The Best Hidden Bars in Volgograd
Contributor / Journalist
There’s something very satisfying about discovering a hidden bar, popular only among locals, when you’re travelling in a country as large as Russia. Locals always brag about the city’s excellent drinking culture, so it should come as no surprise that they’re also super proud of their hidden bar culture. Here are 7 of the best hidden bars in Volgograd.
Come In Bar
Bar, Pizzeria, Restaurant, Russian, Fast Food, Vegan, Vegetarian, Gluten-free
This bar is famous among locals mainly because if its affordable prices. Their signature drink is the Long Island, a mix of Wattle Cola, vodka, lime, smoked salt and other secret ingredients. If that doesn’t do it for you, they have a long list of creative cocktails that change often. The sodas also come with suggested serves, such as the Cuba Libre or the Cosmopolitan with cherry syrup.
The Biggest Bar
Bar, Russian
The Biggest Bar is a local bar hidden in the small shopping mall of Volgograd. The bar serves fabulous drinks and pizza. Once you’ve treated yourself to a Russian cocktail with vodka, head to the tables and order yourself a big piece of pizza Diavola.
Miles Bar
Restaurant, European
Think about all the beautiful cocktails you’ve seen and picture them in one place. That place is the Miles Bar (Milya). Many good cocktails are offered here daily, and the music is exceptional in comparison with many other places in this small town of Volgograd.
Bar & Grill
Bar, Restaurant, Russian, Pub Grub
Another Volgograd secret is the Bar & Grill. This haunt is centrally located and is a great place to go if you’re feeling like something different, or want to try extraordinary cocktails. It is also known to have the best steaks in the neighbourhood. The bartenders here are very adventurous too; ask them to make one of your own inventions and they’ll give it a go or even overcome your expectations.
