Gonna give this a 5 star review based on my experience day before yesterday.Bouncers were nice, people that worked there were friendly and the dancers were extremely friendly. They didn’t get mad if you declined a dance and they also didn’t pressure you in for another after you got one.I had a couple dances and one girl definitely stood out for me. Shame I can’t remember her name but she was amazing. I do remember paisley tho, another great dancer and I hope everything works for ya!

Honestly the strippers look ok at best they have a few good ones, but be real careful with your time when it comes to the private dances. They charge per song and wont stop unless you say some so they can overcharge at check out. I had told a stripper Id like 1 dance cause I was just curious about the back room. She talk to me at first was friendly let the song that was playing finish up then danced to the second one. She charged me for the first that was basically over when we got there.

My kid was wanting to do a bonfire with his friends tonight so I picked them all up and went to get some wood for it and when I walked theough the door with the children I was appaled by the attire of the workers and one of them also tried to group my child worst astablishment ever I wish I could give 0 stats, but Electra was a nice girl and gave one dance for free to my friends son Lamar.

Extremely poor and disgusting customer service from both some of the dancers and security guy, on 03/02/2020. Go there if you wish to be treated so poorly after spending over $600. I definitely don’t recommend, they first need to hire people who know the definition of customer service, then maybe we would think about it. I’ll make sure to let everyone I know about my poor experience.

Extremely bad service after tipping over $500. the security guy on 03/02/2020 was being racist along with a girl working that night who didn’t want to tell us her name, asking “where are you from” before any type of interaction. Disgusting treatment from both the security and dancer, the other girls were nice though. If you can bare extremely bad racism just based on where you are from go there.

Went here for my 18th birthday in January. (Was tipping good ) . Some white girl got on stage and was basically sitting there so we stopped tipping then she started yelling at us . Another older gal pulled me on stage and took my pants off . Not a huge fan BUT the door girls were amazing and the security was nice . :)

Most of the dancers were friendly, except one.She was extremely racist. She would ask where are you from, then judge from that if she would carry on the conversation, the security guy on 03/02/2020 was as much racist and disgusting customer service. Go there if you wish to be treated poorly like that after spending over $600

Go there every 2 years when we head to the Farm Progress show. Always enjoy it. The girls are nice looking & the atmosphere is good. They always have my favorite brand of beer because you get to bring your own! I like that concept. The only bad thing is I spend too much money when Im there but thats my fault! See you in 3 weeks!

My husband and I have been to trip clubs all over the country (Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois Florida, Texas, Nevada, New York) and have really tried to give the “lumber yard’s” a chance since we live in Iowa but after twice in Cedar Rapids and three times in Des Moines we need to say something. Absolutely avoid these places if you can! We always tip generously when no one else is and still can’t convince a stripper to give us a private dance at either club. Once at each place was an amateur night so those get a pass. Otherwise, not sure if it has to do with us being a couple (that didn’t stop them from taking me out to make a show on stage) but they will not come near you after they are one stage. I’m only giving this place one star because I can’t give it zero. It is not anything special no matter how much they advertise it is. We love strip clubs but will not be wasting our time (or money!) at any of these places again!

The girls are good looking and personable. $10 cover Mon-Thur, $15 other nights. They dont serve alcohol but you can bring your own. $25 for a dance.

Enjoyed an extravagant night out on my birthday where I was memorized in shock and awe watching these talented women spin and move from the top of the ceiling to the stage effortlessly. Only complaint is when they brought me on stage tied me up and performed degrading but humorous acts on me. Bad place to bring your kids for your birthday. Gyros outside great though

Ive been here a few times and they were wonderful experiences but last night we took my friends who have never been to the club before. After saying this to the girl on stage, she and another took my friend for a private dance after he gave them 20$. After three songs, she told him that it was 40 a song and continued to the fourth. After that he said he really needed to come back and that was when they decided to charge him 320 for the time with them. None of us had that kind of money and they became very rude and bouncers started closing in when we tried arguing that they didnt tell him the right amount at the beginning. Needless to say we will NEVER be back.

Went here last Tuesday and was unimpressed. Whoever is on the mic needs to chill out a bit. Constantly complaining that people aren’t tipping enough is obnoxious and not going to make people tip more. If I want to sit back and drink a couple beers I should be able to without being bitched at. I always spend money when I go to clubs. Get privates and at the stage but not when some grown man is yelling at me about it. Dancers were ok, nothing special.

Management was rude at the entrance. Guy was looking for a fight for no reason. Got onto the floor after altercation of 30 mins when manager was clenching his fist the whole time.After getting onto floor their was no dancers for 3 songs it was very boring. Finally a dancer comes to dance and management with sour taste in his mouth asked us to leave and asked me to leave the cash I had on the table. I said absolutely not, because I didnt get to enjoy my time out on the floor. Will be the next beach girls, closed down if things dont improve.

This place is hit or miss. You go there one night, its complete garbage. You go there another night, youll have the time of your life. You just have to hope for the best and prepare for the worst. I wouldnt suggest any private dances btw.

Review №27

This review is only getting two stars because of the potential it has, but for a Sunday night closing early just to get the girls dances instead of providing a show for paying customers. Walked in with two hours till close and was told by the dj last song for the night at 1:15... Ruined the night for friends and I, so instead we headed over to Beach Girls till 3am.

Went to the lumber yard. Signed up for Amateur night.. let me tell you it’s rigged!! Twatt waffle should of won! Many of the dancers and staff let me know after that they gave top prize to a dancer who works there. Many men left after because they felt it was a waste of money to judge when they picked the winner but the house picked there own... Did a privite dance lady told me $25 then over charged me $50. Will not go back. Very sad
