Chez Son Père
One of the city's best loved boîte à chansons (a Québec folk music club) this spot boasts a great atmosphere and is probably the first place locals will send you if you're interested in seeing this rollicking kind of French folk music. You can catch some newcomers here, plus occasional big-name concerts. The cover charge varies; sometimes it's free.

Kiosque Edwin-Bélanger
Thirty-five free concerts are staged each summer in the middle of Battlefields Park. Music covers everything from pop and jazz and world music to blues.
-
Largo Resto-Club
Thursday, Friday and Saturday, the music-mad Largo owner lets the jazz club side of this resto shine, bringing in local bands, singers and musicians from as far away as Los Angeles. Upscale, ultra-relaxed, slightly swish vibe.
-
Les Voûtes De Napoléon
Another massively popular boîte à chansons . Its impossible-to-find-on-your-own entrance means it will likely be just you and the locals - it's underneath the Restaurant Bonaparte. If you can't find the entrance, just ask a Quebecer to point you the rest of the way.
-
Pub St-Alexandre
High ceilings and dark wood house a regular mix of tourists and loyal locals. Their pub-grub is fine, though generally unremarkable. It's the atmosphere and the near encyclopaedic-range of suds (250 sorts!) and over three dozen types of single malt that will keep you coming back. Occasional live music (Celtic to jazz) on Friday and Saturday.

Scanner
A bit of a mystery this place. Its inside is unremarkable and the staff of below average enthusiasm but ask any local between the ages of 18 and 35 where's a cool place for a drink, this is one of the first places they'll send you. Come see if you can figure it out. Live rock bands every Saturday from September to May. Terrace outside in summer, babyfoot and pool inside year-round.
