Barberousse
There are 70-odd types of aromatic rum (think cherry, apple, papaya etc) to try - many fermenting in giant pirate-style glass flasks behind the counter - at this superbly hip shooter bar hidden down an alley. Down a shot of cherry, apple, papaya or other fruit-flavoured liqueurs. Note that a planteur is fruitier than a shooter,and backpacks must be left in the wardrobe (around €1).

Le 365
This Pandora's box of knick-knacks oozes an atmosphere so relaxed it really is difficult to leave whatever the time of day. Hang out around low tables on comfy leather chairs and sip a hot chocolat Chartreuse (which comes with whipped cream, spiced bread, chocolate and dried fruit!) or something stronger. Look for the Michelin rubber-tyre man outside.

MC2
MC2 is Grenoble's most exciting all-rounder for theatre, dance, opera, and jazz - this is where syncopators swing at the Grenoble Jazz Festival every March. Entertainment aside, the complex itself is worth a visit - the Maison de la Culture (House of Culture) is a fine example of the contemporary French architecture dotted around Grenoble.

La Soup aux Choux
This very adult 25-year-old venue is the tip-top address for live jazz in Grenoble. Even if you're not an aficionado of blues, swing, New Orleans or contemporary jazz it's an atmospheric late-night spot to down a drink - that is if you're up for the cover charge.

Le Couche Tard
This grungy pub is another busy late-night drinking spot, but there are loads more to discover: Rue Brocherie, place St-André, tiny place de Gordes and the streets around rue Thiers are made for late-night exploring.

Styx
The air is vodka heavy at hip, chic and steely Styx where a cooler-than-cool clientele sip shots and cocktails beneath a vaulted stone ceiling. Designer bites include beef and salmon carpaccio.

momento
Steel and neon mingle with a well-dressed set at this trendy lounge bar (no capital M please) where tapas whets appetites and DJs set toes tapping from 22:30.

Les 3 Canards
A studenty in-the-know set favours this candle-lit bar with violet tables and a decor that seriously distracts. Locals call it 'Les 3C' ('the three ducks').
