WTF does this really mean? When filling out review forms, it always asks this. Are there clubs around that don't let couples in? If there is and I am in one without a date, how do I know if they are couples friendly?

I assume it refers to as if there were other couples present and how the environment was (dive; upscale; thuggish; white-collar/professional); etc.

I've seen a few couples at Bogarts. It's a rough crowd. I wouldn't bet against some of the women in the couples in a bar fight. One dancer I knew at Bogarts asked me to take her to La Chambre to check the place out, so I guess we qualified as a couple.

If I see couples in a club, I would say it's couples friendly. Couples have become more common in my favorite, upscale clubs, especially at night.

Couples in the crowd, entertainers that approach and are friendly with couples and a restroom for ladies that is for customers only. Have only seen that a handful of times but, my female accomplice says that is a huge deal as she has had to share bathrooms with coked up drunk dancers more than once. Also, dancers that don't try to charge double for lap dances.

I've wondered that a few times myself. I've always considered it as basically asking "would you consider bringing a girl here with you?" but that's really subjective. As others have mentioned, I've seen couples in some of the shadiest joints I've been in. At the same time, there's some places that are more a club with strippers vs a strip club. Around here, Scarlett's and Elleven come to mind.

I think a lot of people have trouble with the "Topless Dancers" "Nude Dancers" etc options too.

You all bring up good points but the first one that came to mind for me is how the dancers would treat couples. Some dancers hate couples, some love them. I'd imagine there are entire clubs that are stand-offish to couples where as some other embrace it.

At the place I'd describe as the most couples friendly in this area, the strippers LOVE couples. If a couple sits in the front row, they can be virtually guaranteed lots of attention from the girls on stage, including the fact that the female will almost certainly be invited (if not gently pulled) onstage, then stripped to whatever level she's comfortable with. This particular place goes against the grain in that it's a bit seedy, whereas "couples friendly" usually implies (to me, at least) at least mid-range clubs, since presumably couples are on a date and looking for a little naughty thrill, rather than hardcore PLs looking for extras, and so cleanliness and friendliness in the club are important

Every club will have at least a few dancers that enjoy couples, so I always deem "couples friendly" as a more upscale clean club that you wouldn't feel weird bringing a date to.

Id say longall300 got it right also same for sclvr5005. Though some clubs dancer really wont approach a couple. At the current club I work at it seems like me and the oldest dancer there are the only ones that really go for couples. I think the girls tend to be intimidated by the fact that there is another girl and so just don't know how to approach. I always like it when I'm on stage when they walk in cause then I can better judge the girls reaction, if she seems into it or she was just being nice to her boyfriend and humoring him by coming (you get this one a good bit too.), If they seem into it I will greet them then talk to them for a bit. If the girl didn't seem into it then I usually still greet them (I always start by talking to the girl first too!) and may chat for a little bit with them but I do not stay too long (though I usually try to make the girl feel more comfortable through just small normal talk before I leave)

Also I noticed a lot of the times when it comes to couples the girl is making all the decisions, even if the guy is in charge of the money they wont do a dance unless the girl gives the ok.

Phoenix, I think you hit the nail on the head regarding how the girl will make the decisions. I think most guys are happy enough to have their girl go to a strip club to look at other naked ladies with him. Any action is pure gravy.

I get how that's tricky for a lot of dancers, especially those who don't have great personalities or sales skills. And a lot of women don't go for the blonde, fake tits look a lot of guys seem to like from their strippers.

I think this thread nailed all the features that would make a club more couples friendly, although I don't think it has to check every box to be rounded up to "couples friendly".

Couples friendly really just means the female is welcome and dancers will interact with you. It's a place where the woman can come as well to enjoy herself. We wish couples friendly meant we wouldn't get charged double for a single dance but haven't found any place like that yet. Paying $40 for a 3 minute dance sucks.

One club we went to lets you buy a block of time and we worked out a discount and really liked that.

Out of dozens (hundreds?) of times, we have only paid double once or twice. You just need to bring it up before going for the dance and work out the pricing. Plenty of girls have only charged us for a single dance saying: "A dance is a dance" OR we work it out one of two ways: We pay them a 50% premium if we are both going to get involved ($30 not $20) OR we take "turns" with the dancer while the other one watches. Many times that has turned into a three for all anyway once things get heated at which time we supply a nice tip.

If the dancer refuses to negotiate upfront and insists on charging double we just send her away and she can go back to staring at her phone making $0 dollars.

Personally, I've rarely seen couples. Perhaps a time or two in Key West, but other than that, I haven't. Or, perhaps I just didn't see them. Being one that visits in the afternoon, that doesn't surprise me.
