Cassidy's

It's now conclusive: If you want to dance on the FW side of DFW, Cassidy's is the place to go. Last night at Studio 80 was fun, but it just can't hang with Cassidy's. Better dance floor - Cassidy's (they have a sand box and the floor is smooth - both floors at 80 were like glue and the back lounge floor is way too small) Better seating - Studio 80 Better drinks - Tie Better DJ - Cassidy's, by a mile (the main floor DJ at Studio 80 👎🏻👎🏻, the lounge DJ at Studio 80 👍🏻👍🏻) Better service - Tie, with a slight edge to Studio 80 Better dance crowd - Cassidy's, again by a mile Security - Cassidy's (they don't let people on the floor with drinks because they know this is an actual dance club and spilled drinks make it a sticky mess) It really comes down to the DJ, the dance floor, and the crowd. At Cassidy's, the crowd knows what they're doing and the DJ knows how to mix it up to make all the demographics happy. If Studio 80 switched DJs and had the back lounge DJ run the main floor, this would be a much different conversation. If you're someone who wants to get down to "Safety Dance", "I love rock and roll", "Karma Chameleon", and "Livin on a prayer", hit the main floor at Studio 80 and they'll give you that and more. For people who like to dance, including multiple line dances you won't see at a white couples wedding, head up 35 to Meacham and go to Cassidy's.

Really great drinks and music. Nancy Pants was our bartender and really made or bought enjoyable. The drink menu is outstanding, had the flamboyant monk, fancy pants, smoked pecan old fashioned, and a new one that is a gin old fashioned with fired lemon peel. Reasonably priced drinks as well, and very well made drinks. I've seen this quality of mixology in expensive speakeasies.

By far the most knowledgeable staff in the game. Drinks are great, well made, and the staff makes the atmosphere impossible to leave because they are so friendly. The bar staff including miss "nancy pants" take great care of their clients, and make you feel like theyve known you for years. Get yourself down there and try one of the many original drinks that are customized for your enjoyment!!

This place is always PACKED in the weekends!!! There is never dull moment here. Most of the tunes are throwbacks from different decades especially 80s and 90s but as the night goes on they sometimes play modern club music but nothing explicit. The crowd is mixed but generally everyone is over 40. Even though I'm in my 20s I still love going !! Great people watching if nothing else. Drinks aren't cheap and aren't too strong. I normally pregame to save some money. Sometimes there is a cover after 8 so get there early and get a seat...it fills up FAST!!!
