Top 100 Nightclubs and Bars for 2007 Selected
By Editors
of Nightclub & Bar Magazine
Oxford Publishing Inc., publisher of national trade
magazine Nightclub & Bar, has named its Editors' Choice Top
100 bars and clubs in the United States, which will be honored with a
special party at the Nightclub & Bar/Beverage Retailer Beverage and Food
Convention & Trade Show ("The Show") in Las Vegas, held March
4-7, 2007.
Nightclubs and bars from all over the United States were
chosen based on a number of criteria, including annual revenues, marketing and
advertising effectiveness, promotional expertise, uniqueness to market, food and
beverage programs and much more. This list is NOT a ranking of just the most
high-end, of-the-moment nightclubs; instead, it is a dynamic mixture of clubs,
neighborhood bars, sports bars, family-oriented venues and more that for one
reason or another deserve notice.
The following bars and clubs, listed in
alphabetical order, made the Editors' Choice Top 100 for 2007. The city
designated for each is the city in which it is located, or, if the concept has
multiple locations, the city of its first location.
