If you're in the mood for some crazy cocktails or to dance the night away then these places in San Francisco will be music to your ears! Put on something fabulous and join the rest of the party people as the night turns into morning with TravelSkoot's best nightlife.
Once the historic Stage Coach Theater, Ruby Skye is now downtown's most glamorous and gigantic nightspot, thanks to a dramatic renovation and the addition of killer sound and light systems that cast an oceanic effect on the dance floor. On many evenings there's entertainment by specialty acts, such as fire breathers, go-go dancers, glow in the dark hula hoopers, or trapeze artists. Meanwhile, hundreds of partiers boogie on the ballroom floor to house music, mingle on the mezzanine and around the three bars. Big spenders can book the VIP lounge for privacy and a bird's-eye view.

There's never a dull night at the Cellar. This subterranean spot can accommodate up to 200 revelers in its two rooms. Each is equipped with a full bar and hosts DJs playing everything from hip-hop to '80s classics. In addition to late-night dancing, the after-work crowd comes here to shoot pool or relax on the deep red-and blue-velvet couches that envelop the dimly lit lounge. Grab a seat at one of the alcoves, or challenge a mate to a game of pool. Sip your favorite cocktail at the bar, or get your groove on on one of the two dance floors.

Cha Cha Cha is a fab place to get festive. Pitchers of sangria will put you in the mood for the loud dining room decorated with Santería altars, banana trees, and plastic tropical-themed tablecloths. Order from the eclectic Latin- and Caribbean-inspired tapas menu and share the dishes family-style. Chicken wings in guava sauce, fried calamari, Cajun shrimp - whatever you choose, you can't go wrong. World beats and great people-watching keeps this spot lively and unique. This is the kind of place where you take friends in a partying mood and make an evening of it.

Club Deluxe may look like a dive bar from the outside, but inside it's an art deco gem. Stripped of pretense and heavy on charm, this smallish bar and lounge built in 1949 thrives on loyal patrons and local talent. Weekly live entertainment ranges from comedy to poetry to jazz and Brazilian music. Stylish, comfortable vintage furnishings include chrome and vinyl "dinette" sets, square, leather-topped wooden bar stools and high-backed, round booths perfect to cuddle in. A tiny stage, stand-up piano and several DJ stations complete the scene.

Harry's is a classic bar/lounge environment, with wood tables nestled closely together in an elevated dining area, and stools lining an expansive, dark-cherry bar. The emphasis is on quality cocktails and bar food, and the patrons are primarily well-dressed, white-collar singles in their 20s and 30s looking to loosen their ties - and those of their counterparts. It's an ideal place to meet a first date or group of friends. The drinks are expertly mixed and the bar fare includes the best Kobe beef sliders in San Francisco.
