This is one of my favorites in Riga. If you want to see a party with a traditional Latvian vibe, this is the place! It's a big place where people have meals, drinks and dance to live music or a DJ. There is always a traditionally Latvian twist to every event.
It's about a 40 min walk away from Your Space in Riga. Better to take public transport to the center and then walk there.
