Upstairs a cafe and downstairs a club, Griboedov is the perfect place for any occasion. Back during war times, the location used to be a bomb shelter. It makes you think of how easy it is for a place to change its purpose — what is now a party place, used to be the place no one wanted to go.

7. Party like a local in Chroniki bar
Posted by Бар Хроники on Friday, 21 October 2016
Chroniki has a more local vibe than a tourist attraction, because it is a bit off the mainstream. The service is good and the music is enjoyable here. Don’t expect a large variety of cocktails, as they mostly serve spirits. The white-tiled walls give this unpretentious bar a stylish, modern, Scandinavian look. Yet it still is a great place to get the feel of a traditional Leningrad bar.
