Kyiv, of course, is not the Bavarian capital, but the Ukrainian one, but the people of Kiev love to drink beer with a good snack, good music or a football match no less than the inhabitants of Munich and Prague. Numerous pubs in Kyiv compete for the title of the best and most original, because just beer, even the most wonderful, no longer surprises anyone. The owners of new establishments are showing extraordinary creativity, trying to outshine the most extensive chain of pubs - Porter Pub. Kyiv pub - in our review. Reading!

Porter Pubs

Zest.

• Kyiv is covered by the "Porter Pub" network almost throughout its entire territory. These standard, European-style pubs with the name of the famous drink are quite popular among residents and guests of the capital.
• A cozy stop typical of a beer establishment.
• Wide screens for watching broadcasts.
• Affordable prices.
• Separate smoking rooms.
• Discotheques and guest performances by popular bands.

Menu. The main thing in the pub is beer. "Porter" offers 18 types of it, in addition, three varieties of local production. Snack - the usual dishes of European and Ukrainian cuisines, traditional crackers, chips, nuts.

As for the reviews, there is an interesting trend: Porter pubs still hold a high bar of popularity, but more and more complaints are heard from visitors about the dirt in the hall and toilets, worn-out furniture and unprofessional staff. If this continues, then the original ideas of new Kyiv pubs will bypass the famous network far.

Beer on wheels

"Trallebus" - this is the name of the original pubs in Kyiv, which move under the guise of this city transport.

Highlight:

• The five metropolitan trolleybus routes differ in many ways from the usual destination of this vehicle. The two lounge cars inside are decorated as train cars should be: curtains on small windows, small tables for two, and so on.
• The purpose of the halls is different - one for lovers of noisy parties, the second - for a quiet conversation with a friend.

In addition to the usual "beer" snacks, here you can enjoy frog legs and thoroughly refresh yourself with a large frying pan of potatoes with meat for a very affordable price.

According to reviews, this is an interesting youth institution, a good place for meetings and dates.

Forintellectuals

An interesting institution appeared in Kyiv on Simon Petliura Street: a pub-library or a library with a pub, as you like. It's called Baboon.

Highlight:

• Beer bar for lovers of reading - there are a lot of books.
• Themed evenings on various topics, meetings with interesting people, master classes.
• Musical evenings and screenings of new movies.
• An interesting tradition: anyone can pay in advance for a cup of coffee for a penniless visitor.

The "Baboon" menu is not much different from the usual menu of Kyiv pubs, you can have a bite to eat here for any amount.

Reviews: a bit cramped, but original. Not a place for noisy parties.

Remont Pub

It is an unusual case when the sign "Sorry, we are under renovation" does not close the entrance, but, on the contrary, invites visitors.

Highlight:

• "Eternal Repair" - an original design concept. Unfinished plaster, brickwork, raw wood, oddly enough, look quite interesting.
• Don't be afraid to get dirty - everything is very clean, although the cushions on the chairs look like bags of cement.
• Decor - construction tools and accessories. Waiters and bartenders are in overalls and helmets.
• Like many pubs in Kyiv, Remont holds musical evenings, but strictly on Fridays, DJs work on Thursdays, Wednesday is the day of beer competitions.

Menu: European and Ukrainian dishes withconstruction related titles. For example, the Kyiv Repair cake.

Docker Tavern

A stark contrast to the laid-back pub library, the dockside pub at the Docker Pub. Kyiv is not really a port city, but there are more than enough people who want to have a drink like loaders.

• Night place, the main motto of which is "everyone walks".
• Settings - appropriate for a port tavern.
• Music - blues, rock and roll, rockabilly.
• Dancing is encouraged, even on tables.

Menu consists of American and Mexican cuisines, grilled meat dishes. Lots of beer and alcohol.

From the category of negativity: there are reports that the originally cool pub turns into an unpresentable smoky eatery. Many complaints about the kitchen and lack of security. But! Cheerful atmosphere, performances of popular Ukrainian bands are doing their job - "Docker Pub" is still a favorite place for cheerful companies.

Full BarDuck

The eclecticism of the establishment, which calls itself the absurd BarDuck pub, made it strikingly different from other pubs in Kyiv.

Highlight:

• Lack of order and style is the main style of the pub.
• Asymmetry, author's drawings of different subjects on the walls, multi-colored dishes and furniture.
• The symbol of the bar is a duck, represented by many images in the design.
• Music - rock and roll and any other at the request of the party customer.
• Many variety of desktopgames that visitors can entertain themselves with.

The menu is also original, made up of original recipes collected by the founders on the Internet.

Amazing reviews about this pub are left by those who want to visit such a simple place without pretensions, play Monopoly or chess with friends, try original author's dishes, washed down with quality beer.

Beer city in the middle of the capital

The Naturlikh pub receives such feedback from customers. It surpasses some of the pubs in Kyiv with its special atmosphere of a German city.

Highlight:

• 42 best beers. Possibility to order a special set of several varieties for review.
• Besides an evening with beer, here you can have a delicious breakfast and a quick business lunch.
• An appetizer is offered for each type of beer that best suits your taste.
• The pub has a sports bar, a summer playground, a banquet hall.

Naturlikha menu is the main reason for the accolades. Delicious restaurant meat dishes for every taste, always fresh pastries and speci alty cocktails for those who do not like beer, but want to support the company.

What else?

It is impossible to cover all the interesting beer places of the Ukrainian capital in one review. Many pubs in Kyiv - with live music. In addition to those already mentioned, you can listen to good music accompanied by beer in the Schopenhauer family pub, the ImBier concert pub, the Tarantino rocker pub, and more. Various design stylesthe atmosphere from quiet solitude to complete flight allow everyone to find a place to their liking. Friendly Kyiv will find something to entertain and treat beer lovers, no worse than the famous beer capitals.
