Drinking & Entertainment
Night owls, rejoice: St-Pierre has a well-established party reputation. The best buzz can be
found on the seafront. Most places open from 6pm and close at around 2am or later. Most
drinking spots also serve food.
Café de la Gare - Latina Café
( 0262 35 24 44; 7 Blvd Hubert-Delisle; 7am-midnight; )
Despite the noisy terrace on the
main drag, this cafe in the old train station is one of the most atmospheric spots in town
for a drink (or a light meal). In the evening it transforms into a convivial bar. There's live
music on Sunday (at around 6pm). It may change location during the lifetime of this topic
- stay tuned.
