10, Ion Ratiu St.
Not far away from Insomnia, Zorki is apparently a photographers’ pub. If you go in there, you’ll most likely find exhibitions on the walls of the two rooms — one for the smokers, the other for the non-smoker customers. Sometimes they have live music, video, or drama performances.
They play nice music in Zorki, and I think this could be my favourite place in Cluj city if music weren’t horribly loud at all times of the day. At 3 or 4 p.m., when I’m there with my laptop (wireless Internet kindly provided on the house), I find it really annoying to have that nasty level of decibels in my ears. So it’s better to visit Zorki at night, because, of course, loud music is what you want in a pub after a few pints.
Here’s my (incomplete) list of nice pubs & restaurants in Cluj
