    Gosh, that's a big question. Tampa is not NYC but it's pretty big. What kinds of bars do you like? Upscale? Dives? Vanilla? Laid-back? What kind of guys are you in to?

    No, if you're thinking of thee DH, the girl you're describing is Gwen. We both have short red hair and tattoos (we're the only two redheads there actually) but other than that we look absolutely nothing alike. That being said, guys confuse us C.O.N.S.T.A.N.T.L.Y

    See, I dislike all those places. Plenty of people enjoy them though.

    ^^^
    Those are the places where guys that age range hang, but there are lots more besides that...depends on what you're looking for. Hula Bay is another good place but with a completely different setup/feel/etc.

    Thanks for the replies. Im looking to go somewhere thats not a dive and not too high end or pretentious, just somewhere with a youngish crowd, busy, dark lighting etc. The kind of guy I like is fairly clean cut, casual clothes, 25-30 if that helps.

    Well, these places (IMO) are on the pretentious side.

    I go to dive bars and more alternative type clubs.

    Heres one (of a few) lists of the most popular clubs in tampa.

    http://www.10best.com/Tampa,FL/Nightlife/

    Go there and google the names of some clubs, then you can see their website and decide if it's something you're interested in.

    OK then you want one of several general places...

    1-International Mall-There is a bar/clubbish sort of area in this mall that has what you're looking for
    2-Channelside-This place has numerous bars that fit your needs, but can trend toward younger, but you'll find guys here

    There are also some bars in the SoHo area that might work

    Yes, most, which is why I don't go to any of them. The only "nightclubs" I go to is czar and the castle. Other than that I go to bars and venues or bar/venues.

    Yes I was. A green xmas outfit. If by "night" you mean before 9pm. My hair is about 70 times redder now than it was Friday though because I just redid it.

    The Castle - been going there for 12 years. Gothic/Industrial on Fridays/Saturdays. Old school wave/gothic on Mondays and Emo/Indie on Thursdays (usually with some rap thrown in later in the night). Sundays are gay night.

    Czar - Indie club and venue, more pretentious that the castle but still good. Check the website for info on nights.. the castle has a website as well.

    Boneyard - Diveish bar on 7th in Ybor. One of my favorite bars ever. Pool, good people, laid back, never had a problem with assholes yet it's always busy (in a good way).

    Crowbar - bar and venue in ybor. I only go for shows, I'd rather go to boneyard for a bar.

    New World Brewery - Bar and venue, lots of beer on tap, live shows most days.. including Saturdays. They get a lot of good smaller bands.


    Four Green Fields - Fun Irish pub in south Tampa. Shows on weekends, big patio outside for drinking. Decent pub food.

    The Independent in Seminole Heights - HUGE beer list. Small place but good people. Closes early because of noise laws though (1am). Also, no pool tables/darts/etc yet so if you don't know anyone I assume it could be boring.

    Thanks Penny. I've been to Crowbar and liked it, and I keep meaning to get to the Castle. Have'nt heard of the others, I like the sound of the Boneyard.

    Boneyard's vibe is similar to Crowbar's ... I just find Crowbar boring unless there's a show. The pool table there is too close to the door so it's nearly impossible to use. All the places I mentioned have a similar vibe actually.
