Personal comments
Flanagan's student night on Tuesdays is always ridiculously popular with the exchange student. Drinks are super cheap but I find it too crowded. All of my German friends LOVED Cent Club on Zulpicher Platz cause it's so cheap. Personally I loved Loom at Friesenplatz the most but you'll find plenty of great places around to party at. Never a dull moment!
