About this place Ganimedes

Ganimedes is the longest-running gay bar in Łódź, operating in various forms and locations since 1999. Current listings from In Your Pocket and TravelGay place it at Piotrkowska 138/140, in the OFF Piotrkowska area. Older listings give Aleja Piłsudskiego 6, a few steps away, so check the venue's Facebook page for the current entrance before going. It is an LGBT pub rather than a big club, with regular karaoke, drag shows and themed parties. Listed opening hours are 20:00 to 02:00, and it is busiest on Fridays and Saturdays. Reviewers in 2025 and 2026 describe it as one of the last dedicated LGBT pubs in the city. Some find the near-constant karaoke repetitive, while others love it. The crowd is mainly local gay men of mixed ages, with women and friends welcome. The same business runs the Ganimedes gay sauna at Sienkiewicza 37. Phone listed by guides: +48 662 32 71 44.

Whenever I'm in Łódź, I visit. Good prices and selection at the bar, great music for dancing and karaoke. And above all, the people create the perfect atmosphere – the DJs, the bartenders, and the customers.

DJ Sandra is a disaster... the music is in the wrong key, the participants are screaming, not singing. I think there are a lot of talented people here who have to scream instead of singing.

LGBT pub; there are almost no places like this in this city anymore. Small, atmospheric; regular clientele. You can always drop in. The clientele varies.
