Editor's review
Lubu Dubu boldly went where few bars have gone before. Such was their success that two newbies have now set up shop in the same building. Located in a little-explored area west of the Old Town, this bar has something of the flavour of the hip east Berlin hangouts of yesteryear. A student favourite, with a few twists on the bad old eighties, the decor is pretty much what you'd expect if you were to give a bunch of art school adventurers free rein to turn a flat into a chill-out (and at weekends party) zone. Flakey posters on the walls, cult film paraphernalia and murky lighting all dovetail to create a classic Cracow experience. Look out for concerts by alternative groups from across Poland (Sundays at 8) , also regular screenings of film classics (Mondays and Tuesdays at 8). Find it on the first floor.

Amazing little club, great selection of 70s-80s cheese music, although the dj hasn't heard of bonnie. Only one drawback DON'T GO UPSTAIRS. The club kitsch has brutal, animalistic, obese, racist bouncers who wouldn't let us in because we're English. Stay on the cheese floor in lubu wubu and you'll have a great night.
Bouncers are absolute unhinged animals, assaulted a group of tourists for virtually no reason, completely uncalled for. Do not go!
We are sick of all these snobby clubs in western Europe... So this was exactly what we wanted, just something a little different. We had the best night out in Lubu Dubu, it was crazy!!
ok place, but they always play the same music, i'm sick of Sweet dreams and Mambo nr. 5 every week.
Nice place, many ambiances.. somewhere to eat near the exit... the place to be !!
Superbe endroit avec pas moins de quatre ambiances dans un immeuble désaffecté. Un lieu improbable et inoubliable !!!
we never heard of anything like it we thought LuBu was a fictional warrior but he's not now we know.
My friends were right, this club is ace!! top randum mixture of 80's cheese and Indie - had a top night singing and dancing about!
Nice club, but bouncers on top floor very rough, they threw a group of boys and girls out for no reason down some stairs... Also our coats were stolen...
Good times. We having a good night out in the Singer-bar and the staff over there recommended LD.
I was in Lubu Dubu at Monday. The party was great. I danced with a nice girl, who named Eva. :*
best nightspot in krakow, only need to be more people..... i wish melbourne had a place like lubudubu
Based on the reviews below, I lead my mates to this place and they gave me a right lynching for it!! I tried to remain positive and tell my mates that it ain't all bad, but to be quite honest this place is one of the dankest shite holes I've ever had the misfortune to be under the roof of. It looks like a squatters flat!
I passed very fantastic nights in this bar,I met a lot of people, strangers and polish. very good place
cool but b-side is better - better music, not full of posers and foreign kids. b-side is where the actual indie kids go!
Lubu-Dubu used to be great 3 years ago, but now it's just filled with foreigners. but who am i to complain, i'm a foreigner myself! LONG LIVE THE LUBU!
4 years and still going strong. Lubu is by far my favourite place to dance in this city! the Sunday night concerts are usually great too!
Crazy 80's communist milk bar meets school disco, this place really kicks off in the small hours, arrive at one or two after a few drinks elsewhere. Drink what the locals drink, double shot (50ml) of vodka each with a communal juice drink to wash it down. The dirtiest but best fun I had in Krakow! But not for everyone......
One of the best places I found in Cracow! I just can't wait to get back to Cracow and to Lubu! Like this Retro-look, the music and the atmosphere! Everything is HERE to have one of the best nights of your life!
Come hither and enter a bizarre otherworld where Kim Wilde is Queen and Erasure are, well, the other Queens. Yep the Eighties dominate here in an unashamedly joyous manner. Akin to a labyrinth of standing-room-only sixth form common rooms witness as hoardes of student youth grind crotches and mouth along to every last lyrical cliche with missionary zeal as though each song is a nostalgic nugget from their childhood. In actual fact the cavorting whippersnappers weren't even born when these tunes were hits, a paradox which only adds to the quirky charm of this welcoming pleasuredome. By such haphazard logic in ten years time this joint will be jumping to the collective sounds of Haddaway, Jive Bunny and Vanilla Ice. Small mercies indeed.
It's half past nidnight now and I just had to listen to 80 music and visit the webpage of Lubu-dubu on Cracow-life.... I miss you Cracow, Erasmus Krakow 2005-6 the time of my life!!!!
Strolled in free on two nights, strange mix of music from Kylie - Locomotion to Depeche Mode but played a lot of classic indie hits (New Order, Franz Ferdinand and the Smokers). Good if you don't like cheesy dance clubs. Best if you down shed loads of pevo and get ballbagged first!!! NB: Mind those stairs Aaron
Hello! i came here last summer with my 3 friends while we were travelling thru poland .Music was great , people, dj , beers and vodka too.I hope to come again .bye
are you sure you guys went to Lubu-dubu and not somewhere else? It's a place where misfit students get really drunk and dance (in the loosest sense of the word) to 80s tack and rock hits. Great if you want to a pull a grungey 18 yr old too pissed to pronounce her own name...
I was very emotionally overcome when i found this place- very good looking clientelle, and even better music. I nearly met the love of my life here, but all he wanted to do was film me! In the words of Cher-
Sunny, yesterday my life was filled with rain
Sunny, you smiled at me and then it eased my pain
Now the dark days are gone and bright days are here
My sunny once shined so sincere, sunny once so true
I love you I love you
Discribed by a friend as a cult place. Well when I walked in I saw what he meant. Really cool athmosphere and some crazy music. Music I'd forgotten but thanks to Lubu Dubu I am listining to some of the worst music ever made. So bad it's really good.
Very interesting place. You'll get a mix of new wave and rock and some dance music in here. Good alternative to the pervasive disco-polo. Drinks are well priced and the crowd is interesting as well. I'm a fan. You've got a cool, laid-back place next door too, for when you just need to kick it. I'm coming back.
Lubu dubu Lubu Dubu niech na zyje prezes klubu........retro postkomunists staila,very funy posters with Bruce Lee and lots of good vodka!Lenin way,Lubu Dubu is my first choice for party in Krakow.
