M&V Bar is in the St Georg gayborhood. Founded in 1953, over the years this gay venue has welcomed a remarkable mix—from sailors and millionaires, to drag queens. The bar doubles as an art space, featuring rotating artwork, custom menus, and collectible drink coasters developed with local photographers and artists. Although not a full restaurant, M&V offers light bites, like cheese sandwiches or pretzels, alongside an extensive drink menu featuring beers and ten kinds of gin. There aren’t any scheduled events, and the music played is for background noise only. The quiet booths encourage intimate chats and new encounters. The crowd spans the 30–50 age range. The venue is non-smoking, and there’s a small outdoor seating area open during the summer.

M&V Bar opens weekdays from 5 pm and Fridays and Saturdays from 3 pm and closes nightly at 2 am.
