About

Café de Aesculaaf🍺 is a lively student bar located on Geert Grooteplein Noord in Nijmegen, right in the heart of the Radboud University campus. Known as "Dé Medische Faculteitskroeg" (The Medical Faculty Pub), it's a popular spot for students and locals alike looking for a relaxed and affordable place to grab a drink.

The atmosphere here is generally buzzing with youthful energy, especially during the week. It’s a casual spot, not fancy, where you'll find students unwinding after classes, chatting, and enjoying cheap beers. Expect a lively but friendly vibe, especially during happy hour or on nights when they have special events. While it can get quite crowded, especially on Thursday and Friday evenings, it's a great place to meet new people.

While not specifically a gay bar, Café de Aesculaaf🍺 is known for its inclusive and accepting atmosphere. Nijmegen is a progressive city, and this open-mindedness extends to its student bars. Everyone is welcome here, regardless of their background or identity, making it a comfortable space for LGBTQ+ individuals to socialize and enjoy themselves.

The bar regularly hosts themed nights and events, which add to its appeal. Keep an eye out for their happy hour deals and occasional parties – they're a great way to experience the bar's vibrant social scene. The focus is definitely on drinks rather than food, so come prepared to enjoy a few beers or mixed drinks with friends.

If you're looking to experience the student nightlife in Nijmegen, Café de Aesculaaf🍺 is a good place to start. It's busiest during the academic year, so consider checking it out during term time for the full experience. Be prepared for a lively crowd, especially on Thursday and Friday nights!
