Ratinger Strasse is nothing but pubs, restaurants, and clubs, for as far as the eye can see. There are many great spots to choose from, and the bars and pubs located along this famous thoroughfare are always great fun. Zur Uel is almost always packed and is one of the more popular spots in town. This beer hall also serves a mix of traditional German food along with more continental fare. Leibevoll combines the atmosphere of a bar and a lounge. The front of the space is typical pub decor, with high top tables and sports on TV. In back is a lounge for a more chill experience.

Nightclubs

Dr. Jazz is a favorite for those looking for a fun evening filled with great music. This jazz club plays more than jazz, and is always a fun time! El Papagayo is a popular nightclub with different themed nights throughout the week. Its central location makes it especially popular for tourists looking to stay within walking distance of their hotel. Auberge is great for hard rock fans, and the small space is known for its friendly bar staff and underground atmosphere.
