A
Octopus Bottoms-Up Club
A short stroll from Oginga Odinga Rd, this popular bar has two pool tables, a foosball table, its own disco and more Michael Jackson posters than we're comfortable with. With a largely male crowd and lots of beer flowing, single females may not find it the most appealing of places.

Casablanca
This hip new Moroccan-style lounge bar has been an instant hit with Nairobi's fastidious expat community, and you don't have to spend much time here to become a convert. Shisha pipes, wines and cocktails conspire to ease you into what's bound to end up as a late night.

Pavement
Split between a relaxed ground-level bar and the big, modern basement club, Pavement is the dancefloor of choice for most resident expats. Weekends favour the kind of jump-up commercial dance music you might get on a night out in Europe.

New Palm Garden Restaurant
Many tourist bars on Lamu Rd can seem like they're just glorified pick-up joints for prostitutes; New Palm Garden Restaurant could be put in this category, though things may lighten up a little out of season.

Bar Bar
A perennially popular high-season courtyard bar, restaurant and ice-cream parlour with nonstop Italian cable TV in the background. For a snack lunch, the panini and foccacia are recommended.

Klub House
The Klub House is an old favourite. The spacious bar has more pool tables than anyone else and is a good place to party until late. Music is predominantly Latino, Caribbean and African.

Mon Ami
Easy to find and always good for a drink, this is a lively bar with a pool table, welcoming ex-pat crowd and satellite TV, which blasts European footy in the evenings.

Hornbill Pub
A large, dark but friendly bar stretching the width of the block between Moi Ave and Tom Mboya St, with lashings of cold Tusker and sizzling nyama choma.

I
Gypsy's Bar
This is probably the most popular bar in Westlands, pulling in Kenyans, expats and prostitutes. It's as close as you'll get to a gay-friendly venue in Kenya.

J
Sky Bar & Restaurant
Not far from the tusks statue, this is a pretty seedy drinking hole with plastic chairs and lots of prostitutes. Most travellers only come here to play pool.

Zanze Bar
A lively and friendly top-floor bar with pool tables, a dance floor, and cheap beer, so that from Friday to Sunday it rocks until the early hours.

M
Taco's
Taco's sells beers by the dozen(!). An over-21s policy applies, for no apparent reason.
