The Bronze 

The Bronze is the awesome club where you and all your cool friends plan to hang out over the weekend, only it isn't really called "The Bronze". You call it that instead of referring to the location by its actual name so you don’t have to worry about tag-a-longs
Clara: Hey are you coming to Everett's tomorrow night?

Molly: Shush! Call it The Bronze. I don’t want freaks following us there
