Bar Dey
This is one of the most relaxing places to drink, especially on a warm day if you can persuade the waiters to serve you in the garden. The bar has an elaborate Moorish interior. Drinks are suitably expensive, up to DA550 for an imported beer, a little less for a half bottle of local wine.

Le Racym’s
The kitchen managed to spoil even the most basic French dishes, but perhaps its claims to serve authentic Vietnamese food are more convincing. Instead, come late for the music, especially on nights when there is a live act, when the place gets packed and the audience begins to move.

Cinéma Algeria
The risks associated with going out at night during the 1990s, the lack of spare cash and the advent of the DVD all spelled trouble for Algiers' cinemas. But some, including this, are still managing to run decent programmes of films that may be in French or Arabic.
