Lamplighter in Gastown. They have the TVs like Shark Club, the food much like Shark Club, and a dance floor, much like Shark Club. And yes, can accomodate 20+ people, food is alright for what you pay for, and they have a bar to get you guys drunk out of your minds.

I worked with someone who 'tended there and he had nothing but bad things to say about it. I also didn't really like the food or service when I went their for a co-workers bday (mind you I went a couple years ago, it might have improved).

What kind of SICK rumour is that?! 
I assure you it had nothing to do with any thing licensing related, it was purely our choice to close for those 3 days (the 3 slowest days of the week rather than closing over the weekend) 
We closed for 3 days to do cosmetic renovations:
- sanding down the hardwood floor and re-varnished
- re-designed the front lounge area to make it more spacious
- new sexy booths
- re-painted & touched up all the scratches on the walls from the years of partying
- a few other minor maintenance updates
Just a refresher overall and we waited til after the New Years to do the renos since the floor was going to be trashed during the busy Holidays anyway!
Oh and yes we are now open for business as of Wednesday, January 6th.
Come check out the new modications!  (Note: There might still be a faint scent of wet paint around the washrooms as they were more difficult to aerate haha)

A few years back, this place was a dump but since that new group bought it over, they've polished it up. Whenever I work at our Gastown location, I go to Lamplighter once or twice a week for lunch. The service has improved tremendously and it isn't a barfeteria like the Blarney Stone.

I went to Lamplighter a few times last summer and really enjoyed it. The food was surprisingly good (it wasn't great but i expected bad) and reasonably priced. They often have good live music too. A great place to hang out if you're in gastown.

To clarify, SHARK CLUB DID CLOSE DOWN ....their lights are still out...i dont know when they will re-open. I was just at Chop, and i noticed sharkclubs sign is not lit.

Lamplighter is A LOT more casual and the food is better.

I was there end of 2007 when we had that big snow storm.
