MOQA
@feliciacarrara
MOQA has a fantastic array of drinks and food. You can even order flavored hookah here, and when night descends sit out in the cool air with MOQA blankets.

Kavkazskiy Dvorik Kafe
@feliciacarrara
Though this cafe serves Georgian food, not Kyrgyz, it is absolutely worth the stop, especially after a hike in the mountains.

Dvor Bar
@feliciacarrara
Dvor typically has live music sets and is right on the way to downtown, so it’s a great place to start your night. There are many beer options and fun cocktails!

Riders Bar

Rider’s is right on a mini lake which keeps the bar cool all night in the summer. The bar is open-air and also has hookah for the perfect night out.

Osh Bazaar
@feliciacarrara
Osh Bazaar is an intense cultural experience that is necessary for any visit to Kyrgyzstan. Take a local with you to get the full experience as many of the vendors only speak Kyrgyz, but you can get along fine with some Russian.
