L'Apollo

L'Apollo is a bar at 19 place Fernand Lafargue, a square in the old town. Le Bonbon describes it as one of the oldest bars in Bordeaux and lists it among the city's concert bars, mixing music nights with festive evenings. It is not a cocktail destination or a club, but a long-standing bar for music and a festive crowd.

It works best as one stop on a crawl through the old town before most bars close at 02:00. Check what is on before you go, as the music nights vary. Not for you if you want a quiet table: music nights are the point.
