It's not everyday that you walk into a bar and see live mermaids swimming in tanks above you, but come to Dive Bar on a Friday or Saturday night and there's a good chance you just might. Dive Bar is the place to meet up with friends after a long week to just hang out. As mentioned, the biggest draw to the bar is the huge fish tank hanging above the bar. Dive Bar plays all sorts of music from old school to the new stuff, so you'll never feel left out. If you can't make it during the day, it's definitely worth the trip to come during happy hour, as the food is worth the visit.

With three resident DJ's, a smartly designed club interior that flows uninterrupted into an outdoor patio, the Park Ultra Lounge offers a one-of-a-kind club experience. If it's the weekend, you'll definitely want to check out Park Ultra Lounge as they've got events and specials every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. This club is very much catered to a more mature and older crowd (mid-20's early 30's) so if you want to rub shoulders on the dance floor with all the single ladies and gentlemen, this is the place for you. But if you just want to unwind with your friends and chill, you can do that too as there are plenty of booths to the side with available bottle service.

Classic Americana with a modern twist, Shady Lady Saloon is always a good night out. Their food is exquisite with solid fare including Fried Green Tomatoes and Shrimp Po'Bos, selections that can't go wrong. Esquire Magazine ranked Shady Lady Saloon in the Top 25 bars in America in 2004. The wonderful 1920's ambience is reason enough to head over.
