June 2015 – Kalevankatu 3, 00100 Helsinki, Finland I wasn’t even on Untappd yet when we were in Finland!! Luckily I took this photo of our first beer in Helsinki. We had a horrible flight. We flew overnight getting no sleep, and arrived in the late afternoon. That seems to be the only flight schedule …

Excalibur Cafe – Amsterdam
June 2018 – Oudezijds Achterburgwal 48, 1012 DP Amsterdam, Netherlands This had more of a hard rock vibe than a metal vibe. They were playing hard rock too. They had cool shit like armour, but I think it actually felt a bit theme park-y. Perhaps due to the location on the main thoroughfare of the …
Escobar & Copenhell – Copenhagen
June 2017- Blågårdsgade 2A, 2200 København, Denmark This is kind of weird, but neither my husband nor I can remember ANYTHING about this bar. The only reason I even remember we went there is that we joked about what an odd name it is. I only took photos of my beers, so no clues there …
Rockcafe Backstage & Fortarock – Nijmegen
June 2018 – Bloemerstraat 131, 6511 EH Nijmegen, Netherlands We were in town for the Fortarock festival and I had Googled metal bars in Nijmegen, but nothing came up. So we were pleasantly surprised when we walked past this place while exploring the town the day before the festival. As you can see they have …

The World’s End – London
June 2018 & June 2019 – 174 Camden High St, Camden Town, London, England For those of you wondering, no this is not the bar from the Simon Pegg movie. That bar is fictional. There are actually many pubs in London with this name. I stumbled across this interesting article on it. This is not …
The Crobar – London
June 2018 – 17 Manette Street, Soho, London, England This was the first bar we went to our first time in London, before we became Camden converts. I don’t remember much about the decor, but I do remember a diverse, odd, and very friendly crowd. My husband, being my husband, asked the guy next to …
Our Black Heart aka The Black Heart – London
June 2018 – 3 Greenland Place, Camden Town, London, England So, going forward all my pictures will be from my Untappd account. Until I go to some new bars in the future, that is. But I am now going back in time, and Untappd and my brain are the only records I have, unfortunately. This …

Non Iron. Pub – Krakow
June 2019 – Świętego Marka 27, 31-024, Kraków, Poland I’m going to include the fails in this blog, too! I learned a valuable lesson from this one. If you Google “metal bar Krakow” and a bar with a literal metal in the name comes up, the name is probably the only reason it comes up. …
Rock Shot aka Cemetery Pub aka Grodzka 42 Hard Rock Pub – Krakow
June 2019 – Grodzka 42, 33-332, Krakow, Poland Not sure what’s going on with the multiple names here, but I am sure of one thing… this place is metal as fuck. It is nearly impossible to find, even though it’s right on a busy street. There is just a small, and very easy to miss, …

Underdogs – Rouen
June 2019 – 30 Place de la Haute Vieille Tour, Rouen, France This is the last post from France, although since I’m working backwards through the trip it was actually the first bar we went to. It was probably my favourite, although by a pretty narrow margin. There were some pretty fantastic pubs in France. …
