the ultimate strip club list

September 7, 2008  •  Vol. 15, Issue 250

Went to vip's on a saturday around 4 pm. Place had a decent crowd for only being open for an hour. There were about 8 dancers on shift. All of them were pretty good looking with a couple of 8's and 9's. The bartender was probably the hottest. Pretty good vibe and very easy to get to. LD area was small, but private. Dance's were the usual $20 and worth it. I heard they have a downstairs, but didn't venture down there. All in all, a pretty good place and would definately venture back to check out the night time...

Small, with loud music. Had difficult time getting dancers to come to my end of the bar, but when they did they were very friendly. LD down the stairs and semi private.
Worth the effort as the two ladies I had dances with were very willing to make me happy.

I guess YMMV, but they seem to aim to please.

Neighbohood is a little sketchy at night, but no problems during the day.

This place is one you have to visit more than once to get an accurate gague of what it is like. My first visit was incredibly disappointing; I would have rated it a 2. But later visits were completely different. So you have to not make a snap judgment.

For me the location is great because it is right off 280, so it is easy to hit the place going home, just jumping off the highway and jumping right back on again. There is easy on street parking, and the area seems very safe to me. I have no sense that my car is going to be broken into.

The building is nondescript. Once inside, I found the initial impression negative. It looks like a dump, very dark and dingy. The irregularly shaped bar crowds almost the whole room, so there is very little you can do other than walk around and find a seat. The patrons are mixed; some working class, some professional; different races and ethnicities. Everyone seems pretty well behaved. The music is usually pretty loud and obnoxious.

The LD room is small, 3 or 4 seats, dingy, with little partitions, not much privacy.

There is also a back room, but no indication that it is there. I had no clue until a dancer told me.

The first time I went there, like I said, I was pretty disappointed. The girls were almost uniformly ugly. The best looking girl there was actually one of the barmaids. I thought, oops, walked into the wrong place.

However, on another trip home from work, I dropped in again, figuring I'd get a drink. It was as if I had walked into another place. The place was jammed with girls, and 60-70% of them were hot to very hot. I was stupefied -- what had happened? Both times I went it was a week night, around the same time, so there was no obvious explanation.

I was barely in the place 60 seconds (I hadn't grabbed a seat or taken off my coat) when I practically bumped into an incredibly hot girl with beautiful cocoa flavored skin, pretty face, perfect teeth, great body, huge tits. Crikey. She said hey baby how about a dance, and I of course readily agreed. Well the dance didn't last very long, because we were going at it so heavily that she said, let's go to the back room. What back room? Turned out there was a back room with couches, etc. I went for it. Downside: very pricey. Plus side: everything was on the menu except greek (well, I don't even know if that's true, I didn't ask).

After that was over I was a little shocked. How could this place be such a disappointing dump one day, and a hot little cathouse the next? I actually asked one of the guys working there, what happened that lit this place up all of a sudden. He said it was just hit or miss, depending on what night you happened to come in, and who happened to be there.

My subsequent experience has borne that out, but more often than not there has been a pretty good number of extremely good looking and compliant young women, and even in the LD room there is a fair amount of activity. When the place is not rocking, I just leave.

I cannot agree with some of the prior reviewers who said they had to wait around for a lap dance. My experience has been that within 5 minutes after I grab a seat (and sometimes before I have a chance to do so) a girl has sidled up to me. Then it's offer her a drink and a seat, chat a bit, and then off to the LD room. I bring a lot of $20s when I go to this place.

Despite my positive experience, I could not give the place a higher rating for 4 reasons: (1) no matter how you slice it, the place still looks dumpy; (2) the talent is hit or miss; (3) the backroom is overpriced; and (4) so many of the girls speak so little English that it is sometimes difficult to carry on even the barest conversation. I had one girl once who was absolutely smoking (and whose beautiful, huge tits were completely natural), but who spoke about 5 words of English. It was fun playing with her but I would have like to be able to talk to her as well.

I visited on a Tuesday evening (about 11 PM) in late August. There were maybe as many as 20 girls working, ranging from 5 to 8. This is an odd set up with the bar stretching completely around the stage with a fairly narrow walkway around. When I entered, the seats at the bar (probably about 40) were either occupied or saved. I stood for a while (dodging the DJ who decided to take a stroll around the bar with his microphone) until a seat opened up. I sat for about 20 minutes and during that time got approach only by one girl asking for a time. A few customers got lap dances in the back but for most of the time I was there the action was limited to about 5 girls on stage at any one time. I left after being there for about 30 minutes. I might go back to see if it is any different if less crowded.

I find this place to be a bit of a hidden gem. It is not in a good location, but there is plenty of handy and safe parking. Drinks are quite overpriced (except for the daily draft specials), but there are many fine and friendly Brazilian girls working at this club. Seems to be full of "regulars", but if you are patient you will enjoy yourself here. You do not have to go through too many "singles" for the tip parade. The attractiveness and friendly nature of the dancers makes this spot worthwhile if you find yourself in Northern NJ.

A few decent looking girls but not much private dance action. The girls dance on stage the circle the bar for tios and wait till you give them a dollar or two. Once in a while one of the girls will come over and ask if you want a dance;; but theay are few and far between. I did not see anyone that I wanted to drop any money on and besides I dropped about $50 in an hour on tips. I won't be back. Does Central of Northern NJ have any good strip clubs?
