sinclair's Review

I visited Cabaret Lady Mary Ann multiple evenings during the week. The cover was $6 on weekday evenings and $12 on Saturday night around 23:00. The coat check is free, but you should tip the door girl a couple dollars. As always, the bouncer walks you to your seat, and you must tip him a dollar or two. On one of my visits, I only had twenties in my pocket, so I asked the bouncer for change. He only gave me fifteen dollars back and walked off, so remember to always to have a toonie or loonie in your pocket upon heading into the club. During Happy Hour, a bottle of beer was $6.25. A bottle of beer was $8 after 21:00. The club carries Molson Coors Brewing products. A nine ounce wine for one of the dancers set me back $13.

Lap dances are $20 per song or $160 for a half hour. Based on the song length, value comes out about the same whether you buy dances individually or for a half hour. Dancers do get nude usually on the second dance. If you are only getting a single dance, most won’t bother taking their thong off. You are allowed to touch everywhere except between the legs. Lap dances take place upstairs, so this club may not be handicap accessible. The lap dance booths are very similar to the dressing rooms in department stores, with closing doors that cover most of the entrance. There are cameras inside of the booths.

There were usually over 25 dancers working on the weeknights. On Friday and Saturday nights, there were over 35 dancers working. Almost all of the dancers were of Quebecois origin. I only noticed one black dancer on my numerous visits. Dancers do three songs on stage, but the way it is choreographed is unique. An entertainer dances for two songs, stripping down to topless in the process. A second entertainer will then dance for two songs, stripping down to topless. The first entertainer will return for one song, getting completely nude. Finally, the second entertainer returns for one song, getting completely nude.
