Line 223:
** A subversion, in that the thugs in the bar all turn out to be somewhat nice guys with dreams of doing something with their lives besides being thugs.
* ''[[The Spectacular Spider-Man]]'' had one owned by the Shocker, though he left the running of the place to Blackie Drago. It gets burned down in a fight between Spidey and the Molten Man.
*
** One episode had one of these named "The Secret Hideout"... [[Rule of Funny|advertised by huge illuminated signs and neons]].
** Also, the Meat Locker, a club owned by mobster [[The Don|Tony "The Butcher" Vivaldi.]] It's actually a lot nicer than it sounds.
* Subverted in [[Olive the Other Reindeer]]. The bar near the North Pole Olive stops in looking for a ride seems to be populated by criminals, but it turns out they aren't that bad. Well, except for that bunny. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-XNjDKdO3zk They even have a song about it.]
* There was a coffee shop in the ''[[Codename: Kids Next Door]]'' episode "Operation: FLUSH", which looked like a typical Starbucks, except all the customers were villains from the show. The barista even wears a super-villain style mask.
