About

Tucked away in the vibrant Kallio neighborhood of Helsinki, Struts Bar is a true gem of the city’s queer nightlife. This cozy cocktail bar has quickly become a favorite among locals and visitors alike, offering an inclusive space where everyone is encouraged to strut their stuff. With its eclectic decor, including a golden ostrich and an array of chandeliers, Struts perfectly blends cabaret vibes with a laid-back atmosphere.

The drinks menu is packed with flair—whether you’re into mocktails or prefer a ""fully cocked"" cocktail with a punch, Struts has something for everyone. Their mocktails are known for being just as exciting as their alcoholic counterparts, making it a great spot for non-drinkers as well. Plus, they host intimate performances on what’s said to be the smallest cabaret stage in Helsinki.

Whether you’re dressed to impress in sequins or just feeling comfy in your favorite jumper, Struts welcomes you with open arms. It’s the kind of spot where off-duty performers, LGBTQ+ folks, and allies all mix effortlessly. If you’re in Helsinki and looking for a queer-friendly night out with fabulous drinks and even more fabulous company, this is the place to be!

While the location is very small, it's gloriously and extravagantly decorated with a wonderful atmosphere.The staff is very friendly, instantly made us feel welcome. After a quick menu introduction, we ordered our drinks and sat down.The drinks arrived quickly, were very nice and fun to taste, but if I had to have any feedback, I'd wish they used larger ice cubes or just less ice as our drinks did become a bit watered down at the end in terms of flavour.If you're exploring Helsiniki, I'd definitely recommend giving this place a visit.

What this bar lacks in space it makes up a thousand times in atmosphere, friendliness, fun and all-round decadent magnificence! If you manage to go there for one of the nights when it’s transmogrified into “The World’s Smallest Cabaret” consider yourself lucky! Get yourself a “Bonnet” cocktail, sit / stand / lean and “whoop” your heart out! You won’t regret it!

This is hands down one of the best bars I've ever been to. It attracts amazing crowd. Had wonderful chats with people, shared stories and even discussed future of humanity, politics and world affairs. Yes exactly that. The music is fantastic and atmosphere is of the roaring 20's.We went two nights in a row: watched The World's Smallest Cabaret performance on the first night. Oh my. Fantastic. Tinkerbell, Nasard Le Sin and Turrrbo Cherry. Allll lovely and such great performers!When it comes to drinks, Bonnet is now my favourite cocktail of all times. We had like 10 probably if not more🤣Anyways, I'll be back! Thanks for two fantastic nights!

Very nice and cozy cocktail bar! Nice and lovely service, very good cocktails. We didn't even check the menu, we just went: "One mocktail with lime kind-of thing and a cocktail with tequila and something, they immediately had ideas what to do for us.The place is not very big, so having a table is a must. We were there Saturday evening and luckily still managed to have a table for us.Would recommend!

Honestly, HANDS DOWN the best bar in Helsinki. Not pretentious, well curated, solid drinks and great prices (for Finland). Amazing service also, would 100% suggest.
