Jazz programming every night of the week
Jazz Café puts live music on almost every evening. Jazz on Tuesdays, music trivia on Wednesdays, blues on Thursdays, concerts on Saturdays, gypsy jazz on Sundays. The musicians play just a few metres from the audience in a room decorated with vintage posters and black-and-white photographs of Davis, Fitzgerald, Parker. The schedule is what makes it work — there is always a reason to come back.
A 1950s atmosphere
Through the door, it is red light and low ceilings. The portraits on the wall are serious musicians from another era. The space is intimate enough that you can hear what the player is doing with the chord changes. This is not background music over cocktails — the music is the point, and the cocktails are just a bonus. Two minutes from Plaza de la Corredera. The regulars are there for both.
Cocktails at honest prices
Mojito, old fashioned, margarita — prepared without fuss and priced between €5 and €10. No happy hour advertised, but the value is already there. The spirits are decent. Nobody is skimping. The atmosphere does the heavy lifting.
Opening hours and location
Jazz Café opens every evening from 9 pm. Weeknights close around 3 am; weekends push to 4 am. Calle Rodríguez Marín 7, three minutes' walk from La Corredera. For more late-night Córdoba, see our guide to Córdoba after dark. If rock is more your speed, El Último Tango is the alternative.
