The Outhouse is a solid, if unremarkable, strip club experience.

The Outhouse is a decent spot, but it won't blow you away. The atmosphere is dull, and the service can be spotty. Overall, it's a solid choice if you're in the area, but don't expect to be impressed.

31/100

The room is cramped and unimpressive.

The room is cramped and unimpressive, making it feel more like a dive than a high-end club. The location is also pretty far from downtown, which is a bummer. On the other hand, the parking is relatively easy to find, and the amenities are decent.

The drinks are overpriced and the food is basically inedible.

The drinks are overpriced and the food is basically inedible, which is a major bummer. The food prices are so low that it's almost like they're trying to get rid of the stuff, and the quality reflects that. Stick to the drinks, but don't even think about the food.

The dancers are decent, but the shows can be rough.

70/100 SW score
Bachelorette Party We brought a large group to The Outhouse and while the dancers were friendly, the limited parking was a major headache. The BYOB policy is a plus, but the overall atmosphere feels a bit dated.
80/100 SW score
Regular Visitor I've been to The Outhouse a few times and while it's not the fanciest place, the dancers are always engaging and the private dances are a good value. My only complaint is the cleanliness could be better.
50/100 SW score
Not Impressed As a first-timer, I was disappointed with The Outhouse. The atmosphere felt dirty and the dancers seemed more interested in chatting with the regulars than putting on a show. Not worth the $15 cover charge in my opinion.
