The town does not have that many nightclubs and the Stradun seems to be the place to be at night.


Hemingway (Pred Dvoram) is a cocktail bar with comfy chairs facing the pedestrian street and 30-page cocktail menu.

Troubadur Jazz cafe (Buniceva poljana 2, near Gundulic square), open until late in the night. It is a friendly and relaxed place where you can toss back a brew and soak up a unique ambiance.

This club in the Revelin Fortress at the wall attracts a younger crowd and it's always packed.

Deejay dance music is the norm at this sprawling bar near the Pile Gate, but occasionally a live band comes to jam. Capitano seems to lure a mostly young and restless crowd, as everyone in the place seems to be on the prowl.

Latino Club Fuego
For a disco experience, try Latino Club Fuego outside the Pile Gate. Don't expect nonstop salsa here despite the name: There is nothing vaguely Latino about this club, but it's a popular after-hours spot just the same.
