A-House
Atlantic House (or A-House) has been the premier nightclub in Provincetown for decades. The complex is open year-round and features three distinct bars. Little Bar offers a jukebox, fireplace, and quirky nautical decor, and is a popular space for an afternoon hangout. Macho Bar is the city's original leather and Levi bar (complete with cage) attracting a cruisey crowd. The Big Room is the number one dance club in Provincetown, with state-of-the-art sound and lighting and the very latest music.
Spiritus Pizza
Established in 1971, Spiritus is a family run pizzeria and coffee bar serving delicious thin crust pizza and homemade ice cream. Everyone is welcome to take in this quirky spot for lunch or late night drinks, as the kitchen continues serving pizza by the slice after all the bars have closed. You'll often find the community gathering around Spiritus in the early hours. The pizza and delicious shakes are made with care using quality ingredients, and the venue displays works from local artists, creating a true sense of community.
