This trendy Theatre District hotspot is the go-to place for singles looking to bust a move. The DJ specializes in mash-ups—or mixes of songs that couple current hits with familiar old-school tunes. The ambience of the Gypsy Bar is this nightclub's calling card with its half-moon booths, mood lighting and a circular fish tank full of jellyfish. One caveat: The Gypsy Bar has a velvet rope, so be prepared to wait in a long line (unless you’re a Paris Hilton’s look-alike). This used to be Pravda 116 before it changed to Gypsy Bar. Come dressed to impress for this Theatre District hotspot does not allow you in unless you look the part.

Restaurateur Rande Gerber (aka Mr. Cindy Crawford) launched Whiskey Park in an attempt to bring the hipster New York scene up east to Boston, with dim lighting, swanky leather couches, mohair pillows, and incense candles. The Park is packed with a diverse but definitely upscale crowd, everyone from older local businessmen to Euro jet-setters—clearly people who don't mind shelling out $7-12 for mixed drinks (although they do have a great martini menu). Dress to impress. Draft beer $5. Th Latin night. Limited pub menu served until 10pm.

The Roxy may once have been the haunt of the well-heeled college crowd. Those days, if ever they existed, are now over. Hordes of post-college men and women throng the outfit on weekends to groove to surprisingly monotonous house and techno music. Most of them are desperate for social contact, almost frighteningly so. If you still insist on rocking with the has-beens, remember that jeans will make you stick out like a sore thumb. The Roxy attempts College Nights on F, and the average age of the crowd may drop a couple of years, but the drinks are still expensive ($8 for a standard mixer) and the cover is steep ($15-20, check website for specials). The website lists a schedule of occasional live concerts.

The Roxy is the main location of the Boston Marathon® Post-race Dance Party. Features dancing at a number of Boston's nightclubs and video highlights of the race.
Probably the most fashionable club in Boston, Aria is easy to spot: just look for a long line of scantily-clad patrons trailing down the sidewalk outside the Wilbur Theatre. Decadence abounds here, with an overtly chic crowd and enough plush velvet to make Hugh Hefner jealous. Sample a drink from one of Aria's 3 bars while watching the beautiful Aria Angels dance the night away on small tables bordering the outer perimeter of the room. The DJ supplies pumping house and techno beats that will keep you dancing long after the angels have shed their wings. The themes range from ”Fashion House” Th to (appropriately enough) “Vanity” on F. Round the weekend off with some hip-hop on “Scandalous Sunday.” Very strict dress code: jacket and dress shirt for guys. Cover $15-20.

The Estate is an elegant and multi level entertainment venue for those who are looking for the sort of polished elegant atmosphere one might find in a place such as New York. The venue has been beautifully renovated by the R. L. Palmer Design group and with a new philosophy for service and quality our goal is to exceed expectations on every level. With traditional nightclub lighting, elegant full-length mirrors and a twisting arrangement of intimate seating areas The Estate has established itself as Boston’s ultimate nighttime destination.
Venturing in to the Alley you are bound to bump into the crowds of people in front of the Estate. If you are one of the lucky ones to get in you’ll find a bumpin' dance floor, under a roof of opulent chandeliers, surrounded by luscious leather couches. The new Victorian design, by RL Palmer, is a far cry from its old roots of mardi gras’ inspired the Big Easy. Instead, you’ll find a hip, stylish crowd looking to have a great time in the biggest club in the Alley. Don’t be intimidated by the star DJs, and celebrity guests that just happen to be best friends with the owners. You may even be asked to come up to the VIP section to help celebrate the World Series with the Red Sox. The VIP scene here is on the down low – as it should be – since there is no reason to taut a VIP party if its REALLY VIP.
Each night at The Estate has a different theme. For instance world class house music DJs are flown in on Friday nights.
The club's Thursday night party, called the Glamorous Life, has emerged as Boston's leading purveyor of gay hip-hop.

“Dress to be envied,” is the mantra here. Basic black is considered a faux-pas, and wild colors are definitely encouraged. A favorite amongst the Financial crowd, the club also attracts a smattering of college kids bored of the Lansdowne scene. Choose between the mellow club room, furnished with couches and a pool table, or the more action-packed dance floor complete with a full-length bar. Music is Top-40 and '80s. No hats, sneakers, or ripped jeans. Cover $5.

One of the 4 nightclubs to make up the Roxy Complex, the Matrix features a retro interior with a cyber edge (a.k.a. green laser lighting). The resulting flashy techno scene would make the nerdy Wachowski brothers feel comfortably at ease, if only it were devoid of human life forms as well. But don't look for the likes of Neo or Trinity here—considering Matrix's predominantly unpretentious college-aged clientele, you'd be better off flaunting your new Versace leather pants at Caprice (also part of the whole Roxy package). Music tends to be top-40, with a little disco, house, and latin (Sa) added to the mix. Cover $5-10, which grants you access to all 4 clubs (Matrix, Roxy, Caprice, and Encore).
