Bottle Service

I'm pretty new when it comes to clubs. Since I don't drink alcohol, I have no idea what it means to "get a bottle" as in "a bottle is $250" or "for $500 you get a bottle" kind of thing. Can anyone explain this to me? I understand getting a table and a server, but does this mean just the service or do I actually get to pick a "bottle" of something... and what would I pick?

Bottle service is typically whatever alcohol and two kinds of mixers as far as I know. I don’t recall what normal drink prices are, but one 750 ml bottle yields about 17 mixed drinks according to google, so I guess you can compare the prices that way to figure out if worth it.
In some clubs bottle service also determines what part of the club you can sit in. But since you seem to club during the day so I don’t think it matters that much?
Also, I love bottle service :) Typically we only get bottle service if there's a special that makes sense (one of the clubs I go to puts bottles they're closing out on special, so at a pretty low price, we get all the benefits of bottle service) or if someone just wants to be a baller for the night. Last time we had bottle service, we were SCing on a Saturday night (basically, my most hated time); one of the guys had just gotten a huge raise, and surprised us by buying bottle service. What we got was a giant booth in the best part of the club, waaaay more strippers hanging around than we deserved, and so much alcohol that we and the strippers didn't even quite finish it all. Bottle service is pretty fun. Unless you get a good special, it's not practical or smart, but if you have the money to blow and you're SCing with buddies rather than sitting in a dark corner like a mushroom (aka the tuscl special), there's some fun benefits.
Feel free to message me about the membership.
Did we ever answer this? Typically, for some set price, you get a bottle(s), table, more responsive service from a bottleservice girl. The prices are tiered, so, maybe $350 buys you the house vodka, $450 buys you Kettle One or Don Julio reposado, $1000 buys you Macallan, etc. You might have several choices at each price range.

Right, the clubs do bottle service because they make even more money per bottle that way. In strip clubs, I do think that when we order bottle service, we do tend to get more attention from strippers. As I mentioned, last time we got this was a typical wall-to-wall sausagefest Saturday night and 1. we could not have gotten a table without bottle service, we would have had to stand, 2. strippers were all over our table in a way that just doesn't happen without bottle service at usual sausagefest hours (maybe nicespice can confirm, bottle service is expensive and gets the strippers attention, either just to hustle free drinks, or because it represents $$$ spent). And bottle service waitresses do provide better service, even in a strip club.
Ironically, on day shift, where you least need bottle service -- because prices are already lower and there's plenty of tables -- is when strip clubs seem to be most likely to have bottle service specials that actually favor bottle service over individual drinks. We always keep an eye out for this and indulge whenever it happens.
In hot dance clubs, bottle service makes more sense. But I imagine very few of us are of clubbing age lol
It better come unopened; I don't like my soft drinks watered down.

The closest I got to that was a manager walking up to me and saying “these guys just dropped $600 just now”, should go talk to them. Since I was tied up with a profitable customer at the time, I didn’t. And I didn’t receive any negative consequences for that.
-> “(2) is not included but girls CHOOSE to spend time with at the table because the alcohol is there”
I think that may be the case for some. But I always drive rather than rideshare, so that doesn’t apply to me.
I do, however, find it a big plus to be able to just start drinking rather than have to wait on the waitress. It can get frustrating sometimes when I already closed the customer on a few dances, but the drinks haven’t arrived yet. (Sometimes it’s out of her control, but other times it’s absolutely in her control.)
->“3) is not included but girls CHOOSE to spend time because those customers are spending “big” money and the girls are hanging out with the big spenders/fun table?”
Yes. The free flowing alcohol and also a collective happy mood, makes for an open wallet. Ideally, I like to appeal to the entire table and then be constantly busy with dances one after the other for the whole table.
The con however, is whether you’re dealing with the (usually younger) “I don’t need to go to the strip club to get laid” bravado of guys too cool for dances.
But this is also assuming we are dealing with normal rates rather than Tuesday $69 bottle special or something, when nearly every table has a bottle anyways.
