Fun and entertainment Toulouse

Bar, restaurant, show, the Grand Bandstand is a new address that comes out the great game of seduction! Beware! The place is splendid, with baroque inspiration; in shades of grey, pink, orange, on the Louis XV XV chairs you will succumb to the atmosphere of the places, just before being caught by the performances of the artists on stage. A delicious atmosphere of a piano bar every evening, music or dance shows on Fridays and Saturdays; jazz, wander through Nova… you only have to enjoy. Patrick Prieur, the master of the places thought for you the perfect formula… from dinner in love, intimate evenings, meals among friends… we recognize his professionalism. Even if the consumption is increased on the evenings of show, the increase is nothing compared to the pleasure and quality of the selected artists. At the end of the day, you will be able to take a look at the. A new extra-ordinary place!

Plume et Café opened its doors on rue du Taur, inspired by Elodie's dream of opening a literary café. Surrounded by shelves containing some seven hundred novels, you can sit down for a snack, either in the cosy corner of the room, or on the terrace, surrounded by the frenzy of students and passers-by. Flip through the pages on the spot, or buy a second-hand book at a bargain price, to take the time to read it back home. A coworking space, occasional events twice a month (writing workshop, weaving or embroidery, cosmetics preparation...), so many moments of sharing in a lovingly planted space.

In the St Cyprien district, on the lively Place de l'Estrapade, the Cacahuète bar is a spot to discover if you haven't already done so. This bar offers you as many opportunities as the days of the week in your agenda. It's hard to choose between a breakfast on the terrace on sunny days, a beer with friends on relaxing afternoons, a concert evening on Thursday night, a blind test on Saturday, a dj set on funny sundays. The terribly friendly team does not lack ideas to liven up your life with an eclectic musical selection (jazz, afro-latino, soul, rock...) and ensure a friendly atmosphere around local beers, selected wines, delicious cocktails... Top.

Between Place Saint-Pierre and Place de la Daurade, Les Tricheurs have brought together over five hundred different games. With so much to choose from, there's sure to be something for everyone, whether you're a team player or a duo, whether you prefer reflection to speed, whether you want to exercise your dexterity rather than your management skills... The principle: one drink per hour per player gives access to all the games. Above all, you benefit from the explanations and good advice that go with them: smart, for those who don't feel like wasting thirty-five minutes reading an instruction manual! So as not to let the call of the stomach spoil your game, the house offers a variety of regressive nibbles: sausage boards, spreads, nachos and even small bowls of candy! Special evenings are regularly organized: tournaments, of course, but also quizzes and musical blind-tests.

If you want to sing a song, go to Chorus! This concert hall, located in Croix-de-Pierre, welcomes you around tapas boards in a very friendly and unpretentious atmosphere. Here, we welcome you at happy hour and the program follows, between young emerging talent or confirmed artist, open stage, then it's up to you to take the microphone (on Wednesdays). You choose your song and off you go! The long room, in a beautiful red color, is equipped with comfortable benches and the sound is great.

Located in the heart of the Cartoucherie eco-district, Arcane is a modern coffee shop with a contemporary industrial style, combining concrete and natural materials such as wood. The bright, spacious room lets you enjoy your coffee while working in peace. Alternatively, you can sample one of the daily dishes/desserts and choose your own gourmet moment, as the menu is advertised (including on the Internet) along with the week's menu. Very practical and, above all, very smart. A young, dynamic team welcomes you with a smile. It's even better when you work in such a beautiful place... The quality is top-notch and the portions are adequate.

In 2010, the Fridge became… At home! Luigi one of the cadors of the nights Toulouse, founder of the Cube has resumed and transformed the Fridge… New plant and new team for this disco located in the city centre and dedicated to rock in all its periods and dimensions! Red and black colours for an intimate but adjustable interior, it is now one of the most important of the city! To discover without delay for those who do not yet know him… The rooms are small, so attention to come early in the night!

Recently opened in the Montaudran district, at the foot of the "piste des Géants", The Beer Social Club is successfully bringing life to the area around the "Halle des Machines". Mickael, a young man from the Ariège and a former rugby player, conceived the place as a convivial space to meet up with friends, colleagues or family. Conviviality in a warm, contemporary decor. This beer bar, but not only, offers twelve draught beers, home-made juices and sodas from Occitanie, wine and pretty boards to share. Festive evenings, concerts, quizzes, tasting workshops, beer & food workshops, events with brewers... What a program! And what a program!

Do beautiful family stories appeal to you? The Three Sisters is sure to delight you. Once upon a time, Claire, Albane and Maud were fed up with their boring jobs. Seduced by the beautiful placette Ste-Scarbes, they threw themselves wholeheartedly into the adventure of this tea salon, the aptly named Trois soeurs. It's in the timelessly charming St-Etienne district that they welcome you for your morning coffee, lunch break or afternoon snack. The room is small, the tables tightly packed, voices buzzing around you, it can be noisy at times, but the welcome is smiling, the plates generous and the family spirit... the key to their success.

Come and party at ArtyBar! A club that has quickly joined the closed circle of trendy downtown nightclubs opening in the Jean-Jaurès district, the nerve center of Toulouse nightlife.

The atmosphere heats up around the DJ-led music program. It varies from house to RnB, for an electric atmosphere.

Sol y sombra! Sun or shade, that's the question aficionados in southern Spain ask themselves as they take to the arena. Here in Toulouse, opposite the Canal du Midi, there are no toros, just the festive spirit of Andalusian férias. It's all there! The azulejos, the pinned posters, the color of the walls, the bar and the raciones. You'll settle in with good company in a setting that invites you to travel, and you won't leave until nightfall, after a cerveza or sangria! Tapas, paella, pata negra or bellota ham, generous tortillas... iberian specialties and para bailar shows: flamenco, tango, gypsy jazz... There's never a dull moment!

Historically, this niche under the stairs of the Daurade was home to... drowned people recovered from the Garonne! The old morgue is now a bar, the Pêcheurs de Sable, named after the men who used to collect sand from the river bed to build Toulouse. A beautiful menu highlights the local products. As for drinks, don't miss the basil wine! In the evening, with garlands of lights and musicians, it's a guinguette moment with an unforgettable view on the Grave illuminated and the sun setting the city on fire.

Twenty-five years already that Toulousan night owls have been pushing open the door of this cosy bar.

In short, a decor that makes you feel right at home! To drink: creative, carefully-crafted, seasonal cocktails and a fine selection of natural wines to discover. To eat: tapas with a focus on quality. On the terrace, between the red ochre façade and the planted window boxes, there's a whiff of vacation...

100% Occitan, supported by the Fasèm de Bruch association, this cultural café revisits tapas in Occitan style. Cheeses, sausages, vegetables and fruit come from short, local circuits, preferably labelled organic and ethical. For example, Topina works with the collective Oc per l'occitan, a group of producers concerned with maintaining the cultural specificity of their products. But at Topina, culture is not limited to the plate! Many activities around the Occitan language are organized: shows, conferences, aperitifs, concerts or even the broadcasting of rugby matches... An address to remember to experience Occitan culture in a festive setting.

Between Arnaud-Bernard and the Canal du Midi, Blastodice is part of a rising trend in the pink city: game bars.

You'll also find a wide range of strategy, card and dice games, as well as wargames (Warhammer 40,000, Bolt Action, Infinity, War Machine...) carefully prepared by the owners! Of course, as Blastodice is first and foremost a bar, you can accompany your game with a beer, soda, cocktail or coffee, and nibble on a few tapas at smart prices.

Le Taquin is the place for jazz lovers! But beyond this music, the hall is also widely open to current music. Between 3 and 5 concerts per week, from Wednesday to Sunday, to liven up your evening. Many talented artists are on the bill: Freddy Taquine, Red Cardell, the Nicolas Gardel Quartet... The Taquin also welcomes visual artists, photographers to exhibit and offers you to have a bite to eat with a drink (3 new dishes every week and a vegetarian option...).

Different evenings are organized with DJs on the decks. If you're feeling blue or depressed, you'll soon be pressed, infused, mixed and... liquidated!

A staple of Toulouse parties, the Fat Cat is a benchmark. Step through the door and you've just stepped back into the 20s. In this sophisticated, jazzy bar, cocktails are not taken lightly.

Enigma Escape is a set of six escape scenarios spread over two sites, one near the train station, the other a little further from downtown.

It's all happening at Les Petits Crus restaurant in the Carmes district, with Wine Gaming: a fun way for several people to enjoy an introductory wine tasting session. The aim is to free a bottle of wine. To achieve this, the game involves solving riddles and tasting 15 different wines, in the cosy atmosphere of Toulouse's brick cellar, and with moderation, except for the effort!

Toulousans are familiar with this address, which has been home to a number of discotheques. As its name suggests, Club Saint-Germain is a departure from the usual dance factories, offering a more relaxed atmosphere. It's the place to be for young Toulousans who like to dress up to dance until dawn, but also to sip a cocktail in peace and quiet, as the venue has two rooms open until the wee hours. This "house for insomniacs", as the club calls itself, offers a varied program ranging from Eighties to rock, but without electro. For a clientele that appreciates chic yet relaxed nightclubs.

Attention, event! It's happening at the Downtown Factory, one of the pink city's trendiest nightclubs! Behind a very smart-looking facade lies an establishment that shakes things up. Over 600^m2, three places in one. First, a restaurant that serves the hungry until 2am. Then there's a well-stocked bar, particularly with its cocktail menu: twenty-five options, including twenty creations! Le Petit Futé tested the Basil Smach and has some news for you!

When this theatre was created in 1964, its mission was to host the Centre Dramatique National du Sud-Ouest. Quickly taken over by the Toulouse City Hall, it has known many adventures for several decades. Since 2016, the management has been in the hands of Sébastien Bournac, director of the Tabula Rasa company. Its programming is intended to be multidisciplinary, combining the great classics of the repertoire revisited and contemporary writings. In parallel, the Sorano supports the projects of artists in residence and associated companies. On stage, theatre of course, but also dance, singing or even circus. Great moments of emotion in perspective!

An escape game and two addresses where the five rooms are located. Professor Brown is in danger, can you save him from himself? Another room, a change of scenery. Your car has broken down in the middle of the night in a sinister forest, and your phone is not receiving any signal. You head to a seemingly abandoned house... and find yourself trapped inside! For these rooms, you can customize the level. For thrill seekers, you'll choose "Help" in the second address.

In Toulouse, as elsewhere, escape game rooms are becoming increasingly popular! Each one shows a great creativity which allows the fans to vary the experiences in unexpected atmospheres: Scotland Yard investigation, zombie hunt, space station, vaporist adventure... The choice is vast! Many of these rooms have joined forces to offer a great tournament, the TEGT! With a team of three to five players, you play during the tournament period in at least four of the participating rooms, in any order you wish. The three teams who have successfully completed their rooms in the shortest time win the coconut (vouchers). It's your turn to play!

The Folles Saisons Cultural café organizes exhibitions of artists (painters, sculptors, photographers…), concerts of the classics, DJ evenings, conferences, debates and various workshops! The hotel has a nice restaurant with a shady garden and terrace under the trees. And even if the place is intended for women, men are very welcome!

The variety of its programming makes it a scene in full creative ebullience. You'll appreciate the quality of the acoustics, which have won the loyalty of an increasingly discerning audience. The 600-seat venue is an attractive alternative to more intimate music bars and XXL halls with thousands of people.

Café Ginette is a party place. Underneath its post-war bistro air, the place is attractive and charming, with its large room and wood-burning stove, Formica tables and schoolboy chairs, tree-lined courtyard and sunny terrace. Concerts, a good beer and a bite to eat... that's all it took to make Ginette the trendy bar of Toulouse's suburbs. Located just beyond the Canal du Midi, in the ever-changing Minimes district, it serves mackerel, pork belly and rice pudding.

An abandoned cemetery? A gloomy prison? A dilapidated distillery? One question springs to mind: where have we been? Answer: at Zapata! Since late 2018, this crazy, original club has been livening up Toulouse nights. But don't arrive after midnight, or you'll be denied access! Because from that hour onwards, the bar becomes a showroom with the most outlandish themed shows: Harry Potter, Matrix, Back to the Future, Gatsby the Magnificent, Indiana Jones, Moulin Rouge... Your orders arrive by golf cart, your bottles by zip line, and... Hush! Let's keep some of the mystery to ourselves. Go and see for yourself, you'll be surprised!

The La Belle Brune team loves to play with words and tastes. Especially in the choice of specialty coffees prepared in a variety of ways: latte frappé, cold brew, cappuccino, americano, filter...

For sustenance: the homemade bun with scrambled eggs and cow's tomme or the lunch bowl for savoury dishes; granola, pancakes, cookies and rolled brioche for sweet treats. The approach is based on local production, but with a commitment to quality. It's all happening at Les Carmes!

Coffee lovers, it's time to stop at Virgule to enjoy a specialty coffee. What the hell is this?

Here, the vegan attitude is emphasized: no cow's milk in the milkshakes or chai teas. The cakes change according to the mood of Charles, the happy owner of the place! Throughout the day, you can treat yourself to a sweet and savoury break, on the spot or to take away. Don't forget to bring your cups because the approach is also eco-friendly!

Ma maison sera un village " wrote Claude Nougaro (1929-2004)...

In the Saint-Etienne district, a fresh and colorful address, with wood here and there and industrial furniture. Ash is open for lunch and snacks. The menu is renewed daily.

The Montebello, made entirely with pistachios and a few raspberries... Saturday is brunch!

It's an address that some regulars would like to keep to themselves, like a secret spot where you can take refuge when you're tired of the hustle and bustle of the city. Tea or coffee? The choice is yours, with a dozen proposals in each category. Or how about a hot chocolate? Voluptuous, generous, comforting when the first chill sets in. If you're in the mood for freshness, you can also opt for granités. Pastries? Of course you can! And if you're an early riser, you can even opt for an authentic English breakfast . A friendly atmosphere, a refined but cosy setting, authenticity, a pleasant welcome - this coffee shop is much appreciated.

In the Gabriel-Péri district, the Mecanique des Fluides is a musical and festive bar that offers drinks, food and music! It changed hands a year ago, but keeps the recipe that has proven its worth. So we're keeping the good habits! On the fluid side, special beers, but also shooters, homemade arranged rum, a wine list... On the solid side, nibbles to accompany your drinks. And what about sound? A beautiful diversity in favour of local artists, to get you to know them. Involvement in the local cultural life does not stop with music, as exhibitions and shows are also on the agenda.

Perfect for a fun, sporty birthday party!
