The millstream inn is a semi-hidden...

The millstream inn is a semi-hidden gem, nicely removed from the sleaze of "the Block" and definitely higher-end than the college-town desperation of some of the strip bars of, say, Towson. The food is genuinely good, not just strip-club good, and there is some actual talent (quotation marks omitted intentionally) working the stage, cage, and private areas here.

On a Saturday night you'll find 2-for-1 drinks, girls and dances, and a decent population of couples and singles from a wide cross-section of Baltimore. Take away the nudity and change the lighting and you'd swear it was an indie sports bar. The DJ tonight was interesting without being distracting, funny without making the girls or guests the butt of the joke, and the music was a great mix of genres (pantera's "walk" followed a mashup of "Billie Jean" and "sweet home Alabama"). My waitress was sweet, competent if not attentive (busy night), and of course exotically pretty and sporty.

On the downside, The mens room is a bit better maintained than the womens, drinks are still strip club prices, and some of the girls are best left onstage (a detached, antisocial lapdance can ruin the beauty of a dynamic stage dance or the best bodies man can build).
