Bar Corto Maltés
Calle del Temple, southwest of Plaza del Pilar, is the spiritual home of Zaragoza’s roaring nightlife. This is where the city’s considerable student population heads out to drink and there are more bars lined up along this street than anywhere else in Aragón. It’s the sort of street that you can wander down as late as 11pm and wonder if the action has moved elsewhere – no, it hasn’t yet arrived and doesn’t really get going until well after midnight. On this street, Bar Corto Maltés is always full and one of the favourites.

Quo Vadis
You don’t need to be as sleek and cool as the bar staff or as shiny as the Modernista decor at this smart but easy-going bar to feel welcome here. There’s a great friendly mood to go with the background music that ranges from 1970s and ’80s to indie, but never too far from rock. It opens during the day for breakfast and snacks. To get here, walk southwest along Paseo de la Independencia, then turn right onto Calle de Cádiz and follow it to the end.

Bars
Calle de Espoz y Mina and Calle Mayor, a stone's throw from Plaza del Pilar, have plenty of varied bars from which to choose. There's a satisfying buzz round the Plaza del Carmen area in the newer part of town where a string of café-bars and restaurants keeps things lively day and night.

Estación del Silencio
Paying homage to local music heroes Los Héroes de Silencio, this bar blends rock memorabilia with a mixed, dressed-down crowd of local celebrities. It's a real Zaragoza love-in, which makes up for it being a fair hike south of the centre.

El Cantor de Jazz
This popular place pays heavy tribute, by its name alone, to the first film talkie. A nice selection of jazzy instruments is part of the décor and the sounds are a mix of blues, R&B and even a bit of jazz, with occasional live turns.

Zen Gong Café
This place wouldn’t look out of place in Madrid or Barcelona, with stylish decor, weird-and-wonderful lighting and a breadth of atmospheres from breakfast cafe to lunchtime wine bar and then on into pop, house and even drag acts by night.

Rock & Blues Café
Rock ‘n’ roll paraphernalia and homage to the likes of Jimi Hendrix set the tone for the music and style of this long-standing favourite. There’s live pop, rock or blues on Thursdays at 10pm.

La Casa del Loco
Hugely popular, especially when there's a live band playing. It's mostly rock with a mixed young-retro crowd. After the bands go home, DJs ensure that things get really lively until late.

Paradys
There are a couple of gay clubs just south of Paseo de María Augustin. Paradys is a friendly, stylish place, where red satin curtains separate the bar from the crowded dance floor.

Oasis
A few streets west of the old centre, Oasis began life long ago as a variety theatre. It’s currently going strong as a club with good techno house, but with a bit of ‘anything goes’.

Gran Café de Zaragoza
This Zaragoza institution evokes the grand old cafes of Spain's past with a gold-plated facade and an old-style civility in the service. That said, it's a place to be seen by young and old alike and the elegant salon is a good place for morning coffee or breakfast.
