Its not too bad actually. I have been out the last few Friday nights and ended up Coppers late bar. They seem to be getting a slightly better crowd than Karma or Q (both nightclubs).
They are starting live bands this week on Friday nights, so that may draw more people in. I think they are kicking off at 10.30 - not sure must check their facebook page again.

As for pubs to head earlier, Richard Graces is nice but a litle bit away from town. Gertie Browns across the road from Coppers is a nice spot.
And then you have the usual spots over the far side. The snug, Seans Bar and the Castle Inn(nice pints of bud ever!) They'd be nice and a similar crowd to yourselves.

If your bored there is a whole thread on pubs in Athlone. But stick to any of the above pubs and you'll have a good night.
If you fancy a feed before you go out, there is no shortage of savage restaurants around.
