Somewhere, amid all the junk relating to the Lebanese conflict (sandbags, ammo boxes…), you’ll find the spirit of Poznańska contained within this long, skinny bar. As fashionable now as it was when it opened, finish the evening in their connecting venture, the Pirates of the Caribbean-style Kraken. Evenings are a wild, happy whirl of international languages.

Żoliborz isn’t known for wild nights, but Havana Bar proves it knows how to have fun. Tucked into a quiet corner, this Cuban-inspired spot radiates warmth—glowing lights, tropical cocktails, and a soundtrack that leans heavily on Latin rhythms. The mojitos are strong, the daiquiris dangerously good, and the crowd? A mix of locals and weekend wanderers lured by the promise of a laid-back yet lively escape. When Warsaw feels too serious, Havana is where you go to loosen up.

A dive bar with cult status, Plan B has spent years perfecting the art of the no-frills night out. Perched above Plac Zbawiciela, it’s where Warsaw’s nightlife veterans and fresh-faced students mix over cheap drinks, loud music, and the occasional heated debate. There’s no pretension here—just dim lights, strong drinks, and a crowd that knows how to have a good time.
