The Mash House

You're walking down Guthrie Street in the Old Town on a Friday night, and The Mash House is where the energy is. This is a proper nightclub in the old-school sense—the kind of place where people actually come to dance rather than just nurse an overpriced drink and scroll Instagram. The space has a buzzy, unpretentious vibe with solid sound quality and the sort of atmosphere that gets better as the night goes on. It's not trying to be anything it isn't, which is refreshing in a city that's increasingly obsessed with being on-trend.
