A couple of benefits to the block. If you go enough so that you get to know a barkeep, they'll take care of you, get to know your likes and dislikes and steer the goods your way. Spend a few dollars, and you'll reap the rewards. Second, it's pretty safe. I have yet to hear of a block customer getting robbed at knifepoint, in the bar at least. If you meet a blockette you like, generally you can make arrangements to meet off-campus, but I always spring for the dining room at least once. Only seems fair to the proprietor. Finally, it's usually only a matter of time before most of these girls hit the street, so you're getting them will pretty low miles, sometimes showroom condition.
It's pricey, but you get what you pay for. If you don't, tell the management, and they might just make it right for you. Discounts can be had off-hours days and during the day Saturday. Even I haven't been down there on a Sunday. It was a great place in the late 80's. Only a shadow of it's former self now, but can still be a lot of fun with the right girls.
I've been there a few times and have never had or even seen anyone getting any action so I don't know how it can be highly recomended.

Me either.
I was at Tony's only a 5-6 times.
I hate to say this, because Tony is one hell of a good guy. But, the women at Tony's are generally not as attractive as those on the Block. But, then again, Tony's is a cheaper gig. At least, as I remember it.
I would say that Tony's is more of a corner bar, while the Block is a bit less personable and more profit oriented. Take your pick.
So, that's the good and the bad of it.

[QUOTE=Block Partier]Somehow that was next to a strip club I'd never seen named Tony's. Amazing. Makes the block look like Ceasars fucking palace. All the girls but one were horribly ugly and as marked up as most of the w/w girls. The beer was cheap though. The one that wasn't ugly spent 15 minutes telling me how much she hated her work. At least she didn't charge me for listening.[/QUOTE]
To quote myself.
So what clubs do have the best take out?
I go to the block whenever I am in Baltimore never asked about take out but been to the dining room a few times even had a lot of fun at the bar talking and messing around.

I haven't been to a strip club lately but it has always been the clubs in Baltimore City have the best takeout over the years. YMMV.

The best take out I ever had on the Block was at Club Pollock Johnny's. Had to ask for the works. Havn't been to the Block in awhile is Pollock Jhonny's still there?

Good Evening - Nice to make your acquaintance.
Was poking around on the net and found this excellent forum. Have spent the past few hours reading the Baltimore section then decided to register. I'm a regular visitor to Baltimore, staying over 2-5 times per month on business.
Needless to say, since I'm here, I've done some poking around the block, and checking on CL, Eros and TER about the local scene. Typical of the professional business traveler, I stay in a midscale brand-name hotel in the inner harbor, and have stayed there enough that the staff knows me by name and puts me on the preferred floors.
The big head generally rules the small one, and this causes perhaps too much timidity and/or circumspection in the hunt. Need for caution as neither work nor family would take kindly to an incident involving LE! Still, the smaller head doesn't seem to be able to stop hearing voices.
I've found the block to be much as described here, although I've not been successful in arranging any take out. Now for a question to the learned ones here - should I arrange take out, (I walk to the block from my hotel) would it be a faux pas to use my standard hotel?

I think that success in this game is directly linked to how much distance you keep between the provider and your personal information and objects. It's fine to bring them back to your hotel, it won't shock the hotel staff, not in Baltimore, trust me, they have seen it all. They have heard it all. They may even know the girls. No biggie there unless you're not alone in the hotel from your company, but the real issue is taking a drug addicted thief up to your room and taking the risk that you're going to get cleaned out. Meet them somewhere else and go to a notel. The extra $25-30 is a small price to pay for your security and safety.
Welcome to the board.
