Bar with tits, unexceptional dancers, but potential for casual entertainment

C-Mowes is an odd place. It's not really a strip club. It's a big warehouse-like building on a fenced-in gravel lot in a rundown part of Washington Park, about a ten minute drive from downtown St. Louis. Inside there are two big stages, but they almost never see any use at all, and if they do it's because one patron said they'd tip for a bit of a show. There's no DJ, just a streamed playlist with occasional specific dancer selections. It's not at all loud, particularly for a strip club. It's only open noon till 7pm.

Inside there is one long bar where most people sit, and a handful or so of tables around the stages and a pool table. Bottles of water or small glasses of soda are $6, beers about the same. Mixed drinks are about $12 (based on dancers getting a shot & Redbull). There's no cover charge. The atmosphere is very casual.

Dancers will come "sit" with patrons, where they'll chat, maybe do something that vaguely resembles a lap dance, and usually engage in some groping. Tits come out, hands wander, fondling is accomplished, all either right at the bar or perhaps over on one of the chairs. This is also very casual and matter of fact. Little fuss is made of just grabbing and stroking, and it continues if you provide some decent tips. There aren't regular lap dances, so there really isn't a regular lap dance price. For the $20-$40 rate of a dance, you can get a fair bit of bar-side attention.
