You said you wanted a bar without a nightclub, a place to meet folks and get drunk. Personally I avoid these places since most of them don't have a pool table (yay priorities), and the fact that you tend to dislike bars and clubs in general doesn't help me much. After some asking around however, the general consensus is hitting up the Fruit Loop.
The area is is Paradise Rd. between E. Flamingo and Harmon, near the Hard Rock Hotel. There's Gipsy (the rival nightclub of Krave), Double Down Saloon (not a gay bar, but tourists are scared to go in because of the location. Live music on Sundays and the legendary bacon martini), FreeZone, Buffalo (leather bear joint), and Get Booked (which has a really nice staff). I was also recommended to the Rainbow Bar and Grill, which I heard a lot of good things about.
The other area is the Commercial Center. It's the 900-1000 block of E. Sahara @ Karen. My experiences are a minimum since I now govern the west side, but I say it's at least worth a visit. The most noted place there is the Pride Factory, a part of a small chain from Florida.
And then there's Snick's Place (shameless plug!!) on 3rd Street.
That would cover my knowledge of the bars. For more information I suggest you stay up late and chat with my old co-worker Oliver at the Hard Rock. He knows far more than me about these things. XD
