Medusa’s Lair Reviews

Was my second time in Pittsburgh in the last few months. First time we did the downtown clubs but they weren't our thing I.e ladies were in ballroom gowns etc... This time found the cricket lounge after a Pirates game. Totally different vibe. Much more casual and layer back. It...

My first time in a long time visiting Cricket Lounge. I met a new dancer (to me at least) named Kayla Marie (or something like that - it was hard to hear with some of the music). She has a hot body but when I saw her dance...

I've had several visits since my last review but try to avoid reviewing just for the sake of reviewing and the associated VIP membership. I've covered the standard weekend visit and the occasional "unicorn" weekend visit in prior reviews. This visit warranted letting others know: avoid Monday nights....

I've been here about 5-6 times since my last review in February. The main reason I come here is I moved and now live not too far away, so it's convenient. Two of the times I was here, including most recently on Labor Day, there was only one...

Dropping another review because this visit warranted up-rating the place after the last few visits were bombs. Not surprisingly, the dancers can make or break a visit and this visit, a pair of sisters from the south (M & M) made it a great time. Both are new to...

I was back here for the second time in a month. Went on a weekend and was a little surprised to see very few patrons. Maybe about 5 guys, none below 60. About 4-5 dancers initially, with one on the stage and others sitting with PLs chatting at the bar....

I traveling with nothing to do in the evening so I was there when this place opened and I was there when they lock the doors. They open about 8p and dancers start at 9p. They get full nude which I love and I found myself staring at these...

I've been to this club numerous times. It was better before the original owner died and is now under new management. Since the new management has arrived, it seemed like they were raising their prices on a continual basis. Drink prices started at $5 and then eventually...

This was my first time at a strip club. But I'll be going back for more.

It is located right next to my regular hair salon, so I had always meant to check it out. Very non-descript exterior and the interior is not very different. Still cleaner and less divey...

First visit here in about 10 years. While memories fade, I would say this place has not changed much in how it looks. On a mid week night and bad weather, very few patrons and only 4 girls dancing while I was there (from about 9 to 11:30). I chatted...

I moved to Pittsburgh recently and was surprised smoking was still allowed indoors. The Saturday night I was there was pretty busy, and my eyes were burning before long. It's kind of tucked behind a gas station, so I was glad I'd taken an Uber there instead of driving. The...

This was my first time visit since the old owner died a year or so ago. The cover is now $10 instead of $5. If I'm not mistaken, the beers were still about $4. The layout is the same, I didn't notice any changes. The selection...

The Cricket got their liquor license back, so they are back to a $10 cover, a regular cash bar, and are supposedly open 6 nights a week again. The club has a new website but it isn't very good; not sure why you would need a reservation to go...

I had been to the Cricket a number of times when I was younger, but haven't been back in over 5 years. It's definitely a different place now. As most of the reviewers below have pointed out, it now has a $25 cover for an open bar. ...

I thought I'd try another round here and wasn't disappointed in the lsp dances. Lots of roaming without any bouncer intervening. Girls arent a quality but friendly enough at the bar. Only gripe was the bartendet Jordan is tough to get a drink from and never smiles....

It's been a year or so since I've been there and I heard the $25 cover was an open bar. Nice money spent since I was there abut 4 hours I came out ahead. Plus I met 2 of the Dancers. Sweet young 18 year old with great breasts and...

Another weekend visit saw the Cricket less busy than last time but still doing decent business. Dancer quality was up this visit and there was enough variety that anyone should have been able to find a girl to their liking. We had two early 20s dancers join us and...

Cricket is back open and a bit different now. They have instituted a $25 dollar cover to enter, but now it includes beer and well drinks. They had some trouble with the liquor license and used this as a work around. Otherwise this place has the same seedy feel it...

I wasn't going to review the Cricket again, but this visit was a very different experience than I've had there ever before. First, it was packed. Apparently there was some sort of wedding/bachelor party that arrived ahead of us, as well as a birthday group. I have...

Heard they had reopened after the death of the previous owner, so we went down to check it out. There is currently a $25 cover but beer and well drinks are free all night. Our guess is PA's arcane liquor laws are in play and they need to...

They've finally reopened (under new management), and the Cricket is a great place to head. $25 cover, but DRINKS ARE FREE. Surprisingly good liquor selection, plus the usual selection of domestic beers.

Good selection of dancers, many of whom are more than willing to just hang out and not pressure too...

Stopped in on a Saturday night to see what was happening. At 9pm, there were only two dancers! Luckily, one was a very attractive thin blonde. The other was a heavier black girl. Both were friendly but there was not much stage show. No one...

Cricket is located not far from the Pitt and CMU campuses. Parking is on the street. walk in straight to the bar. Drink prices are average - $5 for jack and coke.

The stage is beyond the bar and has 2 poles and a ring...

Stopped in with a buddy again to see what was happening. Like our last visit, there were only a handful of dancers working and a few customers. Weeknight dancers seem to either hide in the back or sit with regulars. Since no one asked, we did not...

Ahh, the cricket. Used to come here many years ago when I lived in Pittsburgh. That was a long time ago, and this club has changed a bit since then. They remodeled it since I was here more than 10 years ago, which is good. Now...
