We all have at least one “friend who likes to praise Belgrade’s nightlife” around us. You know, this person is hard to control.. Whenever there is a conversation about going abroad or going out, he immediately starts praising Belgrade’s clubs and bars and telling that Belgrade is the best in this regard.. So was your friend actually right? open to discussion. Because we all have a very different understanding of “crazy nightlife“. For example, in our opinion, there is little point in praising Belgrade to a man who spent a few nights in Berlin.. You may also like to switch from club to club in Las Vegas or spend time in a different concept on the roof tops of Hong Kong.. But of course, none of this means that you won’t like Belgrade.. Let’s put our finger on the subject together.
We decided to examine the subject under the titles “Before Deflecting” and “For Deviating”, which sound very logical to two ears.. Because while some of us want to have a quiet conversation and sip their drink, some of us may want to stay in the clubs in a sweat, we understand.. We make the introduction from the quiet one.
Edit from the beginning: We haven’t visited the city yet, for those who say what nightlife we have here a crazy Belgrade guide.
Before Deviating
Blaznavac
Even if we hadn’t recommended Blaznavac here, we are sure that the moment you pass in front of it, you would want to spend time there.. Because it is a cute place that can impress you just because of its exterior, even without tasting its overly delicious cocktails.. We shouldn’t be the only ones who think this way, the place is always crowded no matter summer or winter.. We strongly recommend you to try plenty of cocktails, especially in Blaznavac, where the garden will be incredibly enjoyable in summer, they are very successful!
Berliner
Karaköy in Belgrade Berliner, which is one of the favorite places of Savamala region, which has returned to its name, later popularized and overflowing with new venues, is a sweet bar with lots of beer, as you can understand from its name, and where you can find the same kind of hot dogs and similar snacks you eat in Germany.. Does not open before 1 or even 2 pm. Of course, we will recommend you to go in the evening, if possible.. If you are bored with the local beer, you will definitely find a few of your favorites from the 100’s of beers here.
Ok.No
Ok.No is near Knez Mihailova, in the afternoon or It is also a place where you can stop by before the night entertainment.. It is a quiet, unique place where you can spend a long time as it has very affordable drinks and a local audience.. Their staff aren’t very good at speaking English, but when it comes to drinks, you can somehow get along, albeit Tarzan style.. If you can’t find a place here, you can also stop by the Irish Pub right next door.
-Address: Obilicev Venac 17 (It will be on your right when you pass the passage with a strip club on Knez Mihailova.)
Black Turtle
If you have done research from foreign sources before coming to OitheBlog, it is very likely that you have come across Black Turtle and you have already started to wonder.. In Black Turtle, which has several branches in the city, besides the world-wide beers you know, there are all kinds of beers of their own production.. First of all, they are famous in this regard.. If you want to try all the varieties, they offer a tasting menu of small glasses and there are many varieties including blueberry (we doubted Turkish), strawberry and lemon.. The music playing in the venue is familiar, the atmosphere is friendly, but it would be an exaggeration to say that we are addicted to beers.. It can still be tried.
Three Carrots
There is a good chance that you will be exposed to a lot of tourists at Three Carrots, one of the most popular bars in Belgrade these days.. Because they have developed a strange system to integrate tourists and you can only enter a part of the bar “if you are not a Serbian citizen”.. It also attracts extra attention from locals as it is the first Irish Pub concept in the city.. If you intend to meet new people, this place may be a logical choice for you.
Let’s summarize a little, because there are many options;
If you’re looking for a pre-club bar concept: Prohibicija Pre Club Bar
If you’re going to hang out in jazz bars with an elitist decoration and sweet jazz bands: Jazz Basta
We’d better have a meal before we have fun, but if you say music is also important: Cantina de Frida
If you want to attend Rakija night on a Friday night: Caffe Bar Dali
To Deflect
Plastic
Plastic, which is one of the popular “whoever you ask” popular venues on the Belgrade nightlife issue, is very busy on weekdays. one of the fixtures clubs that has no events and is crowded with a mix of local & tourist on the weekend.. Locals say that it used to be more entertainment-oriented, but now it’s turned into a more squeamish place.. Plastic, whose prices can be considered slightly above the Belgrade average, usually plays house music and its derivatives, which are divided into 232 branches.. Let’s add that there is a club atmosphere where thin middle-aged brothers go to chase young girls.. (I guess you won’t go)
-If you don’t like this place, which you probably don’t, you can try the place called Mint nearby.
Tube
strong>
It’s not worth mentioning Tube when you’ve entered the ready topic from a well-known club like Plastic. It is a place that is a candidate to be one of the Belgrade nightlife classics, and even if you ask the aunt passing by, there is a high probability that she knows its name. Moreover, it does not have an atmosphere that reminds you of the clubs in Berlin.. Friday nights are usually “underground nights” and Saturday nights are spent in a concept where all kinds of electronic music are played and local DJs appear.
-They may charge 4-5 Euros at the entrance.. They don’t shake much after a certain hour.
Peron Savamala
We met on a Saturday night during the transition from place to place, who wrote to her heart about the small-scale nightlife guide for us. There was only one thing that a Serbian friend of ours (who became a temporary friendship) had been talking about all night: go to Peron.. Okay, let’s go girl, okay! Why? Because the favorite place of Savamala region, which is advancing with the taste of Belgrade’s Karaköy, is Peron these days, and we didn’t know about it yet.. The music is indie-electronic and sometimes 80s.. From time to time, there are local bands and Club Bangkoks of those places.. Do you like? We think you’ll like it.
-Let’s remind you that you can only go on weekends.
KC Grad
KC Grad is not a club. You might have expected that we’d go on to say KC Grad is more than just a club, but it’s not like that.. Let’s put it this way, if Lena Dunham is going to have fun somewhere, she’ll go here.. If Alex Turner wants to hang out in Belgrade at night, he should definitely stop by here.. Kidding aside, KC Grad is a very lovable place where you can catch the combination of quality music + lovable atmosphere, come across successful bands, not only in terms of nightlife, but also in movie screenings, literary & artistic events or workshops if you go by looking at the program.. As such, the night is beautiful, of course.. In summary, go, you’ll love it.
Beton
Since we don’t like many restaurants in Beton Hala, we set foot inside, accompanied by lousy music. Concrete, which we came out with a sudden decision by seeing “stem”, is actually quite popular in the city these days.. I think one of the main reasons for this is the good location, because we haven’t seen any reason to love this place.. Isn’t it obvious that we wrote not to go but not to go, right?
-If you are going as a group of men, you may hear the Serbian version of “No roof is entered”.. (Oh, it’s not beautiful anyway, don’t worry)
Let’s go over our summary for those who want more venues;
-Nice music, beautiful scenery, new venue, little-known suggestion: Wats Beograd (By the way, Wats= WeAreTheShit)
-If you are keen on popular places: Brankow
-Many different options if you don’t mind the name Drugstor
–If you’re keen on riverside clubs: 20/44 or Povetarac
–If you say you can handle even the most popular and touristic riverside clubs: Freestyler or River
Tips
-If you want to dance or have some crazy fun, there is no point in going out before 12:30 at night.
-They apply dress code in many places, it wouldn’t hurt to dress a little carefully.
-Which clubs and venues in the city do you like? It varies considerably according to the season in which it is popular.. In winter, there is a density in the clubs located in the city and in the summer by the river.. Since we went in the winter, it may have been a little overflowing with winter clubs.
-Most of the places by the river do not open before May or do not do much business.
Yes, now you de Belgrade nightlife is ready to praise, you can praise it a lot, you can be the star of the scene, congratulations.
