If it's a music club, how about "Sharp's" ("♯'s")?

plurals can't have apostrophes but since you
did
say "out loud", I guess this isn't a trick question.

@
hosh
In this case "Hashes" and "Hash's" would be the same answer since they sound the same when said out loud.
And there is a correct answer. I am referring to a real club in Houston, and what people called it in real life.

Well, there are actually two correct answers. There is the official name, there is what older people call it, and there is what younger people call it.

It is more than a club. Many live acts played there such as Siouxsie & The Banshees, Ministry, Bjork, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Grace Jones, Nine Inch Nails, The Cure and many many more.

I like some of your suggestions. But I would imagine them being used at other types of establishments.
TicTacToe's would be a honky-tonk or dance hall that plays country music where you could do the do-si-do while square dancing.
Sharp's ("♯'s") would make a great jazz club.
Pounds would be a topless bar or a strip club.
