Since I am spending so much time in Lutsk, we went checking out the local pub scene. Incidentally, I came across Noven’s pictures that perfectly show the decor of Obolon pub, the locals lovingly call it “Korablik”. Btw, the photographer has much more nice stuff on his site here. If fact I like it so much, I may have to put out his illustrated profile later here.

The pub offers sumptuous interior, styled to look like a pirate hide out. A band of an accordion, a guitar and a contrabass either wanders around the pub or performs at the stage the typical local favorites. The kitchen serves typical Ukrainian hearty meaty fare. The address is Voli prospekt ? (ask the driver for further directions :0)

Maidain is the well-established older brother pub of Korablic. Its decor is equally exiting, done more in ethnic Ukranian colyba kind of style. All major indie musical acts that come to town perform in the pub’s 2nd hall.
