    Hi everyone! My name is jane and i just got into shanghai two days ago. I'm a 25-year old law student who is working here for a month this summer, and i'd love to meet some english speakers to hang out with. Does anyone know any good bars to meet american expats? Or just foreigners in general?

    Thanks in advance!! :)

    Face, Building 4, Ruijin Guest House gardens, 118 Ruijin Er Lu, is one of the loveliest buildings and bars in Shanghai – a dark-panelled 1930s mansion filled with pan-Asian artifacts and a cosmopolitan herd of drinkers (escape them on the outside lawns).

    O’Malley’s, 42 Taojiang Lu, is a staple of the ex-pat bars, with a solidly Irish beer garden.

    KABB, Lane 181, Taicang Lu, is a great pondok Cerita terraced vantage point for watching the chic street crowd in Xintiandi.

    Bonne Santé, First Floor, Easter Tower, 8 Jinan Lu, is a comfortable and sophisticated wine bar,

    while Windows Too, 1699 Nanjing Xi Lu, recently revitalised, is the most sociable and vibrant of the RMB10-per-drink dive bars.

    Which one? The Constellation chain is apparently expanding in Shanghai with now Constellation 3 located 251 Huangpi Bei Lu, near Jiangyin Lu.
    The original Constellation Bar,86 Xinle Lu, near Xiangyang Bei Lu (in the French Concession on the trendy shopping street Xinle Lu), is still there. Have a try at their cocktail "Zombie" ;-)

    At Hongqiao, Hong Mei Road, "Lao Wai Street" which literally translates to "Foreigners Street". It's a long street full of bars and bistros, showing sports TV and playing music. Should be able to find a bar u like there.
