About this place Café de Prins

Café de Prins is a bar at Zwanestraat 3 in central Groningen, a short walk from the Grote Markt. It is listed with us as a gay bar, but we have little detail on its crowd or programme. Its Google rating is 4.5 from about 180 reviews. Groningen's gay venues are few and close together, so it is easy to combine this with others in one evening. Check cafedeprins.nl for current opening hours and any themed nights before you go.

Went in while desperately needing a break from checking out the town and the local Christmas market. Was easy to find a place to sit around 18, but quickly filled up very soon after I came in. Really lovely bartender, made a great Irish coffee :) Would love to come back whenever I'm in town next.

We passed by here on a (very) early Saturday evening. It looked relaxed, so we went in. It was very quiet (understandable at that time), but we felt no less welcome. Friendly bartender. Nice atmosphere. (Clean restrooms 😅) And good drinks.

Cozy cafe, where even as a loner you can get conversation.

Friendly neighborhood gay bar. Very welcoming to travelers. Usually not too crowded and the music is at a level where you can still have a conversation.
