Chicagoland Roundup (PT. 1)

I like this section of the site. I like that this is a place you can come to get a one stop shop overview of different cities and locales.  I’d like to add to that with my take on the Chicago strip club market.  Chicago has gotten a bad rap about it’s strip clubs or lack thereof over the last decade or so.  And while some of that criticism is well placed there are ways to enjoy yourself in Chicago. But it takes a loose definition of Chicago to do that.  In this instance I’m going to include all of Chicagoland, as well as Northern Indiana.  While Chicago proper is known as a no touch/air dance kind of city your mileage can definitely increase as you go North, South and West of the city limits. 
 
The first stop in any tour of Chicago should be Industrial Strip in Hammond, In.  I know it seems strange to leave the state the moment you’ve arrived but IS (as it’s known) is the most consistently enjoyable club in the Chicago area.  The club itself is nondescript from the outside.  Inside there are several stages and one small bar (no alcohol though).  Dances are held in the back in curtained rooms. There is a VIP room available but from my experience it wouldn’t be worth any extra upcharge.  Dancers are generally cute.  Of course there’s a wide variety of ladies available.  I’ve always been able to find one that suits my tastes (tall, thin, brunette).  Dances are full contact and can get completely nude.  The club is not know as a place to get extras but the lapdances should be enough for any red blooded American male. 
 
In order of quality the next stop should be Polekatz on the southwest side of Chicago in a suburb called Bridgeview.  Polekatz may well be the most elegant high end club on my list.  It’s recently be redesigned and improved.  While it has the feel of a classy gentlemen’s club I’ve found that the mileage is more akin to a more raunchy club. You can get lucky here with the right girl (and by lucky I mean full grind, mutual hands on grope).  People complain about the price of admission, drinks and valet but I for one don’t think any of the charges are out of line 
 
Third stop is All Stars Gentlemen’s Club in Northlake.  This place is a dump on the outside. It literally looks like it may fall over.  But inside it’s nicely appointed and decorated. There’s one stage and one bar.  There are very small lapdance rooms to the left of the club.  These dances are pricier than either IS or Polekatz but there are discounts during happy hour.  I’m not sure if there is an additional VIP room at All Stars.  Dances here range from air to full grind.  Quality of girls can be an issue.  Still it’s a nice place with potential mileage upside. 
 
If you really must stay in the Chicago limits than the Admiral Theater is your best bet.  This is more of a gown club known for the number and quality of dancers.  But dances are routinely only air.  Still there’s always the hope that you can find the right dancer and spend the right amount of money and maybe get a good dance.  This club is pricier than the others on the list and is probably just a s far a drive from Downtown (20-30 minutes). If you are a fan of old school strip clubs or flapper era architecture than this might be worth a look see. 
 
One other club in Chicago that I don’t recommend is VIP’s. This is located near the center of the city but is really lame. Lots of  fake women, fake guys and fake drinks.  I really can’t think of anything redeeming to say about this joint.

Super read.  I visited Chicago with my wife back in July.  I wondered about SC's in Chicago but since she was along and no opportunitiies to get away I did not visit any SC's there.  Hate to hear Chicago proper is air dance / no touch as I would have been super pissed in such a club.  Houston is two way contact and anything less would be a disappointment to me.
