Dragonfly Club
Largest night club in Harrisburg. Two floors of entertainment featuring DJs and live bands. Spy Club, a small space located in the basement of Dragonfly features electronica and house DJs, but the entrance is separate around the back side of the building.
Molly Brannigans
Is a small chain of irish pubs with 4 other locations in pa besides the one in harrisburg. they have an impressive menu that includes steaks, seafood, and salads. the happy hour crowd is older from 5-7, but later on the crowd turns younger and a band usually hits the stage, while people dance in front. it has a great authentic irish feel.
The Red Door
Is harrisburg's only wine bar that is situated in the heart of downtown. they feature an array of wines both in varietal and price and a cozy atmosphere for a few friends or a date.
Harrisburg has a small, vibrant night life for those who enjoy good food, good company, and good drinks.
Harrisburg's downtown atmosphere dynamically changes throughout the day. During the day, you can explore the coffee shops and quickly prepared meals designed to accommodate the government and downtown workforce. Early evening you can hop between restaurants during their happy hour specials typically 5-7PM. Stay downtown for dinner and you can enjoy a nice sit-down meal.
