Let's get one thing straight – the bar's name doesn't mean what you think it does. It means, perhaps somewhat disappointingly, “tender wolf”. But hey, the sign has a naked chick riding a wolf on it. So there's that. It's a great place for food and during the summer there's an open air terrace in the small park just across the street.

Club Studio

It's probably the most "real" dance club in town, and thus full of people who enjoy good beats. Being quite popular there's often a queue outside, so showing up early is the key. It has an eargasmic sound system - Funktion One. You have to hear it to believe it.

Von Krahl

For nighttime entertainment we suggest you to investigate the posters outside to get a better idea of what's happening. Von Krahl is a theatre and they do have self produced alternative plays for people who are, say, not so much interested in the contents of a bottle but rather the character of it.

Levist Väljas

Because of the cheap prices students are abundant here, but expect to meet backpackers, local musicians and university professors. What draws all these people here however, is a mystery – one that's unlikely to be solved any time soon.

If you're a proper beer lover and we mean a proper one (binge drinking doesn't exactly qualify) – then we urge you to drop by Drink. You won't find a better place. It has a fun atmosphere to boot. Drink also hosts the acclaimed fortnightly quizzes which help people battle the stress of their dull and grey working days.

Valli Baar

Unless your name is Paddy, you might be looking for a more genuine experience than your average Irish pub. Valli Baar, with its seemingly spontaneous live music is a bit of a paradox on the Tallinn party scene. All this makes for a truly authentic setting, but we can't blame you if you find the whole experience a bit odd...

Since Koht serves a decent selection of beer and attracts a group of interesting regulars, you'll be sitting there for hours with your new-found friends while discussing topics that you didn't expect to cover when you headed out for a beer.

Paar Veini

The house wine is incredibly cheap. The cheese and meat tapas are also in the same price range. Go there to see where the most popular in town people go and hang out with them. They also organize different events, including wine tastings, clothes swaps and more.

Tops

Being out of the way certainly helps, as Tops is situated in Kalamaja, a twenty minute walk from the Old Town. With its traditional 20s and 30s wooden houses, the setting couldn't be more perfect for this new cool-kids hangout. Because tourists rarely stray far from the medieval city centre, the cafe's good for people-spotting.

You might have had to imagine it before, but this is what Eastern Europe actually is. Well... in Tallinn there is at least one place left like this. Kolm Lõvi definitely takes some courage to visit – hence the name "Three Lions".

Red Emperor Bar

RE treads the line between a party place and a homely hangout, and does so quite well. It works a treat if you want to start the evening slowly, or seek refuge from the busy life of travelling. At night, however, there’s usually stuff going on. They regularly host karaoke showdowns, open mic events and anything else the staff might think of.
