More cultural centre than bar — a multi-floor Sentrum space hosting debates, exhibitions, and DJ nights, with a different vibe on each level and a progressive, intellectual crowd. Coffee by day, beer by night, with a decent tap selection and simple food. Check the event calendar, because the programming is the point; otherwise come in the evening for the bar atmosphere. It is a genuine hub rather than just a place to drink — the sort of venue where a pint comes with a debate or an exhibition, and the crowd is there for the ideas as much as the beer. Check what's on before you go.
