Studio 54 reloaded

Call me Drella

Definitely the most interesting nightclub in Munich and the legitimate successor of the legendary "Baby!" (a club famous for hot blonde female bouncers). Call me Drella has the right concept with constantly good atmosphere, great music away from the mainstream and a frisky crowd. Read more ›

A different kind of chemistry class

Labor Bar

13

Located near Stachus, the little bar is easy to miss. If you find it, it's worth looking inside, though. Whether it's the shots that are served in test tubes or the bartenders wearing white lab coats, you feel like being back in chemistry class - with the exception that you can down the 'dangerous' chemicals in front of you!

Some believe that here Munich's best pasta is served and many people seem to follow that thought - whether midday or evening this restaurant is always packed. A style mix of 30's, 50's and 70's furniture meets cool music like Jazz or Indie Music and gives a hint that this place is a restaurant-bar-hybrid which fits perfectly in the hip area. Read more ›
