Bars in Malmö
- The square Lilla Torg is the epicentre of Malmö's nightlife. For an Alice in Wonderland atmosphere in a bold, playful and colourful design setting, head to MJ's bar and restaurant, one of Malmö's most popular bars for locals to have a drink after work.
- Located right next to MJ's, you'll find Ruths – a trendy restaurant, bakery and deli open seven days a week with a vibrant bar atmosphere.
- Just a stone's throw from Lilla Torg, Julie wine bar offers a selection of natural wines from all over Europe, along with a selection of cold cuts and cheeses in a welcoming atmosphere.
- Fancy a great cocktail? Care/of is bound to have something for you, from its surprise compositions and fizzy cocktails to its ambitious non-alcoholic drinks.
- In the cosmopolitan and lively district of Möllevången ('Möllan' among the locals), Grand Malmö is another must to add to your list, especially for the live concerts.
- Another favourite is Aster for its cocktails, natural wine and dishes inspired by the chef's Turkish roots and its warm, relaxed atmosphere.

- Another bar to remember for beer lovers is Malmö Brewing Company, for their generous list of draft beers, some of which were even brewed on-site.
