Only been open for six months and already starting to go downhill
It's been several months so I figured an update to my last review was in order as no one else has posted anything. The layout is the same and they still don't open until…

Jiminy Cricket, might have been in my pants
Came here on a Saturday night at like 930z Post CoVid. It’s in a commercial area, restaurants, banks, pep boys, safe area. I think there is parking behind but you can’t access from the front…

Fewer chairs, but still typical hit or miss Cricket.
I arrived just before midnight. Upon entering the door guy said a mask was required while not drinking and asked a couple of basic health screening questions. Cover was $5, beers were $4.…

Disappointing visit with only a few unattractive dancers
Having not visited in a while, I decided to see how the Cricket was faring with the massive construction project out front. I suppose business was good since the place was very busy with…

Awesome Evening with a Goddess in Pittsburgh
Be warned this is a city club that is rough around the edges but as with all clubs there can be diamonds in the rough. Amazing time with AA goddess. Cheap drinks $5…

Back to its old self
After several disappointing visits, the Cricket appears to be back to its old self. This evening had a decent number of dancers; a couple blondes, a couple brunettes, and a couple AA dancers. If…

Nothing else to do
We arrived after midnight on a Friday for a $10 cover. The club was starting to die down and there were about 6 girls working and about 3 hanging around after their shift. There is…

Cheap beer and decent dances
I was passing through on a long road trip. I was here last year. Not much has changed. Cover was $10. Drinks were reasonable. $4 for a lager. The girls were mixed ethnicity; black and…

I’ll Be Back
I found this club to really serve its purpose. While the area has other clubs that interest me this felt like a very homey dive bar with strippers.
I noticed the crowd was more blue collar…

Once again
Back to my favorite club. Not crowded nor deserted on a weekday night. About 7-8 girls and an equal number of patrons. Got a beer at the bar and eyed the stage from a distance.…

Hate being ignored
I went in on a Wednesday night around 11pm and paid the $5 cover charge. I think most people are familiar with the set up of this club so I won’t go into detail.…

Laid back goodness
I’ve been twice, Tuesday and Wednesday. Not a ton of dancers - 5 one time 6 the other. However, not a lot of customers either. Easier to spend time with a dancer here…

Be careful with parking
Club was the same as previously reviewed but a word of caution - I've never had a problem in two decades at this club but I heard another patron had their vehicle broken into (window…
