Vancouver, Washington is a small town just outside the busy metropolis of Portland, Oregon. Although there aren't any traditional nightclubs in Vancouver, there are several venues that cater to the late-night crowd, giving residents of this sleepy Pacific-Northwest town several options for a night out on the town.
The Back Alley Bar and Grill caters to customers who want to party until the early hours. Back Alley hosts karaoke, drink specials and dancing until 2 a.m. every night. It is also open for lunch on Saturday and Sunday, when guests can take in an NFL game on one of the many flat-screen TVs in this casual pub-club.
