If you and the girls are looking for the best place to enjoy any these delicious traditional dishes, then you’ll want to head over to Munstermann Kontor, situated in the central Carlstadt area of the city. Specialising in delicious German cuisine, this extremely popular eatery also has a great menu of French and Central European dishes too. If you'd rather something safe and close to home, Bob & Mary's hamburger joint has got your back.

When heading back from a big night out in Dusseldorf, why not consider swapping out that usual kebab and chips for some German late-night food? If you and the girls head over to Schweine Janes, you can expect a range of delicious German takeaway foods to try, which are both reasonably priced and HUGE!

Luckily for you, Dusseldorf is known for an incredibly varied food and drink offering which ranges from speciality local and international favourites. But of course, since you are going for a hen party in Dusseldorf, you will probably want to try out some of the traditional dishes. And among all of them there are to try, we have a few of the most popular that you need to look out for.

The Halve Hahn is a local cheese served with cumin and rye sandwich. If you are after something warmer then look out for the Rheinischer Sauerbraten. This is a marinated roast that was once traditionally cooked with horse meat, but it has now been replaced by beef, pork, venison or mutton. And of course, what visit to a German city would be complete without sampling the local brew? Dusseldorf’s “Altbier” follows an old recipe originating from the Westphalia region that’s unlike any other beer you’ve tasted before!

Where to Shop in Dusseldorf?

Where to Shop in Dusseldorf?

Known for being the fashion capital of Germany, Dusseldorf couldn’t possibly get any better when it comes to shopping! Its city centre avenues are dotted with high street fashion brands and more shops than you can count, one of these being Königsallee. Known simply as Kö by local people, this is easily one of the busiest and best streets for fashion shopping anywhere in the country. Stretching exactly one kilometre, the avenue is known for the canal and landscapes area that runs alongside it, making it one of the more aesthetically pleasing shopping experiences!

As well as the city’s stunning shopping streets, it also boasts some of the best indoor shopping malls in Germany too. The Düsseldorf Arcaden is a 2-floor complex that houses over 100 high street stores, restaurants and services, making it the perfect destination to head to for a full day of shopping.

Another one of Düsseldorf’s amazing indoor malls is the Schadow-Arkaden. Situated just off Königsallee in the city centre, this large indoor complex houses 60 stores and a number of restaurants. If you happen to be shopping on Königsallee and want to extend your trip to make it a full day, stopping here on your route is both convenient and a great idea!

Guide to Dusseldorf Nightlife for Hen Weekends

Dusseldorf’s nightlife is situated along the Rhine River, a gorgeous setting to be against as the night draws in and all the party goers come out! For the girls amongst you who have never experience a night out in Dusseldorf, you can expect it to be vibrant, cool and sophisticated to say the least!

Altstadt (The Old Town)

The city’s premier nightlife hotspot, Altstadt is the hub of all things nightlife, and turns into a massive adult playground after dark. From quirky pubs to stylish cocktail bars, there’s a venue to suit every type of bride to be – that’s why this district is referred to worldwide as the “longest bar in the world”! In the 260+ bars here, there’s a few favourites such as MAITAI cocktail bar for strong drinks and an exotic theme. Alternatively if you’re looking for a true German experience, it’s wise to experience Uerige, a hugely popular microbrewery that curates some of Dusseldorf’s favourite beers.

For cocktails, one of the top bars to visit is the unassuming Cubanitos Bar. From the outside the venue looks tiny and mysterious, but inside you’ll find dim-lights and cosy seating to pair your seriously amazing cocktails with. And just like most cities around the world, Dusseldorf has it’s fair share of Irish pubs! McLaughlin’s will make you feel like you’re sitting in Belfast drinking a pint of Guinness, but if you’re looking for a huge venue and rowdy atmosphere there’s no better pub than The Irish pub Bei Fatty’s to quench your thirst and have you dancing on tables!

It’s likely that you won’t get around all the bars and pubs in Dusseldorf on a short and sweet weekend, but knowing the best places to go beforehand can really narrow things down. If you’re looking to follow the locals, one bar that’s always buzzing is Sir Walter, a little further from the centre of Old Town. And just down the road? Weißer Bär is a great place to start the night with a bit of grub and outdoor seating. Because both of these places are out of the central Altstadt area, we suggest you start here and work your way in as night falls and the crowds come out.

Nightclubs

When the night is well underway we are sure you will be wanting to head out to a nightclub. There’s a few options around Dusseldorf city centre, the Old Town and a bit further into the sticks. Taxi’s and transport is sleek in Dusseldorf, so getting to and from nightclubs slightly further out won’t be an issue! For the most popular, enjoy a night at The Nachtresidenz Düsseldorf nightclub in the city centre. This bustling venue is always backed with partygoers, with bright lights and drinks flowing until 6am on weekends.

Nachtresidenz nightclub is the biggest you’ll find in Dusseldorf but doesn’t necessarily mean the best! Other, smaller contenders like Schickimicki club are also a huge hit for tourists all year round. Situated in the Alstadt Old Town, you can easily hop from your last bar to this bumping club and end your night with a boogie.
