Whenever I’ve been in the mood to visit a strip club in my hometown, this has been my go-to joint. The positives continue to be that it employs girls of all colors with a range of body types, so you’re sure to find someone pleasing to watch or interact with. However, the older I get, the younger they seem to get. Or, rather, the more I get a little uncomfortable with the youth of the average dancers and wish they featured some older, more experienced women as well. Or at least fewer clearly newbie dancers who seem like they have little idea how to give a good dance, or even adequately flirt before proposing one. It’s not that much of a problem if you go loaded, but considering that the place is fully nude and therefore no alcohol, a little-too-sober boredom can go a long way to turning a fun night into a slog. Still, there is almost always at least one girl dancing each time I go who seems worth taking private, and often more than one. (Which is fortunate, because the popular ones never seem to have to take breaks from the back room.) This time, I went on a Thursday night to catch their weekly “amateur” contest (prize of $500). The less said about the hopeful talent on display, the better. One eternal piece of advice for this place is to either show up late after you’ve made a night of it elsewhere (as in, after 2am) or else be prepared to be one of only a few patrons surrounded by the more desperate dancers. It really is an after hours spot.

So I’ve been talking to this stripper Chloe on Instagram for over a year. So she was going to be at this masquerade party at Show Palace. Lap dances was $10 until midnight. That was cheap and I could get a lot of LD. I’m not familiar with Queens. I’m from Jersey but LIC is one of the best parts of Queens. I arrived and I parked one block up from the club. It’s a quiet block with some businesses around. I walk in the club and it’s alot of small tables. I was told you have to reserve them to sit there. I sat down without reserving a table and nobody told me to move. I arrive around 10 pm. It wasn’t busy yet. Around midnight this place gets packed. The dancers and bartenders are mostly black & Latina with a few white girls. I love that because I’m mostly attracted to Black & Latina women. A couple of girls approach me for LD and I agreed. TD are $10 and private rooms LD are $25. This isn’t a make it rain club. So the girls make money from LD and booking private rooms. Basically the more money you willing to spend. The longer they will stay with you. Extras are basically like touching tits and sucking on tits. In the private rooms they got cameras. If it looks like y’all fucking. They coming in to break it up. I didn’t feel vibes like the dancers would just let you hit even out side the club. Some of the girls might if you get to know them and willing to help them out financially. Especially single moms. Things went great when I met Chloe. We vibed talked & I got a couple of lap dances. I also booked her for a 15 minute private dance in a private room for $75. This is a nude club No alcohol. I love that aspect fuck that I got to get drunk to have a good time. I spent like $200. I definitely visit this place again and recommend it if you like a classy spot with a lot of attractive dancers.

Have been a few times before but most recently went on Thursday night around 9pm which is a little early for this place - it’s open pretty late into the wee hours of the night and seems to get going after midnight. The club is really big inside - outside feels a little sketch and like a dead zone by a highway. But you go thru security and metal detectors so feels safe. Think I paid a $20 cover. No alcohol here but flip side is girls are fully nude. Usually one on stage and few girls roaming. The girls here are pretty mixed ethnicity wise and tend to be pretty natural. Since I was there early there were only around 5 girls. You’ll get approached but they aren’t pushy. Floor dances are $25 or you can get 30 min in the vip area (curtained rooms with cameras) for $150. Much better mileage in the vip area. Did a couple floor dances with a curvy latina and agreed to a vip sesh. You pay at the bar ahead of time for the room. Pretty nice grind, hands free to roam but nothing else. All in all spent maybe $300 a pretty good deal considering it’s nyc.

Was in NY for a wedding and had some time to kill the next night so decided to find a club to go to. Wasn’t feeling like drinking so found this place so could get some good dances without the waitresses hassling me. Walked in at 10 PM an paid $20-$30 entry fee. Bouncer kind of sits at the entrance but he didn’t hassle me. Walked in and there is a wide stage off to the left and a smaller stage area in the middle right of the room. Not a single dancer was on stage so sat down and began scoping out the area. Waitress showed up and bought a $10 Soda and was approached by a short blond. She sat down for a brief moment to small talk and then immediately began requesting we go to the dance area. She wasn’t bad looking. A little extra weight but nice C cups and you got to start somewhere. Dances are done in a backroom toward the left of the club just past the dance floor and each individual room is separated by a curtain so privacy is good. Dances are $100 for 15 Min. First dance she was very sensual and was done fully nude. She did some stick shifting and some blowing over the pants. After 15 Min she asked to continue and I agreed and she quickly took the $100 and ran out the room. I believe they have to check in after each 15 mins. 2nd dance began and this time she allowed for a more… Direct stick shifting and grind stayed just as sensual. When round 3 came around and she asked if we should continue I asked what other things are on the menu and she happily replied for $100 to the club and $100 to her she would finish the night with some direct relief of her mouth and tits. I agreed and the night was perfect. Didn’t get any other dances and I didn’t need to. Left around 11 and by then they had other girls dancing on both stages. Great time no complaints, hassle or upsell.

My group of 7 went for my buddy's birthday. We went on a Saturday around midnight and the place was decently packed. After 11:30pm, they change the cover fee up to $25. After getting passed security, we walked in and can see the place is dimmed with purple and blue lights. I first had to use the bathroom, the bathroom is kept clean by the restroom attendant. After settling down on the leather-rolling chairs, and buying the mandatory 2 drink minimum (~$15) we were approached by two busty latinas and happily accepted. The dancers come to your area, chat a little and if you accept their dance, they will happily dance on you. Zero intimacy here, as your still around your buddies, while they're also getting dances. The dances last around 1-2 songs, and you're free to throw as much as you want. Be careful though, the dancers will not stop until you tell them to. There is no "preset charge" for this dance, but you're expected to throw a minimum of $20. Didn't get to experience the VIP Room. The girls who I chose were not aggressive about money at all, HOWEVER, this varies from girl to girl. Some girl got the best of my buddy and he ended up spending waaay too much. The women here are diverse and all come in different sizes. Some look angels- beautiful, cute face, good body, while other girls look unattractive or a bit older. Plenty of women to choose from, just gotta pick the right one. Overall I spent around $200, and had around 5 dances with 5 different girls. Paying Cover and 2 drink minimum was annoying. Other than that, the girls were beautiful, the dances were amazing. Would definitely come back and try the VIP

Back in the day (before 2018 or so), I LOVED Gallaghers 2000 for solid value in the private room. Then something happened in 2018 or so, and the private room was no fun any more. On a recent Friday night, I went to Gallaghers for the first time since covid. All the recent tuscl reviews said it sucked but i gave it a chance anyway. But it definitely sucks now. Unsatisfied, I consulted my trust tuscl and decided to try Show Palace because it was nearby and had some good reviews. I’ll skip boring details and get to key facts. Space is pretty nice. Closest thing to a Vegas club because huge footprint + super high ceiling. Chairs and lighting seemed “fresh” (vs most NYC strip clubs where everything is clearly 20 years old). Dancers. This is a very subjective subject. Different strokes for different folks. Me, I didn’t love the assortment. I’d say 40% Black and 60% Latina + 1 white girl. 80% on thicc-big belly scale, 20% slim. Stage shows are nude. But is that a good thing? Seeing the totally nude dancers on stage shaking their sh*t was NOT sexy at all, for me. Maybe if the girls were better looking. But I think I prefer then in stripperware with maybe a little total nudity at the end of their set. Seeing naked holes twerking for 10 minutes in bad lighting was just not exciting for me. the one white girl sat with me and told me her life story with bad breath. i wanted her to leave but she wouldn’t. she asked if i wanted to tip her ugly titties. I said No, so she finaly left. a cute Latina came up to me. we chatted. we went for some LDs (top off, panties on). pretty nice LDs. I started to perk up but then the wife started to call and text to ask “where the fck am I”, so had to split. I didnt’t see any “making it rain party spirit” that is mentioned in some reviews. I left at 1:15 so maybe that happens later. I think I’ll stick to Flashdancers.

I was bored on a Sunday evening and decided to give Show Palace a try, mainly because it's a fully nude club. I haven't been out all that much since the pandemic, so I've seen only one fully nude woman in person in the last two years, lol. And I rarely drink, so I was fine to stick to the sodas and mineral water. They do have nonalcoholic beers and wine, which other reviewers have pointed out. I got in at about 10pm, and it was fairly dead so no stage dances, most of the dancers were just chillin on couches. There were about 10 dancers when I first arrived, and another 5 or 6 showed up by 11pm. Wasn't expecting it to be packed, knowing that it's a late night spot, so I wasn't really disappointed. I noticed a decent looking mixed girl come through for her shift wearing her civilian clothes and head to the back to change. I thought she had a pretty face and hoped the body was decent, so I took note and waited for her to come out. Eventually a slim black girl came up to me and made some light chit chat. I didn't get a dance from her right away since I was hoping for someone more curvy, but she was cute and I would circle back with her before I left the club. The mixed girl came out in her lingerie and was looking good so I took her to the vip area for 15 minutes, which was $75 I believe (It's $100 on Saturday and Sunday). Unfortunately she had bad armpit BO, and had a musk coming out of her ass (full nudity only works if the dancers have good hygiene lol). She was also a wet blanket personality-wise, so I cut the dance short. I probably made it about 6 or 7 minutes. Her body was also pretty sloppy body after she got fully nude, including a poorly done fake ass. Must have gone to the discount doc. In the end I got more dances in the back room from a curvy latina and the slim black girl. They were both much better than the mixed girl and thankfully didn't smell. I didnt try any finger action, but my guess is that it would be a no-no. There are cameras in the back, so big brother is watching. You can definitely get your squeeze on though, which was fine for me. Most of the girls are decent looking. There were two girls that I would say were butt ugly, not including Ms Smelly, but the good outweighed the bad. I saw a hot curvy latina who looked about 22 on my way out and would have loved to take her to the back, so maybe next time. I'll probably check it out again when it's more lively. I live nearby so there is that convenience factor.

Visited Show Palace on a Sunday night right before midnight. Security at the door Big John gave me some shit coming in but he's a cool dude, just likes to fuck with you. Broke a $100 at the bar, every $20 of singles has a $2 fee (so you only get $18 per stack). Club was pretty dead on arrival, maybe 4 girls on the floor and about 10 customers scattered across the seats. Grabbed a $6 club soda (no alcohol at SP) and immediately approached by a Ukrainian dancer named Marina. Light two way on the single dance, convinced to go VIP where I got clock watched and over promised/under delivered. Classic. Bouncer broke us up because I was off the bench (cameras in every room and monitored clearly), and it was used as an excuse to cut the dance short by a minute or two, lame. Floor dances are $25 (topless only), 2-3 min songs, VIP is $75 for 15 minutes in the back fully nude. By 1:30am there were around 15-20 girls walking around, mostly 6s and 7s, a couple 8s, basically all either Latina or WOC, with a couple EE girls mixed in. One dime named Lala who I took to the back for a fucking incredible dance (no extras). Before the dance, we went to the smoking area of the club just past the bar on the right, little more than a service hallway but a good spot to share a joint and have good conversation without the loud music and generally shoot the shit if you're so inclined. Made for a much better LD experience in my opinion. Main stage was super dead, bartender told me it would pick up around 3:00, but when I left at 4:15 it was still pretty much a ghost town. YMMV of course, I hear Friday and Saturday are more crowded, but there's merit to a slow night, let's you take things in a little more. All in all spent $225 on 3x 15 min VIP, $50 on two floor dances, and another $100ish on stage tips, dance tips, bar tips and $6 club sodas. Not the cheapest club around, but much better than Manhattan prices and if you're patient you'll likely find a girl that floats your boat.

Rating "8" on how far my money went with context. The context is this club is in New York City. In that context, it's a good value. Visited on a Monday night beginning about 8pm. At first there was only one other customer and a few girls sitting around. As it got later some girls went on stage but it still felt slow. By about 9:30 there were some truly hot girls and I started getting some lap dances. The lap dances are $25 and a decent length. So it is actually possible to have fun in NYC spending only $100-$200 and not breaking the bank. A 15 minute VIP room is just $75 before 12am on certain days of the week, but I didn't get that this time. During the slow early part of the night, I got a hamburger. It was surprisingly good and came on a nice glazed bun with fresh lettuce, tomato and onion and the french fries had a nice seasoning. I think it was $15. The inside of the club is both spacious and nice. It feels relatively new and good quality and not worn down. The staff and bartender were nice and easy to deal with. I think people come here for crazy Thurs Fri and Sat parties (and the place is open til 6am, 8am on some days!), but for me, going at a *way* more laid back time, I had a decent and chill experience that I will probably repeat.

Show Palace is very convenient to Manhattan. You go over the Upper Roadway of the Queensboro (59th Street) Bridge and you are right there. With no traffic, you can get there in 6 minutes. Show Palace is also the most glamorous of any strip club in the outer boroughs and is on par with some of the major clubs in Manhattan. The main floor is huge with high ceilings and chandeliers. The main drawback is that the club does not have a liquor license and only serves nonalcoholic drinks. One option is to have dinner or drinks before you go there. Long Island City has become gentrified and there are now a lot of nice restaurants and bars along the waterfront. This lack of a liquor license is partially offset by the fact that they allow all nude dancing and that the club has 18 as the age for admission and hiring of dancers. I went with one friend of mine. The admission price was $20 which could be paid in cash or credit card. We were told that admission goes up to $25 on the weekends. I ordered a Heinekin 0% alcohol beer which tasted good and my friend ordered a mixed drink that had a nonalcoholic liquor. He had no complaints. Their beers start at $9 and mixed drinks start at $12. There is also a full menu that has everything from chicken fingers to steaks. The place was practically empty and we were told it gets busy later in the evening. Several dancers came up to us to talk. There was also a stage with all nude dancing. The dancers were of mixed ethnicity and a few of them were really hot. I had spoken with a 20-year-old dancer who was an Asian/Latina college student who lived in Queens and we later had some lap dances on the floor. The lap dances on the main floor are topless. You can have all nude lap dances if you pay extra for a private booth or room. The prices for private booths and rooms are a lot less than in Manhattan. The private booths start at only $75 for 15 minutes. Definitely one of the better clubs in Queens. Just be aware that there are no alcoholic beverages allowed on the premises. That means no BYOB either.

It was Sunday the week of thanksgiving and I had time to kill in the area. I hadn't been there since 2020 and popped in around 10-11pm. Once inside machine scan of photo ID, 20 dollar cover and photo(????). Through the metal detector there was 2 girls dancing on the small stage and about 10 sitting around, pretty diverse mostly black and Hispanic. All pretty attractive and did get nude on stage. I chilled by the side to see both stages, and barely sat down before I got approached by 2 older European women one after another. Faded the first one, who quoted me $100 for a dance and got one from the second at $75. She took me into the side room on the second floor and got a mediocre dance for a few minutes, barely physical. All together spent about ~$150 including tips. Would probably go again at a time when its busier and the rest of the talent are looking to make some cash.

Not a SC regular - at age 30 I've been maybe 5-10 times, but I've had my eye on this spot for a long ass time as I've lived in NYC for years and it's the only nude spot I know of left. I went on Saturday at 9pm and left at 4am. At this stage in my SC life, I'm still a sit back and watch as well as a stage tipper type. ID and proof of vax at door, 25 dollars to get in when I got there. 2 drink min. and its all non-alcoholic (but strangely they have an entire menu of non-alcoholic beer, wine, spirits, and mocktails. The spirits if I saw correctly are even just like labeled 'whiskey' lol. The food menu looked good but not cheap, appetizers for 8-10 dollars, mains for maybe 20? But kitchen open even at 4am when I left. The layout is a very large main room with 2-3 plush rolling chairs around a table and about 3 rows of staggered tables surrounding center stage - it wasn't the craziest night ever but it also wasn't dead - mix of groups of friends (including some mixed gender friend groups, older dudes coming alone, a lot of folks who seemed to just post up a row or two away from the stage so the stage tipping wasn't a consistent drip for the dancers and moreso random guy walking up and throwing down a bunch of 1s or feeding them in quick succession while the dancer gave up close attention or dancing. I would go up to the front row when a dancer or pair of dancer I was particularly into was up there, but other than me there were only a handful of others that did the sit up close for an entire set and tip one 1 at a time deal. There were some groups and some guys making it rain and they definitely got a bit more appreciation and attention than I did! Besides the main stage, there is another 'bar stage' that is over your back left shoulder if you were facing main stage looking at it from center middle position. There was just as many dancers on the two poles at the bar stage as there were at the three poles on main. Sometimes 1, sometimes 2 - seemed unpredictable on both stages. Felt a little weird trying to swivel and face the stage with the dancer I was more attracted to and I felt out of place having my head swivel so much and just getting up and moving to opposite areas of seating to get closer to one stage or the other but by the end of the night I didn't really give a shit anymore. The bar stage isn't as easily 'sat in front of' as the main aisle of walking in the club is right in front of it (bar on the other side hence the name bar stage so maybe I shoulda posted up there for stage sets I liked). I did end up pulling up there a few times though when I was actively dropping ones. This place is fully nude hence the no booze, but not every dancer took their bottoms off during their stage dance despite the fact that the DJ harassed them about it periodically. It seemed that the main stage was more of a guarantee for a face full of bare pussy, with some girls taking their bottoms off right at song 1 but others just waiting until the 3rd song but I think everyone did eventually at main stage. The bar stage was painful in that sense cause there were two of the hottest girls in the club who only danced there, looked like bitchy 20 year old tiktokers, but had the pretty faces and perfect slim teen bodies to get away the I'm-too-good-to-be-here bullshit. But only the rail thin black one took her panties off and only later into the night. She melted my brain in a good way though, too bad someone snatched her up and took her private for the majority of the night once she got fully nude. There were a lot of dancers, maybe 20-40? over the course of the night. They weren't too aggressive with their pitch for a dance (although some did sit in my lap and one even rubbed my cock for 2 seconds through my pants as she was saying how good our private dance could be). I'd say the majority were black or mixed or hispanic, a fair few asians of both the thick and thin variety, not really _any_ of the blonde hair blue eye midwestern type although a few white girls. A good mix though of all body types, small and thin, big and muscular, big titties, small titties, both natural and fake, big ass, compact and slender legs and ass, fake ass, etc. Overall though a fair chunk at least half the dancers just didn't really do it for me visually - a lot of girls were either too small and just had no ass or were thick but not really in the right way or amounts for me. This is not the spot where every girl is a 9. But because there were 3 stages as well as public table dances, there was usually at least one place for me to be looking. So what's the good part? For me it was the pussy. And that aspect was absolutely incredible. I like watching bare pussy when girls dance, even if the girl is not someone I'd personally choose to date in real life, I'll be happy to watch them dance if they are opening their legs up, posing in different pseudo-sex-positions with their bottoms off. I've only been to one other fully nude strip club so far which was Bare Exposure in Atlantic City when I was wasted. That place honestly might have had fewer 'filler'/'mediocre and desperate' girls tbh, but I won't judge Show Palace on a single night and I was at Show Palace after drinking only 1-2 drinks at home as pre-game, I wonder how much better it would have been for the casual stage dance watcher customer like me if I had drunk more beforehand. Dances were $10 for a 'table dance', $25 for 'topless' lap dance at a little corner with booths with semi-privacy (someone told me 2 songs?), I don't remember how much the private lap dance cost but I think they really were hoping you'd buy 15/30/60/whatever min in some private booth - I had a lot of girls ask me to go private as their main sell (little did they know I was too cheap for the $25 topless dance). The dancers who approached me for a dance were not the ones I liked the most who I would go closer to stage and give my 3-8 dollars of one at a time 1's. I guess that didn't impress them enough (lol) or they already diagnosed me and shared info that I was a low-spender. I was approached by some of the real stunners when I first got there at 9pm but as time went on the super attractive girls were all pretty busy (meanwhile a shit ton of girls I wouldn't look at twice in real life were sitting around bored out of their minds). I really enjoy my time overall, there was one girl Treasure who had a great body - tiny tits, large thick but not fat legs and ass, and during her stage show she would just get fully nude immediately and at least half her show would just be posing in ways to show off her pussy. When I tipped her, she pro-actively told me I didn't need to be so shy and gave me the go ahead to touch more so I pulled up with her and probably spent 10-20 bucks and got a show from 1-4 feet away for almost of her show. She grinded on me a bit (nude), rubbed her tits on my face, and my fav part was she could tell how much I liked her pussy so she was putting it literally inches from my face for good bits of time while we chatted. I was super close to buying a dance from her and probably shoulda but didn't do it cause I wanted to piss and she told me she'd come back around for me but then got busy. That was already at the end of my night but it was a good high point to end on. I didn't feel like my 'stage tipping' strategy that I usually use was the most effective value for money for me here. Based off of what I saw last night, I think this is a spot where even if you are a stage tipper and watcher, you're probably better off sitting a row away from the stage and then after you've had enough just blow whatever budget you would have spent at the stage on dances instead. Because Treasure made my stage tips feel super worth it and was in my lap, we were chatting, she initiate a lot of touch and got her pussy super close to me, but the others I kinda felt like didn't give a shit for my 1-3 dollars per dance and I would have been better off using that money in another way. I can't really blame them when there are occasional guys making it rain or people coming up and giving 10 ones in a row in 3 minutes then going back to their seat. I realize this probably all comes across as 'dumb beginner cheap dudes guide except ineffective' but hey we all start somewhere. I will definitely go here again because of the close-up pussy view but I will change my budget allocation to dances or spending it all in more bursts rather than spreading it out over hours. Bought two or three 7-9 dollar seltzer waters (they changed the price on the second drink but I didn't feel like questioning it), $25 dollar cover, and spent prob 50 bucks of 1s on tips over 6-7 hours which was too long but I got sucked into a blackhole. The closest place I've been to this vibe was Sam's Hofbrau in LA a year before covid. That experience was overall better (girls hotter, customers spending more so more of a party vibe and higher energy), but I wonder how much the energy and girls here suffered from the impact of quarantine/covid. At the same time I wouldn't have been able to have that time with Treasure at the stage at Sam's. She didn't have the best face of everyone there, but her dancing style and body and enthusiasm made her the best dancer of the night for me. She was masturbating in my face essentially and looking me in the eyes and chatting while she was doing her stage dance when I was stage tipping her a decent bit. The fact that there were so many girls (and a fair number of just-OK looking ones) I think made the middle-of-the-pack performers more willing to give me the time of day as a low-spender and more willing to put work in for tips. I hope more NYC strip club customers will come here as the fully nude thing is worth preserving and I can only imagine how much better it is normally and will be again as covid stuff ends even more fully. Lastly I think online reviews on other platforms make this place sound like its in some dangerous area or like it attracts a rough crowd but I got literally zero sense of that. LIC at night is definitely deserted but it's fancy offices and apartment building in the vicinity. And the crowd all seemed respectful and chill to me. Also the doorman told me you can go in and out without repaying - I didn't verify but I guess they want customers to be able to go out to get a couple shots down the street and then come back.
