the ultimate strip club list

September 5, 2008  •  Vol. 15, Issue 248

I think this was the busiest I have ever seen this club. It was a Sat night and there were maybe 7-8 guys in the club and I think I eventually saw as many dancers. Everything was pretty relaxed/laid-back. After paying odd $16 cover (where did they arrive at that?) I found a table off to the side. I enjoyed several dancers onstage while pretty much being left alone. Certainly no pressure from anyone. After a while, a tiny little dancer named April came over and asked me what I would like to drink. I opted for just a bottled water. She asked for $1 along with my coupon. OK. That's odd, too, IMHO. Maybe 20 min passed and she came back and asked if I'd mind some company. We chatted a bit, then, having seen no other dancers that intrigued me (neither of my former favs were present) I suggested we spend some private time. To my surprise, all the private dance areas were full and we had to wait. That's never happened to me here before. Like I said, it was the busiest I've ever seen it. While we were watching another girl on stage, I learned it was Janice (fav from way back) but I didn't recognize her. She seemed heavier than I recalled. Anyhow, April was good fun and cute and not overweight at all. The majority of dancers (and guys in the club as well) seemed to be Hispanic. Most of the dancers are on the older side and could stand to lose some pounds. But it was a good, relaxed way to pass a little time. If you're looking for a parade of major babes, go to Mons. If you're looking for less hassle and more relaxed this is pretty good.

This was a huge disappointment, because I had high hopes of a certain type of experience, based on information here. I suppose it would have been possible, but not this night, apparently. But what made it worse was that of the three dancers working, only one was attractive at all, and she would not even approach me, even while I was the only customer. (Go ahead and assume I'm some troglodyte, but that's just not the case.) The other two were quite different from each other: one was an asian lady who sounded and looked stoned beyond coherence; the other was caucasian and very high pressure. She actually complained to me that I was even there, since it meant she would have to go on stage, and she did not want to dance! So, aside from the dozen or so in tips at the stage, and the sixteen to enter the club, it was at least an experience that only cost time and not money. It was just depressing.

As many have said before. It is not really a strip club, in the way most people think of a strip club. Both times I have been there, there have been 2-3 girls. One on stage. No customers both times. You get approached by one of the few girls there right away. The deal here is to go into one of the back areas where the negotiation takes place. yeah, it is a seedy experience, but it is also a sure thing. I am glad there is not one in my home area, I might be a regular.

Just don't go expecting the normal strip club environment and don't go looking for 9's and 10's, they don't work there.

I know. I can't believe it either. Got there not too long before closing time. Didn't get hit up for a cover. Only one girl around when I walked in. The club has a nice layout but I've never seen it crowded. This night was no different but...surprise! That was one smoking hot girl on stage. Five foot pixie spinner sporting an auburn short bob. Sure, she was the only girl in sight but who cares so long as she's focused on me. Two other guys watching the show, apparently boring her. She walks up asks me if I'd been there before. Yes. Ever gotten a dance? Yes. Did I want a dance? I take a seat at the stage for a closer look. Two seconds go by. Yes. That was easy. Apparently the bald guy was just about to opt in and let her know his true feelings. Sorry buddy, when someone wanders in at that time of night he's not there just to sit around. Especially when in need of a high mileage chaser after that craptastic experience at Bare Assets. She still had songs up front and we had a nice chat with an even nicer view (she put in an effort up there which I hadn't really seen at this club) before heading back. After finishing a set there was another gal getting ready to dance on stage. Surprise! Also hot. Curvy blonde with a great rack and mile long legs. Sat again and chatted since I was the only guy around and in no hurry. Batting a thousand so far. Two home runs. After another round in back I noticed a third dancer had made it out. Girl #3 was also blonde and even curvier, especially up top but a bit of a butterface. 2.5 out of 3 ain't bad. By this point a few more guys had wandered in, who surprisingly turned and nodded as my new fav in the sunshine state wandered off. Yep, no doubt about it. At least for a late night stop put this club back on the map.

I went here about a month ago. I was the only customer and there was one dancer. She was attractive (about a 7). I opted for the private dance which was $100 for 4 songs. Private dance was very intimate, as intimate as money could buy, however was in the normal lap dance area so it could have been more private. Mutual touching was encouraged. She was very accomodating for 150 roses. I will be back!

I hadn't been here since last year sometime and I wanted to see how things were going. Stopped in on a Mon night. My usual ATF was not working, but she had told me she didn't work Mon or Tues nights, so I expected that. I hadn't been in my seat more than 1 minute before Jada approached and asked if I would like some company. I said OK and she sat and we chatted a bit. I don't think she took more than 2 min to ask if I wanted private dances. I agreed, 'cuz she was maybe an 8 on looks (at least not overweight like some of the usuals here), but then I noted the dancer on stage who looked familiar to me. Turns out it was Blaze with whom I had spent some good times in the past. Oh well, maybe next trip. Anyhow, Jada was like so many of the other reviews in that everything was rush rush. She basically counted out loud the end of the 1st song, the end of the 2nd, song, etc and made sure I knew I'd have to pay a 2nd "room charge" if we weren't out be the end of the 3rd song. How is that supposed to be enticing? Might as well have a big clock and a referee with a starters gun and a checkered flag. Too bad, 'cuz otherwise this could still be a good club.

Stopped in last Friday night around midnight. Lots of cars in the lot, about 8-10 customers and 6-8 dancers inside. Having never been here before, I was surprised at how strange the layout is. There is a large stage on the right hand side with little interaction from the customers during dances from what I saw. There is a non-alcoholic bar straight ahead, and a few couches on the left hand side of the bar. Most of the dancers were in the 4-7 range.

I took a seat on one of the couches, and immediately was approached by a dancer who asked if I had been there before and I told her I had not. The dances were 3 for $100 and $22 for the room. I was then informed that price was for regular dances, and there was a higher rate for the "special" dances. I told her I thought those prices were pretty high to begin with and I did not need to hear about the specials.

There was a steady parade of the other dancers after that all offering the same upsell. I was not interested and left shortly afterward for Ybor.

If you're intersted in extras, this is the club in Tampa, but understand that the price is high and the selection is few. I don't think I'll return.

Went here on a whim last month in search of "extra" special treatment. After looking around the place for a moment and being attacked by one of the three dancers there, I decided that this place wasn't what I'd pictured at all. They must be doing something right to stay open, but I just don't know what it is.
I was offered favors for a massively high price and in an extremely short amount of time. Fun it wasn't. I did not partake, and left sixteen dollars lighter.

I visited on a weekday night at around 9:00 pm. There were a lot of cars in the parking lot, but I only saw four dancers and a few customers. I guess the others were in the adult video store next door. I looked at most of the dancers and said, "Yuck!" One of the dancers I would rate a -2 (I couldn't believe I could rate a dancer like that!). The rest were 4 to 8's. Two of the dancers looked like they were on drugs. Each dancer had a 5 song set on stage. The dancers were very upfront on extras that would happen in the VIP room, but you had to finish in 4 songs. Each song was 3 minutes, so you had to finish in 12 minutes. I know I can't complete in less than 12 minutes. The best looking-dancer was Blaze (the "8" out of the bunch). She had a great body, but her face looked a little old. I did partake in the VIP room with Blaze. She had great backroom techniques, but I could not finish in the alloted time.

The cover charge is $16. With the cover charge, you get a coupon for a $1 drink. The room charge was $22 for 4 songs and $150 to the dancer.

If you want to seem like you have a club to yourself or you're looking for sleazy backroom activities, visit Lipstixx. For better looking women, you might want to visit Mons Venus instead. You won't get extras at Mons, but the women are beautiful.

It has been a while since my last visit to Lipstixx, so I stopped in to see if anything had changed. The parking lot had a number of cars in it, but when I got inside, there was only one other customer. The selection of dancers was far below that of any of the other popular clubs. Of the dancers there, a blonde spinner was the only one that caught my eye. She looked OK from a distance, however that changed the closer she got. I didn't hang out too long and moved on to some of the better clubs in Tampa.

Visited on a Friday night. I don't think I've ever been to Lipstixx on a Friday night before. There were several guys in the club and more dancers than I typically see on a weeknight. Good selection of girls. My ATF was onstage as I entered. While she was dancing I met a relatively new girl who sat with me and kept me company, even though I told her right upfront I was waiting for someone else. As always, the volume level of the music is relatively low, so conversation is easy; there's no annoying DJ; no big pressure. For me, it's great to see my ATF; but this time I managed to find some time for the new girl and it was great.

Dropped in tonight a Monday. As expected the place was not busy with only 3 dancers. A very thin blond with lots of tats and body jewelry talked me into the back room. Cost is steep at $140 for the girl and $22 for the door. In addition to the $16 cover. Back room service is as mentioned in other reviews. To bad for me Mr Happy was kind of quick on the draw. Girl did not mind took her money no problem. Check it out but don't expect to find a 10. More likely 4 to 5's but loads of fun if you want it.

Stopped in rather late on a Sunday evening. One might think with almost no one inside they might want a paying customer, but not this place! The guy at the front was such a jerk about answering a few questions about the women working this evening, the time they would close, etc, that it seemed he was paid for each customer he successfully turned away.

After about a minute of discussions with the guy I finally decided to leave, so they will likely never know how much money they lost by driving me away because of an unhappy employee.

Stay away, if they are like the attendant up front this evening.

Dropped in here on a Sat night just about an hour before the night shift dancers arrived. I had met an ATF here once before, not too long ago at about this time and was hoping she'd still be around. Not so. In fact, only one dancer in the whole club. She told me her name was Adora. She was a thin brunette who obviously had issues about her boobs. She never took her top off while on stage. She was pretty OK to look at so after a while I did ask her to go back for private dances. Again, not up to my ATF standards but reasonable. She just seemed hurried and, again, did not want to take her bra off. She finally lifted it up, and yes, the boobs were pretty small. But that's OK with me. At least they weren't fake.

Visited last Saturday night about 11:30pm. Cover charge is still $16, but included a drink (non-alchol). Only saw 2 other guys at the time, and one of them was going to a room with one of the dancers. I had one dancer (sorry, don't remember her name) approach me to join her on a couch. After explaining I was stopping by the area for the first time (I'm from the NorthEast), she gave me the layout and prices. I was a little surprised as to how open she was as to the backroom activities. She was an older woman whom I wasn't really interested in at the time, so after seeing her on stage, I decided to leave. Only 1 other girl in the club I saw, but others may have been in privates or in the dressing room.

As I saw the Stixx described at another website, it's like batting practice. Almost too easy to get a hit every time...

Saw one of my ATFs there tonight, Blaze. Every bit as good as the other reviewers indicated -- and I disagree w/ someone who gave her a 7. She's easily a 9, one of the hottest bodies ever found here, and ALSO provides great backroom service at reasonable price -- a very rare combo. Head and shoulders above anything else there tonight!

Club very dead, I was the ONLY customer for quite a while w/ 5 dancers. This created issues, as the girls other than Blaze who I went back with didn't want to dance on stage. Within moments of finishing up w/ Blaze, they all were all over me to go back again, w/o ANY time to rest. When I said I think I better wait a bit, I was told "this sucks, now we gotta go dance on stage". I had planned on staying for a 2nd round of dances and I like variety so was going to pick one of the other girls. But the bad attitudes turned me off, and I ended up leaving.

Blaze gets a 10, the bad attitude of other dancers pulls score down to 8.

Dropped in on a Friday night. I don't think I've ever been to this club on a Fri night. I was surprised to see several guys in the club and at least 7 or 8 dancers hanging around in the club. Usually there's only one or 2 other guys and one dancer on stage; typically, I think the other dancers hang out in their dressing room or someplace else out of sight. One of my ATFs was near the door with about 4 other dancers. She came up immediately and we hung out a little then spent some quality time in the private dance area. It's always good when she's there. This time, I must also agree with the other reviewers who give strong marks to Blaze. I met her a couple of times in the past and she is fantastic. I would hope to run into her again sometime, myself. I learned that Kitty has moved on. Just as well, really. Overall, I think the talent looked better on average than I've seen it here in a long time. Maybe this club is on a bit of an upswing.

It had been awhile since my last visit here, and it appears to have gone down hill. The dancer selection is the worst that I have seen at this club. I was there on a Saturday night and was the only person customer there for about 20 minutes. All the dancers were needing money real bad so there was alot of high pressure sales to go to the back room. The dancers rate in the 3-5 range with not much variety. $16 to get in (includes your beverage), $22 for the private room, and dance prices are negotiated between you and your dancer.

Was here last weekend and was quite lucky to hook up with Jade. This girl is very petite (a rarity at this club), perky B-cups, and a cute little ass. She gave me a fantastic deal for 3 "ultrafriction" dances (the guys who have been to this club should know that these are worth more than your standard $20 lap dances) for $120. On the downside, she was not quite as sensual as she could be and made the "dances" feel a bit rushed. Overall, however, a wonderful head-bursting time was had. I would give this a higher rating, but the rest of the club was awful as far as quality of girls and dreary atmosphere, not to mention the extra $38 you have to spend to get into the club and reserve the VIP!

On a recent trip to Florida I stopped in at this club.
Maybe it was the time I was there (weekday afternoon), but the quality was
not very high, and the place was kinda dead. I did not stay long. It might be
more lively at night, and hopefully the number and quality of ladies is higher.
There are better clubs in the Tampa area.

This place has had the occassional gem, so I went returned after having been disappointed a few months ago. I am sure glad I did!

One of my old favorites had returned. Blaze is a blonde beauty with great curves. She is very friendly and gives her all in the back room to make sure you are happy. This woman seems to have no limitations!

There is also a new blonde Brazilian named Stephanie who ooks like she would be tons of fun.

The place is never crowded, but some of the girls will really try to rus you once in back. It is worth the $16 cover charge to go in and take a look around.

With much doubt (due to recent bad experiences) I decided to give this club another shot this past weekend... perhaps because I was still a bit drunk after a long night out. Luckily, my experience this time around was much better. Again, most of the girls at this club aren't going to be the hottest by any means, but I did manage to "stumble into" Blaze. After some negotiating, I got her to take me to the back. I still ended up spending close to $200 all together this night, but I got a completely satisfying experience from Blaze. Although a bit older, she is still attractive. Her plastic funbags could use some retooling and her butt was a bit flabbier than I like, but all-in-all, still rates about a '7'. I wouldn't recommend this club for an every night kind of thing because there are so few good-looking women to chose from, but every once in a blue moon, a very enjoyable place to get your rocks off.

I hadn't been here in a year and a half, so I decided to check it out again. The quality of the girls has gone WAY down, but the rices haven't!

Not many men were here on a Saturday night, which tells you all that you need to know. I had my pick of the litter, but no one was close to being doable. I chatted wiht a few, but passed on all of them.

Still, if you are looking for fs in a nice safe environment, this would be the best you cna count on. I will go back in a couple months to see if it has improved.

I have to disagree with one item posted by Samella. I was just in on a Friday night about 730PM. I overheard one of the guys in the club ask a dancer if he could get back in if he went outside to smoke (the club is non-smoking) and she told him sure, no problem. So I am not so sure you have to pay to re-enter so long as you check with the guy at the door. I debated not coming in since it was the tail end of the day shift and my experience with day shift a couple of years ago was enough to give the club a "zero" rating. However, I thought if it was bad, I might just hang out until 8 (when I thought the shift change would occur). I was wrong about shift change... not 'til 830PM. But I was also wrong about the current day shift. The girl onstage when I entered turned out to be one of my long-lost ATFs from Ybor Strip. I hadn't seen her in years. She still looked great and I had a lot of fun catching up on old club-times with her. It was well worth stopping in. But again, that may be because she & I go way back. The term YMMV was never more applicable than here. And I think, as a rule, night shift is still the best bet. More girls, better talent is more likely. If you're looking for the "parade of 10s" head for Mons. That's what it's for. If you want a quieter setting and a chance to talk and not get endlessly harassed with "wanna dance?" , this place is much more laid back.

Went on a Sunday night, Oct. 15th, and to say it was disappointing is an understatement. This club seems to have really gone down in terms of talent over the last few years, although it's never been at the level of a Mons Venus in terms of talent anyway. $16 to get in, with NO re-entry allowed (that's right, if you wanna come back even a few minutes later, you will pay again!). Majority of the girls would rate between a 3 to 5, IMO. One dark-skinned latina was rather cute and had a great ass, but breasts were a bit saggy, and skin a little on the rough side. There was another cute white girl ("Shorty", I believe), nice and thin, with an above-average ass, who would only rate about 6.5 at a club like Mons. As far as up top, very stiff looking fake breasts on this girl (turn-off for me), but even so, she looked like a '10' compared to the rest of the "dancers". To top it off, the prices these girls were asking was outrageous. Sure, the mileage is much higher than at a regular strip club, but who'd want that with these girls, especially for the prices they were asking? Not anybody in their right mind, I would say. I tipped a few girls just to be courteous. The girls were pleasant overall, and the club was very roomy--the only things keeping me from rating it a '1'. Will not ever be back at this club though.

I had not been in town overnight in "forever" so I was looking forward to a return visit here. Since so much time had passed, I wasn't sure how things would go, but then you never are really sure... that's part of the excitement. Not much has changed. It's still very laid back. I was in about 9:30PM on a weeknight. There were, I think, 4 or 5 dancers. At any given time there were from 3 to 6 guys stage-side. The music is not very loud so it's easy to have conversations. You pay for a drink when you pay your covercharge at the door. A coupon is given at that time. The 1st girl I saw on stage looked pretty good. Frosted blonde hair, great smile, natural boobs, a few tastefully sexy tattoos and good stage presence/attitude. I made sure to tip her and when she finished she came over and sat with me. We made good conversation while watching some other dancers. There was never any pressure to go back. Other dancers included a nice looking black girl (some kind of Carribean accent) with really large natural boobs and a completely shaved kitty (I haven't seen too many black girls like that). There was a Hispanic dancer I've seen here before. She's a little heavy for my taste. Then there was a dancer who appeared to be from India. Real nice looker, too. After some good conversation I decided to spend some time in the private dance area and had a great time. I hung around the club a while longer and my dancer came back over and spent a little more time chatting (that almost never happens once you've finished your lap dances). She seemed genuinely interested in spending a little more time with me. After she departed I remained a bit longer kind of hoping the black girl with the Carribean accent would come over, but she never did. I still enjoyed watching her walk around the club in that cute bright orange little tiny thong she was wearing. She had a frame on her, that's for sure.
If you're looking for that jam-packed club where the "joint is jumping", this is not the place for you. If quiet, laid-back, get a chance to get to know a dancer is more to your liking then this can be a great place.

Quite a heavily publicized club in all of the local trade magazines and often a coupon for $ 5 off admission in the various publications. I went there on a Thursday night and was a bit disappointed. The club is not too big and there were really not that many women walking around. BUT, the few that were were actually very attractive. I would say 8-9 with a 10 or two.
The ladies are very friendly and come sit with you and put on very little pressure for dances. Of course, ultimately, the question comes up but is really quite natural. The lap dances are done off to the side and are semi-private. Good contact both ways can be had with the nice girl although, nothing like Mons Venus in terms of mileage; however the girls here can be more frisky with their own hands, IMO:)
A really pretty and great lap dancer is Brittney (? sp) with blonde hair and green eyes. She has a fantastic body and knows how to use every single bit of it.
Would have been higher score if more girls and more mileage...
