It's Laundry Time!
Part-bar, part-launderette, Stirka 40° is an artistic haven located just steps away from St. Petersburg city center. Loved by the local art and student crowd, as well as the expat community, this underground bar embodies the city's relaxed signature bohemian spirit.
Countless bands, including Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones, and Franz Ferdinand have parked their bandwagons at our door – to wash their sweat-soaked clothes after a sellout show and grab a drink. Oh, and don't even get us started on the night when British trip-hopper Tricky downed about a dozen Bloody Boyarsky cocktails (we have pictures to prove it)…
Sorry: we don't take reservations or host private events — but Stirka's doors are open to anyone who's nice and friendly during our working hours.
You're welcome to bring your birthday party, wedding reception, or corporate bash to our place without any prior arrangements. Just don't hold it against us if some strolling musicians steal your bride while you're trying to outdrink some delirious tattoo artist.

The big quote
Additionally, if you thought that the 40° in the name referred only to the temperature of the washing machine, you would only be halfway there. The number also refers to the percentage of alcohol in a bottle of vodka.
