Address: 8 Amman Square, Cornish El Nil
This spacious Nile-side club has an in-house DJ at the decks almost every evening, and the discs he spins are techno with an Arabic twist. Absolute is exclusive, but in lines outside Cairo clubs, simply looking Western can mean an assumed wealth that will guarantee you a welcome and maybe even a slow dance with an opportunist. Drinks are expensive...

Address: 2 El Mahad El Swissry St
Eccentrically decorated, with records nailed to the walls and televisions hanging perilously low from the ceiling, this outpost of the Deals franchise is laid back and friendly, with a welcome as warm as the beer is chilled. Just like any neighborhood tavern, it starts to fill up as the city comes home from work as locals mingle easily with...

Address: 1113 Corniche El Nil, Nile Hilton Hotel 12344
This is a fantastic venue to hit when you fancy seeing a live (not only jazz) band, though if you prefer your music recorded, the house DJ spins a fine line in salsa. The atmosphere's cozy, though sometimes you can't hear yourself think. The staff are happy to introduce you to Egyptian drinks, or even recommend a shisha from the pipes of many...

Address: 5A Sayed El Bakry St, Cairo
Popular with 20-somethings, L'Aubergine is an all-round great hangout. The DJ busts the latest tunes through what is reputed to be the city's beefiest sound system and the floor vibe is friendly. Once things kick off at around 10pm, the place fills up fast; it's wise to reserve a table the day before you go.

Address: Blue Nile Boat, El Saraya El Gezira, Cairo
With an in-house DJ pumping out an eclectic – and increasingly renowned – mélange of Eastern and Western beats, Morocco has become a stylish and popular destination for well-to-do Egyptians and pan-demographic tourists looking for a place to let loose. Its popularity has sky-rocketed recently, so things can get crowded and it's best to reserve....

Address: 6 Abdel Hamid St, Odeon Palace Hotel, Cairo
Perched on the rooftop of the Odeon Palace Hotel, this bar enjoys wide popularity. Drinks are reasonably priced and the atmosphere, which is often heady with shisha, is relaxing. Nobody feels the need to get excited, and a night spent here is equivalent to a long soak in a hot tub. The décor's impressive, too, with its mother-of-pearl tables and...

Address: 28 Shagaret El Dor St, Cairo
Rich in the possibilities of being dimly lit and cozy, Pub 28 is just the place to come to rev up before setting out for serious clubbing. If you're expecting a big night, you can line your stomach with some pasta or a steak here. Lone wolves who want to be lone no more can easily hook up with the friendly expats who form the club's permanent...

Address: 1113 Corniche El Nil, Nile Hilton Hotel, Cairo
Gingers and Freds take heed: gloriously attentive staff and gorgeous nocturnal views make this one of Cairo's most acclaimed hangouts. Ensconced on the roof of the uber-suave Nile Hilton, this is a five-star eyrie for those rich enough to risk their scuffing their Giuseppe Agostinis on the dance floor. An excellent – though obviously not cheap –...

Address: Casino El-Shagara; Cornish El Nil, Cairo
Although Sangria sometimes seems unable to decide whether it's a restaurant-bar or a nightclub, it's still a big favorite with local clubbers. It certainly ticks all the right boxes: the music's fine, the booze is reasonable and the location – looking out across the Nile – is unbeatable, especially on a hot summer night. All sorts of parties take...
