Poolbar sits in the former kiosk of Freiburg's Faulerbad indoor pool, right above the swimming basin. Large windows open onto the pool below, while inside a bar with charmingly dated retro flair awaits.
The offering stays deliberately simple: fries, kiosk snacks and a changing program of karaoke nights, dumpling evenings and small concerts set the tone. Anyone looking for a relaxed spot to drop by rather than a polished show will feel at home here. Current dates and the food program are mostly announced on Instagram, as there is no fixed schedule.
Its location right at the pool makes Poolbar an unusual meeting point in Freiburg: half kiosk, half bar, with a touch of bathhouse nostalgia and a pinch of party spirit.
