    A Pigna d'Uva

    It might look like a makeshift bar in a neighbour’s garage, but this threadbare enoteca is a local darling. Selling the city’s cheapest vino (wine by the plastic cup starts at €0.70, bottles around €2 to €3), it’s a brilliant spot to soak up the neighbourhood vibe, with an eclectic cast of regulars spanning lefty artists to sing-song drunks. It’s also a handy spot to sip a spritz before noshing at Nennella.

    Goodfellas

    Only a few years old, this barrel-vaulted watering hole serves up infectious live music (anything from rhythm and blues to rock and jazz) nightly bar Tuesday and Saturday. It’s a hit with music aficionados, who’ll warn you not to miss a show by local bluesman–guitar whiz Gennaro Porcelli and his Highway 61 (www.gennaroporcelli.com).

  3. L'Arenile di Bagnoli

    Best known for its posing, Campari-sipping fashionistas, Naples’ most famous beach club redeems itself with gorgeous views, a magical atmosphere, cultural events and a brilliant Tuesday-night jam session (€10, includes one drink, 10.30pm), which sees the top cats of the Neapolitan music scene trading licks and venting off.

  5. Arenile di Bagnoli

    The biggest of Naples’ beachside clubs. Order a pizza, catch a band or hit the beachside dance floor for thumping house under the stars. The club is a short walk south of Bagnoli station on the Cumana rail line.

    Trinity Bar

    Trinity Bar looks like any other cafe on the block, but for some mysterious reason it draws the biggest crowds on Piazza del Gesù Nuovo. So grab a beer and join the throng.
