What is going on there. I saw red carpet, bouncer dude. Are they getting more classy? Any info? Did they change cover/drink prices?
Cheetah's pricing on VIP and LOFT
Ok, guys, my days of SC mongering are done, now that I have a GF who works here, but that wont stop me from sharing intel...THE VIP is now $75 for the hour (still 150 for the girl every 30 minutes) and even better the new loft rooms (which you have a closed door) are the same price until 10:00 PM (also the VIP) as said before the SC's are getting hurt because of the economy...There is one girl that you guys need to have in the VIP is Brooke...stunning brunette she will have her way with you if you play it right...
You should've gone to Babes!
[QUOTE=Shade Tree]I went exploring FIB for the 1st time, I am kinda new to ATL. Went in Rileys and it looked like management makes the girls leave their asses in the car or check them into a locker or something. I shot across to Wax and there were some really hot black chicks inside, but the longer I sat there, the more I realized that I wasn't seeing tits and ass. I looked closer and there was TAPE on titties. Took a chick to VIP and she said four words that blew my mind. "I CAN'T GET NAKED". WTF!
Anybody know what's up with that place? There were some fine, tight. But clothed. Women in there. [/QUOTE]Babes is still the business.
Went Wed around five. Admission is free before eight, after eight, you're coming out 20 bucks just to get in.
No airdance here, buddy, not at all. Was approached by about 14 different women, four or five hot on BHL's rating system. I like the thick GA peaches, so I was very happy when the first thick one I received a dance from, took the initiative on herself to reach into my sweats and pull the piece out and place it under my oversized Tee (take notes, that is the standard uniform). She did her grind on the piece, and after four songs, I told her to take a break. She never came back though, as the next time I saw her, she was on her way out due to the shift change. Oh, I hinted around to her about getting some baby oil, and she said that would have to be done in the VIP. She also asked what exactly did I want in the VIP, and I told her I wanted everything she's willing to give up, hell. She said we'd have to get a set rate, but since neither of us had a condom, oh well.
Oh well, there was another who had approached me and once I saw the first one wasn't coming back, it was her turn at bat. She didn't disappoint at all, literally pulling my piece out the sweats and rubbing it down through my shirt BEFORE I paid for the first dance! That's one hell of a way to advertise, I think.
She was super thick, but still in shape and sexy with it, her face wasn't the greatest, maybe a 6. 5, but her personality (could hold a conversation almost as well as she can hold. Well, you know) made up for it. After about two dances from her, mentioned the baby oil, and she was more than happy to oblige. Took a break after about four songs, she came back and said "Let's go to the VIP so I can get that nut up out 'cha. " Fair enough. Even worked out a buy three get one free deal on the songs. Paid 25 to get back there and 10 per song. After about four songs, she told me to stand up with my back on the wall, and placed a cover on me, after that standing doggie 'till BHL couldn't take anymore. Total VIP damage 25 (room) + 65 (entertainment)= $90.
No matter what, these A-Town strip clubs know how to get about 200 out of you, but I had a great time.
Dirty Ratt's Reviews & Ratings
This is a mainly after hours spot. It is mainly a black club, with a little drop of diversity every now and then. The strippers there are not of the highest quality. As a matter of fact, just about every time I'm there I see a new set of dancers.
I think this club might be a swingers club during the week and a strip club during the weekend. I've only been there for the strip club part. Anyway, this strip club is a bit unusual. You pay $30 at the door and you get free drinks all night long, but you're required to tip the waitress a mandatory $2 minimum for their service in bringing you the drink. If you drink a lot of alcohol it might be worth the price.
This used to to be an "anything goes" type of club. As you go in you will see a few TV's on the wall playing porno movies. That should tell you what type of spot you're in. They've been busted a few times so they cleaned up their act a bit, just a bit. The lap dances are pretty high mileage depending on the girl, but you won't get full attention during your lap dances. Some of the dancers will still pull your little soldier out for some touching, but won't do too much with it on the dance floor. There is a liberal VIP room for $100 to the house and you negotiate with the dancer. I've never been in the VIP (because of the high price) but I know for a fact it goes down. There are still other ways to take care of business without having to go to the VIP room.

Goosebumps Reviews & Ratings
8/7/08 visit
---------
This is a black club that tries to cater to the business community. It's the only black strip club in the downtown Atlanta area. The clientele is mixed. I saw more white customers there than blacks - something unusual for an Atlanta black strip club.
This is a fairly small club and can get crowded pretty easily. The club was kinda slow up until around midnight. Most of the girls there were slim to medium build. If you're looking for the thick, big booty girl this isn't your spot. The dances offered little or no contact. The dancers looked professional and were very involved in chit chatting with their customers. It was pretty obvious they were targeting the customers who looked like they were on business trips.
I had previously been told by a "fun" dancer from Dirty Ratt's that Goosebumps is definitely relaxed and liberal. So, based on that recommendation I visited the club to have some VIP fun. After sitting around for about 2 hours and observing the scene I didn't see much VIP action. I also didn't get many offers for take out action. I was told though by a dancer there that the day shift offers a little bit more liberal fun. But based on what I saw there during the night shift I doubt this club is still as liberal as it used to be back in the day.

Made a quick visit to Goosebumps last night after seeing a trail of cars in front of the club. Paid $5 for parking and got a "first time free" card from the parking attendant. Normally the cover is $10.
Anyway, I'm still trying to figure how there can be a trail of cars outside the club but only a few people inside the club. It seems to me that there were more dancers than customers. I must say though that the selection this time was a little better. More quantity and more quality. The dance mileage was also slightly better. Most girls gave me air dances with little contact. But I found a couple whom I told I wanted some freaky dances and they gave me a whole lore more contact. She was reaching for my little soldier quite often during the dances, but still not like what I'm used to at some of the other black SC's. You can't do too much on the dance floor though mainly because there isn't a private corner in this club.
I didn't get asked for VIP but I did inquire. Once again, I was quoted $50 for the room and $20 per song. But one girl told me that she wouldn't go to VIP unless I agreed to spend at least $100. Based on the info I got from a fellow SC connoisseur I decided not to participate. Anyway, this spot is cool if you want to chill for a minute with a beer and some naked girls. I just stayed around for 2 hours then went home.

Pleasers Playhouse Reviews & Ratings
I stopped by that spot hoping the name might imply something. Unfortunately I was wrong. In summary, there was no "pleasing" going on there. The size of the club is about average by Atlanta standard. The cover charge was also the standard $10 fee.
Once you enter the club you see the bar on your right hand side and the main stage straight ahead. Near the stage there are a few chairs where you can get a nice table or lap dance. When I looked around I didn't see any high mileage lap dances at all. Once you walk past the bar you see the VIP rooms and the second stage in the back. There is less lighting there and you could potential get slightly higher mileage lap dances there. Again I looked around and did not see much contact.
The girls are not as attractive as the other black SC's. I like 'em thick, but I also like 'em with a flat stomach. They definitely got the thick part. They need to work on that stomach though. Some also had a couple of stretch marks. Anyway, I got a few air dances from one of the more attractive girls there. I tried some contact but she signaled VIP for that. I figured at $10 a dance for VIP I'm not losing much. The VIP dances were slightly more contact but not even close to being as good as regular lap dances at Blaze or Dirty Ratt's. I just got 2 VIP dances and then I left the club. Overall it's a cool spot if you want to find a spot to chill, drink a beer and watch some naked girls. But don't expect much more than that.

Queen City Reviews & Ratings
I've been told that this is one of the historic black strip clubs in Atlanta. It's located within a 5-minute drive from Magic City.
I was there on a week night and was truly baffled. Patrons of the black strip club scene know that there are 2 types of black clubs. There's the type with nice, sexy girls that offer low mileage (e.g. Strokers, Body Tap, Magic City). The other type is the club where the girls aren't too pretty but where extras are readily available in or outside the club (Club Wax, Dream Girls). For some odd reason this club has combined the worst of both worlds. The girls were not pretty at all and the club had a 2-foot policy; WTF! The dances were virtually all air, and the dancers had the nerve to walk around and ask for tips after their dances on stage. On top of all that, the DJ kept bugging the customers to tip the dancers on stage. Note that whenever a DJ has to stop playing his music to force the customers to tip the dancers, it's a sign that the club needs more attractive dancers. The only positive thing about this club is that dances are still $5 apiece and that parking is free.

Body Tap Reviews & Ratings
I visited this spot with a female friend who used to strip there before it was remodeled. This spot is not for the broke men. The cover charge varies from $15 to $25 depending on how late you get there. Also, you pay $10 for parking. So right off the bat you're down $35.
When you walk in you go past the VIP rooms. You also walk past the barbershop. Yes, there is a barbershop INSIDE the strip club. I don't know about you, but personally I don't know if I could trust a man to cut my hair while there are so many nice tits and asses walking around. Next time you see someone with a jacked up haircut you can probably guess where he got it from. Anyway, I digressed.
Once you walk past the barbershop you go down a set of stairs, which is where the main stage is. It is a fairly small stage and can get crowded pretty easily, so make sure you get there early (plus you save on cover charge). The tables in front of the stage are usually reserved, meaning you gotta shell out more dough. Yes, if you wanna sit down you actually gotta pay for that.
But once you're downstairs get ready to see some of the sexiest black girls ATL has to offer. If you like 'em nice and thick with a flat stomach, Body Tap is your spot.
Your $10 dances are generally just air. If you want more contact you will have to do the VIP rooms or the champagne room. The girls are definitely cute and will chit chat every now and then. Their impression is that most customers who already pay these exorbitant fees (cover charge, parking, plus money for the table) are capable of shelling out some more dough, and they are willing to chat and be friendly to you. I did not partake in VIP or champagne room, but my impression is that you won't get much there unless you're a celebrity. However that night I hit the jackpot and got the digits from a thick lil chocolate named bunny who later joined me and my girl in a free 3-some action outside the club. This is the spot where ballers like Lil Jon and his crew host their birthday parties.

Platinum 21 Reviews & Ratings
Lately this club has been fairly light in the number of customers. This usually means better value for the customer.
The day shift is virtually dead. In my visit there were about 6-8 dancers and only about 4-5 customers. The couch/table dances were $10, but most dancers prefer to dance in the little corner where your little solider could get a personal lap dance for $20. Depending on the dancer that lap dance is well worth it. I'd suggest you start with a couple of table dances and see if it's worth getting the lap dance. Also, due to the lack of patrons during the day shift, it's certain that every dancer will want to take you to VIP downstairs. Again, use your bigger brain. Some dancers will show you a good time and some are just after your jacksons. Again, with the right dancer you won't need to go to VIP to take care of business. Trust me on this!

Dancer's Elite Reviews & Ratings
This club was remodeled about a few months ago. You know what that means: less privacy and higher prices. There is definitely less privacy than used to be, but prices haven't gone up yet. The owner has been trying to make this a more upscale club but he's failing miserably.
The club used to be hit or miss, but lately it's been all miss. Don't expect to see top talent there. Tuesday is amateur night and there is a $500 competition. But they don't start the competition until 1 AM. As a matter of fact, the club is pretty empty up until 1 AM or so. I'd strongly recommend going during the daytime when there is no cover charge and parking is free. Or if you go in the evening expect to just hang out for a few beers and then go home. VIP is no longer worth it (not much privacy at all), but you will get offers for some takeout action. As a matter of fact, I have a regular OTC friend I met there. She says management is strict now so the girls have to rely on takeout. Things are so strict now that she has to strip at Platinum 21 to make ends meet.

Club Blaze Reviews & Ratings
Went there on a Wednesday night after a "not totally fulfilling" day shift from Babes. Blaze was one of my favorite clubs 2 years ago for their VIP action. Things have changed a bit. Looks like the SC action in Atlanta now is getting worse every day.
Cover charge is $10 before midnight and $20 after that (or whenever it starts getting crowded). As a black SC most of the girls rank in the 6-9 range depending on the day. If you want to see their top talent and a crowded club then Sunday night is your best bet.
The parking situation is still the same. It's free if you come before the crowd gets there, and $5 or $10 depending on how close you want to park.
Dances are still $5 a pop. A pretty good value considering the quality and talent. The bouncers walk around quite much now and make sure that nothing too inappropriate is going on. There is no more dancing allowed in the little casino/gambling room. Also, they installed some lights in the dark corners downstairs.
The dancers are straight hustlers now. Most will try to take you to VIP. The first girl I got dancers from wanted to take me to VIP. I wanted to chill first for 10 minutes and then take her to VIP. Then she asked me to buy her a drink which I did. Then she asked me to give the change I got back from the bartender. At that point I said "No thank you" and walked away. Needless to say she didn't get her VIP wishes.
There are still some girls that are "'bout it 'bout it and who will treat you right. I'm a regular there so one of the bouncers gives me the 411 on which girls to take to VIP and which ones to avoid. VIP is $25 to get in (but $35 if you want the bouncer to turn off the light inside the room) and $10 per dance. Of course if you want a package deal you might wanna negotiate a flat fee before walking in there. I see a lot of girls there who used to dance at PinUps.

Sweet! Someone to trade war stories with!
[QUOTE=Atl For Life]Over the past 6 months I've been touring pretty much all the black SC's in Atlanta. Inspired by BHL I decided to post reviews for some of them. I'll post more at a later date. Feel free to PM me if you need the 411 on a black SC.
AFL[/QUOTE]I see you've covered the lot and it looks like not much has changed since I used to be in all of them all the time.
Remember gentlemen, I'm big on the day shift, not so much night, so most of my info comes from that.
I've always heard that at Platinum, just about anything goes if you can get it agreed upon beforehand, maybe I was wrong. The last time I was there was in Spring of '06, and the main thing I remember is that it was like the white clubs in Tampa where everydamnbody wants a tip! The waitress wants to sell you and the girl shots, the bartender wants you to buy drinks for the girl, the damn dancers want a tip just for breathing oxygen. That was kinda irritating, because like A4L said, the day shift there was pretty dead. The old guys got all the attention, the white guys too. So BHL felt somewhat unappreciated, LOL.
Dances were 10$ if memory serves correctly, but it wasn't too hard to negotiate 5$ a song. Either way, that didn't bode well for a night shift return by BHL, so I never went back.
Blaze was too wide open for any action for BHL, but there are a few high mileage dancers in there. It's kinda cramped to me, and there isn't much difference between the dances upstairs or downstairs. Most dancers/customers told me the VIP wasn't worth it, so I never went into it. The girls have a generally great attitude though, so it was always a fun, but 'clean' time. 5$ dances. I think they charged like 5 bucks to get in when you come early, early.
Foxy Lady reminds me of those old lounge looking strip clubs you find in Columbus, you know, the ones that were designed to be good 'ole boy bars but had to sell the business for some reason or another. No mileage unless you go to their 'VIP', which is just an open area that kinda reminds me of an indoor patio, if that makes sense. 10$ dances in the 'VIP' were good contact, but since the manager's door is literally next to that area, not too much extra activity going on there. You meet some cool down to earth chicks there too. I meant one that was starting a buttnaked cleaning business! Heh! She'd clean the house naked for $100. Unless I was getting seven lapdances with that though, I couldn't see the value. How about I wash my dishes, mop the floor, fold my clothes then take my ass to Babes and drop that 100$?
Pinups started out as my favorite spot in '04, but by '06, nahh. Last time I was there was November of last year. The security treats you like crap, they are getting more and more apt to make sure all the dances during the day are air dances, which is weird because most strip clubs tighten up at night, but they are the other way around. The mileage in the VIP isn't what it used to be, unless you tip off the right bouncer or two, and even that is getting trickier because all of the girls are spooked. They have some very, very nice pieces of meat in there, but it's not worth it because you feel inferior from the jump when going there. From the Airport security style metal detector they make you walk through, to the next guy holding a metal detector that you go through after that, to the fact that you can't bring cigarettes or black and milds in there, because they want you to get them out their expensive ass machine, to the 'I could've swore I wasn't an armed suspect' pat down AFTER the metal detector. I mean, I've had my nuts felt up more by security in there than by some of the dancers a few times.
Other than the one bouncer I used to tip off to look the other way in the VIP, there is no understood treatment of the good customers. For example, when I go to Babes, the manager speaks to me, security recognizes my face and jokes around about the prices to get in "Today it's going to be $100 to park", you know, makes you more comfortable. At Pinups, you feel like you're trying to get a lapdance at the precinct sometimes.
Skip Queen City, Pleasers, and Blue Flame. The first two for the exact reasons A4L said. I went into QC one time at night and there were 3 or 4 girls there. One tried to give me a dance in that room that's kind of portioned off (kind of a could be a VIP room) but the manager instantly said we had to come out of there. They aren't playing about the airdance rule either.
Pleasers is the absolute airdancing worse. From what I'm told though, almost all are available for takeout there, so that's why guys keep going. I don't trust it, nor do I like the looks of what they have to offer in there on every night besides Friday and Saturday.
Blue Flame is airdance central for the 5$ dances on the floor, and even though a lapdance is permitted in their VIP for 10$ a song (honestly, it might be 20$ and I just negotiated 10$, I'm not sure), security makes rounds to make sure action is pretty clean. Speaking of security, if you ever become rich and don't want anyone to touch or breath on your expensive self portrait or any other prized personal possessions when you host a party, you might want to hire their security. They're like the damn secret service, only bigger, blacker, and quicker to make a scene. They actually wore headsets up in there! The ringleader spends all night motioning to girls to keep their distance away from their customers during the dances, if I've ever seen a big, buff, black guy who would be universally considered a douchebag, he would be it. Girls are available for takeout there, but I don't like the rates or the feel of the club. Nice looking club though, with nice looking women, and it seems about half of them wish security would lighten the hell up.
I went to Dreamgirls before it remodeled, so all I could tell you about that is a bunch of funny stories. I'll just mention most of the 'strippers' looked like they should be somebody's favorite aunt, who cooks the best Thanksgiving dinners, and their means of music was a boombox, that in summer of '06 was playing a scratched CD of Master P's Ghetto Dope. I met a cool dancer in another state though that said she dances there when she's in Atlanta because they don't make them get permits, and it's better now. I'll go back in the next couple of months to see what it is.
Magic City is just plain overrated. Nothing else to be said about that.
Goosebumps was ok when I went. Laid back atmosphere, dances were ok contact, but not Westside Babes mileage by longshot. The two girls I chatted up about the VIP weren't going for it.
Strokers is for the guy who wants everyone to know he has money. Not for the bargain seekers. Very beautiful women, but attitude is too high, and mileage is too low.
Dancer's Elite is also what A4L said it is. Plus, it's like the dudes up in there are spend more time meanmugging each other than checking out the housemeat. I got fully served up in their VIP once, but let's just say I wasn't too comfortable about it, and since A4L said they tightened up, that is pretty much scratched off the list.
Body Tap is what he said it is also. Not for bargain shoppers at night AT ALL, but I'm going to check out the dayshift one day to see if it's different.
I was telling one of our esteemed posters I was going to check out Onyx in a couple of months, as it now has the reputation of being the best, but even better, from 12-3PM they have five dollar dances. Expect BHL to be pulling up promtly at 11:55AM when I go.
Remember gentlemen, dayshift is your friend. Cheaper to get in, less security, more mileage, and better attitudes. At night is when the girls have a hit and quit it mentality, because of the size of the crowd and the money being spent.
