B J’s Liquor Lounge

«Voted best strip club» on the marquee– by who? Never have I seen a more ragged collection is bullet wounds and amputees and that’s just the dancers. It’s am experience, but hey… you get what you pay for.

This place is awesome. Super mellow city bar with some hot-​topless action that will not cost you and arm & a leg. They also has free parking. Cheep beers & authentic. Just know what to expect and you will have a great time.

BJ’s has been around forever. The dancers are good for a dive bar, and disappointing for a «gentleman’s club», though some of the downtown «gentleman’s club“s are no better (Choice comes to mind). It’s very relaxed, so the review that says they waited 5 minutes and no one took their drink order is not amazing. Most of the guys there sit at the bar and ignore the dancers. A few guys are apparently regulars and dancers will come sit with them and talk. At any given time, there’s probably one guy getting a lap dance against the back wall — not too much privacy, but the dances are full contact, with the no-​patron-​touching rules enforced. There are sports programs on that get as much attention as the dancers.

I have to agree with Dan’s review below — BJ’s is exactly what I expected, and absolutely nothing like what I expected. It was an experience, one to add to the books. Hot shot regulars, drunken dancers, and a cash only bar. Not somewhere I’m going to become a regular at, that’s for sure.
If I want to see some naked ladies, I’m more likely to hit up the Seville in Downtown.

BJ’s is exactly what I thought it would be. BJ’s is nothing like I thought it would be. I guess I had no idea what to expect, except that there would be naked women inside. I was correct in this assessment.
I have tried on a couple of occasions to try this place out and it has never worked because they close early. Both other times I stopped in were around midnight and it was closed.
I had some friends in town for the weekend and we had some time to kill before a Twins game so I gave BJ’s a shot.
You walk in to a room with pool tables, darts, and video games. Then walk up a couple steps to the bar area. It looks like a typical dive bar, circular bar in the center of the room. Stage behind the bar, but no places to sit around stage. You can either sit at the bar or one of a dozen or so tables.
You can get booze and beer at BJs. Drinks are reasonable for a naked place. I recall beers were $ 4 and mixed drinks were $ 5 – 6.
There is no cover charge at BJs.
If you want to get close to the strippers, there is a place to stand at either end of the stage. You belly up to the stage, plop down of fiver and you get a minute or two standing table dance.
I was happy with this situation. It was a better dance than what you would get putting a buck down at sniffer’s row at most clubs, and pretty comparable to what you would get at a table dance. One of the big reasons that I don’t usually buy table dances is that I don’t want to drop $ 20 bucks for a 3 minute dance. But $ 5 for 90 seconds ain’t that bad.
They have 4 dancers working at a time. Of the four, one was unbelievably hot, as in like a 10. Two were good, as in better than an average stripper at an average strip club. One of the ladies was about 50 and pretty saggy and wrinkly, but not entirely unattractive.
My crew stuck out at BJs. The typical patron at BJ’s is man from 45 – 60, someone who probably has a motorcycle, a non-​ironic handlebar mustache, probably served a couple years in prison for a cocaine or assault conviction, and likely has some tattoos. With that said, I didn’t really feel out of place or unwelcome.
Their men’s room has one toilet, no stall, no lock. Apparently, they had problem with patrons using drugs in the bathroom before.
Also, the strippers do not solicit dances. If you want a dance, you go to the stage, you are not pestered by strippers.
It was surprisingly busy at 2 p.m. on a Friday afternoon, something like 30 guys in there.

I’m not 100% sure if this place is still open (I’m not from Minneapolis) but as far as I can tell, it is. This raunchy bar features topless servers and stripper poles for entertainment.
We entered on a Saturday afternoon to find the place populated by a handful of middle-​aged men watching middle-​aged dancers shaking what was left of their sagging booty.
It was only sparsely busy, but we were completely ignored. After several minutes passed with no one taking our drink order, we gave up and left.
