Les Becs à Vin
If you like to spend evenings savouring good wine in relaxed settings, this is the place for you. Try some of their wines that you rarely see outside France.
Glitzy clubs under medieval vaulted ceilings, rock bars with a Gallic flair, down-to-earth pubs with amazing views and, naturally, wine bars that proffer the famous wines of the region in a relaxed atmosphere. Central France has much to offer when the sun goes down. Here are six best places to head when nighttime comes.
L’Astrolabe
The rich programme at this top venue offers everything from pop and rock to dance parties with top DJs; an assured great night out if you like your music live.
Les 3 p’tits Cochons
A one-stop recipe for an enjoyable night out with good food, drink and live music all served up over the course of an evening. An air of real bonhomie.
Le Shaker
Literally on the Island of Gold, in this case it's the sun that turns the historic city a fabulous hue of gold as it sets. Arrive for sundowners and stay on.
Le Marquis
If you like your hip-hop and the high life associated with Hollywood rap stars, Tours has its own, rather more tongue-in-cheek, version. OTT hedonism. Enjoy.
