Sofia from Yerevan

About me I am into environmentalism, and most probably for that reason, the nice spots in my city that come to my mind are linked with parks or natural spots. I also love smoke-free indoor spaces.

Pubs' Spot Yerevan

Where underground life happens

"At the crossroads of Pushkin & Parpetsi, cultures meet: pubs, fast food, music, and nightlife. Grab a drink at Calumet, then a late-night bites nearby."

The crossroads of Pushkin and Parpetsi in Yerevan are truly a meeting of cultures. Here you can find some underground life and some (overground) Syrian-Lebanese-Armenian fast food closeby. A great place to drink and, once hungry, go and eat something. Or the opposite.

One of my favorite pubs is Calumet on Pushkin street. I have written a separate post about it. It has been a fresh air of diversity for me. It is known for many things -- its famous, tasty fries, pizza, music, etc. With the law finally passed forbidding smoking inside, it is just a great place to relax with taste.

Once you are drunk enough, there are a few spots nearby to go for some quick food. For example, Abu Hagob is not far from Middle Eastern types of sandwiches.

A reminder: this crossroad is still hosting residential buildings, so one can hardly sing aloud in the streets after drinking hard. But I want to believe you will have an amazing time in one of these pubs anyway. Just make sure you're also mindful of your personal belongings.
