561-585-2583 | | | | | Description: LAKE WORTH. This throwback to past times is just the sort of club that real music lovers dream of. Intimate, comfortable, and dedicated to great tunes, Bamboo Room occupies the second floor of a circa-1923 social club. Its terrific, curving, copper-topped bar, complete with a display of vintage mixing accoutrements, turns out fantastic drinks, many of the recipes culled from Prohibition-era bar manuals. But the music, played in a (yes, it's true) bamboo-paneled room, includes local and national acts who regale patrons with the best in Mississippi- and Chicago-style blues. You'll also find jazz and other soulful genres represented. Upholstered furniture circles the stage, so score a seat here if you can. If not, anywhere is good for acoustics and views. Great jukebox, too.

561-835-8601 | | | | | Description: WEST PALM BEACH. Hip, dim, and fashionable, this CityPlace hotspot is always bustling and attracts a steady crowd of upscale professionals and tourists. Behind the bar, musicians perform on an elevated stage against a grid of blue-lit cubbie holes. On any given evening, you're likely to hear Top 40 tunes, Latin music, '70s disco, or classics by Otis Redding and Marvin Gaye. A small dance floor is available, and patrons actually do dance, in between sips of martinis (natch), tequilas, single-malt scotches, handcrafted bourbons, and wines by the bottle and glass. An outdoor bar serves to those who want to watch foot-traffic and be washed by balmy breezes. Appetizers and desserts are available to supplement the booze, and fashionable attire is expected.

561-533-7999 | | | | | Description: LAKE WORTH. The "space-age" décor from egg-shaped chairs to playful contrast of sky blue walls against stark white panels and gray flooring may trigger memories of "Jetsons" episodes. The globally-inspired fare adds an additional modern twist with bites like Cuban cigars (pork and julienne veggie rolls) with fruit salsa, and the Bombay bowl (rice noodles in spicy green curry broth). A fine collection of imported liqueurs make for a cocktail menu extensive enough to suit every taste. Weather permitting, an outdoor garden and patio, lined with ample seating and exotic sculpture, offers an appealing atmosphere.
