A local staple that you should visit atleast once
When you walk up bypass the stripper out front smoking and go in through the apparently optional metal detector (if your a regular it appears you bypass it) pay the 20 bucks cover and your in. The music was loud and hard to have a conversation with the girls but that’s ok. The lights were down low but the accent lighting was great. Seemed to be a hit with the local bikers but they preach no colors. The girls i guess because i was in early were decent but not great and not many to choose from. There were a few different types not just your basic white girls, some chocolate and one Latina. The blonde white girl who doesn’t do stage sets is very pushy to get you into vip but i declined her so i can’t tell you good or bad. I’m not into pushy girls. Let’s talk money since let’s face it, That’s the most important at the end of the day… 20 bucks to get in with the bouncer having his tip cup at the door, drinks were ok 10 bucks for beer that’s all i got. The dances are all in vip the girl told me 200 for 3 dances but the bouncer gave her a dirty look when i handed her the money so i was probably getting hustled so i only gave her a 20$ tip after. There were no open area dances. The stage girls some went topless some didn’t but they had some good tippers. Down to the nitty gritty, it’s a local staple and should be gone to atleast once if you’re ever in the area. The vip area is nice and dark but the cameras are staring directly down on you and the bouncer will sit there watching like a hawk so be discrete. The bar area is more sports bar vibe then strip joint. Over all it’s a good time and should be checked off your list atleast once if you go to Philly.

An unknown legend from youth really is a great institution
Growing up in Philadelphia, Lou Turks was a legend. As teenagers we wanted to go there because it was the only strip club we'd heard about. I moved from Philly as a young adult and never did go there. However, I was in Philly the day after Christmas and stayed at a hotel near the airport. On the way to the hotel, I drove past Lou Turks. I didn't realize where it is. After checking in I drove there around 11PM. Walking in the club, there's a main bar with a stage and pole in the middle. There are a number of tables and a DJ towards the back. On this night, there were about 10 dancers and an equal number of patrons. The atmosphere was quiet. The dancers did two songs each, one dressed and one topless. The dancers also wore nipple tape. Each dancer did their songs and then the tip parade, generally with their breasts recovered. The dancers were a mix of white, black, hispanic and one asian. Most offered private dances for $35 and VIP rooms starting aroung $150 plus tips. One dancer, a tall black woman with sizable real breasts interested me and we did a private. It was nice and she indicated extra would be available in the VIP rooms. I was intrigued but not quite prepared to take that plunge. I don't drink alcohol when I'm driving so a bottle of water was $6.00. Overall I enjoyed myself. i think it would be a great place to watch Philly sports and get some dances. So a youthful fantasy turned out to be okay and I would go back on a night that was not just after a holiday.
Lou Turks is Low Key Near the Philly Airport
On previous visits to this club I had been told that the dancers that came in after 8p were really beautiful, so I decided to check it out in weekend prime time. Hmmm, maybe the PLs have just had an opportunity to drink more and fog up their beer goggles by 8p??? Easy to visit this club from the Philly stadiums or airport, not far from I-95. There are several neighborhood sports bars in the area, and this feels more like a neighborhoody club. There's a small free parking lot, and nearby on-street parking. $10 and a metal detector to get in on a Friday evening. Got a beer, paid with a $20, and got more than 10 $1 back but didn't count. The main bar is to the immediate left. It has a pole in a small central state, and a stageless pole on each side. Most of the time, only the central pole seems to have any activity. Community ($20/song) and private (3/$100) lap dance rooms are to the right. Clean restroom in the middle. There's another bar to the back right, but I've never seen it in use. There were several white dancers, a few black dancers and a few hispanic dancers (but, none of the crazily aggressive Cuban dancers that seem to be taking over the nation's clubs). Most were 6s, maybe a 7 or two in makeup and dark lighting. Tended toward thicc, which has become a body positive way of saying a little too rotund for my tastes. After a dancer does a couple of songs on the central pole there is a tip-walk and time for a brief chat. All the dancers seem very friendly and chill. What the hell? I was here, so I found a nice dancer who I'd feel good giving some money to, and we went to the private 3/$100 room. Paid a guy outside then went into a private room with a comfortable couch, reasonable light, and a wall mirror. The dancer got topless right away, encouraged 2-way touching (but warned to stay out of the vagina), and gave a great grind. Songs seemed a good length, and I thought the price was reasonable. She really seemed like she would be proud of herself if she had been able to get me to honor the LDK. There are cameras and I've never gotten the vibe of any extras going on here despite the apparent privacy of the room. Again, though, it was quality contact, so I found it enjoyable. I collected some digits for an OTC rendezvous, but I won't use them because she's just not my fantasy. It was still early in the night, so I left to try out another Philly club that I enjoy more. If you're in the airport area, I'd say that Lou Turk's is for the person happy to have a beer and chat with some friendly strippers, Oasis is for the person ready to make the next step in debauchery, and Purple Orchid is for those that have crossed the line and are never coming back. As long as the stadium didn't just let out, it's easy to get Cheerleaders or Risque.

Thursday Night Fail at Turk's Place
This was my first time at Turks in many years sine they don't open till 4pm and I'm an early afternoon guy. But had a business dinner nearby so decided to stop in. I got there about 8pm. On entering you go through a metal detector I also got patted down. Cover was $10. The bar is to the left and is a kidney shaped affair with a small stage in the middle. I got a club soda that I believe was $5. There were about 5 PLs at the bar and a couple girls sitting looking at their phones and one girl with a guy. The girls do two songs then come around for the tip walk. I would say that the girls that I saw were meh at best, maybe 5s. The ones that came around were desultory and did not even try to entice me into a LD. Finally a spinner dressed like an astronaut (big white paper helmet and sun glasses) came around and sat down with me. I asked about the LD menu and was told $20 in the common room, $35 in a more private area and $55 nude. The LD area is to the right as you enter the club. There is a desk next to the DJ where a guy times the LDs. The LD area is a round room with a settee in the middle and little banquettes on the walls. I opted for the $20 to start. It was probably the worst LD I've ever had. She kept slapping her ass and bouncing around. Very little touching. I told her that slapping her ass did nothing for me but she continued anyway. Finally the one LD was over. I asked "Pay the guy at the desk?" She said it was $25 and I could pay her. I said it was $20. She shrugged so I paid the guy my $20. I believe her name was Veronica. I was annoyed by the crappy LD and the attempt to rip me off. Definitely LTs is not on my list.
Lou Turks: Closer to the Philadelphia Airport than Turks and Caicos
Was meeting up with a favorite at Cheerleaders and wanted to make sure that I had enough in me to quench her thirst, so I stopped at Lou Turks for a little fluffing. Very convenient to the airport, between the airport and the river near Tinicum. For some reason, I think it's funny that it's a turn off of Route 420. Several neighborhood sports bars in the area, and despite the Lou Turks on the side of the building it would be easy to confuse it for another neighborhood bar. I got there about 6:30 and walked through the metal detector without a cover charge or anybody seeming to notice. Just a few PLs at the bar, and a few bored dancers. It took a moment for my eyes to adjust to the dark, but there's a main bar inside to the left, with a small stage with a pole and additional poles at each end. There's another bar and pole to the back right, but I didn't see that get used. Couch dances to the far right, and VIP rooms to the immediate right. Sat at the bar, there was one dancer swaying with her top pulled to the side on the small stage, and I got a beer for about $7. The dancers were white or latina, mostly tended toward thick, and seemed 4s to a 7. I had been expecting better, but it was early. I caught the eye of a dancer who seemed good enough, and got the lowdown. What she told me: "Regular couch dances $20/song, VIP $100/3 songs with way more privacy, and heavily monitored cameras everywhere so nothing extra was going to happen." What I heard: That I'm never coming back to this club again. She also reassured me that lots of very attractive dancers and lots of PLs would start coming in about 10p and it would get packed. I knew that I wouldn't be there to confirm. Just to TOFTT, I agreed to a $100 VIP. The dancer was nice and got topless right away. I was actually pleasantly surprised by the contact as she grinded well and she encouraged my hands to grab anything that wasn't covered by bikini bottom. It seemed to be a solid 12 minutes. Overall, the bartenders and all the dancers I spoke too seemed chill and friendly. It was a comfortable place. On second thought, I think that I would come back, if all I wanted to do was hang out, have a beer, watch a game on one of the TVs, talk to some nice women, and see some titties. I guess I need to check it out, at least once, in primetime too.

Saturday Evening Visit
Worked on Saturday and went out to a few clubs afterwards for some me time. Lou Turks is usually on my list of places to visit. Best time is later at night as it gets crowded. I prefer to go in earlier but like most clubs sometimes the talent is not there. Basics - Club is in Essington, Delco not far from airport. $10 cover at 7pm and standard metal detector walk thru. Bar to left as you enter with a pole and a small stage in the middle and at the end. There is a second smaller bar and stage, but I have never seen it open. Dance area to the right. Dances are $25 or $35, common area and private. Not many dancers at this time of night and my favorite bartender Bobbie was off for the night. Took a seat close to stage and had a good view of the TV's to watch the baseball game. Dancers - Ladies of all ages, race, shape and sizes. You are in Delco! I have a few favorites there and most were not working. Summer is a tough time. The ladies dance for 2 songs on stage and follow with a dollar parade. A new, younger, very generic dancer came off the stage and sat next to me. For some odd reason her face was painted like a clown? I really had no interest in her but she would not leave. She told me that she likes halloween and usually paints her face as a character. Finally, a familiar dancer came in and I called her over. I guess the other dancer got it and finally moved on. I chatted with Lexi for a few, had a dance and left. Overall, a pretty good night. Im sure I'll be back.

A lot of girls not interested
Parked right in the front. Standard id check and $10 cover. Let’s start of by saying.. ITS COLD AS FUCK INSIDE.. FREEZING. Once you walk in, the main is on the left really big. Two side poles and one main stage in the middle. There were also some tables and another small bar and stage in the back not being used. I’ll just start off by saying the one side of the bar was filled with customers waiting, the other side had minimum 8 to 10 girls sitting or standing at the bar looking bored. So the girls will not approach. Some of the hotter ones will also never do a tip walk lmao. Most were with regulars. Girls: 3-9 (White, Black, Mixed, Brazilian, Dominican, Colombian, Latina, Italian) Ages: 20s to 40s First dance I got was with a petite sexy milf. Very soft and feminine got a few dances with her. It’s $20 or 25$ a song for regular LD and 35$ for VIP which is private. She was super nice and honest, and told me it’s 4 minutes long. So she set a timer every time I wanted to another dance. It was good milage for what could go down. It was toplesss and hands could roam everywhere except kitty. Once I got back to the bar.. there was not a single seat. I finally found a spot, waited about 30 minutes. Then, out of no where a sexy, super fit, short, big ass, textbook nyc Dominicana comes up. Without wasting any time I go straight to the back. Dances were all high milage and involved a lot of cardio. Hand roamed everywhere, a lot of licks and kisses on her end. She was very pretty and easy to talk to. I think I did 4 or 5 songs I can’t remember. The rest of the time was waiting around while girls did not seem interested. I did get a few more dances but nothing to type about since the girls were either hammered and/or obnoxious. LD area was almost always empty when I went back there. At most 2 other people getting dances. You will be breaking your neck when you get a glance at how hot some of the girls are that walk past you. Lol It’s a nice club. With 90% of the girls not interested. I was not offered anything else nor did I get the vibe anything could go down. Probably won’t be back here. But I could see how it’s a nice local spot.

First of more visits to Lou Turks
Visited Lou Turks for the first time ever this weekend. We chose this spot do to its close location to Harrahs where we just left after a rough night of blackjack. We both wanted to get a drink and see a show to take our mind off the bad beats! Unfortunately at 7pm when pulled up we were the ONLY CUSTOMERS THERE! Even though there about 8 cars in parking lot. Not ideal start but they also didnt charge us a cover, so i guess one benefit to being first to the club! There were only 3 girls working the first hour as well. By 8pm there were about 12 other patrons there and things started to get better, with about 6 more dancers arriving too. Drinks were little higher cost then i expected (beer was 6.00 and Jack&coke in a small plastic cup was 9.00) but they were tasty so I had 3 of them. They say they have a kitchen but it doesn't open until 10pm. Though I no interest in food from there! However I must say it ended up being an amazing night because of Hanna (maybe Hannah). She was so personable , fun, sexy, and held great conversation. And her dances in the back were FIRE! The LDs are 35.00 per song and there was mention or advertising for VIP/Champaign Room from DJ or dancer, so I believe that is all they offer. However the LD room was big and spacious with a loveseat and actual door that closed. Hanna stated no extras upfront so I didn't know what to expect but I was in a trance with eyes, smile, and had to see if she was playing koy. She kept it relatively fun in the back but nothing I would deem as extras so she was serious about that. However she still had me so turned on from her moves and eye locking flirtation that I was not mad I stayed for 2 more songs! I wish we stayed longer, i think it may have gotten hotter if we did round two a little later, but I was out voted to take the party on to another club. If I could go back next weekend I would. I miss Hanna already!
