If you were looking for a place to bump into your neighbors over a pint, sip on a homemade cocktail during an exciting quiz night, or let your kids run wild while you relax in the sun, you’ve come to the right spot. Since December 2021, the 500 de la Cartoucherie in Toulouse, offers 500 m² of warm vibes and unexpected encounters. Located in the square of the Charter of Communal Liberties (the name is as long as the afterworks are joyful), this hybrid venue stands out as a friendly and festive UFO in the Toulouse urban landscape.

Craft Beers and Local Specialty Stands
On one side, a cozy craft beer bar that exudes friendliness. On the other, three food stalls run by local gems: Le Comptoir Azterren with its juicy burgers, L’Encas Antillais Bio des Îles serving delicious accras that take you on a journey, and the delightful educational surprise: La Table du Lycée Hôtelier, where BTS students whip up dishes that rival those of Michelin-starred chefs (special mention for Hot d’Oc, the cassoulet sandwich that will make your taste buds dance).
A friendly place with a vibrant program
But what makes the 500 special is its cultural buzz: over 100 events a year, including exhibitions, karaoke, big-screen sports, stand-up comedy, crochet workshops... even your grandma would find something she loves here! And if you feel like reserving a spot for a party, wedding, or seminar, that's also an option.
In short, Les 500 is like a village within the city, a lively, inclusive, and wonderfully charming place where people come to eat, drink, laugh, dance, and most importantly... come together. Let’s just say that once you dip a little toe in, you'll never want to leave!
Address: 1 Place de la Charte des Libertés Communales, 31300 Toulouse, France
