Finding the Right Bar for the Evening

Leipzig is easy to explore on foot. Several of the bars mentioned are in the city centre around Brühl, Katharinenstraße and Grimmaischer Steinweg. That makes it easy to plan a small bar crawl with several stops. If you would rather be out and about away from the centre, Rorschach Bar and Platzhirsch Bar are places in the east of the city (postcode 04275).

Day of the Week and Time

During the week many bars are quieter, while at the weekend the mood is livelier and it can get busier. If you value conversation, early in the evening is often the better choice.

Reservations and Getting There

For larger groups, it is worth enquiring in advance. The city centre is easy to reach by tram and S-Bahn, so you can leave the car at home.

💡 Tip: Before you visit, check the current opening hours on the relevant page or by phone, as they can change.
