Which World?

Are you against downloading userbuilt worlds? I only play Custom worlds for that very reason.
I don't know of any EA world that has them all.Except for Bridgeport(Late Night) But that world tends to be laggy.
And its not a family type of world.You could always place the lots though in Sunset Valley, bars that came with late night should be in the
community lots bin.

I tried placing a bar in Sunset Valley from Late Night but I couldn't find an empty lot the right size. I'm really not very good at this kinda of thing. :D

Next to the bulldozer button in edit town mode is a button, click it and it lets you place different lot sizes.I only play user made worlds, so I'm not sure if the game automatically places the bars in other towns, I don't think it does, and I don't recall any world except for bridgeport coming with preplaced bars, except maybe Starlight Shores(showtime venues)

If you have Showtime, then @GraceyManor manor is right, there are some venues which have a bar.

If you don´t mind downloading Custom Worlds, I would highly recommend worlds made by Rflong, they have some bars.

I can also recommend Great Bear or Cape Garner Islands by Johnnywr, this worlds have a lot of venues with bars and dance clubs.
But: there can be missing some (many) buildings and decorations if you don´t have all EPs.

So it would be good if you could tell us which Expension Packs you own.

@Sharonia
I do as well.=) I love lots and worlds that provide extra activities for my sims.
Welcome to the sims 3 community then =) You'll love the game!

One more idea: you can go to the Sims 3 store, to the exchange. There you search for community lots, use the advanced search function and search for bars in the lot size you would like to have. Download it and then place it in your game.

I don't like to randomly download from the exchange as CC can get attached to it.But you could search through DNA's blog
http://dnarequestteam.blogspot.com/search/label/Bar
They are a build team and have excellent reputation.The exchange if you just go downloading willy nilly has a reputation
of having CC attached.

@GraceyManor : much better recommendation according to downloading from the exchange!

Oh, I'm not saying not to...Just to be cautious.If I download from someone I'm not sure about, I use custard to make sure there's nothing
sneaky on it.

I had a pair of boots download once with a sim and I had the most difficult time uninstalling it.

@Sharonia : It´s not difficult to install a custom world. Nearly all of them are installed via the Launcher (there is a small % of worlds which don´t come as Sims 3 packs, they are world files, these are installed differently, but I would concentrate on the other 99% of worlds)

If you download a world which you like, you just need to double click on the world data
(the file looks like the ones in the picture, the ones with the green plumbob in front of them)

and the Launcher opens itself and installs the world. That´s all you have to do if you like to install a world. (sorry for the German, but I hope it helps :) )

But: you don´t have so many EPs, so you have to be careful, which world you would like to install, you have to read which EPs you have to own to be able to play the world. Sometimes you´ll just miss some deco objects, but if a creator uses a bridge from an EP you don´t have, you can´t access all parts of the world and the Sims will get stuck. Then the world will be unplayable.

From memory, several of the EA worlds have "bars" but, unlike Late Night bars, non-professional juice bars are used. If you are wanting the full bar experience with a mixologist on duty, you could either switch the juice bar with one of the professional bars that comes with Late Night or use this mod.

Everything Island might be good for you.It has all jobs and venues up to University, but I have played this before
and don't think Univeristy is vital to enjoy it.
You can tell any story you want in this medium sized, versatile world that has everything...all jobs and venues up to Uni. Neighborhoods include a seedy slum, coastal cottages, rolling farmland, lakeside suburbans, stately victorians, and moderns...just to name a few! Plenty of starters and empty lots, too. No CC, no stuff packs, no store stuff. All lots made by ruthless_kk ( or EA)
