Pubs/Clubs
Voodoo
One of Riga's
poshest nightclubs is a club, disco, casino and lounge all in one. The
small club is packed with wealthy locals and ex-pats, the disco, decked
out in African artefacts, is full of stylish 20- and 30-something dancers,
the classy casino is equally as lively and the foyer lounge attracts the
undecided. Two rules apply: techno music is prohibited and you must be
21 to enter. Location: in Reval Hotel Latvija
Cetri Balti Krekli
A unique,
all-Latvian music club with a lively underground feel. The owners imposed
a strict quota for foreigners, so look local to get through.
Skyline bar
Getting a window seat requires patience and slick moves, but the view
of the city from the 26th floor is worth throwing a few elbows. Intimidation
will get you nowhere with the staff, however, who are often slow to part
with their ample selection of beer and hard stuff. Perhaps it's because
they must fight the tide of stunning single women trying to reach the
men in suits. Location: In Riga centre, on top of Hotel Latvia.
