nss-ttd-goingout-nightlife-1

Nightlife in Düsseldorf is varied and great fun. Many places stay open till late on weeknights and often very late on weekends. The locals have a taste for good drinks and great music. Everywhere offers beloved, tasty and authentic cocktails.

The street of choice for those seeking a wide selection of great places to spend the evening and meet people is often the Ratinger Strasse, located in the north east of the old town, Altstadt.

Whether lounge atmosphere, wine bar, bar or club, a location is available downtown and elsewhere. Some of the best places include Chateaux Rikx, Elephant Bar, Anaconda Lounge, Salon des Amateurs, Bohème, Stone, Sucos do Brasil, Ufer 8, Nachtresidenz, Che Guevara and Sub.

Zakk and Stahlwerk are fascinating, decades old institutions that ere struggling at the time of writing due to the pandemic. All success! Destille is a unique, relaxed and popular place calling itself a speakeasy.
 
The great options of bars in Düsseldorf goes beyond this selection. Relaxed Bar Chérie is a delightful bar in the old town, Altstadt, or try Melody , Cubanitos and Mojito’s for even later. Other beautifully styled and vibrant bars such as Collette, Ellington, LiQ, Pardo‘s, Bar Alexander, Beuys Bar and Bar Alexandra offer great ambience well into the early hours.
