Taipei nightlife
Wondering where to go clubbing in Taipei? Curious to know what the best bars in town are? 
Read out our ultimate guide on the best Taipei nightlife and get ready to party.

When it comes to nightlife, Taipei is considered one of the busiest cities in all Asia. There is a lot to choose from and you won’t have any problem whatsoever finding places to go when the sun goes down.
Depending on the district you find yourself in, things to do can be very different: families might prefer the Ximending neighborhood for the presence of markets and theatres, whereas students would rather go clubbing in the Xinyi district. Here is a list of the best city’s areas to go to enjoy the best nightlife of Taipei.

Da’an District: the best bars in Taipei

Taipei bars and nightlife

This is Taipei’s commercial and cultural district. Despite its name which means “great peace”, Da’an is one of the most bustling areas in Taipei and is home to some of the city’s trendiest bars.

On Tap

On Tap is a pub that recreates a British looking style, to the extent that the logo recalls the London Tube sign. Being a pub with an European vibe, it sells European draught beers and typical English dishes. What’s more is that on TV there will always be an European sport game.
It opens at 5 pm and closes late; on many nights it hosts special events, for example, Wednesday is “Lads’ night” and beer is cheaper than usual. As to prices, it’s quite expensive but definitely worth a try.

Ounce

Ounce is one of Taipei’s most trending bars of the moment. On the outside it looks like a coffee bar, but this shouldn’t mislead you, in fact inside it brings you all the way back to an American Speakeasy-style bar. In this dark hardwood and dim light location, you will find bartenders that will ask customers quick questions on alcohol flavor preferences and then will put together a unique top-rated cocktail.
It’s open every day, apart from Sundays, from 7 pm to 2 am. Reservations aren’t necessary, but on weekends it’s best to be there before 9 pm in order to find free seats. Drinks anyhow are expensive, with an average price of 500 TWD.

Ximending: the best night markets in Taipei

Ximending district, Taipei

This is a famous shopping area in Taipei, besides the first pedestrian area of Taiwan.
If you are travelling with your family, it will probably be the best place to spend the evenings in Taipei: you can choose between walking through a night market or going to see a play at the theatre. 

Huaxi Street Night Market

This market is very popular among tourists because of its bizarre collection of food products. Here you can buy snake meat and blood (which gives the market its nickname Snake Alley). The entrance is a traditional Chinese gate that gives way to the stands of food, souvenirs and Chinese herbs used as medicine. The market is great as a starting point for a tour of the old town and nearby you can find the Longshan Temple.
It’s open every day from 4 pm to midnight.

Theatre Street

Theatre Street in Ximending became popular in the 1930s and still is today. You can find beautiful historical buildings in which plays, concerts and performances are showcased. Many plays also narrate Taiwan’s history and is therefore a great moment of cultural growth.
