INNER HARBOR. Located in the tourist and local gathering place that is Inner Harbor, it's impossible to miss this wild club thanks to its blazing neon lights and bass-heavy sound system, both noticeable for hundreds of yards in every direction. Once inside, enjoy a tropical drink from the always-packed bar or grab a beer from one of the famous bikini-clad "beer girls." Then head for the dance floor, which has several raised platforms that let brave souls and exhibitionists strut their stuff in full view of the crowd. Dance and Top 40 rule the DJ booth. If dancing isn't your thing, play darts or pool, or even grab a spot in the corner to watch ESPN.

FELLS POINT. Irish memorabilia, painted paddleboards and an upside down Christmas tree accent the interior of this bar, which occupies a rowhouse by the harbor. Over 40 beers on tap and impressive selections of ports and single malt scotches satiate patrons, and a terrific lineup of blues and jazz bands provide the entertainment.

FELLS POINT. The name may come from a pre-fight mantra – "I can take you AND the horse you rode in on!"), but there's nothing but good times and upbeat vibes inside this popular neighborhood watering hole. During the week, "The Horse" is fairly low-key, but things heat up on the weekends, when live rock is featured and the twenty-something party crowd comes out to listen, mingle, and dance.
