Oude haven
On a hot summer night the terraces in the Oude Haven are crowded with young people. When it is a bit chilly (and Rotterdam sometimes is) it is still nice to go there and have a drink or eat something in one of the many cafe’s like cocktail bar Stockholm (Spaansekade 12), which has a really great, very clean interior. The staff are generally students from the local universities and members of the Rotterdam student clubs (sororities/fraternities).
Villa Kakelbont
Villa Kakelbont is a cheap student café. It is not very big, but it has a great atmosphere and staff. It is a simple, old bruin café and they have a huge terrace in the summer!

Cambrinus
Cambrinus has a great beer selection!!! Head on over if you are missing your favorite home brew, or looking to try some unique local beers! It is a favorite with the local university students. If you want to hang out with students, eat student food and be served by students, this is your place! While you are there check out their day dish! It’s only € 4.- and tastes OK!

Plan C
Plan C is one of those places where students go to dance, drink and flirt. It’s underneath one of the Cube houses and almost every Saturday there is a band playing popular covers (pop music) till 1 am and a DJ till 5 in the morning. Come drunk and you are sure to have the time of your life!

Riva
Riva is a trendier place where you can drink, eat and dance till late but make sure to put on your push up bra or tightest t-shirt – look like a DIVA when you go to RIVA! Riva is generally filled with students and young people looking for a date for the next weekend. However the drinks and food are not cheap so keep that in mind and flirt with the right people… the ones with lots of money!!

Club Vie
Club Vie is a posh dance club where they play everything! Once you are done with RIVA head on over to Club Vie. The main floor is mostly dance and club music, but in the basement you will find music with a more sexual vibe, BoBling, Reggaeton, R&B, etc. Everyone in Club Vie is living the high life, at least for the evening. Act like money doesn’t matter and you are sure to have lots of fun. Watch out for the toilet lady though, she is ready to attack anyone who tries to pee with out paying, so make sure you have extra change for the bathroom. Entrance is free until 11pm and then anywhere from € 8.- - € 15.-.
