Annabel

Enticing, raw and urban are the words that describe this café and pop stage a stone's throw from Rotterdam Central Station. Annabel is one point of the golden triangle of Schiestraat (the other two are Biergarten and BAR). When it's sunny, you can enjoy a seat outside.

Rotown / De Vegan Snackbar

Rotown is a popular place to listen to live bands from Rotterdam and abroad, but also for dancing on various DJ tunes. Housed in a former Chinese restaurant, Rotown has been an institution in the city's musical history for over a quarter-century. It hosts primarily alternative bands and artists, from pop to dance.

Maassilo

Maassilo is located in a former grain silo at Massshaven, near the Maas River and one of the most spectacular club venues in the Netherlands. All kinds of dance and music programmes regularly take place here, presented by various party organisers. The clubs patronage consists of different cultures and sub-cultures who represent the core of the trendy international club scene.

BIRD

BIRD jazz club not only wants to revive the jazz of the past, but also wants to update it for the 21st century. Jazz and related genres like soul, latin & funk, hip hop, afrobeat and electronica form the core of the music programming, complemented by other jazz-related art disciplines such as performance poetry, film and visual arts.

Ballroom

Ballroom's hallmark is its selection of over 52 different gins from 14 countries, enough to impress even the most jaded gin connoisseur. To go with your gin, order some of their famous meatballs. Ballroom has two patios, one on the street side and one in the garden, where you can sit outdoors along the back of the bar.

Supermercado

At the corner of the Witte de Withstraat, you can find a bar and restaurant Supermercado. This cosy place reminds of a bubbling South-American cantina. Young families, professionals and groups of friends — everyone is welcome at Supermercado, for a good coffee, late lunch or early dinner. You can eat your heart out with one of the many meat, fish or vegetarian dishes that are prepared in a truly Latin American way on the charcoal grill. Also, you will of course find Mexican tacos and tortilla chips on the menu. Order a cerveza or tequila as a side and your evening is complete.

Wunderbar

At Wunderbar, you're instantly transported to the relaxed atmosphere of a vacation in Germany. Sip a beer outside on the patio, or play a game of table football inside. Wunderbar serves the drinks you won't find in many other cafes, like Fritz-Kola (sweetened with Stevia) and Wostock (an East Berlin herbal cola drink). The unusual craft beers served here include Raging Bitch and Punk I.P.A.

De Gele Kanarie

The beer and food paradise De Gele Kanarie is on the corner of the Goudsesingel and the Mariniersweg. The interior of the bar may remind you of the Bokaal and Weena cafés, also owned by Ron de Jong and Dave Heijnen. De Gele Kanarie serves lunch, dinner and various types of beer, wine and mixed drinks. They also have their own brewed beer on tap: DGK or De Gele Kanarie (Yellow Canary).
