What to Look for When Choosing

A different type of bar suits a different occasion. For a quiet conversation, venues without loud music are a good fit. If you like cocktails, take a look at the drinks menu and ask the staff for recommendations. Wine is best enjoyed in a wine bar, where you can get advice.

• Ask about alcohol-free cocktails if you do not want to drink alcohol.
• Check beforehand whether the venue serves small dishes.
• Find out about events before you go, for example on the website or on social media.
