Syreni Śpiew
Literally called “the Mermaid’s Singing” this bar is well-known by all Varsovians. It’s a great place to grab a bite to eat during the day, but on Fridays and Saturdays it extends its hand to lovers of nightlife and is open until 3 am.
They have various cocktails, but whisky lovers will think they’d died and gone to heaven when they see the huge amount of whiskeys to choose from. Comedy lovers will be happy to hear they also offer stand-up nights.
Night tours
If you want to see Warsaw by night, but don’t feel like having drinks and dancing, a night tour is something you might want to try. Check out the different colors and sounds of Warsaw when most of its inhabitants go to sleep after a hard day’s work. Most night tours are offered by private tour guides so you’ll need to do some Googling to find one.

Mazowiecka Street
Drop the name “Mazowiecka” in Warsaw and everyone will immediately assume you’re a party animal (and a rich one at that). It’s probably the most well-known street lined with clubs (such as Room 13) that come to colorful life at night. Clubs invite you with music blaring from inside, neon colors, and bouncers at the door so dress up nice if you want to get in.
Ząbkowska Street
Hop on over to the east side of the Vistula River to the Praga district and take a stroll down Ząbowska Street. Once a bit dilapidated, it’s now renovated and has lots of little joints with crazy names that are super popular with younger people and artistic souls. If you’re lucky enough to be around during any evening festivals on Ząbowska, definitely check them out to get a good dose of the culture and music of Praga.
Panorama Sky Bar / Level 27
Both of these fine establishments offer a unique experience in Warsaw’s nightlife far above the bustling streets.
Level 27 offers a unique rooftop bar experience. Order amazing cocktails and take in the live music shows they have, all while having fun on the rooftops of the capital! It’s open until 5am so die-hard party goers will have the chance to experience a Warsaw sunrise from the 27th floor.
Panorama Sky Bar is actually the highest bar in Warsaw (the 40th floor of the Hotel Marriott) and offers an amazing view through its glass walls. It also offers live music concerts which are usually ticketed. The bar is open until 1-2 am, depending on the day. Definitely make a reservation if you want to try this Warsaw bar out.
Bulwary Wiślane
This promenade is a great place in Warsaw to visit during the day, but it also has a great nightlife. The perfect place to hang out with friends or family for good food and drinks, especially during the summer when you can sit outside and enjoy a beautiful view of the Old Town and the powerful Vistula River flowing right beside you.
Stodoła
Stodoła literally means “barn” and interestingly enough, it’s the very place that served as a cafeteria for the builders of the Palace of Culture and Science. Stodoła is the place to go for good concerts, especially if you’re a fan of Polish music. You can also hear international music here, although the club is most known for their jazz concerts and the jazz festival “Warsaw Summer Jazz Days”.
Teatr Capitol Club
This club sets itself apart from the rest with its theater decor. Centered around playing good music, the Teatr Capitol Club brings in the best DJs from all around to make sure you’re having the time of your life. Definitely make a reservation because it’s popular and can be packed.
Skład Butelek
This bar (literally named “Bottle Depot” and when you check out the interior, you’ll know why) is open until 3 am and offers live music concerts or DJs along with good food and drinks. This isn’t a fancy club like on Mazowiecka Street so it’s a great place to go for a relaxed night out with friends or family. It’s quite popular so make sure to make a reservation.
La Playa Music Bar
La Playa Music Bar is the perfect place to let your hair down when it’s warm. As the name suggests, it’s situated on the sandy banks of the Vistula River, giving you the feeling that you left the city behind and are rocking on the beach! They play different music on different days so check out what they’re playing to catch the beats you love.
Nowy Świat
When the sun sets, this quite touristy street is overtaken by Warsaw locals who want to have some fun. The street has several great places for drinks and dancing tucked away in the various gates and courtyards. One prime example is Pawilony which is actually an inner courtyard with several different little clubs worth visiting. Not far off you can also find Pijalnia Wódki i Piwa which, as the name suggests, offers an array of vodkas, beers, and snacks with a communist twist!
