Not a pub for the ladies. They have two dart boards and one pool table

Every night is packed with a mixed crowd that love the Filipino band. Expect them to play rock classics

Flamenco chillout music

A dark and dingy American-themed bar with a regular rock band and DJ

Restaurant and Arabic nightclub that hosts salsa nights

Gorgeous cigar bar with some soothing jazz piano in the background

Swanky cigar and champagne bar with a European library feel. Collar and jacket dress code

Entertaining sports bar with excellent, female-friendly atmosphere

Not the best club in town, women should give it a miss

Covered sports bar on the roof of a hotel, with a widescreen TV, darts and a jukebox

Restaurant bar with comfy chairs, cocktails and a lounge vibe

A smoky bar with a pianist. It holds a weekly ladies’ night on Wednesdays where you can have a free glass of bubbly

Guest DJs play chillout and house music on Thursdays. Regular drink promos to lure the ladies. The restaurant and bar is decorated in a Colonial style. During winter you can chill out on beanbags as you sip their expertly-made cocktails

Faux Irish pub that has regular DJs; including an excellent DJ on a Friday afternoon. Enjoy the happy hour(s) daily between 12 noon-7pm and 10pm-11pm. Sports screened on Saturday and Sunday nights

A cosy pub that is busy every night of the week. The darts board is popular, crudités are on offer as a free bar snack and, for some reason that escapes us, both men and women drink pints of Guinness through a straw

Down market venue. Rock Bottom’s has a regular DJ and band, Human Traffic, as well as drink promotions for the hardcore. The DJ plays hip hop and R&B. One of the few places in town that is always busy

Live music and great cocktails are the order of the day. DJ Cliff provides house music to get you jigging about. Currently the place to drink in town. Tuesday is Arabic night, and the normal band and DJ don’t play. Smart casual dress code, no sandals, trainers, torn jeans, T-shirts or... umm... bandanas

Bizarre small bar which is decked out in a car theme. If you look up at the ceiling, there are bits of car bonnets and all sorts. Middle of the road trio sing

Renowned for its good quality live music; Thursday nights pull a mature multi-cultural crowd who enjoy listening to covers by Prince and The Cranberries. DJ Chalkie then takes to the decks to play requests, the odd person has a boogie, but there’s no dancefloor. The pub has TV screens to watch sports matches

Average cocktail bar

Tiered Indian restaurant and shisha bar
