sinclair's Review

I went to the Hidden Gem on a Wednesday night just after 21:00. There is a small parking lot behind the building, which was packed with the dancers' vehicles. It is better to just park on the street in front of the club. There was no cover charge. You have to walk through a metal detector to get inside. Sincweisers were $5. A glass of Coca-Cola was $3. A Hennessy shot I bought for a dancer was $12. There is a daily Happy Hour from 17:00 to 19:00. All drinks are $2 off during the Happy Hour. The ATM has a $400 maximum withdrawal and a $5 fee per transaction.

Like all clubs in this part of Pennsylvania, the main stage is an island with a spinning pole in the middle of an island bar. It is impossible to tip the stage, so dancers did a tip parade after their two song stage sets. There were a few guys who crumpled dollars into balls and threw them over the bar at the dancers, but half the time their dollars missed the stage. Dancers did two songs on stage, getting topless. A few select dancers did flash their pussies. There was an additional stage on the side of the room, but it was not used on the night I was at the Hidden Gem. There is a DJ booth, but I think on weekdays they use some kind of robot DJ as I did not see anyone in the roost.

Private dances are timed out to four minutes. Topless dances are $25 per song. Nude dances are $45 per song. Fifteen minutes of dances is $100 for topless or $150 for nude. Thirty minutes of dances is $185 for topless or $285 for nude. If you do thirty minutes, two drinks are included. There is also a VIP room option called the Kings Court. Fifteen minutes in the Kings Court is $275 and includes two drinks. Thirty minutes in the Kings Court is $450 and includes two drinks. Sixty minutes in the Kings Court is $850 and includes two drinks. There is a special for eight minute long topless private dances during Happy Hour (17:00-19:00) at a price of just $35. All private dances take place downstairs in the basement. You have to prepay an employee at a counter in the hallway to the rooms.
