Lazy Afternoon
I went on an afternoon, arriving about 2pm. There were at least 5 dancers, but 2 were having some kind of drama, would run from the dressing room outside every so often with one arguing about something. So I $ saw three dancers on the stage. Dancers were obviously bored, just going through the motions. Only one used the pole, but she was pretty good. I'd say all dancers were about 5s. They made the rounds after each dance asking for tips. One came back a few mintes later asking for additional tips amd saying "do you want to touch my boobies?" In a club that is supposed to be no touch I found that odd. I decided to try a damce with one of the ladies, and she explained that there is the $10 dance with no touch either way. She described it as me just watching her dance but on a chair in a side area. For $30 she would actually do a lap dance, allowing me to touch as long as I "didn't grab." I decided on the $30 dance. Paid the bartender in advance, and went to a side room. Not real private, but there was nobody else there, do it worked. Sje started out by explaining to me that she didn't get the whole $30, but only got $20. Kind of an indirect way of saying she expected a $10 tip. Dance was OK. Pretty uninspired. She was topless with a g-string bottom. Almost no eye contact or talking. A little bit of grinding, but not enoigh to get much response. Allowed hands on thighs and back. No contact at all with her hands. Not the worst I've had but in the bottom 3. On their defense, it was a slow afternoon. Omly tjree of us there and I was the only one showing amy interest, so maybe they decided to just go through the motions. Not sure I'll be back, and if I do, I'll try to get there at a busier time.

Satisfactory visit
Parking space outside was adequate when I arrived at 5:00 pm. The building is by a cemetery. The physical size of the building is on the small side. You enter with the bar along the left, and past the bar stools is the main dancing room. It has one horseshoe-shaped stage with a pole. There is just enough room for about 8 small tables around the stage. Rest room is tiny but clean. It is pretty dark inside. Music is at a moderate level and is classic rock. There is a separate alcove for lap dances with four comfortable chairs but there are no walls or curtains--anyone can see what you're doing. On the positive side, lap dances are only $10 each--below the going rate elsewhere. No door fee was charged but a $5 drink was required. There were 8 customers, a woman bartender, and 6 dancers: 3 white, 2 African-American (Jade-- the heavier one, and Stormy), and 1 Indian named Love (yes, she confirmed my guess that she was Indian; says she worked here 4 years. Probably the only Indian dancing in Milwaukee, and fairly hot.) Average hotness of the dancers was maybe a notch above Heart Breakers or Spot Lite, and they were friendly. Some twirled on the pole a lot; some didn't. Some did a tip walk; some didn't. The usual stage-side tipping gets you boobs-in-face. It is topless only; nothing else comes off, touching is not encouraged too much, and it doesn't seem possible to get stick-shifting here. In summary, Encore is pretty standard for Milwaukee and seems to benefit from proximity to the ballpark in the summer (a sign says they have shuttles to ballpark). I'm not in a hurry to go back, but Encore is a reasonable option for something different.

Late afternoon visit
Returned to this club after several months with a group right after a Brewers game. This club is very close to Miller Park, and my (fairly drunk) friends wanted to visit a strip club after the game. Paid a $5 cover, and went in. Nothing has changed with this club physically, so I will not go into the details that others have provided. The place was crowded with lots of others who came from the game. There was nowhere to sit at the bar, so we sat at a table. Took forever to get drinks (bottle beers were $5 or $6 each). There were about a dozen dancers, from 3 to 8 in range. The rail was very crowded, so we sat at our table and watched the show. Dancers would do the standard tits in face for a dollar, but were otherwise limited by the way the rail is situated, and by the rules of the club. Typical tip walk after each two song set, and the dancers were aggressive about collecting money, and would not spend much time with any one patron. Couple of friends did the $10 air dances in the not at all private dance area. Dancers did not push for tips - who would pay a tip for a pure air dance anyway? My friends seemed happy with the attention, but they do not go to many strip clubs (at least I don't think they do). I stayed for about an hour. I hate crowded strip clubs, and I was not going to pay for air dances anyway. There were a couple dancers that I would have liked to spend some time with - but the place was too crowded. I may return since it is so close to stadium, but I would never again go when the stadium is so packed.
