Atlantic City: Entertainment and nightlife
Atlantic City sells itself as the fun nighttime city; but the nightlife centers on the casinos and Boardwalk amusements. Once you get bored with slot machines there is little else to do. Big-name entertainers perform regularly at the casinos, with tickets in the $30 range - the free weekly Whoot has listings. The Comedy Stop comedy club at the Tropicana (tel 609/340-4000) has twice nightly shows, each costing $18. For cheaper informal fun, good neighborhood bars include the friendly, dark-paneled Irish Pub , 164 St James Place (tel 609/345-9613), which serves cheap food and often has live Irish music, and McGuire's Pittsburgh Café , 142 S Tennessee Ave (tel 609/345-9607).
