About Struts

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!

Great place! The bar itself is stunning and oh so comfortable and both me and my friend liked it a lot. Been here on my birthday on a little trip and it was quite a trek for us to get here but it was worth every step the drinks tasted and looked really well, person that made the drinks was very nice and one of my favourite parts is that selection of mocktails is similiar in size to cocktails so no matter if you're planning to drink alcohol or not you're sure to find something for yourself. Overall incredible experience and will be sure to come by again if I'm in Helsinki once more.

Nice cocktail bar with a good atmosphere. The cocktail I had was really tasty, but it would be great to see a bigger variety on the menu. Also, the portion size could be a bit more generous. Overall, a pleasant experience, just a few small improvements would make it even better!

Lovely, albeit small queer bar. The size is a shame, since the vibes are out of this world. Amazing cocktails, the decorations are absolutely stunning and the staff is very friendly. They have a small outside seating area as well. I've gone twice now, one time for the monthly (?) karaoke night and everyone is so lovely, supportive and unapologetically queer ❤️
