APO
102 South 13th Street
(215) 701-4786
At long last someone cooked up the madcap concept of mixing healthful elements and boozing, then shaking it up and serving it up in sleek minimalists digs. A backdrop of steely grays is punctuated by dramatic brilliant greens curiously similar in hue to those Pharmacie signs seen all over France. A second-floor outdoor space adds drama, fresh air and a scene over bustling and burgeoning 13th Street. Cocktails are cleverly crafted with inventive ingredients, fresh elements and the occasional egg white.
Bleu Martini
24 South 2nd Street
(267) 439-4852
Located in the heart of Old City Philadelphia's bustling nightlife strip, Bleu Martini's neon blue lights make it hard to miss.

Nightly music and in their large two-room space make Bleu Martini a place to party. Specializing in more than 30 different martinis, Bleu Martini was named one of the best martini bars in the city.

Lucky Strike
1336 Chestnut Street
(215) 545-2471
Lucky Strike, a national chain of upscale bowling lounges, has quickly become the alley of choice for local hipsters just in for a drink and ten-pin enthusiasts alike. Despite over a dozen lanes, weekend waiting times have been known to top two hours. Those on the list--no reservations are taken--pass the time drinking designer cocktails whle gawking at an astounding video monitors.

McGillin’s Olde Ale House
1310 Drury Street

In case you miss the neon sign reading "Est. 1860" on the way in, you'll certainly notice centuries' worth of Pennsylvania tavern licenses displayed over the bar. Located on a small street just a stone's throw from City Hall, the brick-walled and red tile-floored pub claims its fame from being the oldest continuously operating Philly saloon
Sumo Lounge
1224 Chestnut Street
(215) 238 1903
A stylish bi-level club extends the hours and square footage of the trendy sushi spot Raw. Located in the back of the restaurant but possessing its own entrance, the sleek, Asian-inspired square space invites fashionably clad 20 and 30 somethings to groove to the beat of two weekend house DJs who spin mishmash, along with a steady rotation of party promoters who bring their own sounds and their own followers. The mezzanine is bottle service only, with an unobstructed view of the glass wall where projections of sumo wrestlers, Japanimation and old movie footage shimmy alongside
32 Degrees

(215) 627-3132
This sleek space in the formerly bare-bones Upstairs at Nick's is outfitted in steely blues and low lights. 32 Degrees features two bars and ample space for mingling. VIPs reserve red-velvet booths in the front, where they're likely to use bottle service--iced-down bottles of vodka, Veuve Cliquot and more--rather than trot back and forth for libations. For those with an adventurous appetite, the raw bar is stocked with caviar sno-cones and tuna tartare.

This is no longer your little sister's Walnut Room. After a major renovation in the summer of 2008 that turned down the volume on the red décor and switched it over to whites and dark woods, tonight's Walnut Room is far more sedate and loungy.
G Lounge-
117 South 17th Street
(215) 564-1515
Foregoing the elevator up to the steakhouse upstairs and heading down into the subterranean digs of G feels like you're descending into a post-modern speakeasy. A cascading wall of trickling water is only overshadowed by an electronic waterfall of "electronic wallpaper" across the room. A comfortable lounge and bar upfront, replete with requisite flat screens is at once slick and welcoming, underscored by luxurious and stylish appointments. Multiple room configurations make G a flexible spot for parties of all sizes.
