About the café:
Retro bufete Melodija continues the story of the VINYLLA music shop. For 11 years the shop has offered the widest and largest selection of vinyl records in Riga. Here in the retro buffet you can sip coffee with Riga Black Balsam or cocoa with whipped cream, and choose between classic Latvian cakes – “Vecrīga”, “Napoleons”, “Cielaviņa”, “Eklērs” or “Krēmšnite”.
Our interior is made of authentic objects from a bygone era, a nod to the café culture of those days… We regularly host events that fit the spirit of the café: DJs play vinyl records that are already 30–40 years old, and at live music nights you will hear the popular melodies our parents remember from the dance evenings of their youth.
We are also planning “Video salon nights” – stay tuned for the upcoming video evenings…

“Labākā “Vecrīga” ārpus Vecrīgas, plašs plašu piedāvājums, fantastiska atmosfēra un saldējuma kokteilis dienas piedāvājumā par 2.50 EUR, ko vēl var vēlēties?”

Likteņa ironija
Vecgada vakars nav iedomājams bez "Likteņa ironijas"
Piedzīvo video salona seansu, kopā ar draugiem, vai svešiniekiem, kuri uzreiz kļūst par draugiem, jo tāpāt kā tu - gandrīz visi filmas dialogi ir zināmi no galvas un korī skan unisonā ar filmu...

Video salon night
Harolds un Mode
Iespējams visu laiku romantiskākā no melnā humora komēdijām: Harolds un Mode.
Kad divas radniecīgas dvēseles atrod viena otru, tad šķērslis nav ne sociālais stāvoklis, ne vairāku paaudžu cienīga vecuma starpība. Filmas odziņa noteikti ir arī Keita Stīvensa mūzika.

Imersīvs kvests
BĀRS «PĒDĒJAIS ZVANS»
Tas nav parasts kvests vai komandu spēle. Tu kļūsi par detektīvstāsta varoni, kurā piedalās arī īsti aktieri. Katram sava loma. Un ne visiem var uzticēties.
Meklē un izpēti pierādījumus, sadarbojies ar citiem tēliem, atklāj noslēpumus un ietekmē uz sižeta gājienu. Arī no Tevis būs atkarīgs, kā viss beigsies!
Iepriekšēja pieteikšana ir obligāta: katrs dalībnieks savu lomu saņems privātā ziņā. Vietu skaits ir ļoti ierobežots, un katram spēlētājam ir īpaši izstrādāta loma.
Retro bufete Melodija, Avotu iela 2, Rīga
15 € / personai
