Cheerleaders Philadelphia — Restaurant in Philadelphia

I am writing to formally express my disappointment with the experience I had at this establishment on Friday, May 17th, during my bachelor party.

My group of nine friends and I arrived at the venue, paid our cover charges, and began enjoying the evening. As part of the celebration, my friends purchased dances for me within seconds of arriving…Girl 1 , 1 dance, girl 2 1 dance, girl 3 I requested a second dance from. Upon completion, I proceeded to pay the bouncer. He informed me that I owed for three dances. Both the dancer and I asserted that it was only two dances, but the bouncer dismissed our claim, stating, “She gets paid to dance, not count.” Which is interesting because each girl stopped after the 1 song to inform me the 1 dance was over.

When I explained that we waited for the new song as HE instructed and that I only received two dances, the bouncer became aggressive. He called me a “deadbeat,” came from behind the counter, got in my face, and demanded payment. Concurrently, several individuals passed us, leaving the back room without issue or payment. The bouncer then instructed me to leave the club.

At this point, we had been in the club for less than 20- 25 minutes. I informed my friends that we needed to leave because I had been unjustly ejected for not paying for a dance I did not receive. As we exited, someone approached us asking why we were leaving. I explained the situation, and he said he would return shortly. After waiting for 3-4 minutes without hearing anything, we decided to call our Ubers and left.

Cheerleaders Philadelphia has been one of the greatest gentlemen's clubs I have been to. Out of the six different adult entertainment establishments I have visited, this one is the icing on the cake. I rate Cheerleaders Philadelphia a five-star rating because of the atmosphere, pricing, and of course the entertainers.

Atmosphere: The location isn't in the best place, however it is easy to locate. The interior has a golden color scheme which makes it look like a luxurious upscale bar. There is sufficient seating with a great view of the main stage. The bartenders are super nice and will take your order in a timely manner.

Pricing: The pricing of this club is reasonably priced. $3.00-$7.00 for beer , $20.00 for each lap dance, $180.00 for the champagne lounge and somewhere around $300.00 for the VIP area. Lap dances are timed per song, meaning one lap dance will last for the duration of one song. The lap dance can continue after the first song has ended, however it will cost you another $20.00 when the second song starts. On average a song will last around 5 minutes. The champagne lounge last about 15 minutes which runs off a timer, and the VIP lounge is longer.

Entertainers: The entertainers are ecstatic and cheerful like the name of the establishment. Like any adult entertainment club, tipping is highly recommended to have a good time. The entertainers will exit the main stage and come to visit their customers. Some of the best entertainers are Demi, Venus and Angel. Demi is funny and great to talk to. Of course there are many other great entertainers but these ladies stand out.

ADVISE: Depending on how long you plan to stay, and what services you plan to purchase, bring sufficient cash. Always tip and be gentlemen like and...

Beware. I popped in a couple weeks ago for a beer, and decided to hit it again last night although clubs like this aren't really my thing, but I figured I'd check it out. The first trip was fine as I just had a beer at the bar. Last night I got talked into a lap dance and figured why not. I got 2 songs and gave the dancer a $20 tip. Upon exiting the room, the big fella in attendance said he was charging me for 3 songs, even though I only got 2 songs. There was a song winding down when I walked in and I got situated during that. She started dancing when the next song came on and through a second song. Then she said I could tip her and let the big fella know that I wasn't getting a dance, but was just tipping her after the second song. Big fella gave me a total strong arm rip off tactic, saying I wasn't leaving until I paid the extra $20. My phone and wallet were in the car - he was basically detaining me and since I had given just about all of my money as a tip, we had a problem. The dancer loaned me her tip money so I could pay him. I went to the car, came back and reimbursed her. This sounds exactly like what happened to two other recent reviewers. I guess it's an OK place as long as you don't leave the bar area and don't buy the girls way overpriced drinks like I made the mistake of doing last night. I felt like I stepped into the wrong area in a foreign country on this one. It's a good reminder I why I don't frequent places like this. I'm happy to play by the rules, but don't rip me off, and definitely don't try to...
