Once the premier spot to see live indie music, the Kilowatt now showcases DJs only, along with pool tables, dart boards, good beer and a spacious dance floor. With its high ceilings and creamy clapboard walls, the space feels more expansive than your average dingy dive bar, but make no mistake: The diverse crowd—dogs included—is here for some serious partying.
