Goaldigger10 1 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Morning guys, New arrival to the forum here - hello! I'm primarily a Liverpool fan, Born and bread near Liverpool but now liver over in Cork, Ireland. Over the last 5-6 years I've gradually become a big fan of the Bundesliga and Dortmund in particular. I tune in and watch games and highlights each week and as a Liverpool fan there are many obvious links and comparable traits in the two clubs and relative fan bases, not least Klopp, YNWA, The Kop / Yellow Wall etc etc... Anyway I'm planning on heading over to Dortmund myself next week with a few mates, We arrive Friday and leave Monday and will be attending the Freiberg game next Saturday afternoon. We're all sorted for accommodation, tickets etc but I was just wondering if anyone had any recommendations on decent pubs to visits and general advice on the nightlife on Friday & Saturday nights around Dortmund. Just to give you a bit of background into myself and my mates, We're all on or around the late 30's early 40's mark, like a nice pint in a good old fashioned pub but we're also not adverse to trendy new places, just looking for somewhere lively and active on a Friday and Saturday night, it would nice to mix and meet with locals and taste a bit of the authentic BVB fan match day experience. A bit of live music wouldn't go a miss, in terms of musical taste most of us would 90's indie kids, Oasis, Acoustic guitar bands etc so any of that would be great. Liverpool are also playing themselves on the Saturday night in the FA Cup so although not a deal breaker it would be nice to be able to watch that in a pub if its being shown anywhere - all recommendations welcome. thanks in advance Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy 11,326 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 To be honest, I don't know anything in Dortmund besides the Stadium and the train station. But I'll do some research later on and try to help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faithcore 1,271 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Hi, welcome! Hope you stick around. The best part of the forum is of course the bundesliga section which you already found. If you need help with an avatar @Batard can help you out. For any other questions you can contact @nudge. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy 11,326 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Apparently there's a Pub in Dortmund called Happy Happy Ding Dong. They have darts and everything, but the name alone should be worth a visit. I'll keep you posted when I have more news I just checked and on the 27th they have Rock'n'Roll Karaoke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy 11,326 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 @Goaldigger10 Someone else recommended a venue to me called "Subrosa". And there will be punk-ish live music on the 26th. https://www.hafenschaenke.de/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy 11,326 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 So I heard there's a 90's party in the "FZW" in Dortmund every Saturday, if that's what you're interested in. Other than that, I've heard more good things about the "Subrosa". So that seems like a good place to check out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goaldigger10 1 Posted January 18, 2018 Author Share Posted January 18, 2018 Like the sound of the 90’s night! Cheers lads. I’ll report back after I’ve been to let you know how we get on 👍🏼 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
