If you have the money and the time, it is well worth visiting Madrid for a night out, as it has a variety of clubs and bars. Alcalá has a surprising number of rock-orientated bars (no clubs), for example Paranoid or the Panadería, as well as more commercially-orientated places such as Gabanna or Can-Can. It is a surprisingly active place for such a small town, when it comes to night-life.

Many people actually went into Madrid if they wanted a proper night out. In Alcala, however, there were lots of small bars everywhere and one or two clubs. The "zone" was always busy on the week-end, and there was a club called Can-Can which held a special night on Thursdays for Erasmus students. The best cafe has got to be the "Renacimiento" cafe which had the best milkshakes.

Either stay in Alcalá for the Erasmus Parties (almost every night, in bubs like Irish Pub, la Vaca Flaca, Cambrinus,... or in night clubs where you could dance) Or you can go in Madrid where the night Life is awesome (in Jazz Bars, Nightclubs and pubs)

The bars there were awesome. It was such a neat experience to go to the bars with the locals and get to know some of them. Two of our favorite bars were Can-Can and Los Gatos.
