Very mediocre exotic club. Beautiful women. The reason this gets two stars is basically the layout of the club is setup for failure. The stage is located right behind this bar that takes up the entire front area but the problem is the stage is 4 feet behind the bar so that the bartenders have access to serve drinks. The reason that’s a problem is because you can really reach out and throw tips at the women you like unless you ball up the money and throw it at them. So what the dancers do Is, after their roatation on stage, they walk around the front part of the stage behind the bar and almost demand that you tip them. The bar basically doubles as “perverts row” and they get upset if you’re just drinking but it’s the only bar in the house. They have maybe 4 tables with two seats a piece and the back wall for those who don’t want to sit at the bar but is very insufficient if you just want to drink. The affect of this set up makes for extremely rude dancers at time. I maybe tipped close to $200 sitting at the bar over a course of maybe 2 hours but this one dancer, who goes by Luna as well as a few others would get very rude if you didn’t tip them after their roatation on stage. It’s really not their fault it’s more of a indirect logistical failure on the layout of the club. Like i said, the women are BEAUTIFUL but they deserve to work at a club that doesn’t create that pressuring atmosphere.

Had a great time here. June, one of the dancers, kept our group well entertained the whole evening. She was absolutely lovely 💕Thanks for the fun night --- -1 star bc some dancers really do demand for tips for doing absolutely nothing. The girls asking for tips aren't friendly, aren't even presenting themselves or asking how are you, just straight up stare at u and ask for tips for existing and start getting mad and telling you " it's against the rules not to tip us, you can't do that " etc when its not our first or tenth rodeo .. Some need to fix their attitude.. U can't sit in a corner on ur phone, come up to us and beg for money, then get mad. Lot of potential customers wanna drop money but with these type of interactions it hinders it. Bad for business js

I love strip clubs. I come not just with the intention to tip the girls a dollar as they go around, but to throw money. I love Pumps as an institution in the neighborhood, but last night was very bad and I believe my last time I’ll be coming to Pumps. My boyfriend has never been to Pumps, so I took him on Halloween night for his first time. We got there and the stage—for several minutes—was completely empty while the girls sat on the side and were on their phones. When they were on stage? Most of them CAN’T DANCE. There’s the bare minimum happening. The girls are beautiful, yes, but a lot of them can. not. dance. There were two or three girls that I threw money on because they could dance or at least were giving effort, but everyone else was pretty lackluster. We ended up leaving with half the money I exchanged, not including the other hundred that I didn’t bother to exchange because we were not entertained at all. It hasn’t been amazing the last few times I’ve been here and that’s okay, but it was pretty bad last night and I think my tries for having a good night at Pumps has run out. Shoutout to the few girls that did dance and do their thing tho.

Girls are super hot, and they have all different types. No cover. You tip each girl a dollar when she's dancing on the stage. There is no expensive bottle or room service, just dances and drinks. Very laid back experience.

Pumps has a great atmosphere. I enjoyed drinking and the lovely ladies there. I fell in love with this one bartender Emma. A total 10/10. She took care of me and made me feel special shes divine. I’m going back just to see her again and grab a drink after work

This is my first time in any “adult entertainment” establishment and this is a good one to start if you’ve never been to one. Drinks aren’t too expensive, it’s small and the women are pretty. Mariah, the white and Mexican one, is my favorite. Just don’t be afraid to politely tell the dancers you aren’t interested if you don’t want to be hounded. Great place overall.

I don’t like the fee system here that you’ll give a tip to each stripper after they finished dancing. It cost so much here than other strip club.

Went to pumps the other day, had an amazing time thanks to the wonderful bartender Emma! She was so kind, fun, funny and welcoming! Everything else was great too, but Emma really stood out. I'll definitely be back to see her soon

My wife and I were on honeymoon in NY and were a little nervous about entering a strip club for the first since they don't have them in Florida, but we had a ball! It was a chill vibe, the bartender was very attentive, and the girls were unforgettable. Engaging conversationalists and so so beautiful, all of them.

I read a lot of these reviews and honestly don't know what a lot of these guys are expecting. If you bring cash and do the bare minimum of tipping girls who spend their time with you, it is a fantastic experience...it is a STRIP CLUB after all. The bar itself is small, but super inviting and utilizes the space well. The drinks are similarly priced to any place you're going to find in BK. The girls are smoking hot and super concerned about making sure you are comfortable and having a good time. I will be coming back and bringing some friends!

Pumps is actually a fine establishment, but they need to vett their girls better. After conversations with two wonderful ladies, I then had the misfortune of being approached by "Ladonna". She pushed our conversation into places that were clearly making me uncomfortable, and was persistent about it. I think maybe she thought I wanted a "deep conversation" but really it felt a bit intrusive and really destroyed the vibe. I come to a place like this to be casually flirted with, not have my private life be pried into, something that the other girls understood, while Ladonna did not. She then very aggressively demanded a 10$ tip for the privilege of having my night ruined. This review comes down as soon as I have proof that Ladonna be asked to no longer dance at Pumps.

A variety of really hot and fun girls, better stage work / more entertaining than most clubs in nyc and affordable drinks. As long as you tip the girls $1 after their stage set, everyone is welcoming. $20 lap dances. Especially great if you like tattooed / alt girls, they make up about half the dancers on any given night

My boyfriend and I had a blast here, talking to the gorgeous dancers and having super fairly priced drinks all night. Yes, you have to give a buck to the girls when they pass by (one girl was more aggressive and asked for $2 after dancing far from us) but other than that everyone was super reasonable about tips, which we were happy to give in exchange for a difficult job! We got a lap dance from Roxy who is stunning! Only thing to note is that lap dances are not topless! Great experience!

One of a kind strip club. Best in NYC. Girls are Super hot and really friendly. Cool for big or small groups, couples, friends, or going solo. They will take care of you.

I don't know what other female customers were complaining about, I'm a woman and had a great time here. Variety of hot girls with all different looks, everyone was very friendly. Drinks are basic and what you would expect at a dive bar. Yes the venue is small. Tip the dancers $1 when they come around and they will be happy. It averages out to spending $8 per 15 min stage set, or $32 per hour, to see tons of boobs... they aren't getting naked for free and I think it's a great deal. You can sit in the back if you don't want to tip every girl.

My fiancé stops here before work every day. I don't blame him, they have so many different kinds of breasts. Big ones, small ones, pointy ones, prickly ones, and everything in between. Wow getting excited just thinking about it. Would give five stars but I wasn't allowed to bring my Burger King inside. Have you tried their new flame grilled chicken fries? Out of this world. Crispy, tender, and all around pleasure to the buds. Anyways, overall a great place with chill vibes.

There is no hospitality in this club. I was treated like shit. All i ask was a simple question. I wanted to know about their hours however the bouncer was being very rude and impolite. He wanted to fight with us about the question we asked politely. Aggressively he wanted to fight someone and wanted to put hands. He didn't have any manners at all. Unfortunately as a a business owner, I do not want to have to deal with any rude bouncers. He told me to get the fuck out with.

I had an amazing time here with my girlfriends last weekend! All the dancers are very pretty, friendly, and sweet. I spent wayyyy more money than I intended to but it was well worth it. The drinks were strong too which definitely made me a little looser with my singles lol. Here's a tip for people coming to a strip club & complaining about tipping the girls: GO TO A REGULAR BAR! Why would you come here if you're not going to tip the dancers? It makes no sense. If you're looking for a good time, good entertainment, and you're not a cheap ass... Go to Pumps!

It's a not of a bad club as I see the other reviews. The club is in a industrial warehouse-ish area so it's unique from the typical strip clubs that are on a side street a few feet away from the usually high populated areas. The cover is free. The only thing you have to go through is the typical security ID verification to make sure that you are legally allowed to go to the club, they use a machine to verify the id is not fake. There is no coat check. The security pat you down to make sure you have no weapons. There is a mandatory drink buy, just ask the bartender the cheapest drink there and they will take any type of payment such as cash and credit/debit card(with the fees). If you don't want to drink, just ask the bartender to give it to one of the dancers just make sure that you buy the drink. The dancers are beautiful. Just like any other strip club in the city, you will have your variables of the strippers. The dances are $20 for a 4 minute dance(they have a big sign telling you that next to the semi private room). The club makes you pay for the dance before you get the dance(cash or credit card). They have a change machine so you can take those $20s and turn it to 1(bartender does it). It's a narrow club. It depends on how you make it the time you go to the club. It's all about having a great time. Thanks.

I would give this place s negative. Came with my male friend... Two drinks $20, .... Easily 16 girls... None anything much to look at .... Danced we did not even peek we just enjoyed convo. Couple girls flirted, walked away. One girl snarky and rude told us we had to tip every girl that walked by. Second round... $20 .... Tipped one girl that was at least cute... Another girl came up and said again we have to tip every girl that walks by or sit in the back. And this came from the bar tender where I am over spending and tipping her. It is Monday night we are the only people actually spending money at the bar... And there are way to many girls to tip every girl that walks by, especially when they aren't worth my while because they are rude

I use to love coming here with my husband. Lately we stopped because the girls are a bit rude. Before the gurls would come up to me and talk dance etc... Now they look at me with disgust. I felt like they dont accept girls here. Also there were incidents that the strippers over exaggerated with. One got mad that we crumpled up a dollar and threw it at her she said we "assaulted her " with the dollar. I feel like if you dont want females in there theb say it at the door. There's no reason to be rude but still demand money . Other then that the drinks are good and strong also reasonably priced ...

This is a RACIST place, we couldn't even get in because we were black it was 3 of us, myself and 2 other girls. They checked our IDs and we were standing waiting to get in (absolutely no line mind you) and we joked we were trying to apply to dance here but the security or whoever was just like "oh yeah we'll see about that." That was where the weirdness began. So me and my friends were just waiting to get in and there was zero line nor was it packed to capacity so we were so confused why are we just standing here for no reason waiting so my friend was jokingly like "why are we not getting in is it cause we're black" and the guy got soo weird and quiet, didn't answer, and then was just like you know what y'all need to go and we were so lost like what's going on so I guess because we didn't immediately leave he decided to physically push us out. We were already inside in the area by the bar above the stairs so he PUSHED US DOWN THE STAIRS, as if we were physically threatening him or refusing to leave. We are not that pressed to be anywhere that you have to physically force us to leave, please. We were small girls the fact that you had to put your hands on us is ridiculous!! And for no reason. I'm still trying to understand what happened. My friend was even bleeding and hurt. I took pictures. Never come to this ridiculous place.

I literally created a Yelp account to warn people about this terrible excuse of a business. I'm visiting from out of town, so take that for what you will, I'll admit I'm not used to the way 'things are' as some defensive reviewers have mentioned. That being said, if this is your idea of a strip club, or a respectable business, I feel sorry for you. Walked in, bouncer was nice enough, patted us down, checked ID's. Then met quite possibly the most rude bartender I've ever met. My buddy ordered a beer and before he even had the opportunity, she was annoyedly asking if he would like to, "tip his bartender." He did, as he would have if she gave him the chance. We then learned of the fatal flaw of sitting at the bar. Because of how stupidly designed this establishment is, the stage is behind the bar. Which you wouldn't think was that big of a deal until (as other posters said) EVERY dancer hounds you for money when they get done dancing. Three girls demanding money from us after every song. "They don't work for free, they don't take shit!" -other yelp reviewers I agree you should tip your dancers, but if I'm not looking at you, you are not entitled to my money. These girls are extremely entitled to demanding your money whether you were watching or not, interested or not. And because of the placement of the bar there is no such thing as just sitting at the bar enjoying your drink. I've been to nice strip clubs, the girls dance (on stages that are separate from the bar) and you can CHOOSE to go to the stage when you want to tip. You have no choice in this place...of dancer, of what songs to tip after. Random girls who I didn't even see dancing just appeared in front of us behind the bar staring at us and demanding money until you appease them to just make them go away. Behind the bar it says, "if you ain't got no money take your broke ass home." That's not just a quippy fun quotation, they mean that to their core. You will not be treated politely. You will not have the option to enjoy your drink (We were hounded for money 5 times in 10 minutes). You will not get anything for your tips in terms of positive personal attention. You will feel uncomfortable. And you will leave realizing you were not paying money for a service, you paid money in hopes of being left alone by the vultures that nest in this shit hole excuse of a bar. Honestly, I believe these positive reviews are either fake or these poor schmucks don't know what a respectable bar or strip club is and how it operates. And if anyone from Pumps reads this, your establishment is a glaring testiment to how establishments can stay open by gauging first time customers at the expense of returning guests. I'm amazed you're still around if this is how you operate and the good reviews I've seen online baffle me.

Worst Gentlmens Club In Brooklyn, And I would say in New York in general but I havent been to every Gentleman's club in New York. Girls aren't cute at all and they ask fro tips just cause they smile at you. Everyone budget feeling walking into this place, it's like really bad.

Hot girl next door types there's a good variety here. No cover and average price drinks for a strip club. I like coming for happy hour during the day. The bartenders are cool and the girls will actually have a decent conversation with you instead of just asking you for a dance in a foreign language like other places. They seem like down to earth neighborhood girls. If you sit at the bar they dance for a song and come up to you topless for a tip so make sure you bring enough$$ to spread love the Brooklyn way.

I am so sad that the negative reviews mostly come from women that were sitting next to their boyfriends... whats up laddies? I didn't know you wanted strippers to make eye contact with you but when you hand of the money to them YOU don't look them in the eye. When I was in Pumps I was indeed with my boyfriend at the time but never did i notice that they werent noticing me. I was noticing them for sure. This is a very unique place. Is it perfect? sorry but its kinda tiny... sorry but some of the girls legit have no sense of dancing in them. Also its great for the dancers that people don't pay covers and such but every dump asshole can get in and hang out. there are titties here man! Pay some respect. If you ain't got no money take your broke ass home yup yup

Loved this bar so much. It's small and the dancers are right behind the bar, with a small room in the back too. You get to chat with each of the performers up close and personal. The drinks were decent (albeit a bit expensive for E Williamsburg). May not be for everyone but I'll be back - atmosphere was great.

I came to this bar years ago when I was in my early twenties I'm 41 right now now that I look back in those times the drinks were a little cheaper and they had beautiful Brazilian women that was so sweet now they got some ghetto hood rats that's not sweet at all they will get mad at you if you don't tip them you have to tip them every time they're next to you so I would rather give this place a 4 because a five-star with mean for them to give me a damn break

Place is awful. Was sitting at the bar having a drink, waiting for a friend and literally not even looking at the dancers, so why would i tip them? So the security guard (who actually wasn't a bad guy) came up and said I have to sit in the back if I'm not gonna tip. Mind you, the place was almost completely empty, and sitting in the back means moving 3ft to some tables in back of the bar where you could still see the dancers just as good anyway. What's the fucking point? Also, $10 for a shitty club soda and vodka? Ive been to 5 star restaurants that don't even charge that much. The girls were definitely cute, but otherwise the place sucks, don't waste your time.

PUMPS!!!!!!! Pumps is right up there for me with Duff's. It's a place I know my friends from back home in Ohio would love - because it's dirty, trashy, and very rock n roll. It's everything yo mama told you not to do in life. And because of this, it is perfect. There is an electric sign over the bar that says, "if you ain't got no money, take your broke ass home," or something like that. Drinks ARE too expensive, but then it's a bar with strippers, so what do you expect. None of the strippers are particularly hot, either, which only adds to the charm of Pumps. When I was here for my cousin's birthday, one of the strippers was doing a terrible job of hiding the fact that she was about 5 or 6 months pregnant. Just sayin. No one hassles you here, which is nice, but if you sit at the bar, the strippers will shove their titties in your face and insist that you put a dollar there. I was pretty broke when we were here, so I stayed away from the bar, which is a nice option to have. My drunken birthday-boy cousin spent much time picking out the stripper he wanted to give him a lap dance... not that there was a plethora of awesomess to choose from, which made it even better... and I think that may have been his favourite birthday present. Way to be thirty, you dirty old man. :D Pumps is the best! Beat lookin' strippers with bad tattoos and outdated lingere, a mix of shady/hip/random clientele, and a location where, if you don't want anyone to know where you are... they won't. I love this place.

We went here this weekend for my friend's bachelorette party. I love a good strip club, and as I walked in here I realized that not only have I driven past it many times, but also it's the FIRST strip club I've ever been to in NYC! I don't know, somehow I expected that a NYC strip club would either be more expensive or less welcoming than in other towns. Pumps proved me wrong on both counts! First off, there's a small parking lot which was much appreciated. Second, our group of mostly queer women didn't get a single weird look or annoying comment as we walked in. Third, no cover charge on a Saturday night! The place is small, but wasn't too crowded, and the strippers dance right behind the bar so it's a convenient two-for-one experience to sit at the bar. My girlfriend told me before we went that this is the kind of place with "busted" strippers who have "c-section scars" and such. Wrong! These were mostly hot women with diverse body types and, yes, the occasional scar. My favorite was that one of them was visibly pregnant and still hanging upside-down on the pole. We bought our friend a lap dance where the stripper had to remind her to breathe because she was so petrified/delighted. It was very sweet. I'm told I'm not supposed to feel special that several of the girls flirted with me and touched me. I guess it's true that they walked away once I said I didn't want a lap dance. Still, I feel special and that's all that matters. I will be going back to Pumps soon!

You can write extensively about strip club etiquette, but this review is to help other customers understand the culture of this locale. I've been to many strip clubs and titty bars, from New York to New Orleans to Houston to Portland (all the fabulous strip club capitals). In my experience, this place simply not any fun at all. I found it boring, trite and after a while, bothersome and uncomfortable. I just wanna chill, not be interrupted every five minutes by an aggressive girl. This was most similar to my experience at Magic Garden in Portland, except there you can sit at the bar, enjoy great tunes and microbrews on draft. You can sit at the stage if you want, and pay a dollar (or more) per song as usual. You don't really have an option here, and there's like half a dozen girls around demanding tips even as you are just sipping your beer. Maybe this place is so small it's awkward. I prefer a more chill, plush atmosphere and girls going for the long game.

Authentic 'old school' titty bar. Diverse array of girls and clientele.The only place around offering alterna-chicks! Hot, suicide girl-types, as well as classy ethnic dancers. While this is the least expensive of strip clubs (4 dollar beers during happy hour!), this is still a strip club/ a place of business. You wouldn't go out to eat if you couldn't afford to tip your server, so don't come here if you're broke. That being said, this is still the best-kept secret in Brooklyn, and a steal-of-a-deal in terms of seeing hot chicks topless.

Pretty Chill atmosphere. Some girls are gorgeous and others are mediocre looking. Some girls are very skilled pole workers/dancers. There is a lot of humor to the seemingly desolate location, that is actually so close to the epitome of Hipsterness. P.S. This place is female friendly and couple friendly.

The drinks weren't as pricey as we had expected or had read. Some of the women were okay. Most were just average like women you'd see in your neighborhood. We had a pretty good time because a) we had no expectations, b) there was a pretty fun group of women that we socialized with that were sitting next to us and we enjoy people watching, c) we didn't sit at the bar. The last reason is the most important. When sitting at the bar you have to deal with perhaps the worst characteristic of Pumps and that's the women expecting to be tipped. We came in, ordered a drink and about 10 seconds later a woman comes down and asks if we were going to tip her. Cookie, we haven't seen you dance. It's absurd to think that just by being here we should reward you with money. We've seen breasts and the rest of a woman's body before. So could you maybe give us a reason to want to tip you other than asking for it? They would do better by asking for dances. It's less of a weird feeling to refuse a dance and maybe if they asked enough you would finally give in based on their personality. Just some advice from a guy that's gone to a strip club or two in my day. We gave her some lame excuse about needing ATM money and she walked away pissed off. At that moment we decided it best to take a table away from the bar so as to survey the place. No one bothered us after that. Women came by, smiled and a few even stopped to chat. But no one seem to have entitlement about our money. The other reviews that mention that part are pretty spot on. So rather than sit at the bar and witness firsthand women shoving their breasts in our faces and demand we tip them we moved out of firing range. Over all, if you go with good company, no or low expectations, take your own cash, as I hear the ATM is an arm and a leg, you should have a good time. Again, the drinks weren't bad. They weren't pricey at all. There were probably about 3 women there that we would have gotten dances from, but we just ended up leaving and never got around to it. Our evening's highlight was watching a group of lipstick, coed-type lesbians get drunk enough to go behind the bar, take to the pole, make out with each other on stage and take off their clothes and hump each other, the poles, the stage and the other girls to Katy Perry's "I Kissed A Girl". Yeah, me thinks there's a jukebox and they waited ALL night for their song to come on. After this they made good friends with the women working there. They got shirts. They kind of hung around the area where the dancers come and go from the dressing rooms and continued to have the time of their lives. Good for them. Good for everyone. p.s. Security and staff were cool enough. No hassles.

What a legitimate waste of a space for a strip club. I decided to pop in a Monday night because Brooklyn doesn't have too many good, legitimate strip clubs. I figured Monday night it would be nice and slow and I would go and throw it up, throw it up, throw it up some more and just ball out and have a good time. Perfect way end to a Monday-Funday night. Could have I picked a more worse spot to come to? The place was virtually empty and the women inside were not even that attractive at all. I know it's a Monday night but still give me some incentive to come back over the weekend. Rather than hastily leaving, I gave Pumps the benefit of the doubt and sat down to have a drink, got some singles and was just relaxing and reluctantly tipping some women here and there. I'm a supporter of working women but these women were barely working anything at all. Of course, it really didn't matter, I still gave them a tip because maybe someone was having a rough night but were ALL of them having a bad night? Highly unlikely. I spent a few dollars, had my drink and saved my money for another night. Best thing, there was no cover charge. Maybe they were used to men who just come in and spend just one or two dollars and not used to people throwing it up. Somebody lend Pumps some air, they need help, desperately....

Don't be fooled by the unassuming facade, this delightful establishment is sure to enthrall and gladden even the most discerning of clientele. As you step into the recondite portico and emerge into the foyer, you're greeted by the charming maître d' who kindly invites you to unburden yourself of any ungainly ordnance. Expect the unexpected as you peruse the unique carte du jour selections. The chilled libations are delivered promptly by courteous and amiable attendants, while the presentation and plating is consistently top-notch. Towards the rear of the venue you'll espy a caliginous alcove where you may rub eyeballs with the beguiling contessa(s) of your predilection. Indeed, Pumps is not for the naïve, nescient, maladroit tenderfoot, but rather for the most adept gourmand. Bon appétit!

Straight up five stars. I spent about three hours here on a Friday night. I've been to strip clubs before and this is best you're gonna get for your money. There's no cover. A dance is $20. A beer is $6. Honestly you don't find that anywhere. Even outside of NYC. Yea expect to pay girls when you sit at he bar. But otherwise buy a dance and enjoy the show. The girls are fun and sexy.

This is a strange strip club. I do recommend coming at least once for the experience. There is no stage and all of the girls dance behind the bar and then come shaking their boobs at you for dollars after they are done dancing. The bartender was a bit surly at first, but kind of loosened up a little after we tipped her. Coors light is 7 bucks but that is what you get for going to a titty bar. The girls weren't that gross and my friend and I giggled as we selected a girl for our joint lap dance. We are straight girls, so we were there for fun and not really anything lecherous. The lap dance was mild, I am sure because she could tell that we wouldnt want it any other way. The other guys in there were getting much more rubbing...friction? I dont know, I was trying not to watch. Ew. I wonder what they thought about me and my pal giggling in the corner. All in all, it was a fun drunken night and I can check that off of my list of places to go.

The guys at the gate yelled at me for nothing. The girls had a bra and turned out this was not a strip club at all. The drinks were excessive and made a decision to never come back

It was an innocent Thursday afternoon in early April. I had a nice day at work and decided to take off for the bar a little early. Next thing I know I'm being whisked away in an SUV with five of my buds on our way to PUMPS; it was dark, I was drunk, and I had a little too much cash on me. I'm 27 now, and I hadn't been to a gentleman's club since I was 20, and from all the stories I'd been told about Pumps being a relic, a direct descendant of long lost titty bars, I was intrigued to say the least. This place is in no mans land so taking a cab or car is a must. Once you're given the go ahead you'll walk into Pumps with wild thoughts going through your head. You're obviously going to make it rain so get your cash out and get ready to be late with rent next month. I'll keep this short and less explicit than I really should as to not incriminate myself, but Pumps is the tits, seriously. Good looking girls that look like they go to NYU or spend most of their day hanging out on Bedford. I will say that the lap dance room is a little small and having to look another man in the eyes while he's getting his $20 lap dance isn't ideal, but who cares? Just go with an open mind, open wallet, and try not to wake up with a strippers number on your arm. You're girlfriend will not appreciate this.

This makes me sad. When I lived in the n'hood by this place (mmm three or four years ago)...it was not this...whatever that was. And it was a Saturday night/Sunday morning. Semi full. Super sad. June 6, 2015...not sexy. Not worth the 3 drinks for twenty five dollars. Really walked in with my sister and boyfriend...and left right back out. In my glory days of this place, lot more diverse dancers and body shapes. And fun. Like the girls actually wanted to be there. Light hearted. Random ass slaps from dancers. Talking about make up and work out routines while getting a lap dance. Maybe its a girl thing. Dunno. Its all pale tattoo hipster (white and spanish...maybe two black girls... maybe) chicks...saddest coke clowns in town. No body. No spunk. The two stars is for thankfully cover free. And I must say I got a kick out of the do nothing chicks getting into it with my sister to give her a tip because "we're working here m'kay..." Clearly not. That's not working, bitch...coming from a chick whom sampled clubs down the east coast and a sister whom use to be a private dancer her damn self. Like Ru Paul would say..."You betta work wirk werk..." I'm not one for lazy. Godness...y'all need stripper charm school or new talent...give fucks bosses. I'll spend my generous dollars on another jem elsewhere.

The seats are only by the counter. Theres no back seats so literally every song you are pressured to tip the ladies after every song. The girls here are subpar. Diversity ladies yes but far away from attracting good ladies. Been here twice -- once weekday and weekend. Had to deal with the half eyed assed owner twice due to finishing up my drink and forcing me to pay another $7 bucks drink after tipping and buying 3 beers as accordingly to maintain my stay.
