Fun and entertainment Congo Brazzaville

Le Renouveau, located in the heart of the city center, attracts a cosmopolitan clientele who flock here at the end of the day. The establishment boasts a large outdoor terrace, perfect for a drink, and an interesting selection of spirits. You can also nibble on grilled meats and pizzas to accompany an aperitif. The place is also popular for watching soccer matches, in a lively, friendly atmosphere. Later, when the night is in full swing, the atmosphere is warmer. Beware of solicitations.

The bar, located in the basement of the reputable Indian restaurant, got a new look in 2017, with a rather rocky decor. Wide leatherette armchairs, English flags, subdued lighting, Western music... The bar fills up as restaurant guests finish their meal and head downstairs for a delicious cocktail, in an intimate and convivial atmosphere. The atmosphere reaches its peak when the party-goers get up to dance between the low tables. Friendly staff and fast service.

A large bar with its "feet in the water", or rather in the sand, Exoming Beach offers an exceptional setting and a change from other seaside establishments. Prices are lower and the atmosphere more local. On site, you can enjoy African and European specialties, as well as tapas and other special dishes made to order. All concocted with fresh produce. Festive events such as barbecues and DJ nights are regularly organized. A friendly address.

Since 2017, Canal Olympia has been expanding its network of cinemas and theaters on the African continent. Today, the brand is present in 12 countries across the continent, with nearly 20 cinemas, including 3 in Congo (Brazzaville, Pointe-Noire and Oyo). With a capacity of 300 people, the cinemas are state-of-the-art, with modern projection and sound equipment. Nearly 20 screenings a week, with African films featured every month. Concerts are also organized on the open-air stage. Atmosphere guaranteed!

Right next to Brazzaville's railway station, No Stress - or rather Calypso, the name of its nightclub - is a European-style club that's also more blinged-out and elitist. DJ performances and themed evenings are organized regularly, and the place is often packed. The space is rather small, and you soon feel squeezed in like sardines, but you can settle down on comfortable banquettes. From the mezzanine, you can appreciate the club's festive atmosphere. A friendly address for night owls.

This is one of the capital's best-known spots for Brazzavillians and expatriates alike. You can enjoy the best chicken in town, in a warm and friendly atmosphere. The bar is a very large terrace with hastily installed plastic tables and chairs. In the evening, the atmosphere is relaxed and festive. You come with friends, to drink a beer, share a plate of grilled chicken and listen to music. Orders are placed directly at the bar, and service is fast and efficient.

The Tempo Lounge Club, formerly known as the Rialto, is a particularly well-known nightclub in Brazzaville, with a long-standing reputation. There's nothing exceptional about it, except that you can dance the night away to a variety of local and international music. The clientele is cosmopolitan: Congolese notables, expatriates of all ages. The establishment is dynamic and regularly organizes themed evenings, such as karaoke and afterworks. Solicitations are often very strong. A warm and friendly atmosphere.

Thanks to its location and chic decor, La Voile Blanche has quickly made a name for itself in Pointe-Noire. A huge sheltered terrace houses a large bar, several seating areas and a restaurant. The ocean view makes this a particularly pleasant spot. The cocktail menu is interesting, as is that of the restaurant. The latter features seafood products such as grilled lobster, fresh fish and shrimps. The dishes are well prepared and carefully presented. An address worth discovering.

This small wine and spirits bar is located not far from Avenue Charles de Gaulle. A few tables outside, right on the sidewalk, make for a pleasant aperitif with friends. Wide choice of spirits and wines from all over the world. Prices for bottles of wine are far from excessive. Special mention for the homemade cocktails, much appreciated by the locals. The manager is very attentive to her customers. We love chatting with her. The atmosphere is relaxed and warm. Snacks available at affordable prices.

In a renovated villa with a flower-filled garden, this tapas bar, opened in June 2015, has managed to make its mark on Pontegrin life. The dynamic owners liven up the place with numerous events, concerts, dance classes and more. The villa features a large sheltered terrace, two small lounges inside, one with a pool table, and a courtyard with a more intimate setting at the rear. The modern decor is meticulously crafted. The atmosphere here is festive, and it's easy to be tempted by the tempting tapas menu.
