Worst Strip Club Cities

Cincinnati - hands down the worst

Nashville (and a lot of the other Bible Belt towns)
Orlando
Seattle (for dancers particularly)
Huntsville and Birmingham were stupid to me too.

The city I live in because there are no clubs, have never been any and never will be any.

Cleveland was complete shite.

Lol Cleveland girls look terrible, would never club there @tetradon 🤣

1. Nashville
2. Tallahassee (I don't think there are any)
3. Pensacola-$40 lap dances and no mileage.

Nashville is pretty sad for an up and coming party town. Detroit has pretty poor talent given its supposedly strong reputation. San Francisco may be the next big city barren of good strip clubs; nearly all of them have been closed since March and many are permanently shuttered.

-I’d like to vote Raleigh NC into the top 5 worst !
Where is the thread for “Best Cities “ ?

- NYC was once decent , but Flashdancers relocated and have not been to the others in decades. I was a regular at The VIP club on West 20th Street.
- Queens WAS also decent ,, not anymore I guess.
- agree Orlando was ruined by Disney
- have not tried Nashville
- Denver wasn’t bad last time I was there 4 years ago.

I really don’t know too much first hand, I don’t actively seek these cities out. That’s another thing this site has helped just avoiding the crap. I have clubbed in San Diego, not a fan especially when you got LA right there just drive up. And TJ right below. I’ve been to Nashville a few times I usually just skip clubbing due to the rep. Same for Orlando.

I can’t say the New York scene is the worst not great though, North Jersey you got a lot of extras clubs, Long Island has some too, Manhattan is like Vegas where if you do bring a ton money you can definitely have fun. It’s a lot of clubs in that area and even though I live there and still have not hit them all.

I didn’t like New Orleans at all. Or Memphis. There’s like 2 clubs in Boston and I hear they suck I’ll try to check them out eventually though

I actually had a good time in San Francisco, you just gotta know how to move.

^^ Muddy, I respect you and your opinion, but in San Francisco don't you have to worry about whether you're fucking a pussy or a tranny's loose stretched-out asshole?

@Misterorange no you don't have to worry about that unless you're clubbing in the Castro district in SF.

I'm just not sure if SF will even recover to the 'satisfactory' level it was at before the pandemic. Same for the Rancho Cordova clubs 80 miles north of SF.

NYC is useless unless you enjoy wasting money - and trying to look like a big Wall Street type.

My experience in the Berks County - Reading Pa area has been no fun for an extras monger like me. Why have all nude clubs if no extras are offered? It’s like putting lobster on the buffet - but not allowing customers to eat it. Maybe lobster was a bad example.

The Orlando Fl area offers a decent view for the eyes - but no true filth. It’s sad. But it does reflect the safe Disney-fied area. Getting to those clubs can be expensive - as highway 528 has some very expensive tolls. As a tourist - it poses a challenging decision - to use your singles to pay the toll - or save them for the club and deal with the fines later.

I think the worst strip club city is NYC. I live about 15 minutes away. Yeah, I had a great time there 25 years ago, but now it's ridiculously overpriced and the "hotness" factor has diminished. The "woke" generation with their body positive look-at-my-sexy-cellulite-ridden-ass-and-disgusting-floppy-belly-and-love-it attitude has killed it.

Haha you know what SF can have some of the prettiest women I’ve seen in clubs man. There was no doubt. Check out Gold Club during the day I think that’s Subras regular spot.

I agree that Orlando deserves to be listed on the Worst Strip Club cities, probably a result of the Disney wholesome influence. In contrast, the AMP scene is rocking. No idea what one part of the adult entertainment industry is so terrible and another part is so good.

I think there's a point where anything below a certain line is basically a tie. To me that line is look but don't touch. I'm not looking for a burlesque show. I'm looking to get up close and personal with a hot chick to pass the time. At least I did. I still don't think I've been in a club yet this year.

If I can pay and touch, then it's up to me if I don't want to pay Manhattan prices. A place like Augusta, GA where dancers had to stay on little stages during "private" dances even before the covidverse. Places like that are in the strip club basement on my list.

Boston
RTP ( North Carolina)
Augusta
Orlando
Cleveland
Nashville
Chicago
When traveling to these cities, I don’t even contemplate going out to a SC, either day or night.

Greenville SC. No extras at any of the clubs

Vatican City, Mecca, Jerusalem.

Havana

Mosul, Teheran, Mogadishu

I thought jackslash said the Israeli clubs were ok.

The list of "good cities" is easier as good SC-cities are the exception

The WORST city of all hasn’t been listed yet....

Washington, DC.

Where you cannot get a lap dance.

The clubs are so bad which is why I’ve always assume why the escort scene was/is so strong in DC.

Boston. Two clubs, expensive and gross. There are some good clubs in MA, Foxy, Brockton, for e.g., but not in Boston.

My worst so far are
Washington DC.
Fort Wayne, Indiana
And finally all the scattering of clubs in New York State, west of Rochester.

I haven't been to Cleveland in years, but from what I heard from dancers who moved from there to dance in other cities, the clubs there haven't been decent in at least 7 years.

Washington DC is dreadful, baltimore is acceptable alternative but over an hour away.

Boston is also terrible but providence is a good time and that's over an hour away too

Both those places have to be top 3

Chicago is the worst strip club city I've ever lived in.

Wallanon, the Tel Aviv clubs used to be good, but Israel has cracked down in the last couple years. They've defined lap dancing as prostitution and closed all the clubs.

Agree Chicago any NYC are bad.
Let’s face it, generally, the cooler the city in terms of culture, restaurants, nightlife and other attractions, the less likely there’s a good strip club scene.
The question is whether it’s correlation or causation.

Chicago and Orlando both suck. Lots of clubs, gorgeous women, and only air dances at sky-high prices.

The worst state I've been to is New Mexico. I flew into and stayed in El Paso, TX (pretty good clubs), but my business there was all in southern New Mexico. I did not know of TUSCL then, but I could not find a single club in the areas I went to (Las Cruces, Deming, and Silver City). The lack in Las Cruces was pretty surprising given its size.

"They've defined lap dancing as prostitution and closed all the clubs."

Good thing jackslash is still around to share what he really said. I didn't feel like searching for it lol

This time I think my memory is a little better. Haven't multiple TUSCLers said there are some clubs outside of downtown Chicago that offered plenty of mileage at decent rates? Maybe it's not with girls the majority on the boards would go with, but I might go looking around for the mentions. That was all pre-COVID. Last time I stayed in Chicago I was in the middle of downtown and really busy so didn't do any clubs. But I might've if I'd seen the details on the clubs I'm vaguely remembering now.

There's multiple clubs not far outside of DC that are decent. Showcase Theater is TUSCL acceptable across the board and only 20 minutes North of town. Fuego (if it's still open) and Ebony Inn are closer and have full contact but less of what the more vocal TUSCLers on the boards appreciate in dancers.

But Fuego had tons of Latinas back in the days when I went. I didn't much care for Fuego, but my friends did. Hanging around Texas way more than I ever expected has made me more of a fan of Latinas, so maybe I'd appreciate it more now. Eh, probably not. Sinsaysionals is about same distance, too, if it's still around.

There's another club I can't remember that opened around the corner from Showcase that's supposed to be good, but the address I had was off and I couldn't find it when I drove around after leaving Showcase. I wasn't trying that hard because it was already late, but apparently it's on the backside of the block the GPS takes you to.

^ Wall brings up a good point. There may be some municipal law that makes clubs inside the city limits un-fun but clubs outside the city are a lot of fun. When I took my trip to Detroit, I was told to stay out of the city of Detroit and go to the clubs out near the airport. I think that was good advice.

Warrior totally agree with you, in the case of dc the rules there are very strict which is why you have to go outside. But those have slowly gotten worse year over year. I have been to showcases a ton of times, solid place, not upscale by any means but a good time to be had. It's also a solid 40 minutes north of dc. Tough to Uber. Ebony and fuegos I have also been to, but can't recommend. I just don't feel safe enough going there, although I have never had an issue there are just too many question marks going on there.

As a dancer, I’d imagine the worst places are the ones that take 50% or more of earnings while also having lower income potential on top of it. AND also impose strict rules about certain things like when expected to show up and the like. I one time read a dancer review of a club like that in Cheyenne WY and have forever noped out of trying it there. Not when it’s too close to Denver.

I’d imagine any entire area that is the worst is somewhere more remote where only 1 or 2 places area. Not that all places like that are awful, just that they are the most likely to be able to get away with stuff like that without dancers or customers bailing elsewhere.

Los Angeles....t0rtas and scammers

It may not be on the worst list, but with the demise of Follies Atlanta is no longer on the Best list.

Why does Icey bring up tortas as a negative? Gluten-free diet or something?

A torta is a fugly chick

^So you don’t like fugly chicken sandwiches then? Actually what is a fugly chicken sandwich? I guess I don’t really pay attention to food presentation much. 🤔

I forgot to include Washington DC on my list of horrible strip club cities.

I visited one club (Archibalds I think) - and it you could only watch a dancer dance on a small stage. There was nothing else available. You could tip for the stage performance, or buy her a drink.

I thought I must have just hit a dud, so I tried a club a few blocks away, and it was very similar. The only difference was this other club served food. So you could pay the dancer to sit and eat with you! Woo hoo! Welcome to my version of misery! I get to pay a girl and watch her eat - but I don’t get to fuck her - or get anything other than a lighter wallet!

To change course - I appreciate NiceSpice giving a dancer perspective. She gives useful insights from a different side of the club experience.

I just want to mention that Chick Fil A has some incredibly delicious chicken sandwiches. The NYC area has been late to get this delicious freshness - and I’m making up for lost time. It’s not as greasy as Church’s - not as spicy as Cluck U, it doesn’t drip with oil like Bojangles - but it’s quite good.

Cash - totally agree about Chick Fil A. I love the place and they have continually expanded in Massachusetts over the past few years. That does not suck.

Boston strip clubs however suck badly. Thankfully Providence is less than an hour away, where the clubs do not suck. Actually some of them do suck, but in the correct way...

I think a lot of this depends on what you are used to. If you need VHM ITC in order for a club to be good, then you're going to find a lot of cities to be very disappointing.

I cut my teeth clubbing in Boston and New York, neither of which is HM ITC unless you pay a bloody fortune for a Manhattan CR. I also traveled over the years to many places with similar restrictions. So I had to learn to adapt. Now if a club has an entertaining vibe ITC and there is potential to find OTC action, I'm happy. Over the years I've taken girls out of clubs in 14 states (MA, RI, CT, NY, PA, MD, NC, SC, GA, FL, TX, OH, WI, TN), at least half of which are not known as UHM. This is why NYC and Boston (yee 'ol Glass Slipper can be fun at 2:00 am if a girl has not made her nut for the night) are not in my top 3 all time worst, though things certainly get more expensive in those places.

For me, what makes a club area bad is when conditions merge to heavily dis-favor any kind of fun at remotely reasonable prices (which would still be a lot for most people). As a general matter, if a place is filled with high hustle expensive tourist traps, I'm going to be miserable.

DC is on the top of my list because of both the contact rules and the absurd amount of money floating around those clubs - I'm never more than a spectator. Los Angeles and Vegas are next on my list - absurdly high hustle, bad attitudes and more than I'm willing to pay when I know that I can have fun next week with a much friendlier girl for a fraction of the cost in FL or some flyover state.

When I lived in Louisville, I thought it sucked. The Rustic Frog right across the river in Indiana was OK for a while. For my fix, I used to drive the hour to Lexington and go to Diva's (for the action) or Cowboy's (for the lookers).

"... I just want to mention that Chick Fil A has some incredibly delicious chicken sandwiches. The NYC area has been late to get this delicious freshness ..."

Chick-Fil-A is very-popular in the South - the one near me constantly has a line of a dozen or two of cars in the drive-thru (they have employees outside w/ handheld devices to speed up the drive-thru ordering process).

They are very popular in Atlanta (I think that is their HQ); and supa-popular in Dallas - when I was last in Big-D I went to a Chick-Fil-A that had 3-parallel-lanes for the drivethru and it still wasn't enough as there were a dozen+ cars per lane - crazy.

I don't like it that much. I think raising canes is much better

For me a good club just has to have decent lap dances and potential for itc extras, so that puts Orlando and DC at the very bottom, NYC for weak lap dances and expensive and not guaranteed ITC. Vegas I don’t hate as much as others do, while ITC is super expensive, the lap dances are usually decent.
