Fun and entertainment Indre-Et-Loire

From the small terrace outside, this place smells of travel: with Karla, the hostess, you're in Guatemala, where coffee is king! Here, coffee comes in espresso, latte and cappuccino varieties. We also serve classic and less classic hot and cold drinks, such as the delicious Pumpkin or Pink Latte. Even better with a cheesecake or homemade cookie! At lunchtime, you can devour a dish of the day, fajitas or nachos, or the Guatemalan Sunday brunch, with plantains and black beans. ¿Qué café prefieres?

A little bit of Corsica on the side, good wines in the glasses, here is an address that we like! On the Place Châteauneuf, this bar owned by the Ettori family will suit wine lovers, but also beer and cocktail lovers. The bar unfolds all in length, under the tufa stone which gives it its charm. In this cosy cocoon, the welcome is warm and the service at the top for a convivial or festive moment. One comes there sometimes for events (DJ set for example), but especially to discover beautiful things to taste, with a splendid sight on the terrace on the Charlemagne Tower and the place Châteauneuf, pedestrian since five years, for the biggest pleasure of the customers.

The address of the cinephiles and for good reason: here is the biggest art house cinema in Europe with 7 comfortable rooms. On the screen, a quality program, documentaries, and films for the general public, in subtitled V.O. For film lovers: previews and meetings with directors, a free access library and festivals (Désirs Désir, Viva il Cinema...). A must: the Studio Night in June to watch great classics on the "black screen of our sleepless night". The cafeteria will treat you to home-made and cheap products.

It's one of those bars that's not in Old Tours, but it's well worth the detour. Not far from the train station, Franck celebrates the love of beer. With him, you'll discover real gems from Belgium and beyond. A dozen draught beers with regular new releases, over 400 beers on the menu, and always sound advice will help you find the perfect beverage. The quiet terrace, billiards table, big screen and warm ambience of the dining room provide a convivial setting for this tasting experience.

Tours-sur-Loire has become a summer must for tourists and Tourangeaux. This ephemeral bar installed at the water's edge expands from season to season. From May to September, three spaces are installed on the quays: the "historical" guinguette, west of the Wilson bridge, with its concerts and various animations. On the east side of the bridge, Chez Dupont offers a retro and calm atmosphere. On the other side of the bridge, the Beach, where calm and nature reign supreme. With family, friends, for a drink or an animation, everything is possible!

Beurre Noisette is so named because pastry chef Clémence's favorite cake calls for hazelnut butter! This cake, the mainstay of the house, is the financier. Here, pastries are homemade from the heart. She bakes flavors that go very well together, such as pepper and chocolate, but also tries out amazing combinations of tastes, notably in a lemon-hazelnut tart. Brunch is now served every day, with a special offer for children on Wednesdays. We love the sourdough toast and shakshuka. We love them.

Locked in a room with your team, will you be able to get out before the time limit? Escape Yourself was one of the first escape games to open in Tours, in the heart of the city. The universes are varied and regularly renewed, but the principle remains the same: in teams of three to eight players, you will have to find clues, reconstruct codes and solve puzzles to get out before the end of the timer. A good plan for treasure hunting and puzzle lovers. The little extra: a group photo at the end of your adventure.

A successful bet for Nicolas and Nadège! The two managers of this wine bar like no other have indeed chosen a change of career and region to embark on the Bibovino adventure. The concept? The sale of wines in cubes, and a small homemade restaurant. Hot toasts and big salads as well as generous aperitif boards accompany a nice selection of wines. On the menu, you will find reds, whites and rosés offered by the glass for a tasting at the table, with the couple's advice. A good way to make your choice before buying a cubi. For Nicolas, the cubi format can only be seductive: your 3 liters can be kept for several weeks after opening without being altered... so no more waste for your favorite wines!

It's your turn to be the bartender! Here, the concept is simple: the customer buys a prepaid card and can then help himself to one of the beer dispensers scattered around the double room with its industrial decor. Ideal to taste a few centilitres before deciding, since you only pay for what you consume. And it also allows you to meet beer lovers sitting near the taps! For the shy ones, the service at the bar is also possible, with cocktails, whiskies and other wines on the menu. For the gourmets, there are sausages and comté to share. Sports atmosphere on game nights, and you can also participate in the weekly quizzes. It's your turn to play!

In the heart of Amboise, discover this colourful family tea room. The welcome is charming: the daughter (Clara) is the pastry chef and the mother (Isabelle) is the waitress. A pleasant and cosy place for various times of the day: at breakfast with two copious formulas, between noon and two for a soup or a dish of the day, at snack time for a surprise box, or a plaid formula for comfort on the sofa. You can also order a decorated cake for your special occasions. Lots of colours and delicacies to discover on the spot or to take away!

This little workshop is a magnet for coffee lovers of all kinds. A terrace on rue Colbert, and a room with a soft, trendy atmosphere, with its comfortable armchairs, wooden counter and world coffees to sip! Not only is the range of coffees wide, but the roasting and preparation methods are just as varied. Espresso or slow coffee, hot or iced, it's all excellent, and the sweet (cookies, scones...) or savory (quiches, only on rue Colbert) snacks are the perfect complement. We love the charming welcome!

Created in 1997 by theatrical improvisation pros, this company offers weekly workshops and improvisation courses for all ages and levels, from children to adults, and even activities in companies. It is known by the public for its Catch impros in Chambray. On the program: a ring, a real-fake security service, a referee, themes submitted by the public, and comedians who invent hilarious stories. With the show "Impro marmot" for children, and the shows of amateur comedians, there is plenty to do!

A great place to change your mind and spend a pleasant moment with friends. This place is a lounge bar which will change you from your daily life. The welcome is very nice, the atmosphere is warm. The concerts ensure a convivial atmosphere. A suspended terrace to be calmer and taste one of the many original cocktails: the Exotik bomber, the Aphrodite, the Coco Rico... But also long drinks, shooters, a wide choice of beers and wines. And even delicious ice creams! Affordable prices for the quality of the drinks.

Welcome aboard Le Corsaire, dear sailors, this bar at the bottom of Grammont Avenue that one inevitably wants to introduce to one's friends and family. How not to notice the wooden front and the portholes when you pass in front of it? The interior allows you to enter a ship that will remain in Tours, but will lead you in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere in the wonderful land of cocktails. Giant cocktails for some, colorful, an experience apart. In fact, we almost don't talk about glass anymore but about vase as the sizes are so impressive. Very good value for money for a unique moment. Good tasting matey!

This contemporary music venue (SMAC) is dedicated to jazz, since 1983 ! It is an institution of jazz in the Centre region, but not only! In addition to welcoming big names of jazz or emerging talents, the concert hall takes part in the festivals Ecoute-Voir, Super Flux, Emergences, Chinon en Jazz... With the Choeur du Petit Faucheux and its teenage singers, and its socio-educational activities, the venue is open to all. And with the new programmer Antoine de La Roncière arriving in 2021, we can't wait to discover new projects.

A bar for drinking and eating: this is the rule at La Vida Loca. On the small terrace, in the dining room on the first floor or upstairs, we enjoy ourselves. On the drinks side, we find the classics of any bar in Touraine: local beers or not, good wines and well proportioned cocktails. On the plate, there is a wide range of tapas and small home-made dishes. In addition to the dish of the moment, often traditional and well-prepared, you can opt for burgers, homemade guacamole and other hummus in addition to the classic cheeses and cold cuts. And on Sundays, it's brunch, always in a nice, dynamic and rock'n'roll atmosphere.

A racecourse for horse lovers who don't get to see them every day! Here, you can watch the races live, or even place a bet if you're not too keen. The space is huge, so it's also ideal for a stroll. If you're a rider, you can take advantage of the self-service stalls, or reserve your own. Among other things, the site offers catering, entertainment and even a free guided tour entitled "Behind the scenes at the racecourse".

Located in front of the Amboise castle, the Shaker has no more to make its reputation with the Tourangeaux and Amboisiens... It has a magnificent panorama of the Loire Valley for a relaxing break. In summer, with its vast terrace, its cocktail menu and its warm atmosphere, it will seduce you to prolong the evening. Its specialty: more than 100 different cocktails, alcoholic or not. But also planks, quality tapas and home-made ice creams. Taken over in 2022 by Mélanie and Arnaud, it is the ideal place to spend a pleasant moment with family or friends.

In a quiet street, here is a tea room where the nice decoration is just like what you find in your plate: light and dynamic. Brunch et Goût Thé is indeed true to its name: you can come at any time to fill up and succumb to the sin of gluttony without malice. Between the soups, the pies and the cakes, the teas, the hot chocolate and the various pastries, one does not know any more where to give of the head! We stop there for breakfast, lunch, a coffee break or a snack that makes us fall back into childhood... or to have a brunch on Sunday from time to time. You've got it: here, there are delicacies for every hunger and every desire.

Ideally located a stone's throw from the train station, this multiplex is also halfway between its big brother, the Deux-Lions, and the Studio art house cinema. The general public and the more confidential, V.O. and V.F. films are mixed together every week. There are regular special cycles (Disney classics, Harry Potter saga, Horror night...). As for comfort, everything is there: air conditioning, Dolby digital sound, digital image, PMR access, 3D, and a large choice of sweets for the greedy! For those who have foresight: you can reserve your seat online. Smart tip: ask at the reception desk for free parking in the Vinci parking lot.
