Old Town
In Old Town the streets near the market have several bottle stores, which are basic bars that play music loud and late. This area has a very hard edge, so go here only with a streetwise friend, enough money for an evening's supply of beer and nothing that you can't afford to lose.

A
Africana Hotel
A lively place with a large outdoor patio that's popular with nearby office workers and government types. It's easy to make friends here and you're sure to strike up a conversation with one of the locals over a few beers.

Harry's Bar
Harry' Above Bookmart, this circular bar has a relaxed atmosphere with a happy, mixed crowd of expats and locals. It's a popular meeting place, although Harry's taste in music can be atrociously cheesy.

C
Legends
This is a bar most evenings and a nightclub at weekends, where young expats and well-to-do Malawians mix it up in a happy and energetic atmosphere. The music is a fair blend of Western and African.

Goodfellows Pub
Another lively spot and an expat haven. You can socialise at the pool tables, find a cosy corner, or plant a stool at the impressive wooden bar.

The place to go for a more local feel. It plays mostly African music to a mostly Malawian clientele.
