Irish Times
A congenial and genuinely Irish pub that attracts a very international crowd. There's live music (including lots that's Irish) from about 21:30 to 00:30 on Friday and Saturday; Thursday may be karaoke night; and Sunday features a trivia quiz with prizes (21:00). Major sports events - shown on the two wide screens - often push Saturday and Sunday opening back to kick-off time.

Théâtre de la CHOUC’routerie
In 1984 Roger Siffer, a singer, comedian, actor and producer known for his biting satire, set up this intimate theatre in a former sauerkraut factory. Performances are fun, experimental and trilingual (Alsatian, French and German). The theatre is a five-minute walk west of Porte de l’Hôpital tram stop, on the opposite side of the river to Grand Île.

La Laiterie is just a five-minute walk (500m) south of Petite France along rue de Molsheim. Trams B and C stop close by.

La Taverne Française
A mellow café favoured by actors from the national theatre, musicians from the opera house and students. A mixture of the old-fashioned and the endearingly tacky creates the ideal atmosphere for stimulating conversation. Bring along some fresh salmon and by the end of the evening you'll have lox.

La Java
A lively bar-dansant with a stylish saloon on the ground-floor and a grungy cellar - decorated like an old mine and the hold of a sailing ship - where you can boogy. Popular with the university crowd, especially on Sunday, when international students start gathering at 21:00.

Zanzibar
A laid-back bar in the heart of the Grande Île's student quarter. On most nights at 21:30 or 22:00, local groups (plus a few from abroad) play classics from the repertoires of garage trash, noisefuzz, sleaze punk, glam rock and psychobilly in the Dantesque cellar.

La Salamandre
Billed as a bar-club-spectacles, this discotheque - warmly lit, friendly and with a marble fountain in the middle - has theme nights each Friday (salsa, 1980s etc). Wednesday and Thursday events are often sponsored by student groups (open to all).

Le Seven
Hip hop, R&B and house dominate the decks at this central club. Though crowds teeter on prepubescent and drinks are pricey, it still throws a decent party and, as its name suggests, stays open until 7am.

Jeannette et les Cycleux
Elvis lives on, baby, at this swinging ’50s-themed haunt, where classic motorbikes dangle from the chilli-red walls. We dig the good vibes, retro decor and music from rockabilly to Motown.
