For a cheap night out, Zhose-a-zhose (Pidgin-English for "Those are those") is an area on the south side of Ghana Avenue west of Luangwa Avenue, just across the street from the Kabwe Golf Club, which features several different bars, a butcher shop with a grill out front, and other stores - a Castle or Mosi beer here will cost you K5000 ($1), and different Zambian and American hip-hop songs will be blaring from the sound systems in the various bars.
In the various compounds (Makululu, Lukangwa, etc.) there are places similar to Zhose-a-zhose but a bit lower-class. One in Lukangwa has a main bar named Holly Hood.
Big Bite is a combination fast-food place and bar on the south side of Independence Avenue. Be advised that bars in Zambia by law close at 2230 hours (10:30 pm), so if you want to party in public after that you need to go to a nightclub.
A great nightclub in town, on the north side of Freedom Way, is Chez-nTemba, which is run by Congolese and features mostly great Congolese and some Zambian music, and has a dance floor.
