The best bars and cafés Bichkek

A long bar where all Americans passing through or based in Bishkek linger entire evenings. Match broadcasts, burger, pizza and tex-mex menus and cheap beer have made this establishment a success, as has its location in the prestigious setting of a former theatre. Unfortunately, it is a bit deserted during the week, but is still nice for the weekend evenings, when bands come to put some atmosphere on pop-rock rhythms and the bar is transformed into a dance floor.

A very attractive space in this long building, with well-intentioned decor (pastel colors, book shelves, wooden tables, different types of armchairs...). The menu offers a fine selection of coffees and teas, as well as home-made pastries. You've got to love cream, but the results are quite honest. In the evening, the terrace is a pleasant place to order a fruit juice or homemade lemonade. Also recommended: club sandwiches, burgers, soups and salads made with fresh produce.

A very pleasant place to have a drink or sip a coffee at the end of the day. The room is air-conditioned and is next to a very nice souvenir shop. But you can also choose to relax on the terrace where very comfortable armchairs and sofas have been arranged: ideal after a long day of wandering around town. Espresso, western beers and homemade pastries complete the picture, and you can also order some snacks and fresh fruit juices depending on the season (melon juices are a marvel!).

A little expensive but the establishment is mostly frequented by expatriates and benefits from it. The terrace is an ideal observatory to watch the passing of time and passers-by. Inside, comfortable armchairs and sofas surround a bar filled with appetizing desserts and fresh fruit juices to be ordered throughout the day, in a rather calm and family atmosphere. Good choice of coffees and teas. In the evening, cocktails are just as good. After the last bars have closed, the Adriano welcomes Bishkek's night owls.
