Classic Hidden Bar in a close to the city center. It's the best place to dive in for a few hours and lay back with a shisha. The place is famous for its high-quality cocktails, shisha and they even have a poker room in the back. Usually it is booked for private groups but if it is free one can book it for board or card games. Just make sure to call in advance because it is quite popular.
The venue has some very good cocktails and their bartenders have a great stock of gin. If you book the game room for a few hours they even allow you to order in (pizza for instance). Make sure to tip them if you do that. Hidden works until late and they are wonderful hosts. Good tasting lemonades and other non-alcoholic beverages if one is into that. Enjoy it!
