Old Town

The walled centre is where every pub crawl starts and ends. Narrow alleys hide bars like Buda Bar and Maximus, while the main square fills with street performers by 9 pm. Stay here if you want to be in the thick of it, but expect noise until 3 am on weekends.

Dobrota

A 15-minute walk north of the Old Town, Dobrota lines the waterfront with seafood konobas and quiet hostels. It’s where locals go to escape the backpacker crowds, but you’ll still find places like Konoba 91 serving cheap rakija until sunrise.

Škaljari

Across the bay from the Old Town, Škaljari is a residential area with a handful of hostels and one late-night bar, Club Culture. The walk back along the water at 4 am is safe and lit, but taxis only cost €3 if you’re too tired.

The only proper club inside the Old Town walls. Plays commercial house and Balkan beats until 4 am at weekends. Entry is €5, which includes one drink. The crowd is 90% backpackers, so it gets packed by midnight. Expect sticky floors and shots sold from a tray.

Rooftop bar with views over the bay. Happy hour runs 6–8 pm, when cocktails drop to €4. The vibe is more chilled than Maximus, but it still fills up by 10 pm. Try the ‘Montenegrin Mojito’: it comes with local honey and herbs.

Open-air bar built into the city walls. Serves craft beer and rakija (fruit brandy) in jam jars. Live acoustic sets start at 9 pm most nights. Cover charge is €3 after 10 pm, but it’s worth it for the setting alone.

Irish-themed pub with €2 pints during happy hour (5–7 pm). The crowd is a mix of expats and backpackers, and the staff let you pour your own shots if you buy a bottle. Quiz night is every Thursday: prizes include free bar tabs.

The only club outside the Old Town, five minutes’ walk from the bus station. Plays techno and drum & bass, with guest DJs most weekends. Entry is €7, but hostel guests get a €2 discount if they show their keycard. Open until 5 am.

Not a bar, but a tiny konoba (tavern) where locals and backpackers squeeze into wooden benches. Rakija is €1 a shot, and the owner will keep pouring until you tell him to stop. Open from 8 am: ideal for a hair-of-the-dog session.
