Thread: City Club Paderborn

VTT You knew most of the Places in Paderborn was the Black and White Club in the centre of town underneath the shopping complex if so it brings back many late night memories.

I left Paderborn in 1982. My daughter was on the way, born in BMH Rinteln. In 1996 I took the family on Le Grand Tour and we went back to Padders.

I was mortified to discover that during the intervening years, some TWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT had built an upstairs over the top of a not unattractive typical German city (if you are into that sort of thing).

I was there in the late 70's ...I remember the walls being painted red so you couldn't see the blood...

Arrghhh! The City Club! Scene of my downfall with a fat tart called Doris who gave a dose so bad that I was off the drink for 4 months, the guys thought it was fun having a full time chaueffeur though. I learned that drunk squaddies are not fun to be with and women must really be desperate to be picked up by them. My re-entry into the drinking scene was during CAT 83 and man was I bladdered or what!

A couple of more good watering holes were Onkel Toms Kabin,I played Football for them(Goalkeeper)in the early 80`s Chris Atkins owned the place(last time I saw him was early 90`s he was a photographer in Schlos Neuhaus. Another was the Red House (for a time out of bounds) and you could smell why as soon as you walked through the door but F**k it played the best heavy metal and rock around.

Not forgetting the other place just down the road - Tanz Cafe Regina at Bad Drieberg. Always went there from Detmold, drinking the green special on top of a belly full of beer. Fair few reasonable looking birds in there as well.

Indeed I do, now I plan to take some snaps of the locations mentioned this Saturday, however due to the amount of 'Paderborner' consumed over the years. I will need some help in pinpointing, the following dives. Movie Star, Uncle Tom's Kabin

Uncle Tom's Kabin is long gone now, a shop now I think. Chris works as a photographer now and has a shop in Barker Bks.

Uncle Tom's. It's a lifetime ago but here you go.

Come down Neuhauserstrasse from the Infanteriekaserne, turn right into Friedrichstrasse and head up to the Westerntor. ISTR the Hotel Arosa (I also STR its neon sign was visible all the way back from the ridge line as you came toward Padders from Salzkotten and the Channel Ports) is on that road. City Club is just behind Friedrichstrasse.

Cross Le-Mans-Wall and bear left toward Eckstrasse which goes round the back of a single block which backs onto the railway line. On the corner of Eckstrasse away from the main road, slip through the gap in the wire and stagger drunk across the railway lines onto Leostrasse. Head due east on Leostrasse keeping the railway on your left, leaving Geroldstrasse on your right. Uncle Tom's is set back from the road about halfway between Geroldstrasse and Killanstrasse. Except of course it hasn't been Uncle Tom's for many a year.

Okay I lied. I went on Live Maps. But some things you never forget.

OK so I have been there today & it's good news :D & sad news :( . paders town centre hasn't changed that much, but they have crammed a lot more bars & shops into thos cobbled streets. The places shown are those that were favoured back in 79-86 before those TTWWAAATTSS the QLR showed up and ended years of great relations with the local barmen & ladies.

Toms cabin I think



Red House with the side entrance bricked up.



Movie Star now part of the picture house/hair dressers.



Sagenbunken, located in the centre near C&A's



City Club, no more but it still has the stairs & a lift :D



The Bolton 5, next to the City Club.



Black & White,just for 06FA56Paderborn



King George, no more



London Pub, gone upmarket, one of the bar maids 'Smelly Leslie[b] also worked in the cinema in Normandy Barracks :D



The Best food in Paders, The Deutches Haus & you can still get a meal under 9 euros :D :D :D



And when you left the London Pub or Deutches Haus, you always stopped off for the best Gyros in Paders, to get you back to camp in time for breakfast. And it hasn't changed a bit :D

My God Uncle Tom's has been brightened up!

But the pics prove the adage: never go back. It spoils the meories.

Gyros my lips are drooling.

Deutsches haus, good grub.

Thats not the Red house I remember it was along from the bahnhoff opposite the railway sidings.

I went back to Paderborn and SEnnelager 3 years ago with the ACF, what a change to both places, I was\there with a ex 39 Regt guy, we were well disappointed with the places.
