MOSCOW BARS & CAFES

The offer of Gay bars in Moscow is quite varied. Russian gays meet mostly in the evening, after work, or at night, before to go for clubbing. Most of the bars remain open until the last bottle of Vodka is sold... which can be 6 am. Most of the places presented below are typical of Moscow Gay Life and if you stay long enough, we invite you to visit a few of them if not all.
