Not convenient, but maybe best Chicago has to offer

Have been to polekatz a few times over the last year, so this review covers a few visits. Normally try to swing by when I travel to Chicago for work. It’s a bit of a hike from downtown, but worth it compared to Deja vu, Rick’s cabaret, or any other closer places. Polekatz is larger, cleaner, nicer ambiance, and has more and hotter talent. It’s not a place where you are gonna get extras (as far as I can tell), but the mileage is pretty good on the dances.

I normally Uber in but I think there is a valet fee if you drive. As you enter there is a $20 cover or so, then you go into the main cavernous room. VIP area is up the stairs to the left, and the main poles are in the center next to the bar.

Have been a few times and each time the bouncer has brought me up to the vip area. I think if you wear a button down dress shirt or suit jacket, the bouncer will take you up there, as that’s all I’ve noticed about the guys sitting up there. It’s a bit quieter, and you can get a good view of the girls and scene down below. There is a pole in the VIP area too and girls come thru there I think after the main stage - I sense they are never excited to be up there tho because it’s much quieter and they get fewer tips.
