The best bars and cafés Toulouse

If it's a curiosity in Toulouse bar, it's the Filochard! The rime would please our poets of life who animate this place since… for so long they have made friends, and many! Friends of friends of our friends join here, at the end of Pont Neuf, to party to the sound of songs. The bar becomes too fast to welcome its tribe, so it extends wide every night in front of the entrance, towards the Garonne! Humor and mussel, small concerts, wine of the country, country bread, this is the recipe for this incredible place. Le Chouchen, breed Breton - a little traitored but good! - help untie languages under the stars sky. Try evenings in concert just to see, before becoming addicted!

Place du Capitole, the Florida has been in existence since 1874. The brasserie is open 24 hours a day, and boasts a beautiful terrace with a breathtaking view of the town hall and square. On the menu are the great brasserie classics, but with a regional focus: tartare, duck confit burger, cassoulet, confit lamb mouse, cep and truffle ravioli... Upstairs, a more confidential club lounge takes you away from the hustle and bustle of the Cap: it's the Roof! This is the place to spend a hushed evening. But why? Because the atmosphere is reminiscent of clubs across the Channel with a French twist!

45 years and still going strong! Tonton has been the aperitif companion for hard-drinking parties since 1979! Françoise, or Mamie to her fans, awaits you in this "temple" of pastis and festivities, on Place Saint-Pierre, renowned for being the crossroads for untouchable party-goers after dark. Born out of a local bar founded in 1958 by uncle Léon Toulet, the place owes its fame, as its name suggests, to the pastis that reigns supreme here: you can order it just like the beer... by the linear metre! To find it, you can't miss it: the bar is yellow... pastis! The decor is sunny too! Savvy tip: party hard, but take the metro or walk home...

In the pleasant Rue des Tourneurs, L'Autre salon de thé revives the tradition of the salons of yesteryear. Cosy decor, porcelain tableware and delicious pastries! Everything is homemade with fresh, carefully selected ingredients to spoil you: Saint-Honoré, cheesecake, banoffee, cream puffs, banana bread, accompanied by a selection of teas to die for. The address has been renowned for years, without changing the quality of its recipes or its brunch. Come for lunch or a snack, indoors or on the terrace in fine weather.

You've probably already stumbled on this small beer bar/bar located in rue de la Colombette, not far from Saint Aubin church. He underwent a complete breakthrough when his new owner arrived a few five years ago and got black from walls to ceiling. But do you misunderstand! The atmosphere is nothing dark, since the Shiny Shiny anime toulouse evenings, thanks to a trendy musical atmosphere, quality beer in quantity, as well as plates to be tasted not far from zinc… At noon and early evening you will be éclairerez with the Shiny Shiny first rays: in choice and on slate, cheerful aperitif and/or traditional brasserie menu: mustard andouillette, tartar and its worcestershire sauce or whole magret, south-West side served with wine from country or Chile… But it is only then that the Shiny Shiny really animates, coming to the night in Toulouse: You will taste one of the dozens of beers selected for you, from Faro or the Delirium Thinnest to the Kriek by the Blanche des Neiges, unless you prefer a sangria, a T-Punch or a Mojito served. You can then nibble some tapas served on platter: smoked ham, patatas bravas or foie gras… Ask the boss, he will advise you!

A little outside the city center, between the Palais de Justice and the Pont St-Michel, a sobritish pub opens its doors to you. At the Black Lion, everything is done so that you can sip your pint in a typical British atmosphere. Two rooms decorated in a total tripot look. Wood panelling, stools, benches and old shoes on the walls! Entertainment: match broadcasts, darts competitions, quizzes and blind tests on Sundays from 8pm, and numerous concerts. And of course, there's lunch and brunch too! There's no shortage of pancakes, fried eggs, baked beans, tomatoes... A large terrace lets you enjoy the mild Toulouse evenings. What else?

At the Basque Bar, life is happy, especially at Happy Hour! Room, terrace and indoor garden never run out of space even when the snow softens the pink of the pink city. If you are looking for an address to experience the excitement of rugby matches in an atmosphere of madness, come here on the days of broadcasting. A giant screen awaits you in a dedicated room or on the facade with brick arches, on days of international cup competitions! On holiday evenings, we dance, we toast to the sound of the latest hits. The average age is then rather young and unbridled but you can enjoy the Basque Bar during the day or at lunchtime. Let's tell ourselves that!

The Morning Bar delights all the moments of a busy city day… From the opening, sit on the terrace for a very tight black and watch the news of the day on "ducks" available… In the afternoon, sip a fresh fruit juice for the break, before enjoying at the counter a cooked wine or a bière beer… This is one of the most pleasant terraces in Toulouse, very well located close to the many restaurants adjoining the square of the Carmelites and the rue des Filatiers… A quick service, friendly reception for this coffee as you love… All you have to do is find a table!

The Carbet d 'Oc is a very lively tapas bar located in the lively Carmes district. A place where you can enjoy a drink for the aperitif with a few terraces on the terrace before dinner on the spot or in a restaurant nearby, and where you will be happy to return at the end of the evening to make the world… We also enjoy the evenings of the Carbet d 'Oc, to listen to Djs in madness! A nice address for festivities.

La Biérothèque has a very big plan: over three hundred beer references, eleven taps and a room for up to one hundred and sixty people. Alongside brown and blond beers, wines and spirits, you can look forward to an evening of discovery and tasting. And don't worry, you can enjoy the experience without counting the cost: the metro's not far away! Try a blond with the evocative name Méfons-nous des escargots, or opt for the more rustic Une queue de charrue ambrée. You'll leave delighted by the good atmosphere here, with, as a bonus, a range of new expressions that promise to liven up your next evening!

Here is a perfect café to work and where you can recharge your batteries! Everything has been designed so that you can relax, or work without being stressed, or study alone or with others sitting on the mezzanine, especially since Wifi is free. And the electric plugs are everywhere. If you're not into coffee, the menu also offers juices, teas, hot chocolates or milkshakes as well as a wide choice of sandwiches or salads, pastries, homemade cakes... You'll be pumped up for work!

The Animae Bar is animated boulevard in the evening from Thursday to Saturday from 21 pm. The atmosphere is guaranteed in this cosy bar, which regularly hosts players Djs. You can eat here some tapas, and spend a good evening among friends. It is also possible to organize private student evenings here… Here the evenings join for your great pleasure!

You don't need to make a round trip to Dublin to experience an Irish evening: just walk through the door of the O'Briens pub. The warm, relaxed atmosphere is spread over three levels. Each floor has its own intimate space, decorated to suit. On the first floor, there's a long counter, because there will be lots of you. On the second floor, banquettes and wood, you order at the bar and the service is Irish-style - you're the one on the move! On the second floor, you'll find a cosy lounge area with sofas, carpet and darts, of course, and plenty of green for a touch of color. Like any real pub, there's drinking, games, a mix of ages and great music!

Very popular with students, the Quartier Latin, held by Thierry, is to know above all for its atmosphere. The place is small and the atmosphere always overheated for the pleasure of all the guests who are there many! From 19 p. m., hot and cold relaxation are the pleasure of all. Home and affordable prices, it would be wrong to get away from it! The aperitif gives the start of large evenings, organized twice a month around a specific theme: hidden evening, champagne evening… It is always an excellent excuse to spend a good evening, in excellent company!

Neighborhood pub, pub oh how animated! Moving away from hypercentre is a often infallible recipe recipe; and why? Because knowing the address makes you a familiar, faithful, one of those who definitely put the atmosphere! With its two air-conditioned rooms, its friendly team, tasteful decoration, red benches, English green Walls, a cosy atmosphere, O Faubourg is a place for Relaxation. The pub offers more than beers on the map… tasting! Eclectic music, large screen TV of 107 cm for the retransmission of sports events or distribution of clips, the place has everything to seduce you… In brief, a framework and a convivial atmosphere, what more?

Close to the Canal du Midi, easy to reach in the evening, Art Club is a beautiful Toulouse winery, a bar, a trendy piano bar, a pub and a discotheque. We discuss it calmly, but we can also celebrate it until the end of the night. Conviviality and relaxed atmosphere prevail in the nights of madness of youth! The more than 1980 years are in this beautiful place in the week to forget the everyday worries of everyday life, the weekend to enjoy a varied musical atmosphere, a very atmosphere. What about happiness!

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.

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.

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.

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. Comfortable armchairs around small tables in the sobritish lounge upstairs, a large sofa facing the beautiful fireplace that made the place famous on the first floor, subdued lighting, soulful, groovy music, brick walls, floral murals... 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 Esquirol and Les Carmes, smart people who like to combine the pleasure of a beer with that of discovery are in for a treat at Le Bièrographe! The Bièrographe offers a wide range of local, Belgian and northern beers on draught, regularly renewed to allow you to try out the team's new discoveries, along with a number of bottled beers. All are handcrafted, straight from independent producers! Suffice it to say, you're in the home of beer fanatics! The spirit of the place is to celebrate with local products, and it's not just about hops: you can also sip artisanal wines and juices, accompanied by carefully selected charcuterie and other regional delights. Special evenings are organized for you to meet the brewers who treat you, and concerts are also scheduled. So, are you coming for a foam party?

The Monkey Hour has struck. Time to sip your favorite cocktail. Which will it be? The Mysterious Milk Punch or Marius est marié? If you're not familiar with it, let Nicolas guide you, as he never tires of shaking his shaker behind the counter... or carving ice cubes into original shapes. You'll love the cheerful atmosphere, the colorful decor and the cool little terrace. If you're a people person, you won't be disappointed! The program is both eclectic and accessible. 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. The house regularly competes for the best cocktail award with some rather original recipes. How about a vodka infused with Japanese herbs served in an oyster shell? Wednesday evenings are piano-bar evenings. Cozy armchairs, delicious cocktails, pleasant company and music in the air: Fat is bath!

Mercure Saint-Georges revives the tradition of hotel bars. The Mahogany Club is open to all. At the counter, Mady and her shakers prepare no fewer than thirty cocktails to order, including many exclusive creations. Try L'art Madygnac: armagnac, apricot liqueur, peach juice and milk foam. Something new and 100% local. Or the more exotic Chili Litchee Martini: vodka, soho, Laotian chili, litchee purée! The clever icing on the cocktail cake: when the weather's nice, you can enjoy it on the terrace beside a swim lane!

The Biergarten evokes those emblematic places of popular Germany, those vast outdoor spaces where people sit down at a big table to gulp down beer and comforting solids. The spirit is one of simplicity, conviviality and celebration. So it's in an establishment with a beautiful outdoor space that this "beer garden" awaits you. With its rustic decor, live entertainment, a choice of nearly 100 beers and charcuterie straight from Munich, it's the perfect place to spend a warm evening. Wondering what the lockers at the entrance are for? They contain the personalized mugs of our most loyal customers! Will you be one of them?

Maître Renard or the success of a wine bar that makes you happy! Promise kept for this establishment installed in our habits for warm and greedy evenings. The place is very small, animated by a mural paying homage to the Fables of La Fontaine, we feel good there and we share easily with the neighbors of table or counter. Conviviality and tasting moments are combined here to perfection. More than 150 references of French and Spanish wines, red, rosé, white, bubbly, preferably from short circuit. And to accompany your glass, plates worked around local products, that we propose to serve you even late. Perfect!

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!

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.

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... The wide choice of teas will also satisfy tea lovers. 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? This is a top-of-the-range, rather top-of-the-range coffee whose traceability, quality requirements and fair production make it a remarkable product... so you might as well take the time to appreciate it! 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!

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. Desserts are a little less common than in other tea rooms. Revisited, often garnished with fantasy and very much influenced by the "Strawberry Shortcake" generation! Like Ash's Chacha, a charlotte (sic!) with madeleines and strawberries as garnish. The Napolitain with its vanilla-chocolate stripes. The Montebello, made entirely with pistachios and a few raspberries... Saturday is brunch!

Perched on the top floor of the Midica store, Gigi Land is a nice, unexpected place. Divided into successive small spaces, some are convivial, others more cosy. The overall atmosphere is quite girly, cute and cheerful. During the day, it's a tea room with appetizing pastries. At lunchtime, homemade, seasonal and organic preparations are mixed and matched according to your inspiration. You can also enjoy breakfast or brunch here. A flower-filled roof-top full of charm, protected from the hustle and bustle of the city.

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.

Carefully selected, pampered, roasted just right, then savored with delectation. This is the journey of Kawa, the psychotropic and stimulating energizing beverage... that you'll enjoy at Cerise. Each bean is roasted on the premises, and then passed through the percolator once ground - only 100% Arabica local coffees. Thanks to Valentin and his team for opening the doors every morning in a warm and welcoming setting overlooking the Garonne River and Pont-Neuf. Smart tip: brunch isn't just on Sundays!
