Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Loving the Depeche Mode music obviously helps. They show live concerts on their screens throughout the bar. it is a charming bar which also contains a game room.

Loved this bar and just unfortunate that we only discovered it on our last night in Tallinn. The host was very friendly and asked if I had any fav DM songs I wanted. My husband and I enjoyed great coffee liqueurs and spiced rum with...very good measures. I loved all the memorabilia all around the bar and it took me back to the early 80s/90s when my husband and I met and we used to dance to a lot of these tracks - such great memories. I would recommend to others and if ever back again in Tallinn I will make sure we revisit !More

Great to be back in the DM Bar, I've never spent a whole night here though, it's always been very quiet. Like the addition of the DM themed cocktails, fun selecting what to order. Staff could really help improve the atmosphere here, they couldn't or...wouldn't confirm which DM video was playing, for goodness sake, it's not too much effort to check what dvd is playing !!More

Slightly biased as I am a major Depeche Mode fan. I’ve visited this bar many times since 2001 and is just an amazingly different bar. Dan the owner is a really nice guy. Super atmosphere and a must visit if visiting Tallinn

We went as one of our group loves Depeche Mode and it seemed like a good way of killing a bit of time. Basic bar, not a lot on tap, plays DM on a loop and made a few of us happy as there were...4 pin ball machines. We spent about 30-40 mins here and that was plenty, well worth the trip for a one off experience but wouldn't return if I get back to Tallinn.More

Really original idea, and super cool spot for any depeche mode fan. They did a great job of designing and put a lot of thought into it all. I was hoping to get a souvenir but was super turned off by the t shirts being...45 euro. That's more than double the price of just about any other shirt I saw sold in Old Town. That's the cost of a nice dinner out on the town. If the prices were more reasonable I would give it 5 stars.More

I was looking forward to coming here, being a big Depeche Mode fan but honestly, wouldn't come back. Bar man was rude, it was filthy inside and the drinks were so overpriced. We payed 12 euro for half a pint of local beer and a...flat warm yucky vodka lemonade.More

Being average fans of Depeche Mode, we thought this place was very cool. A bar dedicated to this band, playing only their music and having their cocktail list named after songs from the band. What could be wrong about that !? The problem is that...this place is totally uninviting. The outside seating area is dark and feels like a pub. The bar being located downstairs, you have to take a dark-ish staircase and when you get in, you are greeted by unfriendly staff... even if no one is in the bar. Anywhere else than in the Baltics, the staff would be very welcoming to make sure the walk-ins stay and order a drink. The hard job is already done... drawing them in. You just have to finish the sale... and the people working in this place definitely don't know how to do that with their unfriendly attitude and service. We ordered a drink each because we wanted to hear DM music, and sat outside. Many people stepped in and came out right after, probably coming to the same conclusion... cool concept, but rude staff and empty bar so they'll spend their money elsewhere. It's a shame, as this place could be a money cow. Would not go back... and would recommend only to big DM fans.More

Dj plays only Depche mode songs. Goes for enthustiastics and fans. Premices are fine and atmosphere smooth. It’s worth of visiting. Bar is simple and dry..

It is a regular bar in the centre of the old town. Regular in so much that you can get a beer or choose form a wide range of cocktails. It has 3 rooms all playing Depeche Mode videos / live concerts and one with...game machines and pinball tables in. The cocktail menu is quite extensive and all named after Depeche Mode songs, also not badly priced at €7 ish each. The bar also has its own merchandise available.More

Maybe if you are big DM group fan you would like here. Friday night there was not much people. It's bar but it's feels like you are in some kind of club and too much monotonous DM music.

Honestly I couldn’t, a great bar worth visiting, even if it’s just for one drink. Totally devoted to Depeche Mode, and even they have been there to party the night away!

We went here late on a Sunday evening and the atmosphere was a bit dead. If you want to watch DM videos then it is fine, but otherwise probably not worth it.
