BarNightlifeÅboulevarden, Aarhus
A cocktail bar by the river — Wednesday to Saturday only.

Illustration made with AI
Herr Bartels opens three or four days a week and uses them. The bar sits by Åboulevarden, the card is cocktails, and there are not many seats.
It is a bar where you sit close together and where the bartender has time to ask what you like. There is no music to shout over and no queue at the bar early in the evening.
Open from seven, Wednesday to Saturday, and Saturday. They close when the guests leave.
It suits two people who want to talk over a properly made drink, and anyone who wants to start the evening somewhere calm before moving on down the river. Åboulevarden runs through the middle of town, close to the other bars.
Why it's worth a visit
