Must-see nightlife in Germany

  • La Leander

    Potsdam

    Even after changing owners in 2016, this low-key Dutch Quarter pub still proudly flies the rainbow flag. A good place for plugging into the local LGBTIQ…

  • StrandPauli

    Tuesday is tango night at StrandPauli, a Gilligan’s Island stretch of sand built over the water overlooking the busy docks.

    Fairy-Tale Road

    Monthly drink specials, craft beers, vivid purple walls and a fondness for heavy music distinguish this friendly little cafe-bar.

    Service is a lucky dip and the food is mediocre at best, but by all means head to the people-watching terrace for a drink.

  • Café im Stadthaus

    Ulm

    Skip the food and go straight for coffee or drinks and linger for the mesmerising cathedral views at this glass cube cafe.

    The rough and ready ‘lake cow’ is a Konstanz favourite for its beer garden, cheapish drinks and occasional gigs.

    Stuttgart

    Good-looking Stuttgarters dance to soul and funk at the nouveau-Alpine-chic Muttermilch.

    Stuttgart

    DJs work the crowd into a sweat spinning house and electro at charcoal-black 7 Grad.
