I’m a student here, and want to go to a strip club here. What’s it like? How much money should we take? Which ones are the best ones?

Nothing good has ever happened at a strip club in RVA. Ever.

Dancers strip with pasties on here so if you want the real thing you gotta go to Charles Town WV

that said my peer group tends to prefer Richard's Rendezvous to Rouge

I delivered food there once for the staff roughly 12 years ago when I was in school and working at Jason’s Deli. Can confirm it is a depressing, depressing place.

Is this written into local law?

Yes.

I should say, it’s not local law. It’s a state law. No nudity. Not if they want to sell alcohol.

Private strippers are a different matter altogether.

rvahoorayok t1_ixup99p wrote

Interestingly enough, it’s not a nudity law- it’s a food safety law, due to potential breast milk getting into food 😳

One time in Memphis, a stripper drug me on stage and rode my face, lol.

20 years ago strip clubs were wild AF.

On the other hand, I used to live in Tennessee, and the city I lived in had a topless deli. I never had enough curiosity to visit. Neighboring states, but vastly differing views on food safety.

I use to go to the Scott’s addition Paper Moon with a girl I was seeing. We would dress up in thrift shop couture. I’m talking bow ties faux gold chains, costume glasses, 2nd hand furs, tuxedo shoes etc. I recommend setting a limit on what you plan to spend. We also liked to pick up scratch off tickets from the 7-11 on boulevard and add those to our cash tips to make things interesting. For the full experience sit right by the stage and tip every dancer a few $. If there is a girl that has super swag energy you can focus all our attention on her. The dancers are there to make money and make you feel special. If you are approached by a dancer that you are not interested in just politely say you are not looking for company. Never buy the dancers drinks (they are marked up like 2x) Go in with an open mind and some fun friends- always be respectful.

Honestly you’ll probably have more fun at a burlesque show at a brewery.

You are correct. I was making a sweeping generalization of some of the breweries in Richmond. I apologize for being an ass.

Felt it was an accurate statement, though Legends has the best Trappist Ale outside of Belgium.

I personally am not a fan of beer anymore, but they do have a few high % ABV bourbon barrel brewers that are okay to drink.

Nudity with booze isn’t very high on the legislative docket here unfortunately.

Edit: few not free

If you want to forever kill the desire to return to a strip club again, then definitely check out a Virginia strip club.

UntrainedFoodCritic t1_ixugamk wrote

Virginia strip clubs are some of the worst in the country. Nc, sc and Maryland are all some of the best though so make a trip

c53x12 t1_ixuvoyz wrote

Do they seem like the best only because they're adjacent to VA?

UntrainedFoodCritic t1_ixwhwiu wrote

Lol no they’re the best because they get wild in the back rooms if you have the money for it.

dspencer97 t1_ixtwc9k wrote

Club Rouge. Just go and see what happens, take about 50 bucks cash and get a lot of 1s so you don’t get the scooby bucks they’ll give you if you want change.

PhreePhish t1_ixuqvy0 wrote

Best strippers would be Paper Moon then Rogue. For cheap day drinks and slightly mature strippers Richard's. Take about $150, $20 or so to get in, $80-$100 for lap dances. The rest for beers and tips. Pro tip take a hit of E to save on beers and really have a good time.

80-100 for a lap dance? What times are you living in?

PhreePhish t1_ixuxw76 wrote

Granite I have not gone in years, This not close? And I said dances figure it's good for 1-2 depending on length and club, maybe 3 at Richard's. Specifically I live in 2006-2014, that's when I peaked

I went to papermoon 6 months ago and the cheapest lap dance was 300 dollars and they also charge a service fee ontop of that that they don’t tell you about till after they run your CC hahaha

ExtremeHobo t1_ixwpb8a wrote

I'm late to this but you should ignore most of the responses here. With a limited budget Richards is the best and only option. You can get a pitcher of beer (for cheap) and chill without getting immediately pressured into a private room.

Rouge is tiny AF and you can't really disappear into the crowd there, they also have expensive drinks.

Paper Moon will sell you a $12 bottle of Bud light and then immediately pressure you into a private room before you have a chance to get a feel for anything. They will upcharge the fuck out of you.

The lap dance area at Richards is only semi private and cheaper than anywhere else.

If it's your first time just come in with like $40 in singles, sit up front when you see a girl you like and toss money her way. Buy a pitcher of beer with your bud and drink it. If a girl you really like asks for a lap dance it used to be $20 a song (sometimes they do 2 songs for 1) and you should tip like another $5 or $10 on top.

To the points about VA vs other states. If you really want to see a wide open vagina in your face then go to WV or another full nudity place. It's not my thing personally. Also, in VA there are tassels but they are clear and you can't even really see them. It's silly and no reason not to go here.

Richard’s is the only woman-owned club in Richmond and the most fun. Be aware that dance prices in Richmond are significantly higher than elsewhere

My Opiesque roommate went to a strip club in DC and said that the strippers looked like SI swimsuit models. He was blown away... I had a coworker who tried to get a job at the Red Light Inn stripping... she auditioned but was rejected b/c of tattoos!! This was 1994 before the tattoo thing was a thing.

glittertots t1_ixvu410 wrote

Echoing the statement that Va clubs suck. DC city much much better. But! In order: Rogue, Richards, Papermoon.

Papermoon is the “nicest” but lame. It’s trying too hard. Rogue/Richards are less pretentious…what you see is what you get and less cheesy, more gritty.

BlueRibbon998 t1_ixx5ie7 wrote

Don't.

Like others here have mentioned, you're better off taking a trip to DC and getting your money's worth there. Cloakroom is high end and incredibly aesthetic.

I went to Daddy Rabbit's a few years ago for my 21st birthday and it was totally underwhelming. Hardly anyone there, maybe 4 or 5 dancers at best and none of them were all that appealing. The bouncer was nice enough to let my friend and I in for free since it was my birthday. I guess the best things in life aren't for free

Do not go to Daddy Rabbits. Not sure if it’s even open anymore but IMO it’s where strippers go to be put out to pasture

Owner of this private club makes his dancers get and provide weekly testing results for common STDS AND STIS it's actually their biggest point how clean it is Like Celebroties and rappers come to this location again it's in the hood so it's "specific" kinds of people here

I just know cause I did an emergency DJ. Gig there and had a blast

You can't use your phones either or they'll kick you out

There’s def a few BBLS here

The location near Fayetteville would probably be your cup of tea

however that location attracts a different kind of crowd as well

yt people so entry fee is slightly higher and the females are. Too bougie you’ll have more fun at the hood location 😂

When I was young and naive, I attended a party with my now ex husband and was chatting with some of the other young women. I noted how thin they all were and asked what they did to stay so thin. They told me they were dancers. In my excitement I told them I had a friend who dances for Richmond Ballet. I inquired where they danced, turns out they were all strippers and I probably didn’t want to use their methods to stay thin
