Editor's review
Dubbed 'Play' for the bevy of boardgames available behind the bar (yes, drunken Jenga is inevitable), the real sport here is foosball. The headquarters of Vilnius' growing underground foosball scene, Play Club hosts frequent tournaments, and you'll find the most supple-wristed hipsters in town showcasing their talents on the two tables here every night of the week. Hardly a geeky hangout, though, this is one of the most hip, friendly places in Vilnius. While off the beaten path, it's worth the trek: entering this small, alternative bar will make you think you've just arrived at a close friend's house party. On the weekends, DJs play the best in indy rock and have an excellent, expansive selection on-hand - have a request and they're likely to let you take the reins for a half hour while they get their drink on. Sundays and weeknights are a bit more subdued with regulars lounging about watching foreign films in the living room set-up, waiting for another crack at the foos table. No matter when you turn up, you're sure to feel welcome, certifiably cool and right at home. Look for the bright green neon 'play' button over the door...

Hey all, It seems to be a neat place for the music, of course, for the atmosphere and for the people. But as my taxi driver was saying, that's kind of a 'kinder' club meaning that the average age is in around 20.
Hey, if you're here in the winter get a snow disc and attack the massive hill across the street. Nothing better than drinking warm shots of krupnika between sled runs straight to the door of Vilnius' best bar. Actually, Taurus Hill is insanely dangerous plummeting you downhill at breakneck speeds straight into a line of parked cars and the street. You will probably hurt yourself. Have a buddy at the bottom to catch you/crash into/share bruises with. This is some extreme sledding (but fuck what a rush!).
This is probably my favorite bar in Vilnius: really laid-back atmosphere and a great mix of people every night. Seek it out.
