Nightlife in Thessaloniki
Where to have a coffee, enjoy a cocktail and dance clubs in Thessaloniki.
Thessaloniki is the perfect city to experience from dusk till dawn. At every corner and in every neighborhood there are dozens and dozens of places to stop for a drink and have fun.
Beautiful places to have a coffee or a cocktail
The liveliest places
Maybe it would take two years to try all the restaurants, clubs, and bars in Thessaloniki. Here is always the right time for a coffee (at any time), a biretta or to dance.
The Ladadika area (the area from Katouni Street to Egnatia Street) is the most vibrant, always full of people and beautiful clubs.
Ypsilon hipster and gay-friendly place with good electronic music and cocktails
Le Cercle de Salonique, a magical speakeasy-style location
Stin Taratsa on the terrace
On the seafront from Piazza Aristotelus to the White Tower there is a succession of bars and cafés overlooking the gulf, perfect for enjoying a break and watching the sunset:
Malt n' Jazz to listen to jazz music
Ephemeris style more rock punk underground
Achilleion and the nearby bars are all beautiful
At the White Tower, there are also 3 illuminated and themed boats where you can get on to have a drink and look at Thessaloniki from the water
While on the waterfront from the White Tower to the Concert Hall there are beautiful venues near the water such as:
Ciel Bar and next to the Omilos
Skyline cafe bar (in the panoramic tower, we haven't tried it yet but they told us it's very expensive)
Jamaica, the only place in Thessaloniki where cocktails are cheap
Allegro inside the Concert Hall
Cafe Le Monde, MeliMelo and nearby bars
More student-style, there is Olimpou Street behind the Roman Forum:
Kafodeio Greek to listen to good live music: rock on the ground floor and jazz on the first floor.
The Blues Bar overlooking the forum
Finally, the area around the Hagia Sophia has among the best breweries.
Bulldogs & the Beast, a very popular place where it is not easy to find a table
Pulp
Beer Garden
LOCAL Thessaloniki
Giulietta Spritzeria for excellent spritzes
Many beautiful but out of the center:
Latérna
Zen Garden
The Monk
Les Zazous where there is music in the summer evening
Nightlife
Clubs, roof tops and music
The beauty of clubs in Thessaloniki is that you can find places where you don't pay for entrance and cloakroom, where you don't stand in line but simply book a table and consume what you want.
Chilai: splendid location with music for everyone (perfect even in winter)
Aigli Geni Hamam: it is a beautiful and intimate club inside an ancient hammam with electronic music and an outdoor garden for it's summer
On the terrace at Vanilla Sky and under the BALI Night Club, they are both sophisticated or fancy.
Ensayar The Four Seasons Bar: here in winter after midnight the evenings began with the DJ set.
Casper is a nightclub in Ladadika, while Eightball downtown is for young kids..we don't recommend them.
