Pro'Rock Pub

Pro'Rock Pub is a rock and metal pub at Plac Dworcowy 2 in Gdańsk-Oliwa, in the Pomeranian Voivodeship of northern Poland. Oliwa is a leafy district in the north of Gdańsk, best known for its cathedral, park and zoo, and the pub sits by the railway station square, which makes it easy to reach by city rail from Gdańsk and Sopot. The crowd is made up of rock and metal fans, local regulars, students and travellers who prefer a pub with character to a polished cocktail bar, generally from the early twenties upward. There is no dress code, and band T-shirts, jeans and leather jackets are common. The atmosphere is friendly, loud-ish and unpretentious, with rock and metal as the dominant sound, and the programme includes rock karaoke and board game nights that give the pub a social, participatory side. The drinks programme is the main draw, with about 70 craft beers in stock, which allows a wide choice of styles from Polish and other breweries, along with spirits and simple pub food. Prices are mid-range, and a craft beer commonly costs from roughly 12 to 25 PLN depending on the style and strength. Opening hours usually run from the afternoon into the late evening or night, with Friday and Saturday busiest and the karaoke and board game nights set for particular weekdays, so the schedule should be confirmed locally. No cover charge is normally applied on ordinary evenings, though any special concerts may differ, and bottle service is not a feature. Reservations are rarely necessary, but groups may want to arrive early for event nights. For visitors based in central Gdańsk or Sopot, the pub makes a good stop after a day in Oliwa, where the cathedral organ concerts and park are the main daytime attractions. Details can change, so verifying hours and events before a visit is advisable.
