Fun and entertainment The United States Of America

Here, each room is inspired by a theme from the newspaper and the walls are covered with giant articles and editorials. In the Variety Room there is an article with the headline "Lennon in Love". In the sports hall, in addition to articles about the players, there are about ten televisions broadcasting matches. At the entrance, in the centre of the bar, a huge boat symbolises travel. There's even a wine bar at the back of the room. As you will have understood, it is not a particularly romantic place, but the atmosphere is pleasant.

What's nice about Genna's is its eclectic side: throughout the day, the clientele evolves. Around 6pm, you'll find men in suits just off work, then two hours later students come in to spend the evening or just have a drink before going to the club. The cocktails are top-notch, among the best in town. The bar is very small, but size doesn't matter, considering how many people can sit or stand in front of it. Happy Hour on weekdays from 4:30 to 6:30 pm.

The Great Dane, which brews its own beers, is a popular place whose reputation has spread beyond the borders of Madison. Its pub-brewery is spacious, with a high but festive sound volume. The atmosphere is relaxed, the sofas are made of leather and you really don't want to get out once you've settled in. On the catering side, typical brasserie dishes, such as hamburger and chips, but also grilled salmon plates and salads. Six billiard tables are waiting for you, but on some evenings, you have to be patient: the place is known.

The Ordway Center is one of those landmarks on Rice Park, along with the prestigious Saint Paul Hotel, the Public Library and the Landmark Center. Suffice to say, its location is ideal. The Ordway Center boasts a large hall with nineteen hundred seats, with delightful acoustics, and a three hundred and six-seat theater for more intimate performances. Its varied program includes theater, dance and music groups.

Despite what its name suggests, Cafe Brauer is more of a reception hall, which hosts all kinds of events, than a café. Its Prairie-style architecture is something to behold. It was built in 1911 by Dwight Perkins, who was influenced by the work of the master of the genre, Frank Lloyd Wright. Situated on a small lake, it lends itself to walking and photography, facing the Chicago skyline and the dark mass of the Hancock Center in the distance. The outdoor "biergarten" is surrounded by flowers, shaded by tall trees.

We won't lie to you, Butch is the last place where party people meet after all the other bars close. An atmosphere that is frankly degraded, where everyone can breathe the alcohol vapours that emanate from their neighbour. An atmosphere a little late in the century, but a typical address. At least you can say you tested the real American dive bar! The establishment also offers a fairly complete menu, which allows you to settle down before having another small beer. A real local address.

As its name indicates, House of Beers specialises in beer. There are dozens of kinds of beer in there; The right bar, with its beer pump arms, serves only beer. If you want other alcohols, a whisky "on the rocks" for example, you have to go to the left bar. When you sit in the room, you're surrounded by two bars, and it's as hard to choose between Guinness and scotch than to stay sober.

Like any good Irish pub, the Finn McCool's is dark and attractive. It is used to drink (beer and spirits) and to eat (large salads and sandwiches) every day of the week, in the bar or on one of the top round tables. When you enter Finn McCool's, you quickly realize that something is too much. But what? Oh yeah, maybe it's the eleven TV screens and the two giant screens set around the corner. It's sure that if you want to relax your eyes, it's better to avoid. On the other hand, football days are festival!

Rock Bottom Brewery proves that there is not only Budweiser in the United States. Here, we sit down at the bar to taste the multitude of brewed beers offered by the establishment. In summer, you can sip your pint in the "biergarten" on the roof with a view of the skyscrapers. This is where managers and employees meet after the offices close. You can also eat on the spot, but the food is quite ordinary. We'll mainly order food so that we have something in our stomachs other than beer!

Most of their addresses have a wireless connection system. Two addresses: at the crossing of Lake Street and LaSalle Street and at the Clark and Madison crossing in the Loop. Go to www.starbucks.com to find other places of connection. Starbucks is not the place to advise as local coffee because there are all over the planet! The connection is free for one hour if you eat.

You wonder about the meaning of "dive in bar"? What's being used is the typical example: a real bistro/coffee café, popular, not frankly class and rather warm. Here, it's simple, we drink draught beer and we accompany her pint of a basket of chicken wings (wings), it's fat, good and downright authentic.

In the heart of Las Vegas, the 3,000^m2 Downtown Cocktail Room and Mike Morey's Sip'n'Tip combine an intimate cocktail lounge and a "speak-up", halfway between the upscale lounge ambience and the clandestine, unserious atmosphere of New York City. The menu features a wide range of original and classic spirits, beers, wines and cocktails. Mike Morey's Sip'n'Tip has a more intimate atmosphere, with only thirty seats available. The establishment also offers a wide selection of drinks.

Baby Birds Café is far, far away from the Strip. But it's a great place to get away from the hustle and bustle of the casinos. Located on the edge of The Lakes, on the west side of town, this establishment offers brunch, drinks and a few cakes. The staff are very attentive, and after enjoying a pastry, you'll be able to catch a glimpse of some beautiful lakeside homes. To the south, there's a small park (Lake Sahara South Parc) where you can take a short break.

Two large brick walls and a high wooden ceiling, where a fan turns, identify this wide space. You'll love yourself in one of the leather chairs to enjoy the break and coffee, or even a pastry. The atmosphere is relaxed, with gentle jazzie music, which invites to a part of chess or a Zen reading.

This veritable Ali Baba tavern has a thousand treasures. We could spend hours contemplating unpleasant objects hanging on walls and ceiling. If you have a small creux, you'll have to dare to enter the belly of a big cardboard bear. In the evening, a few nostalgic nostalgic of the legendary Easy Rider in this pub used to be used as a backdrop to the first scenes of the film.

More lounge than bar; We appreciate the different atmospheres created in the small rooms. Quite young.

In front of the entrance, sexy ladies, moulded in their finest dresses and hommes men. The music is nice.

Small coffee where you will find fresh and fresh drinks. Free internet access.

It's the trendy place to get a drink.

Saloon would be the oldest bar in San Francisco (1861). Nothing has changed for decades: the population is still predominantly male, beers are still drunk at the counter and folk and country bands play there every night. And every Monday it's the resident band The Bachelors that welcomes you, a most enjoyable blues-rockabilly ensemble! We love the picturesque interior and the atmosphere. The owner will be happy to serve you and tell you his best anecdotes.

Opened in 1956 by the Giotta family, Caffe Trieste is a must in North Beach. The coffee is roasted on the spot in the purest Italian tradition, it is certainly one of the best espressos in the city. Jack Kerouac and Allan Ginsberg frequented the place in the 60s and it was here that Francis Ford Coppola wrote the script for the movie The Godfather. San Franciscans take Trieste by storm day and night, so try to sit among them to share the Italian atmosphere of the neighborhood!

The term speakeasy, very popular in New York during the 1930s and again today, takes on its full meaning here. Clandestine tripot under prohibition, the L.I.C. (for Long Island City) reopened in 2009 after... 50 years of closure! Unpretentious, this vast bar, which looks like an Irish pub, houses a peaceful interior patio. A few concerts are organised, usually on Sundays in summer and Thursday evenings (see the programme on the website). A good address after a visit to the PS1 and a dinner on Vernon Boulevard.

Active since 1861, this academy, located in a superb Fine Arts building in Downtown Brooklyn, is an institution, one of the most beloved and electric in New York.

There are usually between 5 and 7 concerts per week, check the website for the program.

Jewish Cultural Centre. Here are the concerts of American singers. The Y'S Chamber Symphony, created in 1977, has carved the reputation of being one of the best formations in Manhattan. The 92 nd Street Y is the prototype (New York version) of these culture houses, dreamed of by André Malraux. The largest American and foreign writers, poets, and artists come here to read and present their works in progress - since opening, in 1939. In the magnificent theatre hall, we saw and heard T.-S. Eliot, Pablo Neruda, Dylan Thomas, Allen Ginsberg, John Ashbery, Samuel Bellow, Anthony Burgess, Nadine Gordimer, Gunther Grass, Eugene Ionesco, Mario Vargas Llosa, Kenneth Koch, Doris Lessing, Norman He, Octavio Paz, Amos Oz, William Styron…

It is considered one of the best dance companies in the world. At the end of the year, it is here that you can witness the magic of The Nutcracker.

A very small flagship club on the New York jazz scene, on the upper Upper West Side. The years of success have not affected the conviviality of the premises. Theme evenings: Sundays are Latin jazz, Tuesdays are organ jazz and Wednesdays are funk. It is from the very small stage at the back of the narrow hall that glorious quadras and quinquas come to delight the public every weekend. New York is live! The place is so popular that reservations are highly recommended, regardless of the days of the week.

The best international artists have been meeting at the Iridium since 1994, in a very classy and friendly atmosphere, recommended by the New York Times and the New York Magazine. The legendary Les Paul (inventor of the electric guitar and an excellent jazz guitar player) played there every Monday evening until his death in August 2009 at the age of 94. Two concerts are organized every day (except Monday), at 8pm and 10pm. The room, located in the basement, is not very large, which further reinforces the feeling of exclusivity that can be felt.

It's not Charlie Parker's legendary Birdland, but still a good place to hear upscale jazz in the heart of Times Square. Its red dimmed atmosphere transports you to another world, where haunting jazzy notes float. Although it is not the most famous jazz club among tourists (which is perhaps an advantage), it is nevertheless advisable to book in advance. Several sets each night (at 7pm and 9:30pm on the first floor, and at 8:30pm in the basement).

A concert hall opened in 2007, with very eclectic programming.

The acoustics are first-rate and the viewing angles generous. Saved from demolition in the late 1980s, the club has undergone several renovations over the years (most recently in 2019), but still retains its ballroom atmosphere.

This place is a real little icon of the Bowery neighborhood. Built just before the 1929 crisis, the site remained unoccupied until the Second World War when it was transformed into a store. But business is bad, trade is not working and it is finally converted much later into a concert hall. In 1997, opens what is still considered one of the most recognized establishments in Bowery today. Quality concerts are given every evening in this beautiful two-storey hall.

The Nublu is a real stroke of heart. Every evening we play live music in an extraordinary neighbourhood atmosphere. Here, no one is boycotting his pleasure and if you like to dance, you will not do half. The artists invited are always excellent, in short the selection is great. The Nublu even has its own label, Nublu Records. A small garden, located at the bottom of the small club, is open until.
