Hi Found this:

Bars: All the main hotels have their Western-style bars, just as popular with Cairenes as with the Western visitors themselves. Which drinking den is fashionable changes monthly, but there are some perennial favourites. Harry's Pub at the Cairo Marriott Hotel in Zamalek is always busy, with its karaoke and ladies' nights. The 40th floor Revolving Restaurant Lounge at the Grand Hyatt, and the Windows on the World bar on the 36th floor of the Ramses Hilton battle it out as the place to have a sundowner with their stunning views over Cairo. Also popular, although lower, is the rooftop Pyramids Bar and Terrace at the Nile Hilton. If looking for something special in Giza, head for the Sultan Bar at the Mena House, a glorious palace hotel with views of the pyramids.

Clubs: In Egypt, a nightclub is a place where you sit down to watch a show while you eat and/or drink. Yet again, the big hotels provide the best options as there are also a good number of seedy joints aimed at parting you from your money. Only go to one if a reliable Egyptian friend recommends it.

If you're after a Western-style nightclub, call it a 'disco' and, again, head for the hotel chains. Jackie's Joint at the Nile Hilton is an upmarket favourite with a dance floor, pool tables, private karaoke rooms, and 1970s and 80s nights, while The Place, next to the Sheraton el Gezirah, offers live music (Egyptian and international) on its top floor terrace (Nile views). Rithmo at the Semiramis Intercontinental is an expensive but trendy spot full of beautiful young women and older men with cigars. Windows on the World, on the 36th floor of the Ramses Hilton is another popular hangout with wonderful cocktails, good food, great views and live music (jazz and pop). Away from the hotels, the Cairo Jazz Club, 197 26th of July Street (website: Cairo Jazz Club) offers a sophisticated mix of live jazz, blues, a DJ and drinks in a dimly lit, smoke-filled environment. Africana, Pyramids Road, Giza, is something very different, a noisy, crowded, energetic if somewhat scruffy place with the music and most of the clientele coming from sub-Saharan Africa.

We have a few members from Cairo, so hopefully they will be along soon to give you the low down.
