MIDTOWN. Although it's been around for more than 30 years, BRB continues to thrive, thanks to its focus on country and western music and its appeal with the two-stepping gay community. Lots of folks attend its weekly events, whether they hit the dance floor, shoot a few rounds of pool, or simply prop up the bar, cold beer in hand. You can be assured of a friendly welcome when you come, and you'll likely be inclined to try out your karaoke skills or even capitalize on Thursday night's dance lessons. Busy and popular.

DOWNTOWN. A renovated 19th-century building is home to Grasshopper, whose interior mixes aged brick, granite, leather, glass, gilt, antiques, and crystal. The chic venue offers both a dance floor, where patrons groove to hip-hop and R&B, and a lounge, where quieter activities are favored. Curtained-off alcoves provide even more privacy, although they do come at a price. The singles scene at Grasshopper is particularly hot, so be prepared for mingling and lots of introductions.

MONTROSE. Quite literally above the rest, Scott Gertner's Skybar and Grille occupies a penthouse that affords sweeping views of downtown.

Patrons needing a bit of fresh air can make their way out to one of two open-air terraces – the western one offers a tranquil fountain and spectacular sunset views. Two-drink minimum.

MONTROSE. For some of the city's premiere dancing, take advantage of this always-hip gay club. Within its walls, pulsating mixes of the world's top music have patrons moving to the beat, showing off toned bodies, coiffed cuts, and expensive clothes. When the place gets too hot, suspended jets spray liquid ice, cooling the dance floor as laser lights shift and throb overhead. The lobby offers comfy seating when the club's activity becomes too pronounced. Drinks can be expensive, but that's a small price to pay for the ambience and fun.

WEST HOUSTON. Toss a bit of spice into the nightlife mix at Tropicana, which gets rave reviews for its sexy salsa dancing and vivacious patrons. No one's shy when they take to the dance floor, and club-goers are eager to show off their best moves, so it's not uncommon for the place to get crowded. If you simply want to sit and watch, that's okay, too. A full bar serves drinks galore, and large screens highlight Latin music videos or in-house bands. You'll also find fine cigars in stock.
