the ultimate strip club list

a guy's guide to strip clubs

I visited the Red Barn last Friday night, didn't have too much expectations since the infamous Grand Rapids ordinance is still on the books, but... I was greatly surprised, many girls, perhaps ten, and some very sexy ones, Victoria, Natasha, Porshia, Hollywood, etc. True, the girls still can not be naked but they try to make the best of a bad situation: skimpy bikinis, sexy lingerie and even pasties. A lot of customers, hard to find an empty space in the parking lot. Took a private dance from Victoria, beautiful girl, sexy body, nice dance but a little mechanical. Anyway, I intend to be back in a couple of weeks. The negative side: cover is expensive for a bikini club: $10.00, and worst: the restroom should be cleaned daily!!!

Oh how the mighty has fallen! This used to be my favorite place to go but the new no nudity law has made it boring-I guess i am going to have to find a new hangout. The place is clean, but there is just not any excitement here since the ordinance change. The girls were very friendly, as wqas the rest of the staff, but I just could not get into the groove of watching girls dance in thier bikini's, I can go to the beach in Muskegon for that. Overall, I gave the place a five for effort, but I will prolly spend my money elswhere from now on.

I visited this club last Sunday, I had not been there for several months. Because of the Grand Rapids ordinance against nudity every club in the city has become a bikini club, this has affected business badly: fewer customers, around ten when I was there, and fewer dancers, I saw just four. Granted, it was a Sunday, they tell me that Tuesdays and Saturdays are their best days. There was an annoying problem with the music, the computer was malfunctioning and stopped playing in the middle of each song and the DJ was unable to fix this situation. Thank God the girls had some CDs.

My rating of 8 is just because I had a great time, in spite of the bikinis and the computer, but I spent most of it with just one girl (Hailey), sorry I can not vouch for the other girls' private dances, even though on the stage they were pretty decent. And for some nudity you'll have to go to Lansing or Detroit, as long as the ordinance is in effect here in GR.



There are really not too many options here in Grand Rapids, Michigan. In the Red Barn, there are about 6+ girls at most times. The girls are not too bad looking, I'd say about 6-8 out of a 10. I guess the best thing about this place is that you can get in, hang out with naked girls, maybe get a less than great lap dance or two, and not end up spending too much $$$.
