Daytime at the PHP is still chill

I made a few visits to Porthole over the last few weeks, as I've been on a bit of a strip club tear lately and I'll usually hit at least two while I'm in the area. All my visits were during the afternoon. Parking during the day can be a bit crowded, as the club is located in a busy strip mall. There's free parking, but sometimes you gotta park a bit away in the lot. At night, they cone off a large area near the club and charge I think $5 but if you're willing to walk a bit its still free. The strip mall itself is in the middle of a remodel, so there's no sign out front for Porthole but it's the last door on the left when you turn into the lot. It looks a little odd as there are windows out front now, all you see is in the inside of some plywood or paneling or whatever though.

Inside, they've removed their COVID restrictions. No more little velvet rope and waiting for the DJ to come over and take your temperature. There's also no cover during the day. The layout inside hasn't changed at all. On one side there's a bar that takes up about half the space. On the other side, there's a handful of tables and bench on the wall to sit along. One interesting note is they've "reserved" a couple tables over by the emergency exit, but I sat there and no one said anything. There's no waitresses, so you gotta go to the bar to get a drink. Domestics are $3, I'm not sure about cocktails. They do up charge for dancer drinks though, I made the mistake of pity buying a girl a drink and it ran me like $17 for a Hennessy. On the topic of drinks, I had read in reviews notes about a 2 drink minimum but never seen anything about it. However, I did see a floor guy come over and ask a couple of guys if they were gonna get a drink while I was there. It was kinda a funny scene, the guy asked them about drinks and they started ordering. He waived them off and pointed to the bar, and told them he was just making sure they were gonna get drinks, not taking their order.

As far as girls go, they are primarily black. They tend to be a little older & thicker, but they've usually got a couple young slim girls too. On three visits, the first one had 3 cute early 20's slim girls out of a total of about 6. The second was a complete strike out for me, nothing but big girls or national geographic style floppy tits. On the third there was a large selection of sizes and ages, and it was the only time I saw a non-black dancer. She was Latina but spoke some english, and really pretty hot. The average is probably 5's here, with the range going from 2-7.5. On stage, they usually do 2 song sets but sometimes when its slow they'll do 3. It's a topless only club though. There's a strong tendency towards those ridiculous outfits that are hard to take off here, so its pretty common for girls to not get topless but just kinda push their outfit to the side. There also isn't a lot of impressive pole work or things like that, the girls get up there and twirl around for the most part. Some do some twerking. There's exceptions of course, but this isn't a club you're going to go and sit and watch the stage at.
