This large club located downstairs has comfortable and plush furnishings and the dancers perform sequentially on a large central stage - although there were a few smaller stages that may be used when the place is crowded. I was there in early evening (just after work) and found the crowd of patrons quite small but it picked up as the evening went on. Dancers I saw rated 7-8 on looks. The cover charge was 15 Pounds, beers were 4 Pounds each (mixed drinks and champagne were higher), and the ATM charged 10 Pounds for any withdrawal. Tipping the stage dancer was rare because no-touching rules seemed strict and patrons would just lay currency on the stage for later pickup by the dancer. Unoccupied dancers would come by patrons tables to talk. Their main purpose was hustle for private booth dances (20 Pounds for one song) and for some more romantic experience (downstairs) that lasted ½ hour and cost 200 Pounds. The best part was the flirting and hustling - as the dancers sat close and their costumes were flimsy and revealing. Some dancers would seek to hold hands an/or caress arms and torsos. Waitresses would try to sell drinks for these dancers but their attempts were polite - unlike the pressure tactics I have seen in some other London clubs. But the couch dances were only so-so, one could see more flesh up close but contact/touching was minimal and taking more dances didn’t seem to improve things. I got 11 dances from 4 dancers and then gave up. After questioning the dancers I extracted no clear promises of anything more exotic in the downstairs experience, because of legal limits. So I left, having spent 255 Pounds (~$400) in 2 hours. Not too bad for a nice strip club, but with no great pleasure. From my subsequent experiences I know that in London this money could be much better spent acquiring the services of an escort. In fact I subsequently used the internet to locate many fine-looking London escorts and had four 90-minute incall experiences in the next week - each for roughly the same cost as my strip club visit. And each escort I saw was beautiful, friendly, and provided a much more memorable experience. So in London, I clearly recommend escorts over clubs such as this.
