The wife and I visited The Factory on Saturday, 4/2. The location is out of the way and the access road to the club is in extremely poor repair. Be careful and go slow when driving! My wife was a bit uneasy about the lack of any road lighting and the tall weeds and grasses leading to the club. The club parking area itself is valet only ($5) and was in a well-lit locked lot.

Upon arrival we were greated by the owner and a cute African American woman who was acting as cashier for both the dance and strip club sections. After producting a Gentleman's Pages ad we were given $5 off the cover and one coupon each for a buy-one-get-one-free dance. Wrist bands were applied and we were escorted inside the club and shown to a table. At 10:30 PM we were a bit surprised to see only one or two other tother tables occupied. We noticed right away that the music was very loud. (As in, one cannot hold a conversation loud...) After being seated less than a minute a bouncer (my wife says a highly attractive bouncer) came up and asked if our seats were ok and if we needed anything. Less than two minutes later a waitress came to see if we wanted ice or glasses. We got glasses ($1.50 each) for our bottle of wine. She was pleasantly surprised to see that we tipped equivalent to the cost of the glasses for her service which surprised us.

The stage dancers were less attractive than we expected. The dance quality while on stage was what we would consider average to poor. Routines were performed with little enthusiasm, poorly choreographed and no extra attention was given for tips despite the fact that both my wife and I tipped regularly. In the beginning we chalked it up to the early hours and the fact that we were told this is a late night club, however the attitude did not drastically change as the evening went on.
