Mynt on Calhoun Street is a great go-to place for dancing and drinks. The bar makes their drinks strong and they have good DJs so the tunes will be just right for dancing. And if you’re out and about early during the week, there are great happy hour specials like $1 tacos and half off liquor.

Prohibition has expertly made cocktails in a great atmosphere. You might not think “dance club” when you think of this establishment, and in a way you’re right. It’s not flashing lights with a DJ dance club, but if you want to do some swing dancing or salsa, check their calendar for those special nights.
