Friday"s activities will, I strongly suspect, bear little or no relation to Poker.

It pays to think ahead.
Basic Plan #1 - Friday - Reconnaissance is key
Food
Meat and plenty of it. I"m think of a restaurant I"ve heard of (doing some research) called Tobago. A steakhouse I"m advised (at least by TripAdvisor).
Nothing like a good stuffed stomach to set you up for a night"s...ahem...entertainment. About a 10-15 minute walk (I think) from the Excelsior at Josep Togores, 10, 17310 Lloret de Mar, Spain for them"s that might want to map it.
It"s also pretty central for Lloret for those who aren"t at the "APAT Excelsior Crash Pad".
Drink
A short (I sincerely hope) waddle to Gerry"s Bar for a session. About halfway between Tobago and the Excelsior (map it if you must).
Other Entertainment
Interestingly...or not, there does not seem to be much on the interwebz about entertainment for "gentlemen" in Lloret de Mar. This may be because of the wealth of discos/nightclubs that abound where the pretty young things will gather in the high season.
Off season...I have no idea. The closest I can find...and I"ve strained a wrist and ruined my eyesight looking (;D) is the Aztek which (rumour has it) striptease & wet t-shirt nights. I can"t find too much on this anyway.
Whatever, I"m way to old for that nightclubbing/disco nonsense...unlike some (cough) like Des & Tighty.
Frankly...after Gerry"s I"ll wend my way back to the Excelsior..if I happen to stumble into the odd hostelry on the way..so be it.
Of course...the best laid plans and all that...but that"s what I"m doing...if you choose something different...I hope to pass you in the street.

See I told you the appointment was stellar - Now that is a good plan
Paulie_D:
Check out the links below if you need some more information.
A couple of caveats:
1. The web site design is eye-bleedingly ancient/retro
2. Despite this it would appear that it is up to date...so that"s good.
3. Very image intensive so not necessarily good on a phone.
4. The image upside is that you know what things will look like before you get there.
5. No addresses given but there is a map if you look around.
Anyway...here we go...
1. Lloret Pub Guide
2. Lloret Club/Disco Guide
3. Lloret Restaurant Guide
4. Lloret Blog that ties it all together.
