Urumqi is also a city with rich nightlife. For locals, there are many people shopping and the weather is hot. They prefer to meet up with friends they haven’t seen for a long time, relax and enjoy time in a small bar, slowly taste the aroma of wine, and chat freely about recent life. Below are five taverns that I highly recommend, focusing on whiskey and sake, each with its own unique characteristics. However, the bars themselves are derived from Western culture, so the bars in various cities look similar. The bars recommended by Ahu have a better consumer experience in Urumqi~
1.TENDER?BAR: Xinmin No. 196 West Street, 19:00-02:00
The biggest feature of tender bar is the special blend, and the special blend is different in each season. The menu is always changed and always new, so you will get it every time you go There are surprises. I've always seen them listed on reviews in the past, and a few bartender friends have recommended them, but I've never been there. I finally went there one time, and I fell in love with it. Later, I went there often. What I like most is trying new products. They have events. From 5 pm to 9 pm, each cocktail only costs 30 yuan on average. If you like to get tipsy at night, this is the bar for you.
TENDER is located at a corner of Xinmin West Street. The door is not conspicuous, with only a bar counter and four booths. Lazy jazz music plays here, making it a great place to relax. Recently, they have launched six limited-edition wines with sweet and sour tastes, including hawthorn, cinnamon, butter and apple. The alcohol content is not high, which is perfect for getting tipsy in summer.
2.NO.108?WHISKY?COCKTAIL: No. 108, Building S1, Vanke Metropolis Legend, Kexi Street, 20:30-04:00
This is the largest whiskey bar The specialty is that it has a full range of categories and a variety of cocktails, which is really suitable for gatherings with friends, and different tastes can be satisfied. The encounter with this store was purely accidental. I had dinner nearby and took a walk along the street when the weather was nice, and I saw this store. I always have a fondness for bars that have their specialty written on the sign, so I decided to go in and have a drink. As soon as I entered the store, I felt that the atmosphere was quite good. Compared with the retro and gorgeous decoration, this modern and simple style is more to my liking. After all, a simple environment allows me to focus more on wine tasting.
NO.108?WHISKY?COCKTAIL is located on the first floor of Vanke City Legend on Kexi Street. The decoration style is retro, and the door is relatively small, so you need to look carefully. There is a bar area and private rooms, the lights are dim, the owner is serious, and the store specializes in traditional cocktails and whiskey. And you can enjoy free wine when you enter the store!
3. Shu's Bar: 3rd floor, Building S8, Vanke Metropolis Legend, Kexi Street, 19:00-06:00
Ahu likes cheap pubs, generally speaking, cheap The pub is relatively affordable and offers affordable drinks and snacks. Although it doesn't have the ambience and decor of a high-end bar, it's a popular hangout for many, especially those who value affordability and a relaxed atmosphere. At affordable pubs, you can try a variety of beers, wines and basic cocktails. Their drink prices are relatively low, making them suitable for those who don't want to spend too much but still want to relax. In addition, the affordable pub also provides some simple and delicious snacks, such as fried chicken, French fries, burgers, etc., to satisfy your appetite.
This bar is a typical example of a cheap pub: it is brightly decorated, with contrasting colors and ambient lights on the walls, making it perfect for taking photos. Wine, beer and cocktails are available here, as well as a variety of delicious snacks such as French fries, chicken popcorn, grilled wings and raw chocolate mille layers. If you feel that the taste is not enough, there are also snacks such as drunken crab claws and silky chicken feet. There are also parties held every weekend.
Z·ONE?Bar: Vanke Metropolis Future City Gate, 20:00-04:00
The main specialty here is whiskey, with more than 50 kinds of choices, as well as Brandy, wine and other cocktails, whiskey is really strong. If you are not strong enough to drink, it is not good to drink more than 3 shots.
The biggest feature of this restaurant is that there are live performances every day, which makes the whole atmosphere more lively. You don’t have to worry about being quiet when drinking here. The music fills all the gaps anyway.
The decoration of this restaurant is my favorite style . The decoration style of Z·ONE Bar is mainly British, with red sofas and wooden tables and chairs creating a rich atmosphere. The wooden black bar and the dark red wine cabinet on the wall come into view, and the vicissitudes of the house are clearly visible. Against the backdrop of the mottled red brick walls, the space seems to have reversed time, as if the guests are in a 20th century salon. . Going up to the second floor, the atmosphere is more elegant and private. The vault is made of bricks, like the design of a wine cellar, and the dim lighting exudes the gentle atmosphere of time.
