Fun and entertainment Nancy

Downstairs, in the large room bathed in light, it is cosy red and light wood. Upstairs, it's muffled with bronze, dark greens, shiny black and patinated panelling. And arched windows plunging directly onto the cobblestones of the Place Stanislas. This refined setting invites us to enjoy delicious moments of serenity and pleasure, through the gourmet cuisine of chef Cyril Monachon or the bar of Tonino Laurent, always ready to help you discover the latest trends. The service is always smiling and pleasant, whether you come for a business meeting or to enjoy a simple coffee. As you can see, this place is deliciously addictive!

Since 2011, Petter Jacobsson has taken over the direction of the company to offer classical pieces and creations.

At Caméo, the selection varies between auteur and mainstream films; the trend is to discover original films.

Seen from the outside, since the surrounding night, this large glass-panelled bar has a look at the softness of these lights, with beams of orange and blue competing in the rainbow. Inside, the same softness emerges and we are moving. Warm mahogany hues, brilliant chrome and mirror, comfortable leather invite us to relax. The cocktails are warm, the many whiskies, the superb rums and the service equal to those qualifiers. Evenings are organized, classic such as Beaujolais or Daring when it comes to presenting fine linen linen and sex-toys from their partner "More if affinity". The atmosphere is monte, the fabrics are émoustillent and the eyes are clouds with dreams. This is how we love this beautiful establishment, when it gives us surprises to make us sing douce night.

Close to the Place Stanislas and near the Fine Arts Museum, we discover this den dedicated to the lemon. Unmissable because of its mint-colored front. Anaïs, the owner, concocts here her own teas that cannot be found anywhere else. To accompany and perfect the whole, you can taste a lemon speciality. Also, each pastry, ice cream, sorbet, confectionery or chocolate ballotin can be taken away and offered. A pure delight! And for the less greedy, savory specialties or just a coffee are also available.

For a fiesta, head to Varadero, where the partygoer is immersed in the Cuban atmosphere. At the bar, you'll find house mojitos, piña coladas and trinadas, not to mention shooters. There's plenty of time to sway to the rhythms of salsa, rumba and samba until 2am. Themed evenings and the transmission of sporting events offer a perfect pretext for a cocktail or a good beer, because just in time, there are often special offers, such as the baron for the price of a half... Good to know! Drink in moderation...

Opened in 2003, the Théâtre de Mon Désert, like the street where it is located, is managed by the City of Nancy. It's a question of being on the lookout for varied programming throughout the year, which allows to support creation and to diffuse local companies. The layout of the room, where the audience can interact with the stage, encourages exchanges with the actors. A restaurant area allows for more informal meetings and exchanges, and the theater is sometimes booked by performing arts companies (professional, semi-professional and amateur).

At the former address of the Majestic and 915 Kaffe, the Ruin Bär kills two birds with one stone: a "ruin", refurbished to become a bar. The stage is set for this festive venue.

Two rooms and two bars are here to get the party started, with a quiet aperitif time in the first half of the evening, followed by an unrestrained second half, with the help of happy hour.

Escape Hunt is a life-size game that can be played with family or colleagues. Here, the aim is to solve enigmas. Locked in a room with a succession of padlocked doors, we collect clues, all in a minimum of time. We slip into Sherlock's shoes for an afternoon. Logic first and foremost and we fight against the dragons of Stanislas Square or we find the wolf of Malzéville. Let's go for a thrill ride! Surprising!

The orchestra of about sixty musicians performs either at the Opera House or during annual concerts. On five Sundays of the year, it gives chamber music aperitif concerts

Little known, this small 300-seat concert hall run by the CROUS (next to a university restaurant) nevertheless hosts quality concerts all year round, at very affordable prices, for a varied audience. In addition to its activity during Nancy Jazz Pulsations, the annual program is also well-stocked, offering a range of musical styles and musical nuggets. Le Hublot can also be rented all year round, except during school vacations. The only negative point, in our opinion, is that parking in the vicinity can be very tricky.

Facing Blue Cedar and Argenté Silver at the Hautdul ', this concert area and shows for current music, electro, reggae, rock, hip-hop, dub, metal, is a place that makes waves of enthusiasm in young people.
