Where to get a beer in Cologne


Cologne is a vibrant city with plenty to see, but after a long day at the show the thing to look forward to is the chance to network over a German beer. MCV runs through the top bars


HARRY’S NEW YORK BAR Visitors here can enjoy top cocktails on the ground floor of the five-star Intercontinental Hotel. The long bar provides plenty of space for groups and if you get peckish there are plenty of snacks available.


PIANO BAR AT


THE MARITIM HOTEL Check out the live music, club ambience and dance floor in this more glamorous bar, complete with its very own cigar lounge.


ALTER WARTESAAL Probably Cologne’s most stylish nightclub, the former train station waiting room has become the top place to party with a mix of soul and ‘80s hits. And that’s not to mention Depeche Mode parties. It even has its own restaurant and wine bar.


SHEPHEARD


This high-class cellar bar boasts prize-winning cocktails (at about

€8 a pop), and there are some 200 to choose from. It’s filled with leather armchairs and polished wood furniture.


BLUMENGOLD Featuring electronic music, this club can hold 400 guests and runs regular parties with special themes. The venue also puts on great light shows and is apparently ideal for the older party goer.


LA STRADA


The highly popular pub-café- crêperie is for all ages, and according to locals often attracts bizarre crowds. Ideal for those who want a quick coffee or a steak, or for those looking for perhaps a more


relaxed night.


STUDIO 672 The classic Cologne nightclub has something for everyone including funk, techno, house, electronic and new jazz sounds. It is situated in the basement of the Stadtgarten restaurant.
