My bisexual wife and I went to one strip club in Atlanta and had a great time, but we (very recently) live in New York, where everything is expensive, smaller, and seemingly not as good. I've read as many reviews as I can stand and all the couple friendly posts, but it's not clear to me what the VIP rooms are like in New York from a couple's perspective. Do all the standard clubs let the full couple into the room (and have space to do so). Do they charge double for that or the same price?
Luckily, we make way more than we did in Atlanta, but it doesn't appear that spending money necessarily even gets you much in New York (sigh). Where can we go to get good lap dances, and then retire together to a VIP room where she's likely to get a lot of attention?
I go with my wife, but have never gotten a couples lap dance. The last time a dancer asked if we wanted a couples dance, my wife responded: "why the fuck would I want him there". As it was the IR Cabaret her dances were done in full view of the entire bar and now that I think of it my wife had a nicer rack than the woman sucking on her nipples.
First off New York (Manhattan) is not a great strip club city. It is tied with London for the best dungeon city on the planet. It has terrific AMP, it has a very good (though a bit pricey) escort culture. But it has below average strip clubs for a middle class guy. The Manhattan clubs have enough upper class traffic that they can aim for an experience that fits an upperclass customer. So the Manhattan SC scene is centered around highly stressed white collar men, if you deviate in any way you get a worse experience than in many other cities.
In terms of the rooms often there are larger VIP rooms for just a little more money or the same money that a couple can use. You can just ask a host, Vivid for example definitely has that and also aims for female customers (though it is a low-med milage club so you are unlikely to get all the attention you want without paying way too much for it there). Space in general is at a premium this is after all Manhattan, it ain't Tokyo but rents are high. In terms of milage and money, in New York you can get lots of milage for lots of money but at any given price point that's sane it is a often below average money wise and well above average spend wise.
In short, yes you can do this but you'll be spending silly money to do it. I don't know the clubs in Queens, Brooklyn... I think if you are looking for a high milage relaxed experience Jersey is a much better choice, Philadelphia an even better choice.
I tend to go for the higher end places. $20 lap dances where low mileage is the norm, but you can find girls who are more aggressive.
I don't do private rooms anymore because they're too expensive, but I have some experience.
Private rooms/booths generally have enough space that you, your wife, and a dancer should fit comfortably. I've seen private spaces that are cubicles (6' walls with no door), booths with ceiling to floor curtains, and full on rooms with doors. On price: $1000 hour is fairly standard. Half to dancer, half to club. You'll get shaken up for more money - the host will want a tip, a waitress will try to sell you a bottle, and the dancer will push for a tip. You shouldn't have to pay twice, you're renting the room from the club, it shouldn't matter whether it's just you or you and your wife. Dancer shouldn't charge you double, or a premium. If she pulls this hustle, I'm sure you can find another dancer who won't.
Mileage may still be unsatisfactory. How to improve it? If it's a dancer who you don't know and may not see again, you'll need to state what you want, see if that will cost extra, and negotiate. Or you can become a regular and let the mileage ramp that way. Which can be a fun journey, if you're into that, but expensive.
I guess I'd just say go to some clubs, get a dance, ask early on how the VIP rooms work, what she's comfortable with, talk pricing, and ask for a tour. Go back to the main floor and do some more lap dances and gauge if she's worth the expenditure and trying to provide a better experience to get you to buy the private room.
I've heard Rick's VIP rooms are cheaper. Like $600-800 per hour. Dancers are a little less attractive, but they seem warmer, harder working, and eager to please. You may find it a better value. Plus, it has an overall friendlier vibe.
I'll add:
- Rick's has friendly girls, couples friendly atmosphere, the place is hopping early (by 5 pm on Thursdays and Fridays).
- Sapphire, nice club and attractive women but I find the atmosphere there a bit ... icy.
- Scores is a beautiful club with hot women but it doesn't get lively until 9pm.
- VIP Club I think is a bit of a hidden gem. Nice, small, intimate club. This place picks up around 8pm.
