A travel blog about metal and craft beer.
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 …

December 2018 – Urb. Industrial Los Angeles, Principal, Calle 65 Oeste, Panamá City, Panama Well, this below is apparently the only photo I took here. We had to take a cab, it’s kinda far from the centre. I had looked up events and was quite sure there was a show on this night. That was …
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 …
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 …
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 …

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. …
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, …

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. …
June 2019 – 24 Rue Sainte-Barbe, Saint-Malo, France Okay, here’s another one that isn’t actually a metal bar. But I can’t be the only metalhead that also listens to Dropkick Murphys or Flogging Molly? They played all Celtic/Celtic punk when we were there. Interestingly we heard The Last Saskatchewan Pirate by Captain Tractor, a band …
June 2019 – 2 Rue Kervégan, Nantes, France Now, this one is definitely a metal bar! Look, they even have an Iron Maiden flag on the ceiling. 🙂 We were there the day after Hellfest, so it was pretty busy. I don’t imagine it’s always this packed on a Monday, but I did get the …
