To call this place sexy would be a disservice; this is the final word in design drinking and the sort of cocktail spot/lounge club the city deserves. Huge chandeliers, shiny surfaces and black finishes lend a real svelte look to this spot, and you’d be a fool to turn up looking like anything less than a celebrity. Open Thu, Fri, Sat only 22:00 - 05:00.

It's got mood lighting, throw pillows, air-con, Maroon 5 droning from the hi-fi speakers, and over sixty shisha pipes, with available flavours ranging from blue guava to icy apple to bubble gum; not sure what else you'd need in a locale of this type. Relaxing and with an expected Near Eastern touch, this is a good place to simply kick back with your mates. Open 12:00 - 01:00, Fri, Sat 12:00 - 03:00

Qube is the lobby bar of the Sheraton, and the perfect prelude to a pre-restaurant meal. The vodka selection is second to none, and drinkers should check the Fire Place Lounge attached to the side; a plush, circular cocoon that’s great for leafing through the papers. Business lunch is served Mon-Sat between 12:00 and 17:00 for 29/39zł. OPEN 09.00h to 24.00h

Before Pacha came along, Van Diesel was the ‘in’ place on Poznań's market square, and the long queues out front would suggest it still holds plenty of clout. Negotiate face police to discover a more mature crowd than in most Poznań nightspots, grooving to a mix of classics from the 70s through to the present day. Only open on weekends, arrive early to take advantage of discounts on booze. Open Fri, Sat only 21:00 - 05:00

Wine and mozzarella di bufala are the specialties at this upscale establishment, and it's a superb duo. Located a stone's throw from the picturesque Lesser Basilica of St. Stanislaus and adjoining Jesuit complex, though unfortunately lacking an interesting view, Dobra i Wino is a nice spot to unwind and treat yourself after a long day of sightseeing. A collection of gourmet tapas is also on the menu, including delicacies like a French/Italian cheese board, sautéed chorizo, and chicken liver parfait. If you like to start wine bar hopping in the morning, surprisingly cheap breakfast is served daily until noon (13:00 on the weekends). Open 07:45 - 21:00, Mon 07:45 - 17:00, Fri 07:45 - 24:00

Whoa, if there’s one place that keeps leaving an impact it’s the Blow Up. Their bar is the final word in industrial chic, with metal floors, exposed brickwork, and ceilings that stretch to the clouds. The artwork is mad, and deliberately messes with your head, as do the molecular cocktails, truly the work of a scientific hand. An in-house cigar lounge and extensive selection of wines complete the look; it’s not often we attach the word unmissable to a venue, so take note and visit. Open 15:00 - 23:00, Fri, Sat 15:00 - 01:00.

The Fire Place Lounge is a tiny side room of the Sheraton houses this gem, where curvy seating is complimented by violet dashes, mirrors and dark polished woods. It’s completely luxurious, and the presence of a roaring fireplace makes it highly tempting to open a book and forget any looming appointments. Open 9.00 - 24.00

Dance with the fittest and the hippest in SQ, by far the most envied dance space in town. Silly haircuts and expensive wardrobes abound here, and they’re here for the music not the design – DJs arrive from all across Poland to play here, sometimes even further. The interior isn’t all that, but the nights are legend, and you’ll find no better place to puff the chest out and behave like a big time Bertie. Throughout July and August, Saturday night parties will move to the Imperial Castle courtyard (ul. Św. Marcin 80/82), weather allowing - the start will be at 22:00.

Brewing up some decent craft beer to drink alongside regionally-inspired pub grub, Ułan is a new addition to the Poz's City Park complex located in lovingly refurbished Ułan/Uhlan (Polish light cavalry) barracks. The military links might end at the name, but that makes no difference to those who come here to watch the big game with their mates, play some snooker, or listen to the occasional stand-up. If that doesn't sound so kid-friendly, you're in for a surprise - the little ones get a play corner of their own, so take them along as you sample some local brews. Open 12.00 - 24.00

Set down a shadowy courtyard basement, Cuba Libre is a bouncy Latin venue replete with whitewashed walls, pics of Che, and wall space dedicated to an assortment of Cuban goodies. This place goes for detail, so much so that drinkers can even take a seat in one of those clapped-out vintage bangers you see pootling round the streets of Havana. The Monday-night dance challenges, Fiesta Latino Fridays, and Disco Latino Saturdays all prove seriously popular. Open 21:00 - 05:00, Mon, Tue 21:00 - 04:00. Closed Sun

One of the best bars on ul. Żydowska, Chmielnik sports a smart wood and stone interior, on-site brewing tanks, and a spot-on selection of microbrews to pull in a trendy 20-something crowd. The seasonal garden out back is a summer staple, and it has recently expanded, along with the entire locale (which now has a new kitchen on the premises). Hands down, this is one of our favourite places for lazy get-togethers that go late into the night. Open 13:00 - 01:00, Thu, Sun 12:00 - 01:00, Fri, Sat 12:00 - 03:00.
