Barman Dictat

Kyiv


This is a huge, open basement space with one of the longest bars we've ever seen, backed by Kyiv's most impressive wall of booze. It's has plenty of exposed brick and industrial piping, and a stage at the back for live jazz and other tunes. Formerly expat playground Art Club 44, it's still popular with foreigners.

It's hidden in a courtyard behind vul Khreshchatyk 44 (take the first door on the left and walk down).
