There are many hot spots throughout Orange County for party nights, but some are more so than others. Instead of hopping all over Southern California to find your perfect club, check these out if you haven’t already.
Strate Configure Annex
330 East 17th Street
Cosa Mesa, CA
Open daily 12pm-2am
The Pierce Street Annex is closed during the day and completely transforms itself into a night club. One of the top dance spots in Orange County, this is a unique venue that offers great music and food. You can cook your own barbecue on the large patio. You may also bring your own food, and cook it, if you like.
There is always something going on here. On Sundays they have live music from 4-8pm and there is no cover charge. Pool league groups on Fridays, and Tuesdays are Taco and Trivia night. Wednesday and Thursday nights have amazing drink specials – 3 drinks for $10 and 3 drinks for $11 respectively. Friday and Saturday are reserved for great dance music and DJs.
The atmosphere is what you would normally expect from a club – wild and energetic. The dance floor itself is a bit small, so when the place gets crowded, it gets really crowded. Now the outdoor pool is the perfect escape if you need a bit more quiet and fresh air.
They seem to work a lot here, and everyone is very friendly and more than efficient. The servants know what they are doing.
The cover charge varies, but Sundays and birthdays do not have to be paid!
