Top Bars in Johannesburg

My advice is to check out their theme nights ahead of time! We stumbled in on a karaoke night and had a blast, but I would’ve loved to see some specific performances they have on weekends.

If you're looking to avoid the crowds, try hitting up Ratz Bar on a Wednesday or Thursday night. It was way less packed, and we could chat easier!

Don’t miss the themed nights! I thought it might be cheesy, but they were actually a blast and attracted a cool crowd. Plan your visit around them!

If you can, try to sit outside. The ambiance is way better, plus you get to people-watch which is always fun. Just be careful of the odd gust of wind!

Get there around 8 PM for a lively atmosphere. I found the later it got, the more packed it became, but earlier there were more chill vibes to enjoy a drink and chat.

My advice is to set aside your budget before you go in. The lap dance prices and taking a girl out can hit your wallet pretty hard, so be prepared for that.

I think it's best to visit during the week around 8 PM when it's less crowded. You’ll get more attention from the staff and girls, plus it’s way more chill.

I had a blast but if you're looking to save some cash hit up happy hour from 5-7 PM for cheap drinks. Who doesn't love a good deal right?
