  1. A

    Viola’s Bierstube

    The Bierstube’s former sister bar is still run by Eric’s ex-wife, Viola. It’s similar to the Bierstube (down to the mugs o’ mustard), but the service is friendlier and better. The hard-to-find dark wooden door is on the left under the archway leading to the courtyard (it’s under a vent).

    Blindazh

    This textbook dive bar, done up like a Red Army bunker, has old Kalashnikovs, grenades and other weaponry behind the bar for you to fondle. Order a ‘Boromirovka’ – Burn energy drink and tonic mixed with 14 shots of vodka and served in an old metal pail (130uah).

  3. C

    Bierstube

    The German-influenced menu (all dishes served with charming mugs o’ ketchup and mustard), smoky basement air and chummy environment persist post-Eric. However, the service has taken a nosedive. Go through the archway and hug the right.
