The Roxy Club:
For a nightclub that's only open two nights a week, The Roxy has easily positioned itself into legendary status among the techno and house dance crowd. Powered by a huge sound and light show that is matched only by its cross-town rival, Avalon, this royal complex can drive a beat through your rib cage and pump you full of adrenaline so fast you'll be buying the $4 bottled water without flinching.
Around midnight is when things really get pumping. The crowd of about 2,000 ranges from rookies who just want to people-watch to the VIPs and show-offs clad in nothing but the best and most revealing designer wear. Scope out the action from the upper balcony or mix it up underneath the stage dancers. There's usually hip-hop and R&B on Fridays, followed by techno and house on Saturdays. For the ladies, The Roxy hosts special Chippendale's nights and, from time to time, reggae and rock bands take over the stage. Any way you slice it, for a night of serious clubbing, it's hard to beat The Roxy. -- Jack Morris (Photo: Benjamin J. McElroy for AOL CityGuide)
Liquor store:
Everyone knows that if you're looking for a clubbin' good time, The Alley on Boylston Street is the place to go. The Liquor Store is no exception, with its infamous mechanical bull, poles for inspired patrons to dance around, and creative party themes. For example, there's a "home-made bikini contest" and every Thursday is Pay Day: Ladies arriving before 10:30PM receive free admission and a "paycheck" that they can cash at the bar. Shameless, perhaps, but you cannot argue that the vibe is high-energy and always entertaining.
The crowd here is young, beautiful and, more often than not, scantily clad. Mixed drinks are served in mugs and beer comes wrapped in a brown paper bag for a not-so-subtle tribute to the bar name. The Liquor Store gives special consideration for bachelorette parties (the lucky lady even gets an "I Survived My Bachelorette Party At Liquor Store" T-shirt). The DJ keeps the place going with a Top 40 dance mix, helping Liquor Store convey its spring-break vibe all year long. -- Melanie Miller (Photo: Benjamin J. McElroy for AOL CityGuide
Axis:
Never mind the extravagance of its next-door neighbor, Avalon; Axis, often referred to as the city's underground dance club, is its own animal, and when it comes to entertaining dance or rock crowds, these folks have it down pat. This split-level, split-personality club reels in the anti-Avalon college clubbers who still want the Lansdowne experience. A killer sound system starts thumping as soon as the bands play their last encore (usually around 9:30PM). That's when black lights start to pulsate and glow-sticks begin twirling through the darkness. Need a place to chill down? Head upstairs to ID, where the down-tempo tunes, plush couches and the occasional "What's your major?" inquiry either gets those stomach butterflies fluttering or sends you back down into the anonymous darkness.
Mondays are gay nights featuring live entertainment and the occasional drag show while resident and guest DJs spin house and hip-hop Thursdays through Saturdays. A stiff cover charge of $20 on Fridays gets you access into Avalon and the Modern. If you've had your fill of house music on Saturday night, head upstairs in jeans and studded bracelets for punk rock all night long. -- Jack Morris (Photo: Jack Morris)
Gypsy Bar:
The ultra-trendy Gypsy Bar (previously the ultra-trendy Pravda 116) oozes Euro-chic with its overstuffed leather booths and club scene in the back of the bar. Red neon lights highlight the giant mirrors along the walls, adding a cool glow to the giant jellyfish floating in a backlit turquoise tank behind the bar. If you aren't mesmerized by the fish, your attention will certainly be taken by the giant plasma TV screens displaying scantily clad models of the Fashion Channel.
Although the place is usually empty until about 10PM -- when the clubbers finally arrive to get their groove on -- dinner service starts at 5:30 and it is actually a pretty good deal. Nibble at an array of tapas and salads. Morroccan-spiced chicken legs and fennel-crusted ahi tuna are just a few of the internationally inspired offerings appropriate for Gypsy Bar's equally international clientele. The dance floor in the back rumbles to your typical techno-pop dance mix, and if it gets to be too much, there are several cozy corners (shielded by chain-mail curtains) to take a breather. -- Melanie Miller (Photo: Melanie Miller)
Rumor:
Once you cross Stuart Street down in the Theater District, you know you're about to hit sultry club central, and Rumor more than holds its own. The low lights inside cut a swath of chic across the room, giving glimpses of a well dressed, trendy crowd and snappy VIP night-dwellers lounging at their tables. Go there not to drink but to multitask, splitting your time between sweating it out to techno and people-watching -- though, be warned, if you're there earlier than 11PM, you're flying solo. The club doesn't even start to get warm until around midnight, and when it does, it's smoking -- this hotspot is a scene-stealer. The snaking line outside isn't even held to make this place look popular, the Rumor bouncers legitimately need to restrict the crowd outside, because if they didn't there would be no room for dancing. The line speaks for itself, everybody wants in. -- Jane Brandt (Photo: Courtesy of Rumor Night Club)
Saint:
The white-hot buzz surrounding Saint's debut as Boston's first "boutique nitery" has dimmed to a dull roar, but the subterranean space remains a pole star for the see-and-be-seen set. The underground warren resembles a space-age submarine, with the white-on-white Threshold giving way to the spacious Living Room and intimate Bordello. Plasma televisions lurk overhead and the bathroom doors are crafted of opaque glass, creating a chill modern vibe that is counteracted by cozy alcoves and comfortable lounge furniture (including a conversational bed).
Pan-cultural fusion is the theme on the minimalist menu, which bears the stamp of celebrity chef Rene Michelena. Michelena's multicultural moxie is evident in dishes ranging from curried crab cakes to a well-stocked bento box, while guests' thirst for creative cocktails is sated by fruit-infused vodkas and designer martinis. A-list DJs have put Saint on the map as a destination dance club, with off-duty Celtics and other celebs making the scene for theme nights like Ultralounge Tuesdays. -- Julia Clinger (Photo: Bruce T.

All of Boston is filled with bars and pubs, but there are two general areas for clubs. Lansdown Street, and the Alley. The Alley is right near the Theater District and has places like The Liquor Store. Lasndowne Street has Avalon.
