Warsaw at night is a true party town - the city is packed full of restaurants, pubs, and clubs - many open until the wee hours of the morning. It is also surprisingly pretty safe, even at night - as long as you don't wander off to the more "seedy" parts of the city.
What they don't have, however, is a central party area. Clubs are pretty spread out across the city - this essentially means that a night of pub/club crawling will involve more than just a few taxi rides.
In Manila (and in my hometown as well), there is essentially just one crowd of partygoers. Everybody knows everybody else, and people mostly flock to just one club at any given time time - whichever place is "hot" for the month.
I've been to quite a few clubs here in Warsaw, and it certainly is not the same situation. Different "kinds" of people (i.e. one club would have mostly students, another one would have mostly expats in their 50s trying to pick up girls half their age, another one would be full of B-list celebrities, etc.) flock to different kinds of clubs. There's even an Irish pub where the Irish community hangs out in ("Bradley's"), and an Irish pub where the tourists hang out in (aptly called "Irish Pub").
Come to any of these clubs late (like 11pm-12am), and you'll find a mean looking doorman "filtering" out guests. If he doesn't like your face, or how you're dressed, you won't get in. I've seen girls get turned away because they were not "pretty enough." Foreigners can usually get in without a problem - so thats good news for me.
Since women here in Warsaw are generally a good looking bunch (tall, slim, sharp, eastern-european features), the "filtered" girls in certain clubs are just true bombshells. I'm not going to try and describe them, or how its like to get in - you will just have to come here and see for yourself.
To give you a small taste, I compiled a couple of the most popular songs played in the local clubs. Please take note that most of these videos are not safe for work (NSFW). I believe they'd even be illegal on Philippine TV. Local channels, however, show even "stronger" stuff - that's Europe for you I suppose.
