For several years all my strip...
For several years all my strip club visits in Chicago were to either Club O in Harvey or Club 390 in Chicago Heights. However, I heard good things about Skybox, just a couple of blocks up Halsted St. from Club O, and decided to check it out last fall. Since then I've been to Skybox a total of three times, always on weeknights around 10:30. This review is a summary of those three visits.
First of all, you can easily avoid paying the cover charge by going to their website -- http://www.skyboxchicago.com -- and having a coupon for free cover emailed to you.
Second, each weeknight there is a 50-cent special on some kind of beer. On Wednesday night, for example, a Heineken costs 50 cents. For that matter, other beers cost $1.50, so the special isn't even that special.
Third, the dancers are an excellent mix of ethnicities -- white, black, Hispanic, and Asian -- and body types, all with natural titties, as I recall. By the second of their two stage dancers ALL of the girls get naked. This combination of alcohol and nudity is rather rare in the world of strip clubs, though it can also be found (to some extent) at Club O and Club 390.
Fourth, the lap dances are very attractively priced at $25 for two topless dances (in a rather public area) or $50 for five nude dances (in a private booth with a curtain). On every visit I have chosen the 5-for-$50 option and have been very satisfied with that choice every time. At one time contact was said to be low, but in my experience the five nude dances in a private booth allow for lots of two-way contact.
In conclusion, I have much praise and no criticism of this club. Highly recommended.
