Didn’t know about this website when I was in the hobby years ago but have lived vicariously through it for awhile.

Needs dancers ASAP
This is a place I normally hit up first when driving up to Akron. But man oh man they are struggling to get girls working there it seems. Have had several times where…

milf bartender and one dancer
The bar inundated emits the dive bar vibe. You enter from a side door from a gravel parking lot. When I entered there was only one old guy sitting at the end of the bar.…

Bad Again
I haven't been in this place for quite some time. The last time wasn't too memorable, no dancers. no patrons, just a decent looking blonde bartender with a piss poor attitude.
This time…

Francois hasn't changef
Thought I would check out Francois's again. Not much has changed. Older, lightly run down with cheap beer (bud light $3). There were 4 girls and about 8 customers. Was there on a Tuesday evening…

Hog Heaven
I started my afternoon in Norton out at the Lucky Corner (see review). From there, I stopped at Desiree's hoping to see someone new or at least relax. Instead, they had one dancer on shift…

Better This Time
This is a review of two recent visits and I'm happy to say things are better than my previous written review here. It was a more relaxed atmosphere and the girls much more attractive than…

Decent place
Went on a saturday night. There were about 15 or so customers and maybe 5 dancers. Drinks were well priced, i think a bottle of bud was $3. Only two of the dancers made there…

Stopped in to find one of my old favorites. She always has been very nice to me and has a very nice body. Not sure how long she has been here but she will definitely…

The Beef Is Here
Stopped in after not being here for some time to see what's changed. The bar is basically the same, being clean with the music not so loud to make conversation difficult. Beer was 3.50 a…

I really don't know why I bother.
I stooped in on a sunny afternoon. Needed to kill some time. I never really had a great experience here and this time was no exception. Two dancers one was not bad looking from the…

I would go back more if I were closer.
I had a task to perform in Copley, so this was my best chance to check out Francois without driving just to see the club. There were two dancers there. The one told…

Pool was good...
Stopped here after an uneventful time at Desiree's just up the road. It was another waste of time, thankfully the pool table was open. Only 1 dancer and she easily outweighed me which is a…

Dive Bar feel but friendly
Francois is a little bit out of the way from Akron, it's near all the factories there in Barberton. A cozy two floor tavern though from what I remember upstairs was just bathrooms. There…

Nothing special but save the drive into Akron
Francois' Lounge physically resembles your neighborhood bar much more than a strip club. The bar along the east side of the building has three televisions which generally show sports channels. A tiny dancer…

Worth a visit
I stopped by on a Tuesday afternoon while on business in the area. As others have said, it's a small place but neat. I sat at the bar and ordered a beer. They were about…

Alexis the ROB
The madness around Akron continues. Because I'm posting this review so soon after my previous one, I won't get TUSCL VIP credit, but that's ok since I think it's more important that I put out…

Finally made it back to this club after waiting a year. It was around 7 on a Friday, and when I walked in the bar area was nearly full. I ordered a drink, and the…
