    I was in Angels in Galway and Dublin. Was also Whispers in Dundalk about 3 years ago...

    All I can say is... They are the dirtiest kips I have ever had a drink in my life... A bunch a grown men circling a woman ****ing a pole is just a bit scary for my liking...

    As for its rating as a bar.. ****ing tragic as well...

    At that, I don't have any problem with the whole concept of lapdancers. If a lady wants to do it then fair played to her for having the nuts.

    I feel like I need to clarify the above for some reason...

    Was in Angels in Galway last June for a mates stag party.. The place as a whole was just unpleasent. The dancers themselves were beautiful girls but I sort of felt bad for them having to be oogled by a bunch of 50 year old drunks who I honestly thought were touching themselves half the time... About 10 of went and within 30 minutes, everyone of us wanted to leave.. We did so after our drinks.. Didn't get a dance..

    Was also in Angels on Leeson street about 3 or 4 years ago for a friends birthday.. This was no where near as bad as Galway.. There was a relatively young crowd with no seedy characters lurking in corners... The place was absolutely packed though... The dancers were stunning though.. We spent about an hour in here and then left... Didn't get a dance here either..

    Finally, wasin Whispers in Dundalk about 3 years ago for a mates 21st... Its not actually the worst place.. Its more of a pub with naked women walking around.. Twas a strange experience as a good friend was DJ in the place at the time and he knew most of the girls very well.. They were not so "classy" when they were comfortable... I didn't get a dance here either...

    I noticed I didn't get a dance in any of them... hmmm... I ain't gay ya know :dunno: I consider lapdances with no afters a form or torture!

    It's what we call a spank bank.

    I've been in twice, gotten 3 dances. All when I was 18 and at parties (my 18th for example was when I got two, the other was my best mate's 19th and we went for a group show). It's a novelty but each and every time I walk out of the place it's just like... What the hell did I just spend 50quid on???

    Been loads of times, but just for after hours. Don't really get the concept meself. Paying a good lookin' lady to dance around in front of me until I'm totally horny, and then walk away... well, it's just strikes me as bad value for money.

    Strangely enough for someone who's a bit of dirty perv when I want to be I have yet to frequent one of these places....

    I'm sure I will in the future though if the opportunity arises. Full report on www.boards.ie straight afterwards! :D

    And the concept for the next boards beers is born...


  • Registered Users Posts: 725 ✭✭✭talking_walnut


    Went to one in Greece when I was 16. Good looking girls, and there was no no touching rule with the lapdances. Girl wanted to "snuggle" afterwards for quite a cheap price from what I can remember (didn't do it of course, had no money left:D). Was good when I was a horny 16 year old but I've had no desire to go to another.

    In case anyone's around Galway and planning on headin to Angel's in Salthill, don't, its closed down. The owners opened a new place on Domnic (sp?) Street and closed down Angels. Whatever chance of me going to Angel's there was, there's no chance of me ever going to this new place. One of the seediest lookin places I've come across. Got the bouncers on the door all dressed in tuxedos but they all look like thugs so it make the place look cheaper. Heard the girls are supposed to be muck and any I've seen going in confirm this. Course I've never actually been inside the place so it could be absolutely fantastic but I doubt it somehow, and I don't think I'll be checking any time soon:)

    I don't get it either - you get turned on and you can't do anything about it which would be frustrating - well, assuming they're not actually brothels pretending to be lap dancing clubs.

    Do they let people jerk off in front of the dancers if it's a private dance?

    I thought they might have little beakers people could do it into - then the club owners could make extra profit by selling it to sperm banks!

    (Joking - I didn't really think that but it would be funny).

    @simu
    it would be funny alright.....have never been to a lap dance place,but most of my mates went and they recommend it.....

    lapdance? "yes please"

    Went on a lads weekend to manchester a coupla weeks ago...ended up in this Lap Dancing club in chinatown called long legs. Was absolutely top class. £10 in with a free dance...beer was reasonable.

    £5 for each dance after. The women were the best looking I have seen in any lap dancing club, couple of them were really good too, ones in FHM this month. A few sleasy older men about tho, and no private dances.


    Also ended up in a place called teasers which was like a cross between hooters (whiout the silicon) and the bar in coyote ugly. All these bar staff in bikini pants and crop tops and every half hour or so they would start dancing on the tables or on the bar...made for a good night out.

    I'm not big on English girls...

    When i was in L.A., my gf's dad took me to a lapdancing club after he found out id never been to one *L* Man was the biggest pervert i ever met, gawd bless him hehe. Anyway i walked in the door, sat down at the stage, and this spanish chick i later got a lapdance off leapt off the stage, buck nekkid and wrapped her legs round my neck. Needless to say i almost had an aneurysm.
    Good fun, but i dont think id make a habit of it.

    *runs off to les paradise on dame street where dances cost around 40 eur per song*

    i have never been to one, dont think i ever will. I would find it incredibly difficult to restrain myself as some hot chick was "shacking her booty" in my face.

    It's not that difficult TBH, I had a private dance in Angel's once and it was crap, I was actually bored by it and found the entire experience a little pathetic. Of course that may be more a reflection of Angels than the notion of lapdancing itself. The lads I was with found it allright, but the sight of these sad looking men surrounded by women & the men thinking they were great...
    No urge to repeat the experience.

    Le Paradis on Dame street is actually really poor... I was there last week.

    It's €40 for a dance and the girl can't even touch you... It's really dark and they have horrible UV lighting.... not good at all.

    You have to pay a €100 for a proper dance.

    They do have a full bar though.

    Lapellos is still the best of the clubs in Dublin... I'm just not a big fan of the horrible wine that they charge you €26 a bottle for... cheap Chilean plonk... bleh....

    Myself and a friend of mine are actually thinking of putting together a website to review the different clubs out there...

  • Registered Users Posts: 28 Boy Gorgeous


    Haven't been to any in Ireland, but was in Montreal, and it's overflowing with strip clubs, it's incredible. Just walking down the main street at night, the hookers stay in groups of 3 or so, and they're on every corner, trying to drag you away. Me and a few mates went to a strip club one night alright. The women were amazing. The place was empty. $5 canadian for a 5 minute lapdance, that's about €3/4! These places are practically brothels though. We decide to get a 30 minute show each for $50 canadian. You go into the room, waitress comes in with a free beer, and tells you that 10 women wil come in, in turn, for about 2 minutes, and introduce themselves. Then the "waitress" comes back and asks you which girl you want. You're sitting on a chair (with towel provided!!), and she's going at it on the bed. Now I was fairly hammered, and 30 minutes is a long time not to get bored sitting there, so I started kinda dozing a little - you know when you kinda awake suddenly? She saw it anyway, and though it was cos I didnt think she was any good. So she started "trying harder" - lets just say I wasn't dozing then!

    Have to agree with you, the quality here is ****e from what I've seen. My worst encounter was with a spotty arsed english tart in Angels. utter crap, yet mildly addictive :(

    so what do the girls out there think of lapdancing?? i dont give a shyte really...say if i had a b/f that went it would be ok as long as he didnt touch them or do the dirt.heck i'd go, just for the fun and to laugh at the old fogies.......i wonder why there isnt that much kind of stuff for women?....imo i think it's because the male dancers are usually all buff and muscular and i dont find that at all attractive, the whole arnie look....though i was watching a programme on the chippendales and that guy with the long blonde hair was hooooot...i think it was ''amu'' with hector......personally if i had a guy dance with me, and i was sexually attracted to him, i'd want something more than just a *dance*....

    so it's ok for you to touch but not for a man to?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,012 ✭✭✭munkeehaven


    no, i didnt say that im just being honest, of course if you have someone doing the motions et al you are going to be attracted to them. im just saying it like it is. but of course i wouldnt touch them anyway.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,105 ✭✭✭Tommy Vercetti


    of course you wouldn't ;)

    I once went to Angels in Leeson St - purely for research purposes you understand.

    I got into misunderstanding with one of the girls over what she thought I wanted. I thought I was getting a free private dance for some reason and she showed me this price list that was €10 per minute. I bargained her down to €50 for 10 minutes and then changed my mind. She was so pissed off.

    I thought to myself "My God, here I am haggling with a prostitute in a dank basement. It don't get no better than this" :D

    Has anybody been into that new strip club "The Garden of Eden" on Eden Quay (where Spi used to be)?

    They have this sign in the window: "The Garden of Eden, Ireland's newest and biggest strip club".

    Every time I walk past it I keep thinking to myself: "I wonder do they have Ireland's newest and biggest strippers?"

    Like Adam, I've never really seen the point. Definitely not with lap dancing, I can see a point in pole dancing even if I think a crowd of sweaty blokes with their tongues out at some dancing chick is a bit of a fantasy turnoff. With lapdancing though, it's like paying for a plate of ice-cream, getting a good auld sniff of it only to have the plate whisked away before you get a bite. Oh but don't worry, we can re-use the ice-cream - plenty of blokes will be getting a sniff of that only to have the plate whisked away from them too. Just don't touch the plate. You can buy the ice-cream that you're not going to taste some overpriced plonk too. Looks good on the plate though doesn't it? Look at all that ice-cream floating around the room. A good sniff of the plate will convince your blokey mates that you're really into ice-cream. I like ice-cream as much as the next guy but I'm not going to go out and pay extra just to get a sniff of something already smelled by a pile of other blokes - you know it's already been tried out by a pile of other blokes because you just saw them do it.

    Honestly it's like that gang of blokes in the office (they're in every office) crowded around some computer in the corner because in an office environment apparently it's more fun to look at porn as part of a big group of giggling lads all crowded around a computer screen.

    :rolleyes: recently after a date.. I tried to get the guy to go to a lap dance club with me .... stupid idea... was good with a few drinks in me.

    didn't make it to the club .. think I scared him off.

    I think men like the idea .. in theory.

    They didn't have to do much with the decor in there... SPI always had a lapdance vibe to it.

    Garden of Eden is pretty terrible. When I was in there, there were about 25 guys and just 2 girls in the place... and a really fat and ugly bar woman....

    not a good place...

    Been in a few in various countries & in ireland - TBH dunno what the big thrill is, they're all pretty low brow stuff & it's far more entertaining have a good looking woman you pick up in a club give you a private dance @ your place or hers & it don't cost you neither........ lapdance/strip clubs are basically like going window shopping - least if you pick up a woman in a club who's game that's window shopping with a brick.... ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,306 ✭✭✭✭the_syco


    I'd sooner DL porn than go to see a lapdancer. Why? Cos I can replay porn, and its free.
    And I get the same "access" as I'd get to the lapdancer.

    Zilch.

    I'd prefer a real girl, and let them entertain me, so I can entertain them, and so forth.

    As someone once said "watching lapdancers is mental mastabation; you enjoy what you see, and you would like to ask her out, but you know you can't"...

    ...which is part of the charm. If you know you can't have it, you want it even more.
