Places I have been in Bishkek, will update as I go to them -- my main focus is on whether they have sit down toilets or squatting toilets. Clubs (age), restaurants/cafe's (food/toilet). Pics to come.
Lu S: Older crowd; early 30's and up; music is okay. Drinks expensive. Squatting toilets. Entrance fee. I went on a Sunday -- empty at 10 pm but a bunch of people start coming in after midnight.
Lu S: Friday night: really young crowd; maybe 21 and under, mostly women, not many guys, music is okay, if you go to the restaurant first you get free entrance; women dancing in underwear on stage.

Lu S: squatters, food is ok - not impressive but popular with the locals, getting seated is up to you -- see someone finishing ->stand behind them&get it or you'll wait forever, not a place to sit and chat

Lu S: 100 COM/Hour for VIP booth; SIT DOWN TOILETS! (seat covers,soap,paper towels,air freshener - automatic and spray) thick hot chocolate, reading material, good dessert; gorgeous waitress. out/indoor.new
Lu S: Smoky, good cheap food, decent music, young crowd (under 25), sit down toilets, no cover charge BUT you have to pay/spend 500 com per person in food/drinks. If you don't eat/drink, it's still 500 com

Lu S: Place to be on national holidays -- music events are there very often;all wedding parties must go to take a pics&put flowers@eternal flame (funny b/c flame was shut off when govt didn't pay gas bill)
Lu S: <3 <3 <3 cheap,150-300 com usually, unless Russian -- then much more expensive; sometimes musical concerts too, beautiful ceiling, squatters and sit down toilets w/o seats, food available for purchase
Lu S: Beautiful painted ceilings! Horribly maintained -- statues taped back together with clear packing taping (hysterical!). If you can fake that you're local, it's much cheaper.
