relax, listen to live jazz and prepare for a big night out. Panorama will leave a lasting impression, make it part of your Poland breaks. Popular also amongst tourists and expats is a lively club-bar called Paparazzi. Happy hour runs daily between 4 - 8pm.
