This always seem to me like the odd one out amongst the gentleman's venues of the area. This has nothing of the pub atmosphere of the other venues, but seems more like a dance club, with all the hustle and neon lighting that goes along with it.

This club is very much about quick turnover, with a different girl on stage every few minutes. Typically the girls are on stage for one song, then there is no show for a song, and then the next girl is up. In the early days, the dances where just 50p, but that seems to have changed now, which makes the burn rate here pretty high. But there are always a lot of girls working, so it takes a while until you'll see the same girl on stage again. With this many girls, there is a fair range from those you really don't want to see naked to the occasional stunner. Overall, the girls are usually in the 7-8 range, and give a pretty good stage show, which is usually at the raunchier end of the scale. Most girls seem to be eastern European and in their early twenties, so there isn't much variation, but if this is your thing, then there are a lot of girls to choose from.

The 'private' dances take place at the back of the pub, and are anything but private. Even in the separate room that offers the most privacy, you are sat just a couple of feet from the next person, which adds to the cattle-market feel of the place. The dances are pole dancing, and are supposedly no-contact, but the right girl might offer some minimal contact for a small tip. And the girls tend to put the hard sell on the private dances, and then make it pretty obvious that they want to get them over and done with as soon as possible so they can move on to the next sell.
