Billy Deans is overhated and underrated
Billy Deans gets a lot of hate, but I have found it to be worth the price. It's only open 3 days a week, which sucks, but what can you do, it might be some zoning thing The laws on the books in Nassau say the girls need to wear pasties, but in my experience the past few years this has fallen to the wayside, which I have no complaints about. They wear button up dress shirts when not dancing, and white thongs (sometimes they don't wear the shirts when not dancing either). Most are cool with touching as long as you're tipping, and there's a good racial mix, none overwhelming the others. Most are either thick in a good way or more on the thin side, and most have tats, but that's how it is nowadays. There are seats along the stage (3 poles I think) as well as tables and benches where some of the girls will sit if they're not dancing The girls tend to be friendly and flirty, and while a few have been pushy (be it for money or drinks), most are cool and enjoyable. Dances are $30 a song (or at least were when I was there), and VIP is $150. Girls have told me there are cameras in the booths and the VIP, so don't expect extras. Or maybe I just wasn't their type lol. Bar is good with singles, I never had an issue with it. Most if not all girls expect a tip for a dance, but at the same time most are willing to let you touch so it's a tradeoff I was willing to make. Plus, that's how most clubs are now anyway The place is small, it's located in a strip mall, but that never bothered me much. The booths are on the far wall and VIP is in the basement. The bathrooms are by the booths, and no doors, so poop at home. The owner and namesake runs the bar, he's a friendly dude. They have a 2 drink minimum, but enforcement is inconsistent in my experience. I don't drink alcohol, so I can't be of much help there, but from what I saw it's pretty standard, high teens or $20 plus for a drink. Water was around $10 I think. There's sometimes a DJ, sometimes not. Usually 2 bouncers, one by the door for cover and ID's, one by the booths to watch the place. It's also located across the street from a bank, which is both helpful and dangerous Overall, I think Billy Dean's is a good place, especially since it's on Long Island and has fair pricing. Sure, it's small, but dances are cheap and most of the girls are friendly and willing. No, it's no Larry Flynt's, but for being in a strip mall in the burbs, it gets the job done. You get topless women in thongs, most of whom allow touching, and it's not too busy on Thursdays if you want to avoid crowds or have a better ratio of customers to dancers. I recommend it, especially if it's your first time at a strip club. Good way to ease into it before going to the bigger clubs in Manhattan

Friday Night Review
Went here within the last month or so, after midnight. They're only open Thursday Saturdays 10PM-4 AM, I guess due to them being in a residential shopping plaza in the middle of Bellmore lol. You'd otherwise have no idea a place like this was still around Nassau county lol. Anyway, stopped by after a dinner out a little after midnight, decent crowd maybe like 15-20 other people besides the dancers. All nice enough and friendly. Few rowdies came in after a Knicks game but otherwise good crowd. I estimate 7 dancers but there could've been as many as 10 throughout the night. $20 at the door, 2 drink minimum (I've never seen that enforced lol just grab beer and nurse and you should be fine). Drinks are pricey though I think a Modelo was over $10. Liquor more. Girls were overall nice, 1 was worse than the rest but one bad apple didn't spoil the rest of the bunch. There's bar seating when you walk in and then there's a dance floor with an elevated runway stage with cushioned seats you pull up to the stage, cupholders are a nice touch too lol. There's couch and bar seating available in that area too. Dances were nice, tipped accordingly. Got friendly enough with one of the girls, a latina I forget her name though my apologies. $30 for 4 min dances $60 for 8 min, there's VIP dances downstairs available for $250/30 min I think but I didn't take that plunge. Did an 8 min dance with her in the booth and was very fun, she climbed up on my lap and gave a good dance and did some grinding and let some touching going on and light neck kissing. Was fun enough I did a 4 min dance before I left. Would definitely see her again. Overall I'd say I spent $175ish that night, cover charge, couple of beers, some tipping at the stage, the 8 and 4 min dance fees and a tip to her at the end. It's a fun cheaper alternative to NYC or some of the bigger clubs, but don't go in expecting more than that. Not sure about extras didn't inquire, but this place scratches the itch if you so desire a night out around some dancers.

Honestly underrated
Club is located in a small strip mall at a somewhat busy intersection, nice area but not very discrete. Very dim outside and you might not even notice it/think it's closed if you didn't know it's there. The other reviews are accurate, it's not for anything extra as far as I know (more below) but if you're looking for a place to have a couple drinks and some decent milage dances it's a good spot. Cover was $20, walked to the bathroom and as other reviews stated, no door (curtain that barely covers anything) on the bathroom. Bartender, whose the owner, has full view of the shitter. Came out and grabbed a $9 beer and sat down on a couch around the stage to check out the talent. Nine dancers, 6 white, an AA, Brazilian, and a latina. A first day on the job dancer sat next to me, nervous college girl, and learned that the club regularly hires women at the local colleges. After talking for a little bit and seeing an employee guide her on stage because she was pretty clueless, gave her a good first tip and sent her on her way. All but one of the white dancer, the Brazilian, and AA were college age girls with fantastic bodies, and was surprised how pretty their lineup was. However, I didn't get the vibe any of them are looking to do any extras as expected, they're just trying to make a few bucks in tips and dances. The older girls, and by older they're 25-35, may be a different story. The lap dances are private in curtain booths $30, and there's a VIP room downstairs which I noticed some of the older dances take patrons into, unaware of price or the menu if there even is one. There are cams in the booths. I grabbed a couple dances with the AA woman, tall with blonde highlights. Two way contact, stickshifting, and even eluded to OTC. She insisted and pushed hard for an LDK. Was not expecting that at all. I'll end up going back, was a better experience than any of the clubs I've visited here in Brooklyn/Queens/Nassau but that's not really saying much.

Billy Deans is a solid club for what it is
I have been to Billy Dean's more than once, always on Thursdays. It is only open Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, which is a bit annoying, but I have always had a good time there The prices are fair. Drinks are pricey, but that is to be expected at a strip club. Private dances are $30 for a few songs, and VIP are $200 for half an hour IIRC. The girls have told me there are cameras in the booths and VIP area, so most won't do extras there, but some will if you pay enough (one got fully naked and let me touch but not finger her pussy for $150 for example). As long as you tip in singles where they're dancing they seem happy The girls are pretty good across the board. Most have tats (as to be expected) but most also don't have fake tits or asses, which is how I prefer them. There is a good representation of races (black, white, latina, etc), and most will let you touch them as they dance as long as you tip and aren't an asshole. I think the law is that they're supposed to wear pasties, but almost none of them do. All wear thongs, few will take them off in private dances unless you tip *well*. Few are too pushy about money, at least in my experience. They ask for tips but I've only had a few get pushy about it. Things could be different on weekends of course, but on Thursdays this has been my experience It is a small place, being in a strip mall, but they make good use of the room that they have. Manager and bar tender are friendly and will usually give you advice on which girls are fun if, again, you aren't an asshole. Bouncers are usually quiet and stationary, but I've seen them toss guys who cross lines. So, tip and behave well and you should have no problems here! Overall I like Billy Deans. It's not NYC club but it is a good time. Girls aren't uptight and it doesn't get as crowded, plus the prices for dances are pretty good, even compared to other clubs in Long Island. 8/10, would recommend

I'm going to go back more often now, especially to see her
I last reviewed this place December 8, 2019. I went a couple times since then, but then covid hit this country and the state closed all the bars for a year and a half. There was a new dancer I liked but she was out of commission for several weeks because she had a strange case of the flu. This was months before the first case of covid in the US was diagnosed. So last night I went back for the first time since covid. It was a Friday night from10:30 till 2am. I could just about write the same review, things are mostly the same. But there are a few changes worth noting. They installed a curtain in the men's room entrance, so it blocks most of the view from outside. The girls don't wear pasties anymore so the only thing they wear when dancing are the g-string and any accessories they want (ie. boots). They did some minor redecoration with the walls and couches around the stage. The private booth couch dances are $30 for 4 minutes now {instead of 6 like in the past). But the biggest improvement is that the quality of entertainers has gone way up. 8's and 9's and maybe a 10 or two. They were local girls, fit and naturals, and personable. It was a mixture of WOC, Latina, and white. 9 girls were working, although one of them said they usually have 12. They have 3 on stage at a time for 15-minute sets. There were 15-20 customers there that night. There are two or three large rooms in the basement for VIP dances ($200 for half hour which includes a free drink). After they deliver your drink, nobody bothers you. The rooms are big enough to have a small bachelor party. To cover the basics, there's decent parking in the strip mall in a good neighborhood, it's only open Thurs, Fri, Sat from 10pm till 4am or thereabouts. Billy, the owner, is the bartender. A Corona beer is $10. A big bouncer collects the $20 cover. I think they have a DJ but the music isn't too loud. There's another guy who collects the money for the private dances. The bar is on one side of the room, the stage on the other. The stage is narrow but long with a pole on each end. There are chairs on each side of the stage so customers can get up close, so close they need to make sure the dancers don't kick their drink. There's not much pole action since they'd kick the customers in the face. Most of the dancers just wiggle around on the stage so they can get tips in their g-strings. Some get lots of tips. This is your basic small local strip club but the vibe is good, and the girls are attractive. All the frills they had in the past are gone (shot girls, mud wrestling, girl boxing matches, Monday night football specials, etc.). All the girls wear the same outfit for that night. There are some tv's behind the bar showing sports. They actively promote the club on social media.
The Ol' Dusty Trail
Look man, plain and simple - if you're inclined towards strip clubs in strip malls, you're going to dig on Billy Dean's Showtime Cafe. I've been on different days at different times, and always find 4-7 women working of various degrees of attractiveness. Varied demographics, a couple very fine black women and a larger amount of latinas and white women falling underneath generally in terms of looks. I'd say they run the gamut from ugly-decent-pretty fine. Dances are $30 for 3 mins or $200 for the 'Champagne Room.' Tip not included. Layout wise, the entry to the building is a narrow hallway where they take your cover charge and ID. Fairly certain it's $15 for Thursday night/$20 for Friday and Saturday. Get singles from the bouncer in that same window. Straight ahead past the little entry hallway is the bar, and down a stair to the right is the stage. Long I-shaped stage surrounded by seats on wheels and a platform for drinks. No tip parade. The dancers generally hang out along a line of couches adjacent to the stage and either talk to potential buyers or sit on phones until they're summoned to dance. Some will hang out near the bar. Mostly nice girls who are willing to jaw some, especially if you're willing to throw singles or buy drinks. The owner, titular Billy Dean, tends bar. Expect to pay $10-$15 for your beverage. Dude is decently agreeable but I've seen him act like a dick when it comes to customer service. One night I saw an ugly white woman dancer, obviously hammered, try to execute a sexy spin and instead absolutely destroy a dude's Bud Light that was sitting in its cupholder on the drink platform. The dude went over to the bar to explain what happened and ask for a free makeup beverage and the Bill-man straight up denied him. He bought another one, and quickly another dancer kicked the thing right over. Again he was denied. Not the most hospitable joint. To casual visitors I don't know how much value Billy Dean's has. The layman would probably give a lower score than 7. But honestly, I fuck with this place for a lot of the dirty little quirks that might put someone off. They don't really get that wild, but despite that a couple of the ladies have a hold on me.
This place is weird, even by Long Island standards
This place is weird, even by Long Island standards. It's in a strip mall, and only open Thursday-Saturday after 10 pm, probably to comply with the Karens of the area. I walk in on a Thursday around midnight and am asked for my ID and a $10 cover, there was no pat down or anything of that nature. After giving the cover I head to the bar. $13 for a vodka soda, served by the man Billy Dean himself apparently. At the other side of the establishment is the stage, with poles on either side and seats to get all around to get an up close view. Towards the back there is the men's room with no door at all, a curtained lap dance booth, and I guess further is the VIP room but I didn't partake so I don't know exactly where it is or how it looks inside. At the bar there was a sign for the VIP room, $200 for 30 minutes plus two drinks included. Honestly that sounds like a decent value all things considered but I'd prefer to pay less for 16 minutes and no drinks. Singles could be exchanged at the booth up front by the door from the bouncer. The girls all seemed to be fairly young, of different races and body types. Some wore pasties and some didn't. While not dancing they all wore men's dress shirts unbuttoned which honestly looks rather dated and silly, as if Billy is stuck in the 80s. While on stage and off every girl seemed to have a regular to gravitate to, and customers outnumbered the girls 2 to 1 so it was hard to find an unoccupied dancer that I liked. Finally a thin busty blonde took the stage and I showered her with like $60 of singles for the duration of her time there. She had a bit of a southern accent and had decent moves. Unfortunately when her time was up she was nowhere to be found and I had a hunch some regular was lurking waiting to scoop her up as soon as I had my back turned. And none of the other talent that wasn't already giving attention to someone else caught my eye. I wasn't about to possibly wait half an hour for her so I left. Would I come back? Maybe on a Friday or Saturday when there's hopefully more talent to go around, but only if I were bored enough to do so.

Similar to Jimmy Dean's Breakfast Sausage
Bellmore, NY. Long Island. Nassau County. In a strip mall on the intersection of Newbridge and Bellmore Avenue. This is the closest club to where I grew up, you don't even think about crime in this area. Nassau county is mostly just teachers, cops, firefighters, stock brokers etc. that commute to the city, nobody is about that hood life in these parts. Other than Mirage which is kind of on the Suffolk/Nassau this is the only real option in Nassau county and it's only open Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. Cover is $15 Friday and Saturday and $10 Thursday. Friday night around 1. ID check at the door, $15 cover to guy in a booth. Walk in. Layout bar on left, long runway type stage on right. LD area is curtained booth in middle. VIP is beyond that. Bathroom is past the bar. Now not only does it not have a door on the shitter stall but it doesn't even have a door on the bathroom. So you have to take a shit you are actually visible from the bar. I mean I guess they don't want you to take a shit here but it could really back fire on this club if some sociopath comes in after eating dominoes or some shit and starts blowing it up in full view with no smell barrier whatsoever. I'd pay to see that unfold though. LD's are $30 for 4 minutes. VIP is $200 for 30 minutes which seems pretty affordable actually. The owner Billy Dean, is the bartender here and he's very active, almost too active. He walks around with a clip board and opens the curtained booths when people's times up. Talk about a mood killer. The whole time I'm gonna be wondering when the fuck this guy barges in. Other than that stuff though he seems like a jubilant kind of guy. He'll come out from the bar and yell out by the stage "How's everybody doin tonight?!?!" And every body responds "Yaaaaaay!" Customers about 20, mostly younger white dudes. Dancers about 15 or so on this night. Not really the model types you might find in Manhattan. More like girl next door long island girls. Looks like a lot of college girls. I did not see any fake anything here at all, all natural. Mostly white but a couple black girls and some latina or possibly just olive skinned italian girls. Although I didn't see anything I wanted to take to VIP it was solid lineup. I think most people would find something they like. No ugly girls. And all younger I doubt anyone over even 30. I just watched the stage and tipped for a while then left, I didn't feel like getting an interrupted barge in lap dance special. To it's credit there is some good privacy in the LD booths before that happens and it is longer than a typical song in a strip club. I haven't tried VIP here yet. The exit is the door on the left on the stage side, you came in on the bar side. Neighborhood bar, long island, just needed some piano, some Billy Joel and we'd be all set. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxEPV4kolz0
