Kanapee

Kanapee on Neue Strasse is an institution in Erlangen's nightlife. Generations of students have celebrated their first semester weeks here, and the place has lost none of its charm. Prices are student-friendly, the atmosphere is relaxed, and the music selection ranges from indie and rock to the inevitable party classics. If you want to understand Erlangen, you need to have been to Kanapee at least once.

The interior is deliberately unpretentious — this is not about designer furniture but about good conversations and long nights. During the week, you will mostly find students stopping by for a cheap beer after lectures. On weekends it gets busier and louder, especially when DJ nights are on the program. Kanapee is proof that a bar does not need a cocktail menu to become legendary.
