Grenzwert
(7 min. by tram 8/14 to Rheingasse or 16 min. on foot)
Like a phoenix rising from the ashes. After the fire in Rheingasse in summer 2019, Grenzwert Bar found an interim home in Ochsengasse, and when you walk into the exotic little garden, you almost feel like you’re in paradise. Whether in this exile or perhaps soon very close to the Rhine, the "Grenzi" is a place with which almost every local associates his or her own story.
Reneé
(9 min. by tram 8 to the Kaserne or 18 min. on foot)
Renée has the ambiance of an underground club somewhere in a big city. Maybe because it’s in Basel’s red-light district, or maybe because of the hot music and trendy decor. Champagne and cocktail fans will get their money’s worth.
K-Bar
(9 min. by tram 8 to Kaserne or 19 min. on foot)
A place where night owls, individualists, tourists, artists and hipsters as well as business people meet and socialize in a pleasantly relaxed atmosphere. On the large terrace you are right in the middle of everything else that the Kaserne has to offer.
Herz Bar
(8 min. by tram 14 to Claraplatz or 15 min. on foot)
Located in the heart of Kleinbasel between the trade fair and the Rhine, you’ll find the contemporary neighborhood bar. Behind the “heart” are Martin Bornemann and Norbu Tsering - hosts by conviction and passion! There you will find ever-changing cocktail creations. Mint and fig leaves in summer, truffles and pears in autumn or sloes and chestnuts in winter. They bring you the season in the glass and take you with you to discover our region.
Cargobar
(7 min. by tram to Johanniterbrücke or 20 min. on foot)
It is the hub for culture and was the first place in Basel where bar and cultural activities function side by side in one space. A wide variety of levels come together in a very small space: meeting place, entertainment, beverage culture, music as background or as a concert, video, installations - and all with a direct view of the Rhine.
Werk 8
(10 min. by tram 15 to Tellplatz or 20 min. by foot)
WERK 8 is located in the middle of the up-and-coming Gundeldinger district, and is now a restaurant, bar and trendy meeting place at the same time. Located in the hall of a former machine factory, WERK 8 combines industrial charm with a cozy atmosphere. Homemade infusions, syrups and self-created cocktails testify to the creativity of the young and passionate bar team, which has already won several awards.
