Fort Lauderdale: Nightlife

After a day at the uber-gay Sebastian Beach, you’ll want to quench your thirst, dance and be entertained. Luckily, there’s no shortage of places to do just that.

Village Pub
2283 Wilton Dr, Wilton Manors
(754) 200-5244
Village Pub is a popular bar for local regulars to hang out and knock back affordable drinks.

Scandals
3073 NE 6th Ave., Wilton Manors
(954) 567-2432
Scandals looks like a real western saloon and the crowd enjoys the cheap drinks, line dancing and hanging out on the patio.

Ramrod
1508 NE 4th Ave., Fort Lauderdale
(954) 763-8219
When you cross the bridge from Wilton Manors into Fort Lauderdale, Wilton Dr. becomes 4th Ave. Just a few blocks south of Wilton Manors, you’ll discover Ramrod, the area’s leather bar, famous (or is that infamous?) for its monthly “Pig Dance.”

The Manor
2345 Wilton Dr.

Two floors, a martini bar, and a lively crowd make for a pretty awesome club.

Georgie’s Alibi is in the center of it all and is known for its cabaret shows, food, and friendly bartenders.

Tropics
2000 Wilton Dr.

Tropics is a piano bar popular with the older set, but is just as well liked for its extravagant buffet brunch and dinners. New owners have just taken over, no word on how that will impact its clientele.

Sidelines is Wilton Manors’ sports bar.
