Finding myself at a "gentleman's club" and then looking forward to going again is akin to RuPaul attending a Republican Fundraising Convention wearing a fuchsia-sequined spandex onesie and gold boots, being the center of adoration and subsequently promising to "Let's keep in touch, mmkay?" or "Give my love to Patty and the kids, Trent!" with her new BFFs.
Well, throw up a searchlight and send out a self-destructing memo because RuPaul must have some conservative leanings!!??? Why? Because I love me some Gold Club!!!
$5 cover charge on Fridays at noon will get you an amply stocked buffet lunch including:
fresh,colorful melons
nutritious tossed salads
fried chicken breasts and thighs
zesty and meaty ribs
crisp and salty taquitos
tenderly moist cookies
But what's most importantly, the girls (ranging from fours to dimes) will give you a show that's as predictable as the tigers at the San Francisco Zoo.
I was totally humbled by the ladies poppin' it like corks at midnight on the 31st of December, shakin' it like chirren guesstimating the dollar amount of coins in they's piggybanks and breakin' it like it was the DaVinci Code and they was Robert Langdon forrealthoughhay!!
Just wanted to THANK wise costumers that know how be real gentleman and know how to tip properly when they want to strike a conversation without getting dances.
Keep in mind that we some of us are paying babysitters and we are all tipping coworkers, and paying fees to entertain you and make sure YOU HAVE A GOOD TIME. So please try to be generous and considering towards our staff.
I've checked most clubs in SF and this is for sure the highest end club with top exotic dancers and proffessional staff in this city.
xoxoxo,
Girl from Ipanema.
Ok, I am not really a fan of strip clubs. I feel like it's just giving yourself blue balls.
But, as far as things go, this place was pretty decent. Went here for the start of a bachelor party, and there was no cover before 7PM (or if you have a local hotel key card). Plus there were specials on well drinks and draft beer. Plus a discount for using AmEx, strangely enough.
Women were of a good range of body types. We got the bachelor some attention from a 'suicide girls' type. Not too expensive. Though I don't get the rotation: A woman gets on stage, then goes to this unlit side stage that is all isolated and has no chairs near it, and then she can give lap dances. What's with the dark mini-stage?
Finally checked out their $5 buffet Fridays. I didn't go with food in mind, though I have dined at the GC before, but I just wanted to check it out especially with a strip club virgin in tow. We got there at 1:30, so the food selection wasn't as much (there was curry, rice, fried chicken, steamed veggies and fruit) but I managed to snack on figs and watermelon while sipping some $4 happy hour cocktails.
Though it's only $5 to get in during the buffet lunch, I spent a lot more on my strip club virgin and let him have all the fun this time (but if it were me, well, let's just say that it wouldn't be my first time having fun to the point of getting a phone number from a dancer!)
this is the only strip club [been there 3 times total, one of the times was to celebrate my 23rd… Read more »
you know your life is taking a bad turn in life when.....
the parking attendant asks, wheres your buddy?
the bathroom attendant asks, malboro lights right?
the mamasan says to her manager, they are here as much as i am, theyre fine.
the ladies remember what kinds of drinks you like.
the ladies are giving you their phones numbers instead of the other way around.
i need a new hobby.
no but actually, the place is a nice place to grab a drink... no really. hot hapa lady that came with us said something i hear pretty often from the ladies that come with us..... this place isnt creepy at all. its actually pretty nice. weve had many a great times here, i think joshua hiding behind some folks when he saw boobies is still top ten fun times at gc.... this is the palce id bring any strip club virgin. unlike many places ive been to, this really can qualify as a bar that just happens to have topless woman around. most places, you cant hide the fact its a strip club. a lot of times, here, while deep in conversations, laughing my ass off, and drinking, i totally forgot, oh yeah, BOOBIES!!
fyi, for now, no cover before 6ish on school nights and we all know friday lunchbox.
Its a Friday afternoon, the start of labor day weekend and the office is empty ... what do you do? You treat yourself to a $5 all you can eat buffet with eye poppin entertainment. Yelpers it was a fun adventure to head out of the duldrums of my cube and dare myself and a friend to have lunch at the Gold Club. $5 all you can eat - fried chicken, salad, fruit, coconut rice and cookies. Let's not forget the sultry sexy moves of the Gold Club dancers.
So the club it self is really dark inside, with ladies walking around and not wearing much. So you can't really see your food, the only lights are on the stage, the stairs and walkways. Not to mislead anyone this is a strip club where you just happen to be eating loads of fried chicken while watching ladies dance. it can be awkward seeing other people get lap dances while eating, seems kind of strange combo. But it was fun and it made a Friday lunch interesting and different.
seriously, it might sound dirty and weird, but this strip club is one of the best lunch deals in the city(friday only). $5 for an all-you-can-eat buffet while watching strippers do their thang? um, hi! and it's actually a pretty good buffet too. fried chicken breasts(hehe), pasta, ribs, salad, and big-ass cookies. throw in $4 well drinks/beers and i dare you to find a better friday afternoon option. a lot of people come here during their lunch break and some of them actually seemed more interested in the food.
the girls were pretty hot. it got a little annoying to have them constantly badgering you for a lap dance, but there are worse things to complain about. i love the bathroom here because it's well-equipped with various cologne, including one of my fave's(versace blue). they have a smoking room, although when i wanted to smoke, it was filled with only strippers. no thanks. lastly, the cocktail waitresses did a great job of bringing drinks promptly. no need to get up and go to the bar at all..
Every 1st Thursday night there are guys who bare all. Most of the guys were a bit scrony. I had a front row seat and the dancers were so oiled up that I would get a splash or two every so often. You get a lot for five bucks though. The drinks are way over priced. I had a good time but I'm darn sure the dancers have larger muscles at chip n dales.
Today I was going to write a review of epic intellectual proportions. The critics would have oohed and aahed over it and sent it straight to the publishing houses, which would of fought over it until the government stole the rights away and put it directly into a museum, to be ogled at for all time.
Instead, I went to the Gold Club for Fried Chicken Fridays. What? A $5 entry fee includes all-you-can-eat buffet and almost more thigh, breast and leg than you can handle in one sitting. We were there for a Chamber of Commerce meeting (this is how business gets done, people) and strangely enough, we never found our party.
Maybe we were distracted by the naked women? The gals are all cute, albeit somewhat tranquilized. I found myself wishing they would dance a little grindy-er, gyrate a little faster or put some guy in a headlock between their legs. I was feeling a little unfulfilled until we saw Shelby perform... dang, that girl went up the pole and pulled out more tricks than a circus monkey.
Forget the review accolades... I'm trading in fame and fortune for a piece, er, a glimpse, of ass.
I was in the mood for some drinks and titties one night. Michael objected because he'd only been to the Hustler club. I managed to overpower him so the next night we found ourselves here.
I got lost getting there. Why?? I had a stressful day at work, couldn't find the right clothes, I couldn't think past that first martini.....So I got lost.
Upon getting there though, it was awesome!! I mean, I am a chick and I thought this club was classy. The girls were scantily clad but gives a shit!
Michael and I sat down and and I ordered a martini. Michael had already had something like 4 (four!!) Scooby Snacks!! All I know about the drink is that it is sweet (bleck!) and syrupy. I, on the other hand, love drinks straight up without a chaser. No sugar for me, just on my tits.
So we sat there for a while watching the girls on stage and also the ones walking around. The first to approach us, Akina, was Thai, but didn't stay long. Two other girls also approached and I actually bought a lap dance for Michael from one of the girls who's name is Nina. Boring!! I could tell he was bored, too, so I turned my attention elsewhere. There was an Asian girl walking around with long hair and huge assed tree tattoo on her back. She went on the stage next, and OMG!! I dragged Michael up to the stage...Of course there were six other Korean women at the stage throwing money at this girl. She was gorgeous and totally hot! She came crawling up to me and we had this total eye contact thing going. Michael tried to put a dollar bill into her g-string and she shied away, telling him that she wanted ME to put one there!! She wouldn't leave until I did so and I was so embarrassed!
My experience of the Gold Club can be summoned up in one word: HOT!!
Where are all the cute girls?
:o(
Also, I don't take kindly to people who sell me a bottle of champagne 10 minutes before they're going to try to take it away from me. I get last call, but does last call mean I can't finish what I've already purchased?
I've been here twice now, both times memorable, even though I was drunk off my tail the first time.… Read more »
This place was way more awesome than I was expecting it to be. We've kind of avoided going here because Boyfriend and I have such a love for Centerfolds. But we were staying at a hotel just a couple blocks away, had already spent a million dollars on cabs that day and just wanted to go somewhere we could walk. Alas, we finally made it to the Gold Club.
And Jesuse Fudge! Why haven't we made it here before?!? So what if the girls aren't as hot or as naked? THEY HAVE BOOZE! I've been to many a strip club in my time, but normally I feel like if you're going to pay the money, they better get all the way naked. So this experience was very enlightening for me. I'll give up the bottomlessness for alcohol any time.
The only thing I didn't like about this place was that the girls totally avoided me and my man (TOTALLY opposite of our normal experiences at other establishments) and instead went for the single old men who they thought would have money or buy dances from them.
We have money. And we buy dances. But the girls had no interest in us. Which is fine - we had a great time together anyway, enjoyed some cocktails and booby shaking before heading out on our merry way.
Friday $5 Lunch Buffet! (plus 1 drink minimum)
After a long, FUN night of partying and staying at the W, my girls and I decided to continue the fun and go check out the lunch buffet at Gold Club.
The food was surprisingly decent! They had salad, fried chicken, bbq ribs, corn on the cob, pasta, fruit, cookies. The ribs, chicken, and cookies were my favorites
Even though it's lunch time, the girls go on stage and do their thing. They were all attractive, but not super hot. I'm sure they save those girls for the busy night time. None of the girls came up to our group since we were all girls, but they approached the many groups of men that were there. We were the only female customers there except for one other.
Quite an entertaining experience and all for under $10! Well worth it!
Note: This review is for the food only, other activities or performances are just a bonus and will be lightly referenced.
Lights and sparkles, closed off access to the outside world, the smell of baby powder all over, and glamorous paintings on the wall. It makes for a perfect ambiance for a delightful meal.
And which meal might that be? a FIVE DOLLAR Friday Lunch Buffet. Where else can you find a buffet meal for $5. They had fruits, cakes, curry pork, fried chicken, and steamed vegetables. Hey, for $5, that's pretty good already. The curry pork was surprisingly tender and tasty. The the fried chicken was crisp and meaty.
And what the heck, the girls weren't exactly what I expected, but a few of them were nice. Nova and Ciara, definitely, my new favorites for Fridays at the Gold Club. Definitely gonna come back some other time, although the idea of coming out of a gentlemen's club at 3pm is rather odd, what better way than to spend your friday lunches.
I come here hope to see hot women. I hear people can drink things other than soda and water. I was happy.
I go in and see attractive women but women only show breast. I want to see no clothes. If I want to see this I go to beach.
You know that common belief.. that if you really love your job, it reflects upon your work.
I just happened to met a dancer that night, who's a living testament to that saying. Aside from being absolutely stunning with legs of a runway model. She had a witty personality to match.
Me: Wow! Those are some amazing heels. How tall are they?
Her: About an inch for every year I worked here.
Me: o rly?
Her: I've been here nine year.
Me: O_O
Can't say I've been here any other time than $5/50¢ a tit Friday buffet. Sometimes watching the patrons is more entertaining than the girls. But I still keep returning and am at this point *ahem* well-versed in it. A few "tricks" of the trade...
The hordes pack through the door right before noon, so if you don't want to fight em or tear into that fried chicken standing up, I'd suggest waiting until the crowds leave and wandering in around 1:15.
Make good with the house mom. Someone's gotta direct the girls stage left, right? She's so warm and awesome, in fact, that I'm considering following in her footsteps and making a career of it. As mom, I mean. Not a dancer. We wouldn't want to put the other strip clubs out of biz, now do we?
A last word of advice, pretty much every brew I've had there has been flat besides Sierra. They go down pretty, and you'll need it.
when friday lunch rolls around i am blessed with chicks on poles and a edible buffet for FIVE BUCKS!… Read more »
As I've mentioned repeatedly (and only do so for my new viewers), I grew up in Nevada. Northern Nevada, to be exact. Or as my friend Amanda says, this nice but trashy place where you can buy meth on every corner. To be quite honest, I never saw these supposed meth salespeople, but I'll go with it. While living there, I managed to hit all 4 clubs in the city, many times. Once even with one of Oakland's finest firefighters who basically bought me a girl. She was very sweet. I wonder how she's doing. I think we were supposed to go to the movies or something...but it never happened.
Anyway, this privileged upbringing along with a very brief (1 week) stint as a cocktail waitress in a gentleman's club has made me somewhat of a doyen of strip clubs. That and I just read "Candy Girl" by Diablo Cody which made me see those hardworking ladies in a whole new light. Black light, that is.
Although I was mightily impressed with the setup for the 5 year anniversary (free booze! free food! free boo...oh, those aren't free)- I was not in the least bit impressed with the talent. Although I'm a big fan of the Xanax, I am not a fan of girls who want MY DOLLAR BILLS ingesting it immediately before going on stage and moving as if they were swimming in a vat of KY Jelly. Sure, some of them have some mad pole skills (I said POLE), but on the night of this anniversary, I expected their A game. Not their C(omatose) game. Sure, the circus acts were kind of neat- trapeze/hanging pole/hanging scarf things- but are those going to be there the next time I come? Huh? Also, if I place a bill on that bar, I expect to slide that crispness into a g-string that was so lovingly chosen, not have some girl scurry for dollar bills at the end of the song. Making a few turns around the pole and staring at yourself in the mirror is not considered "work." Sing for your supper, ladies! Also, has the "I'm going to take your money out from between your teeth with my boobies" gone away? I mean, I got boobs in my face, but they weren't from any of the hired help. Also, although I should be grateful for the free booze, I was disappointed when they took my champagne away before I finished it.
I hear the lunch buffet is fabulous, and I may come back for that, but I can't imagine I'll come here for a fun night at a strip club. If the girls on stage aren't having the time of their lives, how can I?
I really like the Gold Club because I really like showing boys how I can hang. I can appreciate a good pole dance like no other..I mean i've taken classes before and that is HARD work. So I take the tequila shots. And I put the dollas where they need to go. I can appreciate... and I can TOTALLY hang with the boys.
I really liked the atmosphere, dark and sleek, not sleezy. But not overdone like the clubs of Vegas. I would have given a solid 5 stars if it weren't for the management not letting us sit up front. Since we were a mixed group of girls and boys they put us off to the side, and one of my girlfriends who was a regular was NOT having it. Seemed kind of silly on their behalf since the place was virtually empty and we were spending lots. Respect.
Quesadillas and chicken fingers...mmm....
I met some nice girls, including one who danced for my friend after we had a fun conversation about her sweet little nephew...getting to know the girls is the part we don't let the boys see.
Friends like coming here for lunch, but for us the average Tuesday night was good. I got in free. It's kinda pretentious but I also sorta liked the Voss water bottles. Because this is a classy place, they have fancy water.
Yes, I'm a hetreosexual girl and I went with my friends to the Gold Club. Why? Just for fun! Seriously people, girls can also enjoy going to the Gold Club. Not only were it some of my friends who thought it was odd for a girl to go to the Gold Club, but also the guys at the Gold Club (guests) were suprised by the fact that a group of girls walked in on a normal Friday afternoon. Why guys? Girls just wanna have fun! Even the Gold Club girls understood why we were there and they were all cool and mellow about it, why can't you guys?!
Yes, we were asked for "private time" several times by the Gold Club girls. But others understood that we were there just to have fun and started talking to us as "one of us". Yes, the girls are very nice and friendly. Not trashy at all! They have class.
The buffet, don't expect too much, but I assume most people who go to the Gold Club don't really go there for the food. I'm not saying it is not good, cause the food they serve is pretty tasty (I mean, it's free!), but the diversity of the food is very little (4 different kinds of dishes). But then again, it's free!
The drinks are really good ($4 during the entire day, until 7PM) with a good amount of alcohol in there (no, they are not cheap, just because it is happy hour!).
Honestly, I had my doubts before I went here, but it's really worth it and very classy! Girls (& guys of course too!) just go here with a group of girls and have fun! You'll have a nice evening with your girls. And if not, well, it was only $5 to get in!
I still can't believe 9 of my coworkers and I work for the largest Corporation in Northern California (will not mention the name) and went here for lunch on a Friday. After, we went back to our desk jobs like nothing happenned.
$5 Friday lunch buffets with salad, fried chicken, jalapeno poppers, fresh fruit, mashed potatoes, etc. Amateur strippers working the pole, go ahead and make that money, don't let it make you, Booty Booty Booty Booty rocking everywhere!
Most of the strippers were hot. I only saw 1 pair of fake breasts. I've only been to one other strip club in SF and between them, I noticed that most strippers in SF have real boobs.
There were a lot of Giants shirt wearing men there (I think there was a game that day and they were killing time before it) and other Corporate American on their lunch break men. I got hit on twice, which surprised me since I was wearing my Corporate America bitch suit and the only thing exposed was my face, neck, and hands.
There's no Cooyatches that are shown, dirty perverts, lol. Only breasts which keeps it classy. If you want to see the C U Next Tuesday S, go to Garden of Eden, lol.
Good music and good fried chicken!
Yeah, that's right, I'm yelping a strip club.
Shhhh..... Don't tell my Mom.
Today I was hungry, well what's new right? I usually dine on Fridays with some lovely co-workers and we either eat at Chevy's, Kate O'Briens or 21st Amendment. but today I rebelled! Instead I went dining with a different co-worker and we went to ......
5 Dollar Fridays!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wait, let me say that again. 5 DOLLAR FRIDAY'S!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What's that you ask? Well I'm sure previous reviewers have explained it thoroughly enough but I'll try to add something new. It's quite simple really. You walk up to the door where the nice door man opens it for you and ushers you inside. I guess if you look young you get carded (there are mostly naked girls inside after all). I must look old because I've never been carded here :( You hand over 5 bucks (and if you're feeling generous a tip) to the cashierette. Then you walk on inside.
Head straight back to the bar because that's where the buffet is, grab some food, find a table, sit down, eat your free lunch buffet and watch some girls shake what their momma gave 'em.
Here's a few points. First off when you hear the word buffet don't imagine Vegas. Instead imagine a small, intimate pot luck. There isn't a whole lot here. Every time I've been it's the same thing, cut fruit, salad, fried chicken, some pasta or rice dish and a brownie. Oh, they never run out, but the menu isn't varied.
The other point is; 'Holy construction worker Batman!' This place is full of em. I personally happen to like construction workers so all the better for me to entertain myself with man watching.
There's plenty of suits in here too and my friend and I weren't the only girls either. There's always at least half a dozen non-dancers in here enjoying the 5 dollar lunch buffet and watching the show or watching the men watch the show.
Today there was some talent! There was this one girl who did amazing things on that pole. I can't really tell you anymore because I would feel like I was divulging some ancient strip club secret of the variety that
is highly valued, prized and protected. Suffice it to say, you should bear witness to this wonder!
....then I came back to my desk at my Corporate American job, acted like nothing exciting just happened and wrote this review.
I'll be going back!
I took my bf for a Friday lunch buffet (only $5 each person) and halfy disappointed at the really stupid food (salad a cookies only. are u serious?) but didn't care much since the cover charge was only $5. However, the bartender (this stupid asian guy) was a total bitch. even the cocktail waitresses were complaining how slow he was and rolled their eyes on him. He didn't take my order until he saw my stash. effin jerk. and he made the worst cocktail ever.
anyways, about the girls. some of them are pretty decent looking and some of them are just fat. i wouldn't have cared too much only if they were good at pole dancing and none of them knew how to climb up the poll and do a pole dance. all they did was get topless and shake their booties.
For a $5 lunch show i think it was well worth the money, but i don't think i'll ever go during the regular days wehre they charge more. and plus, definitely will not order from the bar......... the bartender really was a deutsche bag
Me: OMG look she's twirling
Me: Dang.... her legs are strong..
T: ...her skin is so flawless from over here..
E: You're ruining it...
Me: Her boobs are meh...
Me: but, *her boobs are nice.
Me: ooo cute undies
Me: I want her butt. It's so perfect.
E: *menacing look*
Me: I mean.. DAMN.. Her ass is HAWT
E: thas right.
I've seen strippers before, but it was my first time at a gentleman's club. I appreciate the:
1. Diversity
2. A lot of the boobs are natural
3. $5 lunch buffet on Friday! (Mashed potatoes, fried chicken, and chocolate chip cookies.. woot!)
Ever find your Friday lunch to be lacking.. well ( o Y o ) s and (_ Y _) s are what's missing! Still I'm more amazed by their almost Cirque du Soleil skills than anything else!
I haven't been to a lot of strip clubs in my time but a couple of weeks ago I was required to since I was in a bachelor party. I ended up leaving the club at 2am thinking, "why the f**k don't we come here more often". Now, you may be thinking I was talking about the naked women but that was actually at the very bottom of my list of pros.
Here's a quick breakdown of why I like this place:
* The $20 cover keeps the barrier to entry at a nice level (less crowded).
* The music was freaking fantastic (and no they didn't play U2 all night).
* There was a noticable lack of douchebags (strange for SF on a Saturday).
* There was air conditioning and plenty of seats so it was very comfortable.
* Getting a beer was super easy (the drinks are all $8)
* It wasn't all guy customers, there were girls there as customers as well.
* There were really attractive women dancing. (see, I put this at the bottom of the list!)
Seriously though, I am giving this place five stars because it was one of the easiest nights out in SF in a very long time. Compared to going to Harlot or Slide, this was a breeze and we all had a great time just shooting the shit, while having a few beers.
In the future it'll be very hard to decide to go to a regular club in SF at 11pm on a weekend night, you just know you're going to deal with more hassle than you do at the Gold Club. Nice job Gold Club, you paid attention to the word "club" in "strip-club" and did a great job.
Is pervy of me to give 5 "sexy" stars to a gentleman's club i visited during my lunch hour? Well, sit back and allow me to describe what awaits you at a typical weekday lunch at Gold Club, SOMA's finest adult entertainment/$5 buffet in one...
Did you catch that? A $5 buffet. Yes, the food is mediocre at best, but after heavy drinking the night before, an all-you-can-eat spread of fried chicken, ribs, mashed potatoes (I think that's what they were...), fruit, and chocolate chip cookies on the cheap was welcomed with open arms. I suggest avoiding the tub of ranch dressing. If it seems counter-intuitive to spend your hangover lunch in a bar/strip joint (aside from the fried food), let me assure you it is not. A really dark space with soothing music and slow-moving company? C'mon!
Enter: Phoenix, a testament to womankind and the star of our visit. Without giving away all of her moves, let me just tell you that this girl shimmied up a 20-foot pole in seconds and touched the (high) ceiling with the sole of her 10" platform shoes! Girlfriend's got some skills. And *most* of the dancers were pretty with nice bods and respectable moves. They also didn't seem to mind a group of girls who were obviously there for kicks and cheap fried chicken gawking at them. In fact, the whole staff seems very welcoming, since this spot gets a lot of business from the SOMA/Fi-Di lunch crowds.
Last, but not least, this trip was educational. Apparently (who knew!), a lap dance is some seriously serious business. I could see one in action in the VIP lounge and it looked pretty gnarly. Never seen one of those before. Surprises abound at Gold Club!
So when it comes to the sexual side...
...if it's a good experience, some require a cigarette.
I require minimal pleasures... to amuse my bouche... a cupcake... or maybe a piece of cheese.
But as Gold Club has it, there may not be an orgasm but there is some crazy sexualness... and there is a BUFFET!
I just got back from their famous $5 buffet (hello, BUFFET?) and it was pretty awesome. I had never been to a strip club before (I'm 24 - what a loser) so it was a double whammy. Food, boobs.. and bootie.
The buffet was better than Hometown, but still pretty average. The bucket of ranch kind of looked suspicious, so I didn't prepare a salad.
But Fridays here are the greatest psychology lesson and just REALLY fun. It was probably the greatest lunch hour I had. The pole work was impressive, my favorite part however is when the strippers make their platforms click.
It puts a little POP in my day. Fierce, bitch... fierce!
BTW, greatest quote of the night... set up is I went here with another fellow gay and our mutual fag hag.
Gays love the boobs, however anything else is pretty terrifying
The stripper is doing some sort yoga-like position on the floor. Her legs looked like the entrance to the "Moulin Rouge." She started squirming across the floor... I turn to our fag hag, "Is that what a girl looks like when she is doing the deed?"
She gives me a weird look, "Uh, yeah? I think so? OH WAIT, you guys wouldn't know - would you?"
We all let out a chuckle. Maybe you just had to be there.
Interesting experience...what I could recall. The girls were cute and very friendly but their dancing for a Saturday seemed sedated- I even watched one chick roll her eyes while on stage... which I found entertaining!!
The ladies were in great shape and I only spied 1 set of fake boobs.
Happy Hour draft beer is $4 which is not bad.
It seems like you don't have to pay before 7pm. Ask me how I know? I left my id and credit card in my drunken stupor and had to go back during the day shift on a weekday to pick it up! Oh yes, easy access to BART.
There are many unoccupied ladies there during the day...even at 12pm there were like 15 chickies hanging out.
I was suprised to find: people really do order food there, the bathrooms are clean, there is a glass smokers room and they do make up creative names! Our cocktail waitresses name was Franny Pants, she was sweet.
The 20 minutes I was there during the weekday trip titties were NOT bared on stage. Guess no one was contributing so she kept them under wraps.
Since this is my first experience at a club I don't have much to compare it to. I will say that the service if VERY friendly, it seemed clean but the experience was pretty tame. No ping pong balls flying around or anything of that nature.
Ok so I have a friend who frequents this place (more like he is there every time he gets a good buzz) and gets in for free. So on a recent Sunday I was kidnapped to the Gold Club with a dozen roses for the ladies and had a blast. I got so much attention it was PRICELESS AND I AM GAY...
Very classy space with a friendly bar staff and a nice floor lay out. You can see the performers from any angle
So everyone who knows me knows that I'm a perv. But for me, mixing food and sex crosses the line. Nevertheless, Winston M., Danielle D. and I headed over here for $5 lunch buffet after making a previous visit for Danielle D.'s birthday. The plates were dirty, the jalepeno poppers, which i usually love, were a disappointment, the cookies were brittle, the chicken wings were nasty, but MAN them taquitos were happenin'! We definitely loaded up on those and the mashed potatoes. Winston M. and I were sorely disappointed when they ran out.
But at least his disappointment faded once our favorite dancer came out and waved at him! That smile could not be wiped off from his face. I could have twisted his balls like a balloon animal and he would still be grinning from ear to ear. I have to admit, she is hot. Shout out to Mandy! Guurrrl you fooine!
The rest of the girls are ok. I got a lap dance from this petite blond girl who looked like a mini Shakira. She told me she was 30 and while she was giving me a lap dance, we talked about her boob implants. She said they were old because she got them when she was 17. Mmmm turn on.... .... Then she kept insisting that I put my hand on her ass. I really didn't want to. The whole thing just felt awkward. So awkward that I tried to break the awkwardness by giving her a lap dance. She just stood there. But I think she enjoyed it. I actually think they want to hire me and they're just waiting for me to go back so they get the chance to... ... man I want to be a stripper.
Would you like your ass with a side of CLASS? Well, Gold Club just might be calling your name! Talk about a winning combination... spicy tuna rolls, quesadillas and hamburgers, coupled with upscale "performance art" and a full bar? Win, win, win!
The interior is very clean and leaves zero room for grimy vibrations. Nice lighting, friendly staff and an above-average array of Tuesday afternoon entertainers. When you roll through for lunch, cover is a fat goose egg... so you get a lot of bang-for-your-buck, so to speak.
I didn't have an opportunity to revisit the location after the sun went down, but I can imagine it only gets better from here. Being that this fleshy display of greatness is a little on the steep side... it's not for everybody. I'm a firm believer in the anecdote, "you get what you pay for," however, so I didn't mind shelling a few extra duckets for quality. If you're shopping for copper, I wouldn't recommend you blow your two-week paycheck at Gold Club. If you're looking to peel a dimer and have some expendable cash flow at your disposal, you've just hit the Emerald City.
What do you do when your mom is in town? I take mine to the Gold Club with 20 of my rowdy, sleazy friends. Yes, she is terrified. No, she isn't a lesbian or a swinger. Yes, she enjoyed herself immensely.
The girls are alright but the real draw is the $5 lunch buffet on Fridays. Please believe this is the cheapest lunch (and best deal) in the Fidi-Soma area. If you don't have any drinks or buy any lap dances, you can seriously get in and out for $5 even. Now that's a seductive offer even without a side of boobs.
Try the chicken strips, mashed potatoes, and chewy cookies. Pass on the fruit (what do strippers know about fruit!?) and the veggies. You're already being bad- why bother eating your vegetables?
A woman, a gay man, and two straight guys walk into a strip club... No, it's no the beginning of a raunchy joke... it was the beginning of my Friday night.
I'm not your typical guy when it comes to strip clubs. I actually hate them (Despite that statement, I'm one of the straight guys BTW). I think they are pointless, silly and a big waist of money (and self esteem). But, when the rest of the group wanted to go to the Gold Club because the bar we were planning on going to sucked, I had to go along with the group. I begrudgingly paid my $20 entrance fee and ordered my first of two overly priced watered down drinks.
We were greeted by the standard wave of scantily clad women at the door, smiling in a way that makes you feel as if you actually have a shot with one of them... Girls of course who are only working in such a place to put themselves through law school. While these girls were your typical mixture of woman, a type for a variety of tastes, I was quite surprised to see the quality of girl on stage.
I don't really want to get into a review of the women working here because i feel like it would be far too demeaning and chauvinistic. I will say that I remember feeling bad for one girl who was on stage and all the men in the front row got up in the middle of her act and left, not having thrown down or stuffed a single dollar into her sparkly g-string. I almost wanted to toss some money onto the stage to make her feel a little better, but I didn't.
It was at this point when one of our group (the other straight guy) decided it was time for a lap dance. Not for himself, but rather for the one person who had been eying one of the barely dressed women harder than all of us... the one person in our group who could not shut up about wanting a lap dance from this particular dancer who had caught her eye... that's right, her eye... the woman in our group (lets call her "Rachel") had been talking about getting a lap dance all night.
Rachel could not have been more happy when the dancer finally made her way to our table. She quickly sat on Rachel's lap waiting for the next song to begin; Rachel was giddy with joy. During the performance Rachel could barely contain herself as her hands roamed freely across the landscape of the dancers body (something typically not allowed for the male patrons). I'm sure the song ended far to soon for Rachel, who at this point was probably wishing for the extended version of Free Bird rather than a trimmed down version of Bawitdaba. The dancer got up, smiled at us all and did her best to get a new customer at the table. But we didn't want to demean what her and Rachel had just shared together, so we declined.
Soon after Rachel's dance we decided it was time to leave. All in all we were only there for about a half hour. I would normally say I didn't get my money's worth... but seeing the joy that we were able to bring to "Rachel" seemed to make it all worth while. If strip clubs are your thing, then I'm sure you would enjoy The Gold Club. But for me, I don't think I'll be back.
Tatum Has Got The Jugs!
Lets just say..the sun was shining today. I was dressed in my sun dress vintage finest. I thought today was the five buck buffet. I was HUNGRY. I was on Lower Haight. I had just enough petrol fumes to make it. I had to circle in my Earth Assault Vehicle but I found a spot. I had some quarters for the meter. 30 minutes. I eat fast.
Lo & behold wrong day but entrance into the club is FREE Monday through Thursday 11:30 am until 7:00 pm. Hell What you say? The Doorman Who likes food too, said Come on In... Drinks are $4.00 during All Day Happy Hour. WHAT?? It is so hard to find a Good Party Deal in the City Nowadays.
There were so many memories just being in this club. Club Deja Vu KMEL Rick Chase I won a party for 20 in the VIP section in 1991. Food and drinks were included. I have photos. There was Salsa night and Stripper night. The bar was in the Center and wide and long oval bar.
It had a Space Silver decor. None of the seating upstairs was glass- enclosed. There was a big Beautiful Stage. You could rent out the spot for $1,000 a night not including the bar.
The SF Fire Dept is still there. Thank God. Hotel W is on the block. I have member privy there... ooooh forget W's Bar. Unless you can expense account it.
I will be back domani for the Mammaries, The Booze Patron Silver and Beer Chaser. and the food. I hear it gets Crowded!! Well word is out now. I picked up some flyers and I am going to go hand them out to my Sunset Boys eh! This is how the West was won.
Infodiva Freak with Lesbian Tendencies is very Prideful .
I love this place. It's a few blocks from my job, and while you don't get to see what's under the thong, and they have to cover up during lap-dances and getting close to you on stage, you still get what you pay for. When my buddy and I go around 3:30 after work, it's only $5 to get in, the girls are pretty good, and the place overall is just quite classy. Not sleazy, not dirty, kept very nice, and the only real knock I have on it is that their ATM charges a $10 fee...that and again, the lack of full nudity, but the pay off with that is you get to drink.
Oh and as I write this review I see 5 votes for coat check?? What the frak?? I asked them if there was one and was told no!
Came here for lunchbox Friday on one of the hottest days of the year in one of the few cities where local businesses don't have to have A.C. Um, yeah... It was hotter than a stripper's butt crack in there.
Food wise. Nothing to go out of your way for. Some fried chicken, some fried cheese and some cut fruit. No drink specials.
And just like almost every other regular strip club in the world, this interior of this place was just tacky.
It was so hot that the dancers were hardly dancing. Their dancing was more like slow movements with fast hand-fanning movements. But since it was so hot in there, I kinda wished I were a scantily clad as the strippers.
I might be back. Not for Lunchbox Friday's though. No thanks.
Gold Club, is a great environment for adult entertainment. The establishment is managed, the location is great for SF, Gold Club has a great food menu and of course they have the best selection of women in SF. So if you are looking for a fun a place with great management, great location, great food, and of course beautiful women! Gold Club should be your number 1 spot.
[ 3.8 stars -- review of Friday Free Buffet only]
I dedicate this review to Ligaya T., who impressed upon me the unforgettable statistic of "50¢ a titty," alluding to the number of breasts she saw during her lunch hour visit to Gold Club's Free Friday Buffet. (While the buffet is free, you still have to pay $5 cover to enter the club, hence the math.) As I'd never been to a strip club before, I wanted to see what all the fuss was about for myself. More importantly, I heard the buffet's fried chicken was awesome so I felt compelled to go just for that.
After much anticipation, two lady friends and I finally went for buffet lunch last Friday. A friendly doorman greeted us, checked our IDs and ushered us into darkness--it was discombobulating to move from bright sunlight into the dimly lit space. We waited in line to pay our cover, but it took a while because the cashier gave out change to everyone in singles only. Of course. :)
The place was crowded, so we took the only free table--the one next to the buffet area (under the only bright lights in the room which spotlit the food), near the booth where the strippers were chilling between sets. Sadly, by the time we arrived all that greeted us at the buffet were emptied trays speckled with crumbs of fried chicken, bits of pasta, and scraps of steamed veggies; a dubious platter of wilted salad next to an even more dubious tub of ranch dressing; a ton of unloved sweet cornbread with blueberry topping, and a yummy but also untouched fruit salad.
Initially disappointed by the dearth of food, we perked up after the staff replenished all the trays about 10 minutes after we'd done our first pass at the buffet. The piping hot chicken was a bit on the dry side, especially the breasts, but it was extra-crispy and well-seasoned so it was very decent for the price we paid. The penne with grilled portobello, crimini, chicken and bell peppers in cream sauce was also quite yummy, as were the broccoli and carrots sautéed in sesame seed oil.
While I was there for the food, it was hard to ignore the social dynamics at play around me, me being a non-employee female in the strip club. All the female staff were quite lovely, and of all the dancers, I only saw one pair of augmented breasts. One dancer looked like Six from Battlestar Galactica, another was able to shimmy up a 20-foot pole, and yet another had the whole French maid thing down pat. I liked how the dancers had different body types, exhibited their own personalities through their music choices, and exuded confidence and power on stage. Every single one of them, however, seemed to do what my friend S. called the "butt spasm thingie"... you know, that thing apple-bottomed goddesses do in most rap videos that looks like an epileptic seizure of the gluteus maximus? Yeah, that. (Note to L.T.: It breaks down to about $1.00 per butt spasm thingie, just in case you're keeping track of the economics of this buffet. ;)
One of the guys facing us and seated by the stage kept looking lasciviously over at our table and he squicked us out a bit. We expected to see more of a FiDi crowd that was there just for the food (like us), but a lot of the crowd actually seemed to go exclusively for the lap dances and stage show. I'd guess there were probably 10% female customers, 40% über-buff blue collar/guys dressed down, 30% older gents, 20% suit-and-ties on lunch. I'd go again, but I'd never go alone. As Lori said, it was "like being at a stripper picnic," which was totally spot-on.
A Great Place to hang out and enjoy some great company! The girls are great and the drinks are better! Go on Friday for a Great Buffet!
The most gorgeous women in the Bay Area!! Take it from $tyles
I have a fear of strippers. I can watch. I will tip. I will sit near the back and spend my money at the bar but the minute I have to interact with them I lose my cool. I immediately feel like a perv and turn into some crazy guilty feminist. Several of my fellow Yelpers will attest to this as a group of us headed to Gold Club's Anniversary Party last night.
My prior experiences at Gold Club have been pretty run of the mill. Some ( o Y o ) & drinks but nothing special until last night.
+ The food was great. A little cold but then again I got to eat food and look at ( o Y o ).
+ The drinks were free and the bartenders were fast and friendly..and I got to drink and look at ( o Y o )
+ This one stripper did the most amazing thing I have ever seen. She climbed up to the top of the pole and slid down head first super fast stopping herself with just her thighs INCHES before she hit the ground. It was better than any acrobatic Circus Ola stuff I have ever seen, mostly because I got to look at ( o Y o ) while she did it. She had great ( o Y o ) too!
+ A stripper came by Eric W while she was collecting her $1s and told him "I like your hair" (http://i26.tinypic.com...). I laughed so hard I cried.... ( o Y o )
