Jenny's Blue Bar
7 Donghu Rd
+86 21-64157019
Metro: Shanxi Rd S

A friendly bar, run by Jenny in its present location since 2000. A wide choice of drinks, good music and sports coverage mean that it is popular both with expats and with visitors. Look out for the two cats that make themselves at home behind the bar, frequently sleeping on top of the television or the display units.

Judy's Too
176 Maoming S Rd
+86 21-64731417
Free
6PM, but the party does not really get started untill at least 10PM
Metro: Shaanxi Nan Lu

A somewhat cheesy but fun favorite among expats. Locals dance it up here too, but mostly before 11PM. Some feel this place offers all that is bad about older Western men and younger Eastern girls in Asia, at times there is some pretty unpleasant scenes, unfortunately.

Stormy Cafe Bar
229 Ln Danshui Rd
+86 021-63743576
Â¥20-40

Expect a warm welcome from Biru, Stormy's dog, and Killer, the resident rabbit, before you sink into a soft chair and get absorbed in the eclectic music selection or plethora of games at this cafe. Their small menu offers Japanese curry, toasted sandwiches as well as coffee, cocktails and beer.

Many bars, nightclubs and wine bars in and along Julu, Yongfu, Huaihai, and Hengshan Rds, and a handful of bars interspersed throughout Xintiandi and Tian Zi Fang.
