Truly down to earth, U Kata is a smoky student favorite with a friendly, loyal crowd held together by a cheerful, very personable barkeeper. Quite possibly U Kata als has Bratislava’s cheapest drinks menu. This is a great place to top up with a few beers or shots before hitting the clubs. You must try Slovakia’s famous Tatratea, a tea-based liquor of which U Kata has all seven flavors (ranging in alcohol content from 17% to 72% — cause that’s how you survive a Winter in Slovakia’s Tatra mountains).
