Arty cellar bar
We fancied celebrating in style after Aouth Africa won the rugby world cup, and the Irish bar where we watched was very limited in its beverages.
Maska is in the basement of the Stary Theatre located in the Old Town. Its decor is rich an opulent and with the aid of some very clever low lighting gives the feel as if one is entering a secret cave. It is no suprise that some famous people have visited this bar, amongst these people are Royalty, film directors, actors, actresses and film directors - so a great place for people spotting.
We ordered a bottle of Cava which was only 60zl, I noticed some of the other guests were drinking rather elaborate cocktails - apparently their speciality is making cocktails of the flags of the world. The are is divided into 2 rooms which caters for both smoking and non-smoking.
As I relaxed in a booth sipping my bubbly, soft music playing in the background, I can honestly say this place is quite a find.
Opening times 9am - 3pm except on sunday opening time is 11am
On their website I see that they do serve a full menu as well however we did not eat here.
No specific dress code, however this is more of a sophisticated place - not ideal for stag do's!!
Viva South Africa... world champions!!!!!!!!!!
