Last time I was in Riga I discovered a very interesting bar but had no time to visit it. This weekend I made sure to stop by it and I sure dont regret it.
The Armoury bar opened some 4 and a half months ago and is located in Old Riga. It is a bit off the tourist tracks but it is quite easy to find. You walk down the street from Riga Rock Cafe and in front of the Radi un Draugi hotel is an alley, alittle more than a hundred meters in the alley you ll notice its sign. Some locals might know about it so it doesnt hurt to ask a friendly Riganian for directions, and the adress there is Vecpilsetas iela 11-2.
This is more than a bar though,it is more like a little weapons museum where you can have a few drinks and at the same time study the weapons covering the walls, you can even touch them and play around alittle with them. Ofcourse all the weapons is deactivated.
They have a great selection of drinks including 60 whiskeys and 12 draft beers for a good price, with Happy hours on beers between 4-6 pm and 6-7pm for coctails.
The guy owning the bar is a very friendly guy and the girl working behind the bar is by far the koolest bartender I have ever met, happily posing together with guns for a photo if you ask her nicely.
I highly recommend you to make a stop by this bar on your next trip to Riga, one of the nicest cities of the Baltics.

You better behave when this bartender is on duty.

The US Marines I met was like kids in a toyshop.
The guests was happy to have some drinks and play around with their favourite toys.
