Visited: Thursday Afternoon

I visited The Men’s Club on a Thursday around 11:45 just after they opened. Much of the parking lot is marked Valet, which I didn’t use but the sign said it was $4. The daytime guest cover charge was $8 which between 11:30 and 2:30 also pays for a lunch and the food wasn’t bad. I did pay for a soda $3.50, and the waitress actually gave me my change, of course I did tip her. First impressions were that the club was very big, typical lounge chairs around little tables, with other tables scattered set for an upscale dining experience. The main stage was raised, with at least 3 other satellite stages only used at night according to one of the dancers. Mirrors all around the stage were kinda cool, the music wasn’t too loud but one did have to talk a little loud, the DJ wasn’t annoying as some are, lots of TVs for sports. Overall it was nice and clean, and more importantly the bathroom was very clean. There was only a handful of customers at the time.

There was already a dancer on stage when I walked in, not ugly by any means but not a 10 either. There were maybe 10-12 dancers, more than I expected, and as they cycled through on the stage the lineup clearly went from least to most attractive. Ages were mostly younger with a couple older women who for their age looked very good, only one I wouldn’t go near. I have been to a few clubs and expected the B-listers for the day shift but there were at least 4 that stood out, if they were the B-listers I would love to see the A’s. There was a mix of ethnicities actually the 4 mentioned above represented 4 different ones. I always go up to the stage to tip the dancer, it seemed that even with decent tips the dancers were controlled, they all did the same thing, not bad but I’ve seen better. One dancer came to my table we talked for maybe 20 minutes I asked her the rules and what not about the club and she finally asked if I wanted a dance, I had food on the way so not yet and she went on her way. I pretty much got left alone to eat which was nice. At some point they did about 15 minutes of “dollar” dances. The DJ plays small clips of songs and all of the dancers were on the floor going from customer to customer giving them short table dances for a dollar. Like the stage tip dances these were well controlled and there is next to no touching table or stage side. I can’t compare table dances I have never had one. I talked to a few of the dancers, one asked me when I went to the stage to tip her if I wanted a private dance, she came around later and asked again, I didn’t like that but most of the other ones weren’t like that.

Now for the big question, was the lap dance any good? Right after the “dollar” dances you had the chance to get 2 dances for the price of one. When that started I had just gotten a dollar dance from a dancer who asked me if I wanted to do the 2 for 1. She was one of the best looking girls with an amazing rack. I had been told that dances were 30, and she told me the 2 for 1 was 40, but I went with it. She was one that would nickel and dime you for tips every chance she could because she could. She led me into the private dance area. Think of it as nice private cubicles with leather couches a small table and a chair. This was the most private, other than VIP, couch area I have seen. I asked the rules and she said, “there is only one rule, if it is uncovered you have to touch it.” All of the dancers told me the lap dances were full contact, and it was. Not disappointing like those leave you hands and arms by your side clubs, and not at all like the stage and table side dances. Overall, I wasn’t uncomfortable like some other clubs, the waitresses were very good and nice, wait for the specials to get a dance because alone they are a little pricey, if you want the dancer to come to you tip her more than once while she is on stage. I would definitely go back.
