Default DFW Folks: Good bar/club for 21st?

My sister-in-law is turning 21 soon and we want to go out. What's a good bar/club to go to for a 21st. Someoplace that would make a big deal out of the birthday maybe? I keep hearing Pete's Piano Bar, but want more ideas.


Thoughts?

I went to j. gilligans for mine and had the whole patio/covering area for our party. They didnt make a huge deal but made it worthwhile. I drank free all night, whatever I wanted, their drink specials were awesome, and they didnt kick us out or make us stop doing anything that we wanted to do.

Pete's is cool if you go once or twice a year. It gets old since it's the same set list every night, but for a first timer it's a good time. If you're going on a weekend, I highly recommend getting there before 9pm to get a table. It seems the cover goes up $1 every f'n week, but last time I was there it was $8.

not sure exactly where Allen is, but just an idea: if you go to Austin for your 21st you get free shots at everybar

Most places in Sundance sq.(Downtown Ft. worth) are fun. Like 8.0, fox n hound, The Pour House is sweet to. In Arlington I love Caves. real chill,but lots of fun,killer jukebox,one of a kind decor,and great drinks. Dallas go to Lower Greenville. The beagle is usually kickin. Or Addison(north dallas) has some good spots. Have fun!

The library in downtown fort worth is a cool bar to go to, they won't make a big deal out of a birthday though

Pete's is great if you want to stand for 3 hours. Try closer to 8:00 if you want a table, they are completely full at 8:30. They'll do a birthday deal but she'll be on stage with 5-6 other people with birthdays.

City Streets will make a big deal in the Karaoke bar if you tip a little. Not gonna get any recognition anywhere else though since they are also packed in pretty good on weekends.

For $20 at the Ice House they'll put her up on the bar with half the waitresses dancing and she'll get the "body shot" of her choice. The best deal in my opinion It is a biker bar though so it might not be your cup of tea.

I would highly recommend Club Clear but you better make sure you get bottle service in the Vault with VIP b/c it'll be PACKED!

Went to dicks for my birthday this year. If it hadn't been for my friends it would have SUCKED! Food is less than average, drinks are WAY overpriced and weak.

Great live music venue and I've never seen the cover that high. It was $8 with Vallejo and the Mad Mexicans last time I went. It might be $20 with a major label act.
