Mid-day at The Venue
After reading a couple of positive reviews, I decided to check out The Venue. It’s been quite some time since I last visited, probably pre-pandemic. This stop was early…

Enjoyable Return to an Old Haunt
I hadn't been to this place in a several years, so it was quite different than I remember. I arrived at about 2:30 in the afternoon. There is a center stage straight ahead…

Sunday at the Venue
Had some free time Sunday afternoon. It had been awhile since I stopped by the Venue (I usually stop across the street at 205) so I figured I'd check in as I've heard great…

Better than usual here
Stopped by in the mid afternoon, parking lot looked busy. Was pleasantly surprised that it was a little mellower than other recent times, music wasn't as bashingly loud and obnoxious as I have come to…

A Disappointing Visit
I headed out on a recent weekday afternoon with the anticipation of spending 30 minutes with a “strip club” dancer friend. I first wanted to do a little hunting, or fishing, or shopping, or whatever…

Continuing my New Year's Resolution of visiting different clubs. Read many good things about this club, figure I give it at try.
Swung by the club at around 3pm, and it was PACKED, parking lot…

Surprisingly good time
Hadn't been here since it rebranded from whatever it was before. Seems to have changed a good bit, or maybe I was just really drunk the last time I came in. Sizeable main stage right…

Friendly and Cute Dancers
I went in on a Saturday morning to kill some time before an appointment. The club was mostly empty, with about 4 dancers and 5 other guys. Grabbed a beer from the bartender and sat…

Memorable
After reading Artcollege’s recent review, it prompted me to make a last minute decision and head to this club. I am not purposely going to put an exact day because I am going to get…

Nice touch
Visited early afternoon on a weekday. There were maybe 10 customers, 8 dancers (though I may be off a bit). No valet, no cover, no ID scan.
The location is convenient to I-205, and not far…

It was ok
My first visit to Venue, and it didn’t seem much different than the previous club Mystic.
Exterior of the building was modern and attractive (used to be a Hooters) and the parking lot was fairly large…

Expensive Day
I had a window of opportunity come up at the last second and I headed out to hit a club or two (ended up at four). I generally like to have a “plan b” (a…

A Fun Way To Start A Day
It has been a few months since I have made a stop at The Venue and decided to check it out and glad I did. I had a favorite dancer here that has dropped off…

Disappointing Saturday Afternoon
I hadn't been to the Venue in a few months, and after checking their online schedule and seeing two dancers that were recommended to me slated for Saturday afternoon, I thought it was time to…

Friday afternoon fun
Continuing my tour of Portland strip clubs. This place was really happening for a 3pm on a Friday. There were something like 12 to 15 dancers working. The mix was about 50%…

After a long time away, I don't feel like I've been missing much at The Venue
It's been a while since I've been back to strip clubs, and I decided to pop into The Venue to see if I would enjoy myself there as much as I did a few years…

A Fun Surprise
It has been a few months since I have reviewed The Venue, but I am usually here a couple times a month. This time, it happened by chance, since I was stood up by a…

2nd visit and 3rd dance are the charm
The first time I tried this club it was a bust but today it was a great experience and I left happy.
Visit 1 was an evening a few months ago and there were fewer ladies,…

Ok Venue
I was in the area, so I decided to stop by Venue on a recent Friday evening. I arrived around 6. There was no cover, but the bouncer gave me a pat down. I did…

Good variety weekday afternoon
I visited just after lunch time on a weekday afternoon, and The Venue was a little busier than I expected--but that means not very busy. Maybe 10 customers, some finishing their lunches. Most nursing beers.…

Worth the trip
I was tipped off of this place and a special lady that works here from a member on here. After having a few disappointing visits lately at Tommy's and Desire I was able to visit…

The rack is back!
One of my least favorite things about step clubs is the location. I always feel like my car is going to be gone once I finish my fun in the VIP. The Venue feels like…

I reached out to a dancer I have gotten to know this past year or so and found out she was dancing at The Venue this last Saturday starting at 1 PM. I told her…
