2 Best Nightlife in Ukraine

The Kiev location of the famous Parisian chain lives up to the brand’s global reputation. Featuring the chain's signature red and black interiors and giant Buddha statue, it's a good place for cocktails, hookahs, and East Asian appetizers. The music is the loungey global electronica with which the brand is synonymous, and there are frequent live DJs, often with accompanying percussionists.

Travelers in search of a relaxing evening out on the town may want to forego one of the city's wilder nightclubs in favor of the chilled-out, living room-esque environs of Café Del Mar. This trendy hookah bar features plush leather couch seating next to floor-to-ceiling windows and serves a small selection of coffees, desserts, and cocktails along with their sheesha. Resident DJs Vesta Sennaya and Sasha Funny stop by from time to time to play deep house sets.
