About this place Bar Ikarus

Bar Ikarus calls itself 'Gay bar Ostrava' and has been running on Nádražní street since 2000; it marked its 25th anniversary in August 2025. It's a small bar with music and late dancing a few minutes' walk from Stodolní, and recent Google reviews describe a mixed crowd of students, artists and regulars alongside the gay one. It's the easiest place in Ostrava for a drink without the cruise-club side of Tunel. Several 2025 reviews note that it doesn't take cards, so bring cash. Its website lists Monday to Saturday from 19:00, closed Sundays, and posts holiday closures.

For more than a quarter of a century, Ostrava's legendary poison hut has been sought after by students, artists and freethinkers of all kinds. A wonderful atmosphere that invites you to dance after a few sips of something sharper.

When you don't know where you're going, you sometimes end up here. It usually stays here until late in the morning.

A hellish purgatory that decomposes your soul and sells it to the king of hell himself. God-forgotten entities sinfully writhe in the music of Eve Parish, Abbey or other pop horrors and horrors that will permanently damage not only your hearing but also your innocence... At the bar you will see a lot of stone faces with darkness in their eyes. A suspiciously crooked bartender will sell you golden juice, for a little bit, but in reality you are paying with something much more valuable to you. From the juice, a fruit looks at you, seemingly reminiscent of the familiar earthly stone fruit, but even Beelzebub himself would hesitate to taste it. Because just as Adam and Eve had their fruit of sin, you now hold your passion in your hand. If you do not resist the lures and intrigues of the Icarus bar, you will get lost in the darkest and most terrible streets of your soul. Then there's no going back, there's no god here to save you, here God is dead... Otherwise I love it, I like going there with my friends. One of the few bars that is often open after 3am, great prices, ideal for students...
