In the realm of strip clubs, nothing comes close to The Clermont Lounge. A decidedly run-down scene, this spot has claimed its fame for its aging line-up of strippers (who are as friendly as they are natural), the most famous of which is Blondie, who crushes beer cans between her bosoms. The crowd that attends Atlanta's oldest strip club is shockingly wide ranging. Everyone comes here, at least once, for the novelty. At the bar, you'll see a 20-something sorority girl ordering a PBR beside a 30-something young professional and a bonafide celebrity (Bill Paxton, Morgan Freeman, Jon Hamm and Jennifer Lawrence have all been spotted here). Musicians often play shows, and Tuesdays are karaoke night. Note that while this club is welcoming to everyone, it is not kid or family friendly; this is an all-nude strip club.

Part of the appeal of this Buckhead bar is in its secrecy. To enter one must dial a certain number in the phone booth that holds the entrance to the bar. Reminiscent of a speakeasy the cocktails are strong and well-crafted. There's an excellent bourbon list with lots of comfy couches that encourage lingering. However, it is one large room, so don't expect any privacy to get cozy with anyone. It is a good choice to take out of town guests. There is heavy cigar smoking allowed here. If you don't like it, this may not be the place for you.

High-ceilinged and open, this lounge stays busy constantly, packed with attractive, young professionals who come to meet and greet. Weekends are especially crowded, although the place has a more comfortable capacity during the week. And if you can make it to the patio, you'll enjoy the chance for a breath of fresh air and a little more elbowroom. Drinks are well prepared, especially the signature cosmopolitan, and a selection of appetizers (including calamari, shrimp, hummus, and eggrolls) provides added energy. Depending on the night, the lounge offers live music or DJ-spun tunes. Plus, Friday happy hour is a great way to kick off the weekend.

Sleek furnishings of chrome, glass and wood ably temper the poured concrete shell of this hip lounge. Its centerpiece, a white onyx bar, takes on the colors of changing light, and patrons cozy up to it for Halo's fabulous cocktails. During the week, the scene takes on a low-key vibe, and relaxing with friends is a standard pastime. On weekends, though, the pace picks up, DJs spin the latest tunes, and folks revel in the heightened activity. Drinks are top quality, food is served from 5pm until 10pm, and just so you know, the entrance to the lounge is located on Sixth Street, not Peachtree.
