Lido
This club is in a large, well lit parking lot on the main drag, A1A, running through Cocoa Beach, so no safety concerns going in. The building is not fancy but looks well maintained.
There was no one behind the doorman counter when I walked in about 6:00 pm. The inside is also nothing fancy but well maintained. This is a mid-tier club—not a dive but not upscale club, either. There is a large bar attached to the right wall as soon as you walk in that takes up the middle part of the club and divides it up into basically three areas.
There is small short section of bar just inside the door that is kind of a quiet area that most people seem to avoid because you can’t see the stage area. To the left is a long section of bar that faces the stage area to the right. Behind this section of bar is the non-private private dance area that consists of a large cubby with a large open door so everyone in the club can easily see what is happening inside. The bar then wraps around on the other side close to the stage where there is a seating area and couches and bottle service areas along the wall.
I was there early on a Sunday evening and there was a pretty decent crowd, mostly blue collar types. A beer at the bar was $4 or $5, I can’t remember exactly, but within the norm for strip clubs. The barmaid was friendly and efficient. Overall, the place looked like a decent, mid-tire club.
Now for the bad part: the dancers. There were maybe 6 or 7 working the floor when I walked in, mostly white, one AA, and a couple of Latinas, mostly in the 3 to 5 range. There was a curvy blonde dancing on stage when I walked in that I would rate a 7, but she was tied up with one customer for the whole of my short visit. The rest looked either anorexic, overweight, grandmotherly, or some combination thereof. A couple stopped by and asked for private dances in the unprivate room. I believe the quoted price was $20, but I wasn’t interested.
I drank one beer and as I was preparing to leave I saw two somewhat better looking girls come in, change into working gear, and hit the floor. One was a MILF type with fake tits and a thickish Latina, may 6ish or 7ish types. I didn’t stick around as I had other sights to see. My early evening visit was a bust, but if girls on par with the two recent arrivals continued to trickle in, the later evening shift undoubtedly would have been much better.
