Directions
A multi-level bar on Kurmangazy: the fourth floor is a rooftop with views of the mountains and the park, the third is the main room, The Nest, and the second is The Studio Floor with vinyl and black marble. The name nods to the nightingale (бұлбұл), so everything revolves around music: DJ sets, records, its own DJ school. Guest shifts by bartenders from other cities and countries happen regularly.
