What reviewers say

Visitors praise the venue for its great atmosphere, friendly people, and unique music selection, especially for fans of German pop or old hits. However, a common complaint is the allowance of smoking inside, which bothers non-smokers, and some find the music not to their taste.

About this place Barcarolle

Barcarolle is one of Hannover’s oldest gay bars, a piece of local history in the city’s LGBTQ+ scene. It’s been around since the 1960s, and the interiors look it — in a good way. Think retro, not rundown. That gives it a real character you won't find in newer places. The bar scene in Hannover has all sorts, but Barcarolle is where you go for something classic and community-minded. It's relaxed. Regulars and visitors hang out, chat. The place has stuck around because it’s a dependable spot for the local LGBTQ+ community. You'll find it at 8 Konkordiastraße, easy to get to in central Hannover. If you want a casual drink, some good company, or just to see a bit of the city’s gay bar past, this is it. Check http://www.barkarole.de/index.html for hours and what's on.
