I've been going to the Castle since it first opened. Always a great crowd and the best music ANYWHERE. If you are having trouble dancing here, you just don't know how to dance.
Far and away the best club in Tampa
Thursdays is definitely the night to go if you want to see the gays, but it also has a healthy mix of straighties too. A great place to bring a mixed crowd to dance. See Raven in the side bar upstairs - she is by far the coolest bartender ever. ;)
4 not much dancing
This would be anyone on Vampire Freaks' dream club, Old gothic setting, its more eye candy than ear candy though the music could be better.... its very dark music i understand it goes with the theme but unless your on drugs its kinda hard to dance to.
Very cool
Dark, loud and fun. Went a couple weeks ago and was very different than what I expecting. Awesome dance floor, good prices and some hottttttties. Also has a lot of little nook and crannies to have a more relaxed/intimate conversation. Would reccomend for sure.
