Hamam Jazz Bar

Pristina


Easily Pristina's most stylish nightspot, this place was also the city's first dedicated jazz bar. It's a fantastically atmospheric lounge, and its impressive post-industrial design includes sheets of cracked dried mud on the ceiling to provide sound isolation, concrete walls and lots of nooks and crannies to enjoy the live music from.

It's a little hard to find as there's no sign. It's in the basement of number 62 of a nondescript tower block below the Duk a Gjini insurance company office.
