MAMMUT BAR
Mammut Bar, nestled in Gamla Stan, invites visitors on an atmospheric journey into a dark 17th-century cellar vault. Illuminated by flaming torches and ambient lights, the space exudes a magical ambiance. Themed as a rock and metal bar, it bears the signature touch of renowned musician Martin “E-Type” Eriksson.
The pub is fairly new, having opened in February 2024, but since then it has hosted numerous pre- and after-parties, DJ events featuring well-known Swedish musicians, and E-Type himself often drops by to hang out with guests. Just watch out for the steep steps, and be aware that it can be hard to see down in the cellar – this place is seriously dark.

DEVIL’S FOREST PUB
The Devil’s Forest Pub is not accurately a metal pub per say. But if you visit Venice this pub is the naturally choice to visit for a beer while listening to some rock and metal. The one time I visited they play … Rammstein. Actually Rammstein was the only music the played the whole evening. Even when one of the bartenders went to change music is just change it from one Rammstein song to another Rammstein song.
The Devil’s Forest Pub claims to be the oldest pub in Venice. That might seems weird as the pub started in 1991–that ain’t exactly that long ago. However; what they mean is that Devil’s Forest Pub was the first real pub in the right sense of the word. I enjoy my stay at the pub as it has a relaxed atmosphere and good beer. Just the right place the spende the evening after too much walking during the day to see all the sightseeing Venice has to offer.
