If you have not seen that Carte Blanche episode yet, newsflash, Latino’s has become a no-go on the Strip, and you should definitely find a new spot for your nights out. Here are some suggestions with different vibes to replace this nightclub.
Lucky Rodrigo
A retro bar located in Lynnwood. If you are looking for your next “How I met your Mother bar.” with a tight dance floor and a secluded feeling, this is the place for you. If you are looking for a place to go with your group of friends, you have found the right spot. It caters to all tastes, a casual bar or clubbing experience.
Kapstadt Brauhaus
For all our K-Way wearing friends or those looking for an upmarket bar experience, this is the place for you. Kapstadt can be found in Menlo Park. The best eisbein (German pork on a bone) and foreign beer north of the Vaal can be found here. This is the best bar to have a chilled drinking experience with your friends.
Summit Skybar
Are you on the lookout for a good DJ and a light-up, open- air dance floor? Summit, based in Menlyn, may interest you. If you get tired of the dance floor, there are laid-back booths where you can catch your second wind. And on a cold winter night, the restaurant downstairs doubles as a club as well.
Altum
For those who are interested in the multi-club experience of the Strip but have safety concerns, Altum is your best alternative. Located in Hatfield, this variety nightclub has multiple dance floors to cater to different vibes. Be it techno, house or live music, Altum has a place for everyone.
Sunset Bar
Conveniently situated on the Strip, this is the place for pre- drinks. So even if you want to hit another location, this is a good spot to start your club crawl. It is difficult to say no to a R20 beer or the quick bar service during Happy Hour. So pull through for a short time or a long time, just keep the drinks flowing.
These are suggestions, so find your place and find your vibe. Latino’s is not worth the risk of being another statistic.
