Špunka Vilnius

Little place of big magic

Šarūnas from Vilnius

About me So, my name is Šarūnas. The origin of my name is from an old Lithuanian word "šarus", which means quick. The funniest thing is that it represents me very well and very bad at the same time. I'm an active type of guy who needs adventures and changes to make life interesting. But I often get stuck with moving from the point zero. Oh the irony. However I still think that I am a trustw...
""Špunka": one of the tiniest bars in Vilnius. It's also one of the coziest bar I like to have a pint at with my mates! There's homemade cheese, too."

Have you found your favorite bar in Vilnius? Užupis, one of the craftiest and most charming neighbourhoods in Vilnius has a unique spot to offer called Špunka. The location of the place is magical itself - just in front of the Angel statue of Užupis.

Špunka is one of the tiniest bars I've ever seen in Vilnius. However it's also one of the most visited and coziest bars to have a pint at with my mates. The interior is just the first step to falling in love with the place. Nothing too fancy, just the neat details with their stories to tell. The bar always cheers you up with a variety of bottled foreign beers and 8 Lithuanian beers on tap from Dundulis which would definitely please even the fussiest visitor. They also have bottled cider, wine and some stronger stuff if needed. And for the non-alcoholic beverages there is a sweet beer type of drink called kvass.

If you're interested in refreshments, Špunka has homemade cheese and meat brought from the local Tymo market. I am never nervous if I'm in a rush, but still in demand to get something from Špunka - takeaway is also available.

Last but not least, one argument for visiting Špunka is its mixed audience. The people who go there are earthy, but always interesting and pleasant to communicate with in numerous languages. All in all a dominant place in the "must see in Vilnius" list!

Vilnius Spotter Šarūnas

About me So, my name is Šarūnas. The origin of my name is from an old Lithuanian word "šarus", which means quick. The funniest thing is that it represents me very well and very bad at the same time. I'm an active type of guy who needs adventures and changes to make life interesting. But I often get stuck with moving from the point zero. Oh the irony. However I still think that I am a trustworthy person to talk to when it comes to activities in Vilnius. Why Vilnius? Vilnius is rather small, but in a good way, in a cosy way. You will always please yourself with enough e...
