7 Best Bars in Moscow

“Countryman's is my family's definitive number one spot to go in the region. A true must stop if you are coming through town. The atmosphere incredible, the food. Let me tell you... there has been several occassions in my long term quest to try the entire menu, that I have bit into someone so good. It can only be called, spiritually enlightening. There has never been anything disappointing. If you have not been, you are doing yourself a diservice, go, you will thank me later.“

“If you don't mind being crowded, at least during the school year, then you will almost always have good scenery,at least after 10pm. On event weekends during the school year, the place gets really crowded and you may have to wait to get inside, unless you get here early.“

“I was reading the reviews and they were all so similar I kinda thought they might be fake. However I have to admit I agree with all of them. My wife and I are from Seattle and here in Moscow with some friends for a short golf trip. My wife is a U of I alum and wanted to hit the corner club and the garden. The remodel they have done here is amazing and I told our friends it might be the coolest bar I’ve ever seen. I also agree that the bartenders are so welcoming, nice, and friendly. We ended up coming back twice for after dinner drinks because we liked it so much. I really hope people see how cool it is and the place has success. My wife was thrilled to see Blue Mondays were still a thing!“

“We had dinner there last night for my 64th birthday and had an enjoyable time. It happened to be quiz night, and tho we didn't participate, it was fun to watch. The food was great, and I ended up taking home leftovers :)“

“I originally had a bad experience here and felt embarrassed during karaoke. But the manager, Sarah, personally reached out afterward, which I really appreciated. I’m still feeling hesitant about coming back, but I want to acknowledge that they cared enough to follow up. Thank you, Sarah.

The drinks and bartenders were good, but this experience really hurt. I wish the karaoke process was communicated more clearly so people don’t feel singled out or embarrassed. It made an already rough night even harder.

I hope others have a better experience.“

“Cold drinks!! Always have a great time!!“

“Such an amazing experience tonight at Gambino’s. The service was top notch and the food was delectable. We started with arancinis and fried mozzarella. Both were delightful. The arancinis are a must try! Amazing flavor and a crunchy outer shell. For entrées we ordered the Wrigley pizza and the balsamic chicken salad. The Wrigley was perfect, tons of toppings and thin crunchy crust. The salad was tangy and fresh and a generous portion size. We will definitely be back soon. Thanks, Gambino’s crew for a great date night.“
