Lights Of Ufa
This shiny modern building includes a host of entertainment options, including a concert hall, a sports bar and your traditional disco. The microbrewery Brau Haus is the most fun, featuring live jazz, dancing and fresh-brewed lager. From ul Lenina, take any bus north to ‘Dom Pechati’.

Coffee-Time
One of Ufa’s most popular spots for a coffee break. Jazz music, B&W photos and a menu featuring crêpes instead of bliny give this place a European flair. In the evening, the café is often crowded with couples on dates and other fashionable young folk.

Gordon’s
Yekaterinburg has a bevy of places posing as English, Scottish or Irish pubs, although in fact they are rather expensive restaurants/nightclubs with a strict dress code. The most famous of them is the Scottish Gordon’s, part-owned by an Irishman.

Tinkoff
The newest outlet of this national microbrewery has the same industrial style and delicious draughts as the other outlets. The extensive menu complements the beer, as does the occasional live music or DJ act. Free wi-fi.

Rosy Jane
An English pub - not to be confused with the Scottish pub down the street and the Irish pub around the corner. The dark wood bar features seven different draught beers and more than 150 kinds of whisky.

Safari
Tucked in behind Triad, this dark, smoky nightclub attracts a very young crowd that likes to get down on the dance floor. Don your sexiest clubwear, and don't bother to show up before midnight.

Vernisazh
Reproductions of French Impressionists hanging from the ceiling and green jalousie that cover walls rather than windows make this café look like a brasserie taken over by a modern artist.

Bashkir Opera & Ballet Theatre
The theatre where Rudolf Nureyev took his first steps en pointe still ranks highly with Russian musical experts. There is a small museum dedicated to the great dancer on the premises.

Cafe Shepot
A more bohemia type of place, Cafe Shepot has live music most nights. As the name suggests, you can have a latte here, but most people opt for stronger drinks.
