I know the city has a plethora of great restaurants and bars but how are the clubs? Are the prices comparable to Providence and Fall River? New Bedford's nightlife is pretty good for a small city. Gay downtown area is where most of the bars are located and in the past few years, more and more have opened.
The city's strength in terms of nightlife is mostly the bar beer bar type places. Pour Farm and Rose Alley have the biggest selections, but Pier 39, Catwalk, Hibernia, No Problemo and even Pizans a pizza place with a good selection of Tap and bottled beer have great selections as well. There are some more upscale places to drink and relax too particularly Cork and Candleworks with nice atmospheres in historic buildings.
One of New Bedford's biggest strengths at night is late night eating. Pizans is open serving great brick oven pizza by the slice until the early morning hours. Cobblestone's serves breakfast until around 3am, No Problemo fills the Mexican void, and there are now a few food carts on Friday and Saturday.
Again, all of this is just downtown there are plenty of diners in the outskirts and outside the city serving late night food. Clubs aren't really a strength for NB. There are a few downtown, but they're mostly well below high end. Bar is the friendly popular dance club, but it's sort of trashy.
Stardust is over on Union Street and I wouldn't set foot in there. It's tough. Most people head to Providence or Boston for decent clubs just because what does exist in New Bedford is not very nice. Catwalk and a new of the other bars bedford dancing, but not really a "club" atmosphere. These places are always busy on the weekends.

It's probably a little scary at first for anyone who primarily speaks English as almost everyone speaks Portuguese or Spanish. It's also not the most attractive looking area. However, it's a lot of fun and I try to do a night out in this area every so often.
