Riga city guide

Bubamara is named after a song in the Emir Kusturica movie “Black Cat, White Cat”  and is a younger sister of bar Leningrad (check the article). Although the concept is different, the atmosphere is also free and friendly.

I would not choose the place for a romantic date but you could definitely find me there in a jolly mood joking around with my friends.

It is possible to grab a daily meal and have a lunch here while listening to some world music. By the way Bubamara claims to be a world music bar. Afterwards, when the day comes to an end it is simply a must to have that sweet glass of beer Brengulis. And, coincidentally if you’re strolling around Old Town on the weekend… Well, you might find yourself in a middle of loud party, with live local music or DJ’s, spinning around and ordering the legendary home-made vodka (Samogon n1).
