São Paulo Nightlife Guide for Tuesday, April 9, 2019
We have the top three picks for this Tuesday, and below there is a list of bars and lounges that are always a good option.
LIVE:
SLAM JAZZ Madalena (Vila Madalena) – A famous night spot in the artsy-bohemian neighborhood of Vila Madalena, Nossa Casa Confraria will host a SLAM JAZZ session tonight.
As the name suggests, the event will combine poetry slam battles with jazz music: The slammers will go up on the stage to recite, while a jazz trio will follow their performance.
The entrance is free, and everyone is welcome to participate in the battle.

Nômade Orquestra (Bixiga) – It’s simply impossible to stand still to the sound of the Nômade Orquestra, which will perform tonight at the alternative club Mundo Pensante.
The instrumental group is famous in São Paulo for blending funk, psychedelic, jazz, rock, afrobeat, dub, among other genres. A night for dancing with excellent live music.

LOUNGES, BARS & PUBS:
Void General Store (Largo da Batata)
A favorite among youngsters from all over São Paulo, Void is a clothing store that also has a bar. Hanging outside with friends drinking a “Catatônica” – a mix of Catuaba, lemon and tonic – or eating snacks like the vegan banana fritter is the thing to do there. Void is specially recommended for its affordable prices.
Void General Store – 10AM – 1AM
Rua Martim Carrasco, 56, Largo da Batata – Tel: (11) 3031-0088
Entrance: FREE
Bardega (Itaim Bibi)
Through a self-service system, one can try as many labels as they want in this bar for wine enthusiasts offering over 100 wine brands. The refined food menu, with items like the lobster tartar, is also worth trying.
Bardega – 6:30 PM – 1AM
Rua Doutor Alceu de Campos Rodrigues, 218 – Itaim Bibi – Tel.: (11) 26917578

Bar Original (Moema)
Serving what many consider São Paulo’s best chope (draft beer), Bar Original takes beer seriously: They serve six types of traditional draft beer, not to mention the Brazilian and international artisanal labels. But they also don’t disappoint when it comes to traditional cachaças, caipirinhas, and Brazilian food.
Bar Original – 5PM – 1AM
R. Graúna, 137 – Moema – Tel: (11) 5093 9486
