Bridgeport's Hot Scene

Aquarius

Type of Bar: Dance Club

aquarius menu

Drinks

Food

Aquarius is a pool-themed dance club at the very top of a downtown high-rise building. The club has two floors. The lower floor—where you enter—is small because so much real estate is consumed by the rooftop pool. However, there is a bar on the lower level, as well as seating and a bathroom.

But the rooftop is where the party is. Up there, you have a huge pool for guests to cool off in when the night gets too hot. There is a second bar on the rooftop, as well as a dance floor, hot tub, and bubble bar.

This is a happening spot quite often, so make sure your Sim has cool swimwear just in case the desire for a dip ever overwhelms.

Banzai Lounge

Type of Bar: Lounge

Banzai Lounge menu

Drinks

Food

The Banzai Lounge is a glitzy, Asian-themed lounge in downtown Bridgeport. Most guests come through the elevator and pop right out into the heart of the lounge. To the right, a small stage is ready to host the latest hot band.

But straight ahead is a mixologist that’s more than capable of whipping of some wonderful (and expensive) drinks. There is a secondary lounge behind the main bar with a handful of Arcade Machines (exercise that hidden skill!), a smaller bar, and a bubble bar.

This is a great place to been seen, but unless you’re a celeb, don’t plan on ruling this roost just yet.

Bridgeport Sport Zone

Type of Bar: Sports Bar

Bridgeport Sport Zone Menu

Drinks

Food

Every town needs a behemoth of a sports bar, and Bridgeport is no different. This huge room is packed with sports fans eager to watch the game on several flat-screen TVs and enjoy some good bar food.

Sims can also socialize over tavern games like shuffleboard, darts, and foosball, all three of which satisfy a cratering Fun need and contribute to socialization desires.

The two bars can seat several patrons, there is a good-sized stage for a band (but no dance floor), and there is plenty of walking space, too; this makes the Sports Zone an ideal place to throw a party without breaking the bank.

The Brightmore

Type of Bar: Dance Club

The Brightmore menu

Drinks

Food

The Brightmore is a banging dance club in the basement of one of Bridgeport’s high rises. There are two dance floors for getting down with your bad self. And when it’s time to cool off, order up from one of the Brightmore’s dual bars – one per dance floor.

There is plenty of additional entertainment at this joint for Sims that don’t feel like dancing. Arcade machines test skills. A Bubble Bar lets Sim have fun blowing colorful (and possible moodlet-altering) bubbles with friends.

And for really good friends, there’s a hot tub in one of the smaller rooms. It’s perfect for making a move.

Eugi’s

Type of Bar: Dive Bar

Eugi’s menu

Drinks

Food

Eugi’s is a charming basement bar in downtown that is just the right size for a small group of Sims to gather and have a great time without spending too many Simoleons.

The long bar has plenty of seating for everybody, and the menu prices will not frighten off any potential clientele.

After ordering, you can collapse into the plushy booths against the wall or try your luck (or skill) at shuffleboard and darts. There is a small stage and dance floor behind the bar that is complete with instruments.

Plasma 501

Type of Bar: Lounge

Plasma 501 menu

Drinks

Food

If you are looking for the vampire bar in Bridgeport, you found it. However, when you fi rst arrive at Plasma 501, it doesn’t look quite like a den of the undead. Look closer.

The first floor of the bar has a nice stage for bands to play and comfortable seating for enjoying the music. There is a small dance floor for the vampires to vamp it up, too. Upstairs, though, is a professional bar set-up and some pleasant seating, which completes the lair. Well, “lair” might be a touch too gothic.

But it is definitely cozy enough for the local vamps, thanks to blood-red decor and plenty of comfortable lounge seating where the children of the night can ease the guard of the un-bitten.

Plasma's drink menu is extensive and surprisingly not that expensive.

The basement of Plasma 501 sleeps two.

The Grind

Type of Bar: Dance Club

The Grind menu

Drinks

Food

An old waterfront warehouse pulls double-duty as the hottest industrial dance club in Bridgeport. This fairly exclusive joint serves up its fair share of celebrities that want to dance the night away under flashing lights.

The Grind has a substantial dance floor, so if you ever want to throw a dance party for a lot of guests, this is an ideal facility. The bar is a touch spendy, but the quality of the food and drink is worth it.

And if you have a few extra Simoleons in your pocket, why not buy a round for the house and see if you can’t bank a few extra Celebrity Points while enjoying a night on the town?

The Prosper Room

Type of Bar: Exclusive Lounge

The Prosper room menu

Drinks

Food

The Prosper Room is one of the swankiest joints in Bridgeport. If you want to search for stars, this is the center of the universe—but good luck getting in there yourself without some celebrity status (or hacking skills to get on the guest list).

The Prosper Room lives up to its name with high-priced drinks and fare, but the quality is also top notch. There is a stage for a full band on the lower level of the Prosper Room, but even on nights without a band, the Prosper’s owners make sure there’s live music. Look for a piano player on the stage at all times.

Upstairs, the Prosper is a bit quieter. Cozy seating offers plenty of places to relax and schmooze up to a celeb, or you can dip a toe in the corner hot tub. Just do everybody a favor and don’t skinny dip.

Waylon’s Haunt

Type of Bar: Dive Bar

Waylon’s Haunt menu

Drinks

Food

Waylon’s Haunt is the dive bar on the waterfront with no velvet rope and no assumptions of wealth and celebrity. This is a place for everybody in town, although you should not expect to see any celebs here—unless you’re the celeb.

Waylon’s has a nice selection of food and drink. There are darts, shuffleboard, and foosball—all great social activities. You are sure to make new friends playing any of these games. A small stage is also on-site, and the nature of the joint makes it a good place for new bands to get started.

This is a perfect first stop for any newcomer to Bridgeport that needs to ease their way into the bar scene.
