This private Irish club located in Lawrenceville is not unlike any other private club, VFW, etc…read morethat's been around for generations. It's open to the public for certain events throughout the year. We were here on St. Patrick's Day where a minuscule cover of $3 was charged. Beer prices were cheap and staff friendly. As you can imagine in St. Patrick's Day they were jam packed but the bartenders never lost their cool, never made you wait long and were nice. The crowd was crazy-fun and just a good time all around. The decor is older and lots of wood and kitschy stuff about including Kennedy family pics. Nice little gem in the city.

The place is always a good time. Check their website for theme events, drink specials, and events.read more

Swing City is a swing dancing club that goes on every Saturday night in Squirrel Hill and has been…read morefor many years. Its in a school/community center, on the top floor in the gymnasium and generally has DJ'd nights, occasionally live bands. Open to all ages with a cover charge at the door, cash only. There are water fountains and usually a snack table for a small extra fee. The crowd can be very diverse in ages, from young high school students to elderly adults well into their 70s and the amount of people can be really hit or miss. If you are looking for nights where you have more advanced dancers and a bigger crowd, make sure to go on nights where there is a live band playing or when there is a workshop during the weekend in town. For the most part, you will see east coast swing dancers, the occasional lindy hopper and the even more rare advanced dancers. There is a beginner lesson for an hour before the dance starts and you do not need a partner to go to the lesson or the dance, although it can be more fun if you bring someone you already know. The dress code is very casual. There is a small private lot, but otherwise, it is street parking only in a residential area, so it can be difficult to find parking if you show up past 10pm. Have fun!

If you're looking for good, wholesome fun in the city, Swing City is the place to go. Even if you…read moreare not a dancer or terribly comfortable in a social setting, you will gain confidence after the hour-long beginner's lesson before the night starts. It's a fantastic opportunity to meet people of all ages without the awkward silence. Anyone who is willing to get themselves into the door and on to the dance floor is sure to have a good time. Admittedly, the most fun can be had on nights with a live band, but even the DJed dances are enjoyable. Regardless, you'll find a mix of beginners to very advanced dancers and everyone is encouraged to dance with all. If you're looking for something unique, try Vintage Night (the first Saturday of the month) and dress in your zoot suites and twirly skirts. Otherwise, the dress code is very casual but be sure to wear comfortable shoes that can slide easily on the dance floor. There is a cover charge, cash only. Snacks can be purchased with a small donation. Parking is limited on the residential street, but usually still available if you arrive for the lesson. Those who are lucky enough to celebrate their birthday at Swing City will have their own special dance and be whisked around the floor by some of the top dancers in the city. (This made for an incredibly memorable and fantastic 24th birthday!) I would highly recommend Swing City to anyone!

Our clubhouse is a resource and support for those battling cancer; they have many programs designed to help and support those that are suffering from cancer, and their families. The rooms have wall to wall carpeting, and are realky nice, decorated like a comfy-cozy livingroom ( minus the toys, and family pets underfoot or lazing on the sofa). They have a complete, eat-in kitchen (that I would love to have), a gymnasium, and a quiet, dimly lit meditation room. They are always in need of volunteers. You can sign up for the marathon on their website, and get your registration fee waived. Win-win all around!

Green Oaks has a very nice pool with outdoor lunch seating, well maintained clay tennis courts, & a beautiful golf course. The club has a very accommodating staff, and friendly members.

In my opinion, this Club & Pike Run C.C. are the true definitions of quality "country" clubs.
