Local nightlife tip

If you’re heading out in Gdansk for a night on the town, try starting with a craft beer bar in Wrzeszcz in the early evening, when it’s quieter and you can chat with the bartenders about local brews. Later, move towards Old Town where the bar scene picks up and you can hop between spots easily on foot. One favourite among reviewers is a place that doesn’t sell itself as a tourist hotspot but has an ever-changing selection of Polish craft spirits and live jazz on certain nights. Checking social media or review updates before you go helps confirm which nights are busiest or have special events.
