the ultimate strip club list

a guy's guide to strip clubs

July 9, 2008  •  Vol. 15, Issue 190

This is one of four strip clubs in the entire state of North Dakota. It's mainly a neighborhood bar with a few strippers working. There are three dancers at a time, most of whom are traveling through working in other clubs in the Dakotas or Montana. Dancers do a twenty-minute set on stage and also perform $20 one-way contact lap dances in a semi-private area. Stage performances are supposed to start at 5:10 p.m., but that is dependent whether or not anyone is sitting at the stage area. Stage sets end at 12:30 a.m. and the bar closes at 1:00 a.m. It's open Monday through Saturday, closed Sunday.

Drinks are pretty inexpensive and there's no drink hustle by the dancers. To purchase a lap dance, the customer has to tell the bartender or bouncer who he wants a dance from and pay for the first one up front. If you want more dances you can pay the dancer directly. It's a slightly unusual system; if more than one customer requests dances from the same girl while she's on stage, they'll put you on a list.

Talent varies by week, as does take-out availability. It isn't a fancy bar but is clean and comfortable, and can be a lot of fun on the right night. Don't come in expecting Vegas (or Fargo, for that matter) and enjoy the local color.
