  Serves its purpose

  I have not reviewed this place in over a year. It doesn't get many reviews so I thought I would contribute. Stopped by in the early evening. No cover charge if you arrive before 6:00...

  Saturday evening Limits

  Late Saturday afternoon, early evening - depending on how much of a time stickler you are. The bar opens at 2 pm, but dancers don't typically start showing up until 4:30ish, according to the...

  Chill Afternoon

  My company sent me to Des Moines for work and I decided to have some fun by trying out a few clubs while in town. I arrived at the club near opening at...

  Quiet Monday

  Don't judge a book by its cover. Bar as soon as you walk in and cover starts at 7;00. Stage around corner to your right. Regulars fill the bar. Tables were open and all...

  I'm 1 for 2 now, but worth a 3rd visit someday

  Not as good this time around, but would still go back based on past experience. A Saturday night around 11 pm in October. I'm a 55+ white guy. This is a return visit from last...

  Not as bad as I remember

  It's been 3 years since I've reviewed this place. Figured it was time for another review. The road construction out front is finally completed. Unfortunately if you're approaching from the city in Des Moines...

  Words go a long way

  Short: I will return! It was what I was looking for without knowing I was looking for it. (Quick note, this was from a couple months back that I finally decided...

  Nice time

  Visited around 5:30 pm; sign on the door says cover charge after 6 pm. My common beer was about $5, but I don't know exact amount. Got a 10 plus some ones back from...

  Pushing the Sunday evening Limits

  Great day at the ballpark watching the I-Cubs, so capped it with a trip to Outer Limits. Arrived just before 7 pm to four cars in the lot. Didn't pay a cover charge, but...

  First time, not last, at Outer Limits

  After a show downtown, visited The Outer Limits based on the strength of reviews here. I actually tried earlier in the day - they open at 2 - but on entrance, bartender told me...

  Meh, good enough to go again.

  Arrived around 5:30 , maybe 6 or 7 girls working( no California dimes but maybe a Midwest 6?). Most of them were hanging with regulars or back stage. The girls here don’t seem to...

  Might have been more fun if I played pool, though the dancers weren't bad

  Outer Limits was about a 15 minute drive from downtown Des Moines. Much of that was on a highway that made it feel further away out of town. The road the club's on is...

  Cest la vie, old friend. I'll remember the LDK's

  Ok, so I submitted a review for this joint a while ago as a first time visitor. Descriptions of the club are there, and nothing has changed. I have visited the lap dance area,...

  A surprisingly good time.

  After leaving Beach Girls, thought I would try a different club. I am a fan of the strip club dive bar but was a bit warry of prior review. I figured if...

  High value regular's joint

  Stopped in for a quick visit at around 8PM on a Friday. The building is dinky lookin in the middle of nowhere. Parking lot was decently busy, and didn't feel sketchy to park at....

  Worn out gem of a club

  So this club is a dive bar with dancers. I know they make money, but I'm not sure how. I've been here a few times and can be completely ignored. Not sure why...

  Bar with dancers. Not your typical club

  I stopped by on a Monday, early evening. The place is a bar with dancers versus the typical club, which I like. The vibe is more chill. There wer 3 girls working. ...

  Definitely a regulars bar

  Stopped here late in the afternoon. I think the cover was $5 or $10 can't quite remember. Went up to order a drink and wasn't even sitting down and someone says I was "stealing"...

  Monday night not like anyone else's

  Stopped in, late, to find a cozy "dive bar" atmosphere (fine by me), but only 4 dancers working (2 AA (1 slender, fine), 1 or 2 mix?) and but a few, apparent, regular customers....

  Revisiting the Outer Limits while passing through

  The last Friday of July I found myself traveling up I-35 to Minnesota for the first time in a few years and figured Des Moines would be a good stopping place and an opportunity...

  Good place to visit in Cedar Rapids

  Smaller club with about 5 dancers when I visited on Tuesday night. Girls were friendly but not very engaged - they spent most of the time with regulars. Drinks are reasonably priced...

  Nice little strip club/bar

  Went on a Monday night around 10. Paid $4 at the door and bought a $4.50 beer. It's a small place, hole in the wall feel. There about 15-20 customers there, mostly 40+ in...

  Good Little Find

  Outer Limits is a pretty good strip club or at least better than Minx and Big Earls. This is not BYOB like the other two places mentioned. There is a full bar although they...
