Seasonal Bar Brainwave for the heatwave, Barka is basically a flat-topped barge, pimped up to look modern and cool by the designers at Project Praga. Once you’ve navigated the narrow gangways and the security blokes you’ll find a bar, concert and dance area. A whole series of gigs and guest DJs appear throughout the summer and the venue is regularly mobbed with partygoers. In fact it gets so busy that many visitors prefer to just make use of the riverbank area in front of the moored barge to chat and listen to the music. Our sympathies go out to you if you need to make use of the portaloos (Toi-toi in Polish).QI‑6, Skwer im. Tadeusza Kahla, MCentrum Nauki Kopernik. Open 11:00-02:00; Fri, Sat 11:00-06:00. Open May-Sept only. BE
Cocktail Bar Moody and elegant, this sophisticated cocktail bar serves signature drinks with performative flair. The imaginative menu of classic and modern mixed drinks changes seasonally; during our recent visit the sci-fi/space exploration theme featured delicious drinks with names like ‘Enter the Void’ and ‘Johnny Silverhand,’ and the range of unique ingredients included nutella liqueur, agave nectar, bison grass absinthe and pomegranate tincture. These alcohol alchemists even make their own flavoured gin (cleverly named ‘Gin Dobry’), which you simply must sample by ordering a classic G&T. Also on the menu: wine, craft beer, and antipasti boards. Ring the doorbell to be admitted.QG‑7, ul. Wojciecha Górskiego 9, MCentrum. Open 18:00-24:00; Fri, Sat 18:00-01:00; closed Mon, Sun. B6
