Arthouse cinema bar with a regular live music programme. Jazz, acoustic acts and folk in an intimate canal-district setting; kitchen open until 21:30.
Tip: Film screenings and live music are often combined on the same evening; check the full programme.
TivoliVredenburg's rooftop bar on the seventh floor with panoramic views over the Utrecht city centre. Cocktails, beer and wine before and after concerts.
Tip: The best skyline views are from the western terrace looking towards the Dom Tower; visit at sunset.
Utrecht's closest thing to a speakeasy: a natural wine bar on the Wed canal with a changing chalkboard list and no exterior branding.
Tip: No reservation system; if full they may let you wait at the entrance for the next table.
Grand cafe in the 1920s post office on the Neudeplein. Long-established as LGBTQ+ welcoming in Utrecht's centre; particularly busy on weekend evenings.
Tip: The terrace on the Neudeplein is popular on summer evenings; arrive before 20:00 for a table.
Utrecht's most warm-lit brown cafe doubles as a de facto listening bar. The chosen vinyl collection plays continuously; 40 Dutch and Belgian beers on tap.
Tip: Sunday afternoons are the peak listening experience; the regulars arrive with newspapers and the music is turned up.
Utrecht's legendary late-night dive on the Oudegracht. Open until 04:00 on weekends; over 200 Belgian beers and a chaotic, well-regarded interior since 1980.
Tip: Order from the Belgian beer menu behind the bar; the Trappist section is extensive and rarely seen elsewhere in Utrecht.
