Going to nightclubs is one of the best ways to meet Indonesian girls. It is a bit more challenging that online dating because you need to know what are the best venues and the best days to be successful. You must also be careful to differentiate between the "normal" girls, the prostitutes, and the professional girlfriends. The latter category are all the ladies who make a living from having one or several boyfriends. Depending on what you are looking for, they can be either a great target or something to avoid.
Wednesday is the absolute best day for partying in Jakarta. It is cheaper, less crowded, and many nightclubs have ladies night. This means the percentage of good girls will be higher than usual. Also, you have less competition from other guys, as there are less of those tourists/travelers who come for the weekend from Singapore/Kuala Lumpur looking for one-night-stands.
For the best venues, I'm ranking below the 8 nightclubs with the prettiest and hottest girls in Jakarta. I added some information such as the % of prostitutes, your chances of picking up a girl there, and the kind of clients (male and female) it attracts. It's not scientific, only an estimate based on my personal experience. I didn't mention the price for each nightclub because they are all in the same category: Expensive.
I took the photos on the Instagram account of each venues. It was not easy to find pretty girls as most of them are drunk and they look messy. If you are on a picture and want it removed just email me thibaud@jakarta100bars.com.
