In Toulouse, the arrival of summer means jackets come off, sunglasses are perched on noses, and one idea keeps playing in everyone's minds: finding THE perfect terrace to toast and relax. Here are our favorite spots!

The most friendly: The Central Hub

For those dreaming of a little green getaway away from the urban hustle, head to La Centrale, nestled on the Ramier island. There, you can forget everything, and the vibe is totally chill, with sun loungers under the trees, beach hut decor, and a summer playlist. You can enjoy grilled treats between games of mölkky or pétanque.

Yes, we shop for clothes at a thrift sale, dance during a little impromptu concert… In short, life as we love it, outdoor style!

Address: All. Fernand Jourdant, 31400 Toulouse, France

The most beautiful view: L'Écluse d'Eric

A little further on, still on Ramier Island, l’Écluse d'Eric embraces the terrace with a view. And not just any view: facing the Garonne, nestled between the Saint-Michel and Tounis bridges, magic happens as the sun sets. This spot is perfect for sharing a cocktail, enjoying a dinner with friends, or having a long lunch. It’s simple: once you’re settled here, you won’t want to leave!

Address: 2 Imp. du Pont Saint-Michel, 31400 Toulouse, France

The Most Colorful: Les Terrasses de L’Atelier

If you love lively, eclectic, and colorful places, then Les Terrasses de l’Atelier is just for you. Tucked away in the heart of a vast urban garden, this modern hangout offers a whopping 1,000 m² of joy: think urban jungle vibes, fairy lights, sun loungers, street food stalls, barbecues, and sweet cocktails. It's a true playground for adults who want to savor summer down to the very last drop.

Address: 1 Chem. des Étroits, 31400 Toulouse, France

The most laid-back: La Friche Gourmande

In the same spirit, la Friche Gourmande has become the summer HQ for Toulouse locals who love to eat well and have a good time. You'll find street food stalls, two bars, a permanent festival vibe, and plenty of games. It's cool, lively, no fuss, and absolutely perfect for long evenings.

Address: 10 Imp. Didier Daurat, 31400 Toulouse, France

The hidden gem: La Cour des Consuls

Looking for a more intimate, elegant place that doesn’t skimp on atmosphere? Head to la Cour des Consuls, a true hidden gem in the Carmes district. This discreet five-star hotel opens its stunning, lush courtyard in the summer, where you can sip on a signature cocktail or enjoy exquisite cuisine. It’s the perfect spot for a special evening or simply to indulge yourself in a magnificent setting, away from prying eyes.

Address: 46 Rue des Couteliers, 31000 Toulouse, France

The most refreshing: L’Envole Côté Plage

And for those who want to completely go on vacation without leaving Haute-Garonne, there's L’Envol Côté Plage in Balma, just a few minutes from Toulouse. The lineup includes sand, bean bags, palm trees, fresh cocktails, and some amazing DJ sets. During the day, you can relax with your feet in the sand, and in the evening, it's a chill atmosphere with a dancefloor under the stars. A little paradise just minutes from Toulouse that makes you want to extend summer endlessly!
