    Club Uniq

    Across the road from Helsinki Club, the small dance floor gets busy most nights but the novelty vote goes to the tiny Arctic Icebar (;17:00-04:00; admission around €10) inside the club: don an insulated coat, sip a vodka shot in a balmy -5ºC, and watch the sweaty ravers outside through the glass wall. Minimum age 24.

    Corona Bar & Kafe Moskova

    Those kooky film-making Kaurismäki brothers are up to their old tricks with this pair of conjoined drinking dens. Corona plays the relative straight man with 20 pool tables and cheap beer, while Moskova is back in the USSR with a bubbling samovar and Soviet vinyl. At closing they clear the place out by playing Brezhnev speeches.

  3. Spårakoff - Pub Tram

    It may sound strange, or perhaps just a good idea, but in summer you can catch the bright red pub tram from the train station, with stops at the Opera House and kauppatori. It's a bit pricey and beers cost more than they do in less salubrious establishments but it's a quaint way to do a quick tour of town.

    Saunabar

    Feel like a night out and a sauna? Just as the name suggests, this cool student bar has a couple of basement saunas, as well as a decent music bar.
