the ultimate strip club list

October 15, 2008  •  Vol. 15, Issue 288

I went to the Brass Pole the other night, the first time in a long while. Arrived around 9 and stayed a couple hours. It wasn't too crowded but it wasn't empty either. So it wasn't hard to get some attention. I like the way they keep this place up. It's on the small side, but clean and looks the way gentlemen's clubs used to look when they tried to be classy--white table cloths and candles. They have a private dance area along the side with divider screens that set them off somewhat. So you have some, but not total privacy. A VIP area is offered at one end of this area in what might be best described as a closet. It's got a rather big entryway and no door, so there is probably less privacy with the VIP than a regular dance.

I found a dancer I knew who used to work at Bugsy's and offered to buy her a drink, but before we could chat things up, one of her regulars came in so I had to give way to that. This opened the door to another girl next door type (6-7)who chatted and partied up very nicely. We got a private dance (not VIP) and she did all the right things.

I stopped by on a Monday afternoon about a week ago. I got there about 6 PM, there was a barmaid, 2 customers, and 1 girl. It was apparently a slow night. The building and club were real nice. Somebody spent some big money on it. But on the other hand there is nothing that I saw to make it special. I didn't do any private dances so I can't say much about that. I had one beer and left. It is an OK club but not worth going out of your way.

This place is a GEM. Arrived at 10:30 Sat. 7/14. Only three dancers, a nine, an eight and a five. But their dancing brought them up to ten's. Ten dollar nude lap dances with free roaming both ways. I do not drink but I did notice some beer bottles, do not know about hard stuff (drink anyway). Club is not fancy, parking lot is well lighted, I did not notice what the neighborhood was like. This is my first choice now when in the Cleveland area. Dancers keep their bikins on but to the side to show everything.

Living in the area, I've been to the club a few times. Parking is great, and plentiful. $5 to get in, drinks are about normal - $4/beer, $6 for mixed. Very nice bar area, clean and well kept. And a great TV to watch sports if you get bored. The dance area is well seen from the bar area and the surrounding tables. Also another big screen TV. The girls are nice looking, some better, some not. On a busy night, you will be asked if you want a dance, and if not, she will keep moving. On slower nights though, the girls spend some time with you, I've had some great conversations with them. Dances in VIP area are good, great contact, but if getting too much, bouncer will interupt. Not sure why, other then the laws for the area. There is a great bar manager there too, she has a nice personality and she always looks professional. I highly recommend this club.

This is a very nice, small club outside of Elyria. The parking area was well lit and adequate. I think it is a pretty safe neighborhood. The club itself is very clean and nicely decorated. There were five girls dancing when I was there. It was a very cold, snowy week night. All of the girls were young, friendly and very attractive. I've forgotten names but I was kinda disappointed when the prettiest girl took off her top and had piercings through her nipples. I'm not a big fan of piercings, tatoos or "enhancements". I bought a lap dance from the black girl and was disappointed to find that the dance was typical Ohio lame and tame. I was allowed to touch her somewhat but for a good part of the dance, she wasn't even close enough to touch.

Overall - Nice club, nice girls, very reasonable prices but crummy private dances. I can't give it any higher than a 7 because of the low mileage lap dance. All other aspects would rate much higher.

Of course - YMMV!
