Themed barLive musicQuizzesBoard gamesHalloween

A "cozy dungeon" in the basement of the Arbat residential complex: a themed bar with a menu of legendary tables, food and drinks. On Fridays until midnight, local rock musicians play; there are also quizzes, quests and parties inspired by dark universes. The main event of the year is Halloweek: seven original Halloween nights, in a hall that fits only 60 guests.
