Paulaner’s

Paulaner’s

Described as the ‘Bavarian Embassy in Dresden,’ Paulaner’s serves excellent beers and classic Bavarian food in comfortable surroundings right in the cultural heart of Dresden, offering stunning views of the Castle and the Semper Opera from its romantic beer garden. It is a popular place to meet before or after the opera, though the bar also fills up with party-hungry cocktail lovers at night.

Red Rooster

Red Rooster

One of Dresden’s oldest pubs, The Red Rooster offers a friendly atmosphere, great Irish food, and an incredible selection of drinks, more than 100 Scottish single malt whiskeys, a wide range of international beers and the best of Irish tipples. It's a very popular place, so come early if you want a seat.

Schießhaus

Schießhaus

Originally built for Dresden’s shooting guilds, the historic Schießhaus, or Shooting House, was first opened in 1554, and has been at its present location since 1768. This bar and restaurant features a wide range of different rooms, such as the Marksman Room for banquets, the beer and wine room, and the Albert Room for functions and events. In the summer, the beer garden with seats for 100 people is the scene of shooting tournaments and boisterous drinking parties.

Showboxx

Showboxx

The music played at this venue, which looks like an old warehouse, is mainly techno and house, but disco tunes can be heard at the regular gay nights. It has two floors as well as a chill-out room, tired punters can slouch on a sofa and observe the partying in the latter.

Strasse E

Strasse E

Germans are crazy about their techno, and if you feel the same way, a visit to Strasse E is an absolute must. Housed in an old factory building, the venue comprises several different clubs, including the Old Spinning Mill, the Bow and the Bunker, and plays host to both local and international DJs.

Katy's Garage

Katy's Garage

Old car doors, rusty wheels and everything else that you can expect to find in an old garage. Luckily, Katy's Garage isn't exclusively about cars, but has a bar filled with all kinds of liquor from all over the world, and even a smoke lounge on the second floor. There is a beer garden operating from April to October which also serves grilled dishes.
