About La Place des Canailles
La Place des Canailles is a multi-room restaurant-bar in Les Docks Village; what sets it apart are four distinct spaces: the Pergola (375m2, up to 600) that turns into an outdoor dancefloor at night, plus three indoor rooms, Le Cabaret (stage and large bar), La Jungle and the Secret Room (lounge seating). On Tuesdays the site lists a “Latino Party” with a DJ playing salsa and bachata, so music tends toward DJ social sets rather than live bands.
Expect a mixed crowd of couples and groups; reviews describe a busy dancefloor and a friendly mood but also repeated complaints about selective door staff and reservation/entry issues, you may be turned away if you haven’t booked. The venue keeps late hours (open until about 01:00 on Tuesday nights) and the Pergola/Cabaret floors firm up after 23:00.
Food and tapas are served late and the site promotes a parking forfait; if you want to dance aim for the Pergola or Cabaret on Latino nights, dress tidy, carry ID and book if you can.
