Choice/
Quality of Drinks
⭐⭐⭐
Basic, but reasonable range of typical late bar drinks, not a specialist area but bases covered. A couple of craft beers in the fridge and some lesser seen spirits too.
Style/
Décor
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Antiquey venue with recovered radios in stacks, browns and muted colours across the place. The bar area opens out to form a natural stage opposite the bar itself which tapers off to the wall.
Atmosphere/
Character
⭐⭐⭐⭐
A late bar that requires a degree of custom to drum up any atmosphere, simply due to the space in the main bar area. When it is busy it feels like the place to be, but when quiet, the space near the entrance is characterful enough to have a slow drink.
Amenities/
Events
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Live music, limited outdoor space, snacks
Value For Money
⭐⭐⭐
Fair value for money
Description
A late bar with antiquey décor, live music and a worn-in feel, this operates as a reasonably alternative, rock-leaning hangout spot in Plovdiv city centre, and the complimentary combo of lively crowds and interesting décor creates that buzz that helps it stand out from some of the more sterile, generic choices. Maybe not a place to go at opening or closing, but pick a sweet spot between 10pm and midnight and you’ll see what the fuss is about. Informal and unpretentious, don’t worry about being seen to be seen here.
