I went to Archibalds during my lunch break and I had to admit that it was a disappointing experience. There was a rotation of 4 girls all of whom were in the 3-5 range. There is absolutely no contact with the girls and DC has some odd regulations that prohibit much interaction. Basically, you bring your cash to the stage and wave it at the dancer while she does a little ditty for you and you tuck your bill in her garter after 10 seconds. That's your show my friends!

After her set, the dancer will walk through the bar to say hi to everyone and solicit additional tips. Some of the girls are friendly and genuinely want to talk but mostly they head to a back room to wait for their next set.

There are no private dances that I could see and in all it was a waste of an afternoon. I would guess that on a weekend night the quality and quantity of dancers is better but not enough to make me want to visit again.
