Fun and entertainment Freiburg Im Breisgau

Our favorite cocktail bar is located in the Victoria Best Western Premier Hotel, between the train station and Bertoldsbrunnen Straße. Surprising? Wait until you see the rest. As you enter, you'll instinctively come across the first bar, the Cocktail Bar. Classic decor, hushed atmosphere, not particularly original but comfortable: a good place for a quiet drink with your partner. But the real attraction lies elsewhere. Follow the stairs to the toilets and go down to the second bar: the Smoker Lounge. An immediate change of atmosphere! Here, the decor is much more original and elaborate, the atmosphere more relaxed and less formal. Sink into one of the quilted leather sofas and enjoy friendly, professional service, some of the best cocktails in town, a carefully selected playlist and a melting-pot, intergenerational atmosphere. As you may have guessed, this part of the establishment is a smoking area, and you can buy cigars to complete your journey in this Prohibition-inspired atmosphere. The menu is the same for both bars. Here, the cocktail is king, with a few classics such as mojitos and margaritas, and more original offerings such as the "Sage Old Buck" made with whisky, vanilla syrup, lemon, ginger beer, pear liqueur and sage. Of course, non-alcoholic cocktails are not to be outdone. For the less courageous: wines, champagnes and beers are also on the menu. The more expensive prices than elsewhere seem entirely justified in view of the quality of the offer and the experience on offer. In short, it's a door you have to dare to push, and an appearance you have to overcome, for an excellent evening out in Freiburg.

This breakfast paradise is located on the outskirts of Freiburg, in Freiburg-Lehen to be precise. This bucolic café is a veritable institution of the German "Frühstück". After all, in Germany, breakfast is no joke! For prices that defy all competition on the other side of the Rhine, you can take advantage of several formulas featuring a wide variety of fresh produce of undeniable quality. It's fresh, tasty, local and well-cooked - you'll want more! The service is pleasant, smiling and bilingual.

Attention trendy address in sight! Skajo is the place to be when it comes to drinks in Freiburg. Ideally located on the main alley, venture into the lobby, take the elevator to the top floor and discover the city's most beautiful rooftop. The view is quite incredible, in fact, and is the reason why Fribourg's elite flock here at weekends, especially for the now-famous soirées blanches organized by the establishment. The elite? Yes, because the prices are in keeping with the establishment's luxurious surroundings. The modern, sleek, trendy, designer decor and the view do come at a price. That's why we don't particularly recommend this restaurant: the prices seem to us frankly too high for the quality and level of cuisine on offer, although the quantities are there. Although the cocktails, wines and softs are more expensive than elsewhere, they are nonetheless of the highest quality, and we're sure you'll appreciate them for what they're worth. You can also take advantage of this sublime terrace in the afternoon, if you prefer a more leisurely pace. It's worth noting that it's open on Sundays in summer, which is not the case for many establishments in the center of town, and it's very much appreciated if you feel like cooling off after a day of wandering around the city. We recommend the Skajo bar for its social evenings, where you can rub shoulders with the fashionable people of Fribourg.

One of the few breweries held by a brewer, for a relatively masculine (even macho) occupation. In summer, this beer garden under chestnut trees is the place where Fribourg will be happy after work. In addition, we eat for really cheap.

The best breakfasts from Freiburg! In summer, terrace with sun loungers to enjoy the day that starts.

Hermann is one of Fribourg's favorite spots for young people. The decor is designer, the view of the trains original, and the terrace and rooftop pleasant. The service is dynamic and smiling. From breakfast to dinner, it's open all day long. At lunchtime, like any self-respecting café in Fribourg, the menu changes weekly and is available on Facebook. We advise you to come for a coffee, to enjoy their famous waffles (a dish much appreciated by the locals).

Art, culture, clubbing and gastronomy… In Passage 46, there was no de facto choice: the place breaststroke these four elements. Open at noon, it is possible to enjoy a lunch or afternoon snack, to enjoy a concert at the beginning of the evening or a piece of theatre and to finish in a disco atmosphere. An original and complete concept. With or without alcohol, the cocktails are delicious.

Discover the Café-Jardin Tibet Kailash, Fribourg's secret jewel! Between prayer flags, bright flowers and a stupa blessed by the Dalai Lama, this sanctuary is not just a café, but a haven of peace. Cross the green archway to the backyard café, where stress evaporates to the sound of the piano and the scent of ginger tea. These gardens, overflowing with almost kitsch greenery, offer a spacious escape from the hustle and bustle. A place where every moment becomes a soothing escape. You can also visit the Tibetan handicraft store!

At the Kastaniengarten, history and beer come together in a unique experience. In summer, enjoy a cool drink and a local specialty under the setting sun. This garden is the ideal place to share convivial moments with friends, family or lovers. Whether you're looking for an evening with a view or a gourmet breakfast, you'll find the perfect setting. Come to the Kastaniengarten to celebrate the harmony between tradition and modernity, authentic flavors and a lively atmosphere, friendship, good food and a passion for beer.

For music lovers of all kinds, the Jazzhaus is Freiburg's must-see music venue. Open since 1987, it's located near Freiburg station in a former wine cellar, said to be one of the city's most beautiful. A landmark of Freiburg's nightlife, it welcomes you almost every evening for a variety of concerts. And there's something for everyone: jazz, of course, but also blues, soul, pop and rock. Supported by a public-private partnership, it was awarded the "Spielstättenprogrammpreis Rock, Pop, Jazz" in 2013 for its high-quality cultural program and its contribution to German cultural life. The venue organizes over 250 concerts a year, attracting bands from all over the world and an equally diverse audience. From international stars to up-and-coming bands, the atmosphere is one of diversity and discovery. It can also be privatized for receptions, weddings, birthdays and other events.

The cultural center takes its name from the building in which it is housed, a former power station with typical 1900s architecture. Founded in 1989, the association now has around a hundred members. The center hosts over 400 performances in the fields of dance, theater, music and visual arts. From small local projects to large international troupes, diversity and multiculturalism are the order of the day. A champion of a young, innovative cultural scene, the venue is also home to numerous artists, with 30 permanent workshops, the Bewegungs-art für Neuen Tanz dance school, the Fribourg theater school, the Jazz & Rock school, the "Die Schönen" musical theater, and more recently the Südufer. If you're on a tight budget, you'll find that many services are free of charge, thanks to the unstinting support of the City of Freiburg and the State of Baden-Württemberg.

Beautiful, elegant café located in the city theatre. Pleasant and pleasant atmosphere.

Punk's not dead? The last apaches of the punk revolt are here. Everything is black: ceiling, walls and leather jackets. Only the green or pink ridges give a little color. Also jungle, hip-hop or gothic evenings. A underground site known throughout the region.

Want to cut short with everyday life? Need a holiday on the seashore without the budget that goes with it? No problem, Mauritius is there for that. The establishment reopened in July. The place is restaurant and bar, all in a resolutely summer and lounge atmosphere. For a casual lunch or dinner among friends, you can choose between various salads, pizzas, grilled meats and toasted sandwiches. Very "vacation" dishes, served in good quantity for quite nice prices. But what attracts mainly the Fribourgeois is the terrace their feet in the sand. Deck chairs, deck chairs, floating wood tables… They even thought about the sandbox for children. You can sip a cocktail among the many proposals of the map. You can find classic Sex on the Beach or Cosmopolitan, but also some pretty fruity creations like the Blade (tequila, vodka, strawberry purée, lemon juice, raspberry syrup). They are fresh, well executed, well dosed. On the "alcohol-free" side, cocktails are not with about twenty fruity and original propositions. We're valid. Tie your belts, the Petit Futé team wishes you a good flight.

A very busy coffee for students, renowned for their croissants! Good cakes also from adjacent bakery.

Jos Fritz always has the walls full of artistic photographs of local artists. Its coffee is extra and its outdoor terrace is surrounded by walls and countryside, with green plants everywhere. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Past the small entrance, the walls are covered with old posters of all kinds, old wax candles that seem to have known generations of beer lovers. The sofas are comfortable, and you can go to the bottom of the bar, go down a few steps and find themselves in a charming inner terrace (where you can smoke) where you can use huge beer in a shoe-shaped glass. Eat well, try flammeküche (salty or sweet), Alsatian speciality. You will definitely come back to this!

A beer garden in front of a lake can only be nice. It has been experienced: indeed, a good time to relax!

A cult alternative bar for the Fribourg nights. Regular concerts.

The most popular student bar in Freiburg. A short distance from the city centre, take line 1 towards Springs and stop at «Am Bischofskreuz» stop. The StusieBar faces the artificial lake «See, and the summer terraces are open, offering the view on the shores of the lake. Special evening every evening: shotnite on Wednesday (shot at 0,50 €), DJ or karaoke night on Thursday, Party night Saturday…
