About X-Baar

X-Baar in Tallinn is a legendary spot and the oldest gay bar in Estonia. Open since 1998, this venue is an iconic gathering place for Tallinn’s LGBTQ+ community and allies. The vibe is casual, unpretentious, and welcoming, making it a must-visit for both locals and tourists. Located slightly off the beaten path, it’s easy to miss, but once inside, you'll find two bars, a spacious dance floor, and cozy seating areas. Perfect for a chill evening or to dance the night away! X-Baar truly comes alive on weekends, with local and international DJs spinning late into the night. Expect a lively crowd after 10 PM, and don’t miss their themed nights and drag performances. If you’re looking for a more relaxed vibe, midweek visits offer a quieter, more intimate atmosphere. The bar proudly flies the rainbow flag year-round, making it a beacon of inclusivity in Tallinn. Plus, there’s no cover charge, so it’s easy to pop in for a drink and soak in the local gay scene. Whether you’re here to party or just relax with friends, X-Baar is the go-to spot for LGBTQ+ nightlife in Tallinn.

Super friendly staff and local customers. The bar is very big and has a nice terrace outside and pool table upstairs.

I went with my partner last Sunday night for a drink and it was nice. It was pretty empty (Sunday evening...), but the waitress was lovely, the few people in there were very friendly, and prices were good. I'll go back next time I'm in Tallinn!

Waiting 30 minutes for a drink in a half-empty bar is quite an achievement. The bartenders seemed more interested in chatting with customers than serving the queue that had formed at the bar. The Aperol Spritz arrived in a beer glass, and the beer was roughly 50% foam. The whole experience felt like the venue’s first day of operation, which is especially impressive on Pride weekend.

The place hosts nice parties sometimes but they have serious issues with security. They don't have any bouncers. So when last night I got physically attacked by some inebriated guy, the DJ pulled him out for a bit. But then in 5 mins he was back and the staff kept selling him alcohol like if nothing ever happened. Also I know several girls who got harassed there. Not safe, use for your own risk with a possibility to ruin your night.

I had the privilege of attending their 24th anniversary. To set your expectations: 1. There won’t be a lot of people (but the people who are there are very nice). 2. Make conversation don’t wait to be approached. I went on one of their busiest nights and had a great time. But I made an effort to make it happen. Definitely visit and grab a drink - people are friendly.
