Accra is not short of places to drink and relax, in every corner of this bustling city you will be sure to find a lounge or venue. With so many events in Accra and Ghana taking place you, there is always something going on and a venue hosting it. Our list of the most recommend bars is based on what our readers have put forward. So if you are after Afrobeats, Amapiano, hiplife, RnB or Jazz the Accra bars have you covered.

Types of bars in Accra

Depending on what you are looking for we are confident to say that Accra has a mixed array of venues. if you want a traditional Irish or English style pub or an authentic Ghanaian drinking den to a trendy hang out you will be sure to find it in Accra. In the Osu area you will usually find bars that are very much for the Instagram crowd which are cool and trendy. In areas further outside central Accra, there are lounge bars which offer a mix of chill and eating with good vides.

Are the bars open and operating normally in Accra?

Yes, all bars are open in Accra with the expectation of the ones that closed during the pandemic. Everything is back to normal with bars and clubs starting to accept full capacity again in Accra.

Why are there only 18 most recommended bars in your Accra list?

Ok, why eighteen and not 100 or 10. We spent a lot of time reviewing what was already available on the web as well as asking around and seeing what people are searching for on viewGhana. This list is a combination of most popular recommendations and the most searched.

Osu should just be called the “Strip” or the spot as this is where you will find 80% of the happening venues

Just a final word, when visiting a venue be mindful and have a little bit of patience for the dedicated bar staff who at times do get some bad reviews or are given a hard time. We know some can be very slow with the service even when venues not busy. If you have any feedback that you will like to share about a venue submit them below in our comments section.

We hope you enjoy our list of the 18 most recommended bars in Accra.
