Kahoots

I have never been here for the purpose of having a nice meal. I have never heard anyone say they want to go there for the food. The cocktails are overpriced. If the women were hot, all of this would be okay. The titties are not too bad, though I have seen much better. I would come here more often if it was worth it. Will still occasionally check it out because I need me some titties.

My hubby and I loved this place. I can’t wait to go back. :)

Me and my barber went to Kahoots this past Friday had a blast spent a little bit of money shared a few laughs. The girls where nice very approachable. Avoid sitting in the parking to long if you can the parking lot security will harass you seriously he approach me like five times I guess I looked shady, while I waited for my buddy «the barber» to show up, but on the flip side I felt like my car was in good hands in the parking lot while old dude was on watch.

The good. The food is pretty decent and the bartenders and girls are generally friendly and upbeat. Also the venue is spacious, well organized, and clean.
HOWEVER: There is one serious issue. (Well im sure theyre more, but heres the one I had) DEBIT CARD USERS BEWARE! The last time the boy and I went there he paid at the bar with both card and cash. At no point did the bar tenders or managers inform him that when you start a tab, they automatically withhold $ 50 from your account, regardless of if you only spent say about $ 30. So imagine his shock when he’s looking at his statement and sees a charge for 50 when he only authorized 28.
When I spoke with a manager about this, he seemed incapable of understanding why I was upset. He said youll get you money back on Monday, what do you want from me? And when I asked him why he didn’t inform people of the policy he said «I don’t know. we just dont. «Huh. Hustlers abound I see. So customers don’t have the right to know that their money, money that they might have wanted to spend on another venue, is going to be held until the next business day even though that was never authorized nor articulated.
I am not a fan of hidden policies or fees. I find them deceitful and cheap. If youre going to have an asinine policy at least let people know beforehand so they can plan accordingly. Hopefully they’ll let people know in the future, but if not no skin off of my nose. Like the buffoon manager said, the money will come back… but I won’t.

Always has been and always will be the best club in town. No hassle great prices and its a fun environment. The dancers are amazing! If you go anywhere else in town you’re seeing half of the talent these ladies posses. Club has booths to sit in and enjoy the stage as well as its amazing food that is better than most restraints in this city. They have a day shift that is great for lunch, business meetings or if you just don’t like the loud packed environment that the night time brings.

Best club in Columbus hands down. Have been there for over 2 years now and the thought of working anywhere else in columbus has never crossed my mind.
Pretty girls, good staff, reasonable prices.
PS the chef Pat cooks some really bomb ass gyros. Mmmmmm.

Awkward alert.
NSFW alert.
TMI alert.
Okay, you’ve been warned…
I’m not the kinda guy who likes girls. I mean… I like girls — just not in *that* kind of way. Kahoots is definitely not made for boys like me. I am not their target market.
So why on earth did I go? After a Unilocal event, the master of all UYEs (Unofficial Unilocal Events), Luke T, planned an informal get-​together at Kahoots and invited me to tag along. It was a good excuse to catch up with him and other friends, and let’s be honest — I knew it would make for one hell of a story.
Before my trip to Kahoots, I had never been to a strip club with women stripping. All my prior experience was at dive gay bars that occasionally had male strippers. Those are high-​energy, campy, silly, and usually accompanied by drag queens. Much to my surprise (and disappointment), Kahoots was none of these things.
Here’s how Kahoots works (in case you’re wondering):
–You walk in the front door and are greeted by half-​naked (or mostly naked) women.
–Pay a cover. I paid $ 5, and I think it was half-​off Mondays.
–Head to the bar, a booth, or a table to get a drink.
–Watch the entertainment on the stage or right in front of you; give tips!
Here’s what I liked about Kahoots:
–It was much nicer than I thought it would be. It was big, open, and clean.
–Most of the women there were very friendly, even to me – although I’m pretty sure none of them quite knew what to do with me since I spent most of the night blushing, squealing, and averting my eyes.
And here’s what I wasn’t loving:
–Obviously I did not love seeing the partially-​naked women. This was actually the closest I had ever been to naked women, and I think I’m scarred for life.
–The energy was a bit weird. It was dark, the music was kind of skanky, and everything just felt heavy and serious.
–One of the ladies is a fighter of some sort — you know, the ones with the initials… MMA, FFE, KGB… whatever, you get the idea. Well, she attacked me as I went to the bathroom. Like full on attacked me. I’m pretty sure my reaction was to squeal, push her off me, and run away.
–The drinks are stupid expensive. I paid $ 7.50 + tip for a gin and tonic. The girl at the bar knew how to work her miniskirt, but she had no idea how to make drinks.
In the end…
I am thrilled that I went here with friends and had this awesomely bad experience, and I would probably go back if somebody invited me. Maybe this place is what straight men (maybe women too?) like, but I think I’ll stick to the dive bars where the drinks are cheap and everyone is having a gay old time.
Oh, one last thing…
Can somebody explain the booty thrust? It seemed to be all the ladies’ favorite move, but I just didn’t get it. Then again, I didn’t understand most of the things at Kahoots.

By the way, the only reason why girls will ignore you is if you make them mad. The three big reasons to make a girl mad here at Kahoots: 1– being extremely cheap 2– being creepy. 3– being rude. So if the girls are ignoring you, maybe you should think about how you’re acting

If you’re not white, dancers ignore you. Period. Don’t waste your time at this white trailer trash strip club, unless you’re white trailer trash that still wears aeropostale.

The girls was Cutie’s! Service was awesome. The only thing is I ordered some Fry’s and out came a small basket. They was good but the among you get for five dollars was not worth it.

It is a strip club with food… what more can I say.

I have been to Kahoots twice. Each time I went, it was because I was in love with someone. «Because when you’re in love, it just makes you want to eat average food in front of topless women???» HOW DID YOU KNOW?!?
Visit 1: Some time ago, my girlfriend dumped me. My best friend, that I’ve known since high school, came in from out of town, and said «Let’s fuckin’ do shit!» Really, that’s what he said. He doesn’t swear often, but when he does, he means it. And nothing helps you kill the pain of lost love/​make you wish you were dead inside than foods & boobs. I just made that up, and it rhymes. Upon entering, we were greeted by a scantily clad woman, who, of course, wanted us to pay some exorbitant fee to enter. The thing is, you can pay the fee… or maybe you can find a free local newspaper that has a coupon for free admission. Always do the latter… unless your friend is paying. He paid for both of us, and we entered. The place looks like a… bar/​strip club. There are lights – possibly purple, as is required by law for gentleman’s clubs [I made that up, but come on, strip clubs love purple lights]– and a stage, and poles. We sat in a booth, and stared at the possibly-​dead-​inside topless woman, writhing emotionless around a pole. A waitress came over, I ordered the Jumbo Chicken Wings [$ 7] with their hot sauce, and my friend ordered a couple beers for us. In a short time, our order came in, and let me tell you, those wings looked pretty good. They weren’t what I would call «jumbo», but they were much larger than, say, BW3’s [no, I will not call it Buffalo Wild Wings. Weck FTW]. There were 8 wings, and they were nicely fried and spicy. As I drowned my sorrows in wings, my friend got in line at the stage for the privilege of putting a dollar bill in some woman’s g-​string. And yes, there was a line.
My friend decided to buy me a lap dance, because, you know, that’s what friends do for friends. This dancer, a spritely young woman with short blonde hair and a love of acrylic shoes and nails, led me out of my booth, and made me sit on a chair in the aisle. She then started grinding on me, and pressed her breasts on my face. Two things went through my mind, 1) she’s kind of smearing up my glasses 2) she smells really fruity. Like, really really fruity, a smell I recognize, but I couldn’t nail down. My dancer wasn’t really looking at me while she pushed her ass in my face, and can you blame her? She’s just earning a buck, not really making this a worthwhile experience for her customers. But yeah, those wings weren’t bad.
Visit 2: After a night of drinking, my friend kept checking Twitter, to see what was going on in Columbus. «Hey, [woman I like, with whom I had a great connection, but she was newly separated, so would it be weird if I asked her out? I don’t want to be the rebound guy, even though I think we really have a connection] is at the Clintonville Farmers Market. We should go.» I don’t know why my friend wanted to go. I guess that’s what friends do, right? Push you in a direction that could result in your happiness. Well, that’s what non-​asshole friends do. We drove to Clintonville, but he read an update from her on Twitter that said she was no longer there.
«That sucks… hey, let’s go to Kahoots!»
«It’s like 11:30am on a Saturday morning!»
«So???»
He had a point. Off we went, this time using entrance fee waiving coupons ripped out of a free local newspaper. Surprisingly, there were quite a few people there. They probably came from the Clintonville Farmers Market, too. Nothing says «Saturday in Columbus» than buying locally-​sourced heirloom tomatoes, and then getting titties shoved in your face. I wasn’t hungry this time, but my friend ordered the Philly Steak Sandwich [$ 9], which he said was pretty decent. I think he ordered sweet potato fries, too. The problem is, fries are not included with the meal. Fries and other sides are $ 5 extra, which is pricey, and really not worth it. Unless all you want is fries, there’s no point getting it in addition to you entrée.
I wasn’t really feeling the Kahoots during this visit, though, even when they played Bell Biv Devoe’s «Poison» [which is a damn good song], and a dancer started doing weird upside-​down moves on the pole. While my friend ate, a dancer kept coming by our table, and eventually sat down next to me, doing that «gentleman’s club flirting”-thing, which basically has the same emotional delivery as the guy begging on the corner who said he needs money for bus fare. But I didn’t want a lap dance, I kinda just wanted to «run into» my friend at the farmer’s market. We would see each other at that one stand, that has a Godzilla figure next to the broccoli. And then maybe we’d get coffee, and talk, and laugh, and smile, and be happy forever and ever. But no, I was sitting there, listening to some woman ask me, «So what do you like to do? You look smart… ever see the champagne room?»
Oh, the fruity smell: Hawaiian Breeze Glade Plug-​In™

COVER: Paid 7 bucks to get in on a Saturday night.
CLUB SETUP: Only one stage area with two poles. Kahoots usually have anywhere from 3 – 4 girls dancing on their stage at any one time. You’ll see them ‘compete’ for the poles. For example, one stripper took her hands off the pole for 30 seconds… another stripper took the opportunity and ‘ran’ over to the pole to snag it away from the other girl.
GIRLS: There’s the whole range here. Girls range from 5 – 8. No stunnas. Few black girls, but mainly white women working here.
DANCES: Dances are $ 30…running 2 for 1s every hour or so. A little pricy and a little tame.

I do not have much to compare to since this was the first and only time I’ve gone to any gentleman’s club. I have not had their food yet but I have herd their drinks are good for their prices.
I am kind of a shy and awkward person and was a little uncomfortable there, but the women were helpful to make me feel welcomed. Most of the women there are very talented and surprised me with their dancing and skill level.
There was one particularly attractive girl covered in tattoos and piercings that I would go back there just to see and have a conversation with. While this is not the place for me, I would recommend this and possibly go back.

Kahoots offers two things: tits and food. Luckily the food is decent, because the tits… not so much. Our waitress had better tits than any of the dancers; unfortunately they’re not allowed to serve topless.

So let’s start with the «WHY» as far as rating Kahoots Gentlemens Club. WHY: cigars and booze. Today’s restaurant and pub environments are non-​smoking. And I agree 110% with the policy. So where can guys go after playing an 18-​hole round of golf to enjoy a tasty cigar and a scotch & soda? Nowhere but Kahoots GC.
There you’ll find an ample outdoor, covered, heated, with TV and sound patio area that has 6 — 7 four-​top tables. Fans run continously so the ventilation is good. No one can avoid the heavy smoke from a cigar but at least you can complete the golfing day with some pleasure.
Talent? Well, that has to be addressed. Kahoots entertainers are lovely and friendly. They’ll chat you up and spend time… of course, they’ll «ask» for business and it’s up to the patron to decide. $ 30 «2-​for-​1» on the hour is okay. The indoor areas are great; nice bar away from the entertainment area. But it’s all about having a fine Dominican «Padron» cigar and a scotch for me. You got a better idea,??? Then pass it along.

Despite the smoking ban in ohio this place still smells really bad and you get acute asthma from coming here too often. The smoker’s patio is in the back and it does not have any good ventilation in the club, so the second you walk in you already can smell that nasty cigarette smell and you feel like going home and taking a shower right away. You will leave here reeking of cigarette smoke even if you just stay for 5 minutes. The cover is free before 2pm but goes up to $ 5 – 10. The drinks are $ 5 – 7 and you will be kicked out if you don’t order something (if you try to order an ice water they will refuse to serve it and demand you order a $ 6.75 bottle of water instead). If it was not for the awful odor in this place and the drink hustle, I would come here more often.

I have to admit, I’m a fan of Kahoots. I’ve been going since… well, at least 2001. I don’t go all the time or anything, but I do go a few times a year.
I first started going when a coworker of mine got a 2^nd job as a cocktail waitress here. Back in those days I actually had lunch a few times, but I soon learned better. The food isn’t terrible, but it’s way too pricey.
After that, the girl next door (literally) was a stripper there for a while, and I would go to see her. I even gave her a few pointers as far as what a guy would want to see (at her request) that purportedly made her quite a bit of money once she implemented them into her routine. Eventually we drifted apart and Kahoots and I parted ways for a while.
A few years later, a few friends of mine from back home and I went after a concert and had a blast. Since then we’ve made a ritual of going every time they come to town for a show. We always have a riot driving around town looking for the Other Paper so we can tear the Kahoots «free admission» coupon out of the back.
The drinks are totally reasonable here. I believe Guinness drafts are three or four bucks, neither of which is bad at all. The girls are significantly better looking than most other clubs I’ve been to, and Melanie is right, they do smell good. They aren’t too pushy when they make their rounds looking for takers, generally speaking, and most of them are good at making small talk, which helps pass the time on occasion.
I approve.

I still love Kahoots, I still love love love it. Yes, I came here on my birthday, yes I enjoy getting close to strippers (they smell good and I like ‘em, what?) and yes the boy likes it and likes that I like it (so glad I found someone who shares me recreational interests!) This is truly how lasting bonds are formed. ;)
Since I already wrote a review, I will tell you what I *really* enjoy about Kahoots — other than watching little old men spending their social security money on having t&a rubbed in their face for a price. I really enjoy that all of the ladies here, though they are not all my type, are all actually quite pretty, respectful, and classy (for being strippers, of course). I’m also a fan of the ladies who seem to be having fun — I truly think that makes the atmosphere pretty. This time around, the waitress asked if we were a couple. I wasn’t sure what she was getting at but I told her we were, and the ladies all left us alone (as in, they didn’t come up to us and ask us if we wanted a private something-​something), which I found nice, as I think that might be a bit awkward (what does one really do with oneself for *that* long when one can’t touch the strippers?). However, we did, yes, go up to the stage and get me a little birthday present — much to our waitress’s delight. The ladies were all really nice, one even did some sort of trick with a dollar bill that involved my t and her a. Juss’ sayin. ;)
Anyway, I’m saying this place is a nice and fairly upscale. It doesn’t feel trashy (unless you’re the guilty/​moral type, I suppose). It’s fun. Wholesome even. I recommend it. In fact, the boy and I are planning a big couples dinner here for some of our friends so that we can spread the love.

More of a lounge than a strip club, Kahoots is more of a place to hang out and just observe the dancers than interact. There are more booth seating for drinks with friends than seats in front or facing the couple of stages this place has.
The girls are cute and good looking but won’t work too hard for tips. I believe it is a free after midnight to get in so that is a plus if stopping by after a bar visit or a party turned out to be a dud.
