Showed up at about 10:30. Even with major bridge construction a block away, it easy to find and get to. Well maintained exterior with plenty of free parking in a well lit lot with ten to twelve cars in it. Not busy but with that number of cars thought it should be ok. $10 cover paid to a pretty girl with a big rack. Checked ID but no scan, no pat down. The inside was clean and updated. A nice upscale club with 2 stages. Modern lighting overall with professional stage lighting. Something different was a female DJ. Added a nice touch. There were only 3 customers. 2 were a couple watching a dancer on stage. The third customer sat at the bar. One dancer sat at the bar, the others sat at tables away from the stage. Sitting with the lights Dow it was hard to describe anything about them. A couple of dancers walked by me at the bar but didn’t stop. They were twenty something spinners. The dancer on stage was a bit older than the girls that had walked by and had big boobs with an attractive mom bod. There was a one song break between dancers. The next dancer was again very attractive, older, and had that soft mom bod look. Being as slow as it was the only detail I have is domestic bottle beer was $6. The last time I was in, dances were $40 or 3 for $100. The dance area was on the second floor. This club has always, and still is known for pretty girls and air dances. It is a great atmosphere and has always been a party atmosphere when busy. But on this particular night, at 11pm, it was quiet. I would recommend the club. It’s an upscale club but affordable pricing. Never been known for extras.

Have not been in the area or the club for about 6 or seven months. Got in a little after 8 with a fair number of cars in the parking lot. Like always, parking was free, well lit, and well lit. I think the door was $10, but as a military veteran, I got a pass. It was a Thursday night. An attractive young girl and a pleasant man worked the door. Turn to the left and you enter the club. Over a three year period with occasional stops it had gone from a must stop club that was always a fun, to an OK club that was a hit and miss. The quality of the dancers and energy of the club had faded over time. The layout was the same but the old energy had returned. A totally nude, full chested girl danced on stage. The stage lighting appeared to have been improved. 10 dancers were in the main area of the club. With their comings and goings from the back it seemed there was a a total of maybe 15. There were maybe 10 customers in the club. The girls would stop by and visit while I drank a $5 or $6 beer. I joined the other customers at tipping the dancers. The dancers were from 6 to 9’s. Dances in the back were $40. I test drove one who offered a better time for an up charge but she was not as good as I hoped she would be. The other girls that I thought might have promise stayed tied up with other customers. After about 45 minutes of drinking and tipping the dancers, I called it quits. I was pleased to see the club return to it’s former self. It was a good stop with a great staff. I had my doubts, but Bare Assets will return to my “must stop in” clubs.

I have been to the Redroom about 4 times over the past two years. It is usually busy no matter the day or the time. Easy to get to a short distance off US 19. Plenty of free parking but this night was crowded. It was about 9pm. Step down to get in, pay $10 cover to door girl at counter to left. You enter to a long bar that runs to the left and right. Across from the bar is extra seating forming an aisle. The stage is low and small and to the far right. In past visits I had never been inclined to stay long. Drinks are , $6 or $7 for a beer. I would tip the dancers but never a good vibe. In the past there have been a fair amount of dancers but none that caught my attention. I’d check it out, drink my beer and leave. But tonight was different. I found an empty bar stool to the left of the entrance. No longer than the time it took to get a beer, a grade 5 spinner that had been sitting in a nearby booth by herself, approached me. With a hand on my shoulder, she out of the gate told me $85 for a room, $200 for her and we would have a great time. She looked like she had a hard a hard day and a long shift. I had to pass. After sitting for a while, I needed to visit the restroom. It was clean. The club was full and though it was hard to get a count, I would guess between 15 and to 20 dancers. They were a variety of sizes, shapes and colors. As clubs go, the dancers were 5’s and 6’s. If there was something higher there they were hanging out or working in the back. As I made my way to the restroom, a customer stopped me and ask if I knew him. When I came out of the restroom he stopped me again and asked if I wanted to have a seat at the end of the bar near the stage. As we sat and talked, an AA dancer in her 30’s sat down next to me. My new friend introduced her but I forget her name. As other dancers past by, they would stop and he would introduce them. He pointed out other dancers in the club giving me a run down on each one. This was different from my previous visits. It was like being in a neighborhood bar with strippers. Some pulled out their boobs and offered a sample. Some invited a friendly pat on their butts. I have to admit that I had a better time there than I had in a long time. I apologize on the front end for lack of details. I know people want details, prices, services and all of that. The man that had stopped me was a regular. I reminded him of a friend that had been killed in Vietnam. The Redroom has a reputation of a good club. I, being from out of town, was giving it another shot while in the area. Now I understand it’s popularity. However, the dancer’s seem to spend the bulk of their time with regulars. I did not see many dancers with customers going for dances in the back. I would recommend you give it a try. Bad clubs don’t stay busy.

Have been to Scarlett’s a number of times over the last couple of years when in the Tampa area. It is in a industrial area east of Ybor. Been there mid-day, early evening, and even after midnight. Always have felt safe. Lots of free parking and well lit. On this visit it was late afternoon on a Wednesday. Directly inside the door is a small counter where I have always found an attractive, personable young woman to take the now $15 cover charge. Pass through a curtain and you are in the main room. Bathrooms directly ahead on the back wall. Bar with stools and DJ booth are on the left wall. A large, rectangular, raised stage visually dominates the room. The lighting is low but far from dark. The music level is pleasant. There are plenty of tables and chairs, plus some booths for lots of seating. When I entered there was no one one stage. I took a seat at the bar as there were only a few customers and dancers. I ordered a $7 coke. There is a one drink minimum at Scarlett’s . In Tampa, nude clubs do not serve liquor. Within a few minutes I was approached by a thin, young dancer. As she was not my type, I politely passed. Not but a few minutes past when I was approached by a bit older, Hispanic dancer. She had big, firm boobs and a butt to match. She had a moderate amount of broken English. Once again she was not my type and I politely passed. A third dancer approached as I remained at the bar. She was somewhere just north of 5’. She was attractive with a moderate build and large, natural boobs and a small tight ass. She shared her time time dancing between Miami and Tampa. Originally from New England, she knew her craft well. Her conversation was easy. Her touch was light. She also knew how to close a deal. With no promise of anything, she raised her skirt to expose her pretty, bare pussy. With that it was a done deal. With a payment of $15 to the bartender, off we went to the back. As a starter, I opted for a 3 for 60 “afternoon special”. After the first dance, fully nude, we made a deal for some more fun. I am 77 and have been in SC’s around the world since I was 17. With that amount of experience, I can say authoritatively say she was one of the best dancers ever. A double D, tight ass, bundle of energy that made for a memorable visit. I have found that Scarlett’s is a spot I have come to find comfortable. The number and quality of dancer have varied from visit to visit. There is always a variety of types of women to choose from. The staff is always friendly and the club is clean. As with all clubs, some visits are better than others but sometimes you find a jewel. This particular day I was lucky and found a diamond.

I have been going to the club a couple times a year for about 4 years. I visit when I am in Tampa for business. Most visits have been on Thursday or Friday nights. The physical setup has not change during that time. It has always been clean and well maintained. When I first went I was amazed by the selection and number of dancers. The parking was free and the lot was usually 3/4 filled or more. The inside of the club was full but not crowded. It was a good place to spend your time and money. Over the last year or year 1/2 things have slowed. The parking is still free. The staff is friendly and helpful. However the number and quality of dancers has dropped. So has the number of cars in the parking lot (still free) and the number of customers. Drinks are still reasonable and dances were $40 with the promise of a good time. The music selection appeared to be dancer driven. The volume allowed you to carry on a conversation. Girls danced one at a time in rotation. It appeared that though there was limited tipping going on, the girls, with the encouragement, of management got nude. It is still a great spot to check out. It only takes one girl to make it a great night. Unfortunately my visit wasn’t that night. From being in other clubs in the area and through out the state, I believe the state age law has reduced the number of dancers working. The party atmosphere that was there in a lot of clubs has faded. This is only a guess with nothing to factually back it up. I will continue to go to clubs and enjoy the ladies. Bare Assets is still a favorite spot. I wish them success for their business. I only wish i was closer so I could go more often.

Haven’t been by in about six months so I thought I would check it out. Conveniently located about a block off I-110. It was about 4:30 in the afternoon. Plenty of free parking with about a dozen cars in the lot. There was no door charge. In the front and turn to the right and you enter the large, square, main room. Bar to the right raised main stage with poles in the center. A couple of smaller, satellite stages on the borders. Looked like a reserved raised area on one corner. Plenty of tables and chairs with booths along the perimeter. There were about ten girls working. Two were sitting with customers out on the floor. A couple were standing talking to customers at the bar. A few were sitting in the back in a group and there were a few drifting in and out of the back. Assortment of body shapes in the 5 to 7 ranges. All light skinned Took a seat at bar. It was only about half full. Domestic bottle beer $4. Hot bartender with white sweater top had a full rack with nice nipples pushing out against the fabric. After a few minutes approached by attractive girl with bikini type outfit. Her nipples were poking out too. Must have been a chill in the air or part of the dress code. When asked, she said she was from Cuba but conversed in English. Thought I was in Tampa for a minute. She had small boobs, nice round ass and a pretty face. After just a few minutes she excused herself to take her turn in the rotation. They were 2 short song sets with no clothes coming off. I tipped her at the rail and sat back down. After her short set she came over and thanked me. I asked her the price if a dance and she quoted $45. She was nice but not that nice so I passed. She and one other girl that was talking to a customer were the only ones that got my interest. The club is clean and well lit. The staff is friendly. The drinks are priced right. The dancers are average. It might be a better vibe at night but it was a quiet afternoon. Always a good spot to check out and have a drink or two.

Have driven by a number of times in late afternoon but usually parking lot never had many cars. This Friday afternoon it was about 1/3 full. Plenty of free parking and no cover charge. When you enter bar on wall to right, bath rooms on the back wall, long raised stage to the left. Booths against the wall with plenty of tables and chairs. Took a seat at bar. Attentive female bartender. A equal number of customers and dancers scattered around. Domestic beer $6 with tip. The girls were doing 2 songs at a time on stage rotation with a break in between dancers. None were overly energetic. It was just a lazy day hangout kind of day. Variety of size shapes and color of girls. For the few number of dancers there was quite a variety. No tens……no threes. Was approached by slim, b cup AA with a pretty face wearing a bikini. Nice and looked good on her but about a five on the sexy outfit scale. She visited for about 10 minutes and then asked if I would like a dance. I had already decided to leave and the $40 quote didn’t encourage me to stay. I lived in Pensecola a number of years ago and the clubs have not gotten better or worse. Usually they are staffed with attractive girls that air dance, drink, and visit. That’s the way it was and appears to be the way it is. I would try again but more in the 9pm plus slot.

About every six months I am in the Tampa/St Pete area. It’s 300 + miles to get there so that’s the reason for the infrequent visits. I always make a point of stopping at Bare Assets because it ‘s well run and always has a friendly staff. In the past the parking lot was pretty full. Always free with lots of space but that night about half full. Pay entry just inside the door. $10 cover. Nice young lady taking the cash. Bathrooms to the left, club to the right. Stage straight ahead, bar to left running length of wall. Plenty of bar stools, tables and chairs. About 8 to 10 girls working. Mostly sitting together or with a customer. Most appeared to be regulars. Beer $5 or $6 plus tip. In the 30 minutes I was there 2 girls went on stage, got topless and flashed pussy. Girls were assorted shapes and sizes the mostly 6 and 7’s. No 9 or 10. Compared to past visits it was pretty quiet. Fewer girls, less selection, fewer customers. It used to be a party atmosphere but that night it was like neighborhood bar with friendly, pretty girls. Dances have always been $40 in the past and probably still are. Clubs go up and down over time. It was not the club that I always made a point to stop at. It is still clean, friendly, and well run. Next time I am in town, I will probably still give it another try. Maybe a Friday or Saturday might be better. As they say, it only takes one girl to make the stop worthwhile.

The neighborhood is not the best, the building has seen better days. There is plenty of free parking with the lot like everything else about this place has had better times. The entrance ie on the back side of the building. Having been to lots of clubs over the years, here and out of the country, these are not reasons not to check it out. Other reviews made it seem worth a stop. When in the area I always try to try one new place on each visit . Enter, turn immediately to right and enter with a turn to left. No door charge that afternoon. The bar is directly in front of you with about nine stools. To the left is a fair size room with plenty of seating and a stage. Though the music was on, no one was in that area or on stage. Took a seat at bar with one customer plus a man that appeared to be the manager. The bartender was female with a friendly disposition and great cleavage. There were 6 dancers with the one with the biggest chest hanging on the other customer. The other 5 dancers grouped up together at the side of the bar. They mostly were on their phones. It was just a laid back quiet afternoon with some girls hanging out in bikinis. Until the semi-blond, tight bodied Latina introduced herself. When she stroked Johnny rather than shake my hand, I knew I was in a familiar place. After a brief encounter I told her that I needed time to settle in. She made one more pitch for a dance then returned to the group of other dancers. I drank my $5 beer and visited with the manager and bartender. After seeing that there was no 9 or 10 of 10 hiding in the back, I signaled the first girl back. $15 to the house and $25 a dance. The dance area is down a hall behind the bar with a series of small rooms with a bench and a curtain. She was as friendly and sensual as she had been at the bar. From the start, she was one of the most delightful dancers I have met in a long life and a lot of clubs. She was either a natural or a great actress. She showed me a great time. We settled on a fixed fee, no song count, no time structure. She earned her money and a nice tip. I have no idea about their night time business or the neighborhood. But I can say that of all the clubs in the Tampa, Pasco County area that I have been to, this is the best yet. Not fancy but friendly. Not cheap but affordable. Just a good old fashion bar where you can enjoy a drink, enjoy some female company, and relax.

Going I-95 north easy off to within a block. At far right end of strip shopping center. Not the best area but in late afternoon, saw no issues. Free parking but had to park midway down the parking lot which was overall pretty full. No body at door, no cover charge. Good size club that had seen better days. Large bar runs down center of room. Low rise stages on both sides of bar with a smaller one at the front of the bar. Good lighting and music at a level you could carry on a conversation. At least one dancer in bikinis on each stage in steady rotation. All the dancers did 2 songs and stayed dressed. That was disappointing though I knew it would be that way in Jacksonville. Liquor and clothes have replaced liquor and a lot of fun in that city over the years. The club was probably a little less than half full. A lot of groups of 4 or five guys with the girls being friendly and trying to find a taker. The older customers were sitting at the bar or standing around talking up the girls and rubbing asses. Specials on buckets of beer and 2 for 1 fueled the party. A relaxed atmosphere with an assortment of kinds and colors of girls. Though friendly, the dancers were to my taste, mediocre. When she got off stage a busty Cuban girl stopped by. A little older than the others, she knew her trade. The bikini made it hard to tell exactly what she had going on. Her pitch was if you like these big boobies, you can get a better look in the back. There was a steady flow of customers and dancers going to the back. For me, it was a good stop on a long drive. But the vibe was not there to spark my interest. I lived in Jacksonville in the 70’s and 80’s. Things are not what they used to be. The no alcohol, nude clubs and especially nude clubs with alcohol are more my thing. When in Jacksonville, I would be inclined to check it out again. A little investment of time and money can sometimes surprise you with an unexpected reward.

Have gone from time to time over a number of years. Always been a clean, better than average club with an assortment of quality dancers. Door charge was $10. One drink minimum. Bud Light in a bottle $6. Large club with 2 stages. Well lit. Music not overly loud with a pretty good dj. Girls were doing 2 dance sets. First clothed, 2nd topless. Private dances were $40 for one, 3 for $100. Used to be done upstairs but only one guy got a dance while I was there fort 30 to 40 minutes. She took him to the back corner of the bottom floor so only minimum privacy. This club has never been known for more than air dances. Though it has always been a topless club, a number of years ago they would let the girls go full nude for enough tip money. That’s when it was fun and a real party atmosphere. But that part is history. The girls ranged from cute, thin spinners to a few that could loose a few pounds. There were girls of all color and body type. You could find one to your liking but there was no energy in the club. The one exception was a young, thin, spinner who put more energy in her pole work than I think I had ever seen. She was amazing to say the least. She had the attention of everyone in the club while she was on stage. Other than her, nothing of interest to me. If you’re looking for a quality club you should stop by. As with all clubs the talent varies. On this visit the quality of the talent and energy in the club were lacking. But, it could have been that particular night.

This is a second visit in six month. In from out of town. The first visit was a Friday afternoon. I am not sure if I had not been there in daylight I would have gone at night. It is in a light industrial part of the Tampa. Street well lit and quiet but not much there at midnight. Plenty of well lit, free parking. Lot was a little over half full. Enter club, small counter, cute girl takes your $10 cover fee. One drink minimum, no alcohol, full nude are the rules. Main room is basically a square with a lot of mirrors on the wall which make it appear larger than it is. As you enter the main room, the restrooms are directly ahead across from entrance. As you look to the left is a raised, well lit stage. At this time there was a topless dancer performing. Across the fa left wall is the bar band DJ booth. There is plenty of comfortable seating with booths and tables. The stage is surrounded with chairs. The music is loud with a strong dance beat. The room is comfortable. Some girls sat with customers with about 3 sitting around on phones. A few more girls drift out of the back with their customers. They do 3 song sets with the last full nude. The assortment of girls is 5 to 9 with a wide variety of shapes and colors. For such a small number of dancers, there was a good selection to choose from. About 12:30 all the girls went on stage a the DJ announced. 3 for 60 special. The girl I chose was a young brunette spinner that caught my eye when she was dancing on stage. But she was already committed. My second choice was a little older, fuller figure girl that caught my attention. As we talked, I found that the soft, warm, full ass that I rubbed as we talked was just what the doctor ordered. The house has a $10 fee for entrance to the dance area. There is a number of areas for private dances. The one we went to was a long hall with open booths but no privacy. Being a slow night there was only us and one other couple in there. On a busy night I would think it would be tight. Due to the lateness of the hour and the length of the day, there was a mention of more but I passed. She was great. Got down to business totally nude and proceeded to give a great 3 dances. $60 + $10 + $20 tip. Money well spent. I’ll be back. The staff made me comfortable for a great time. .

Have been there many times over a 30 year span. Going south out of Valparaiso, FL on John Sims Parkway, turn right on Old Hyway 20. Go down a wooded road about 1/2 mile and you will be at The Matador Club. If you drive past it by 50 yards you will hit the security fence of Eglin AFB. An uninviting, one story building with plenty of free parking. Cover at the door $5. Step inside past the doorman to the far left are the bathrooms. To the left of the door are a few pool tables. Straight ahead is a raised rectangular stage that runs toward the back of the building. It’s about 3’ off the ground. There are no chairs or stools at that stage. Directly behind the stage, and running along the back wall is the bar. To the right of the door is a lot of round tables and chairs. To the far right is the stage with one pole. It has plenty of chairs at the rail. This stage is maybe 6” up with a tip rail wide enough for a girl to sit of it. The lighting is poor. To the right of the stage is the girls dressing room. Behind the stage is the DJ booth. To the left of the stage is the lap dance room. A domestic bottle beer was $5. The bartender that particular night was the owner. Of the 10 or so girls working, none were more than a 5 or 6. Historically it had been said that The Matador was a place where old strippers went to retire. Though, the club had always employed a variety of girls and ages, the more mature were always fun, skilled, and not that bad looking. Also they in the minority of of dancers. The Matador for years ran a broad spectrum of shapes, sizes and colors with a 10 thrown in from time to time. The girls working danced the main stag in single rotation with some more enthusiastic than other. For a nude club, there was not much stripping. The customers were young for the most part. They sat mostly in groups. The girls, when not dancing, appeared to hang around casually with the customers. There didn’t seem to be a lot of hustle going on. The customers would sometimes drift up to the stage and tip the dancer. In the 45 minutes I was there I saw one customer take a girl back for a private dance. I overheard one dancer offer a dance to a customer at the bar for $40. He passed and she moved on. The bar was lacking the in customers, energy, and entertaining dancers as it had in the past. A few days ago on a Tuesday, about 5:30 I was in the area and drove by. The parking lot was deserted. The front porch was lined with stacks of boxes on one side of the door and the other side had stacks of chairs. It was not open. There were no signs to indicate hours or if it would open at all.

Have been to other clubs in area but not Scarlett’s. Been in clubs starting in Mexico at 16 in the mid 60’s. Lot’s of miles and lots of clubs but always up for a new one. The layout is well known but here goes. Situated in industrial area east of downtown Tampa. Big lot, free parking. Arrived about 1:30 in the afternoon. Just opening up. About 12 cars in the lot. Pretty, young cashier inside door. $10 cover, one drink minimum, no alcohol, full nude was the rundown. Curtain to left side of cashier opening to large room. Size deceptive because walls covered in mirrors. Clean, nice lighting, with long rectangular stage in center. Plenty of chairs and tables across floor with booths along walls. Hall to left and right of bar lead to private dance area. Took a seat at bar and ordered a $5 drink. Approached pretty quickly by nice blond with a natural, soft body. Not heavy, just nice and full. As soon as she sat down she excused herself to go on stage. On song two I went up to lay some dollars on her. She laid on the rail of the stage with a full C or maybe D exposed at the top and her dress hiked up to her waist. Her lack of panties exposed a beautiful shaved slit that she politely spread for me. As she did she said “you sell what you got and it doesn’t hurt to advertise. Full nude, full contact”. She knew how to set a hook. I laid down a few more bills and returned to the bar waiting for her to finish. In the mean time a customer that was sitting with another girl went up to the stage. When the blond was finished her set, she walked over to the customer and led him to the back. As I sat a bit disappointed, other girls began to work the floor. I watched and tipped as they went on stage. Almost exclusively Hispanic but didn’t see quite what I was looking for. One dancer with long black hair. Boobs spilling out of her top, and an ass to die for made a second pass. As the. blond had not returned from the back, time was getting short to start the 7 hour drive home. the dark hair cutie made an offer of 3 for $60. It seemed like worth a shot so off I went with little or no conversation. Club got $10 fee on top of the $60. Quick trip to end booth down the left hall. Not first class but workable cubical. She was friendly and fun but when it came to her bottoms she was hesitant. When I asked the price she just said relax and enjoy. Experience has shown more often than not the problem is the time of the month. Still enjoyed the two way contact but the possibility of extras was not even discussed. All and all enjoyed the atmosphere and the layout. Staff was friendly. Even early in the day a variety of girls available. Might or might not have had a memorable outing with the blond but with any first time visit, it usually gets better when you know the lay of the land.
