Nightclubs and bars in Romania

Grand Cafe Galleron is somewhere I keep returning to when in Bucharest. Quiet but not too quiet, this is a peaceful place to relax over a coffee or a G&T and people watch. Later on the music gets louder - but not too loud, enough to make you tap your toes and think about going out but low enough to chat.

Specialist teas and smoothies made freshly are a speciality. The staff are friendly and get to know you quickly. The surroundings are lovely and there are areas where you can hideaway for more private chats.

Dress Code: No dress code apparent

Best clubs in Bucharest
All time favorit oldst clud in Bucharest Club A, the student place, cheap beer and great people.

Twize very close to Club A, disko in 3 floors.

Planters have change from a hooker bar into a nice place, but they are still there, but out numbers by local girls there want to party.

More to come

Dress Code: Club A come as you are.
Twize dress nice, but most tourist will come in, but if you look like a vagabind then they local will stay away from you.
Planters same as Twize.

The girls from the staff at Elvis Villa recommended this place. It was a saturday night. We arrived around midnight and the place was crowded. Not many tourists/foreigners in the house. It looked like a regular club but...

Many girls were dancing on the balconies and tables. The DJ started saying something in romanian and the girls took off their shirts during the song. Those who didn't... had to get down from the balconies/tables. On the next song, the DJ says something else and the girls took off their pants/skirts!!! We couldn't believe that!!! But the show was only starting... on the next song, the girls took off their bras!!! After all these preliminary stages, only 2 girls remained dancing on the main balcony. A few more words from the DJ and during the next song... we couldn't believe... the girls were completely naked on the balcony!!!

I don't know how often does this happen there, but that was something...

After telling you the story above, I don't know if this still matters, but the drinks are cheap and the place is really nice... hahaha

Nightlife....Usually clubs,bars & discos.In Bucharest are some really good clubs with super live music.You can dance & party all night ,more if you are at seaside.For example in Neptun is a club called "Alcatraz" and you can sware it's a jail...it look cool and it has real good music.

In the suburb of Racadav, bears come to the rubbish tip to rummage for food in the bins during the late evening and night. Totally unperturbed by passing humans, car headlights and cameral flashes, they go about the daily rituals.

The best place for nightlife I visited in Mamaia was a place called La Cucaracha. The place itself is next to the beach, and during the weekends when this place is really crowded you can dance on the beach.

Dress Code: Come as you are.

As far as Bucuresti is concerned, most of the young party crowd hangs out in the old part of the city, in the center near the University.

Just walk down the small cobblestone streets and you'll hear music coming out of many buildings. Sometimes there's crowds of kids hanging outside a club.

A book guide might also help because I've been to a few really cool bars that were in the basement of an old building and I would have never found it if I wasn't with friends that already knew.

Basically most dress codes are casual, in general Romanian people don't get too dressed up to go out like people would in Vegas or NY. It's a lot more basic here and it's lots of fun.

Nightlife in Bucharest? Well, if you make it past the eager ladies lying in wait in the hotel lobby, you can walk the streets looking for somewhere for a latenight beer. Keep looking, bud! Old Cliffie ended up at a kiosk selling local beer by the bottle. A dusty glass was wiped with a murky towel and offered, but old Cliffie preferred to drink Australian-style and drank the tepid brew straight from the bottle. Hm, yes, interesting taste. What do they put in it, apart from the Unidentified Floating Objects? And then old Cliffie saw the two cats. At least he thought they were cats until two massive rats scuttled across the road and disappeared near the gutter. Old Cliffie glanced over his shoulder, half expecting Dracula to join him for a drink. Well, he might have been safer company than the ladies in the lobby.
