Stuttgart

Stuttgart is greener and more sociable than many people think. The scene is spread across the city centre and the Bohnenviertel.

The scene

A classic is Café Monroe’s on Schulstraße, while on Bopserstraße the former Boots Westernbar lives on as reBOOTS. Things get cosy at Café Weiß and Jakobstube in the Bohnenviertel.

When to go?

  • July – CSD Stuttgart: Parade and Hocketse (street party) in the city centre.
  • Advent: Christmas market in the Old Town.
