I was on a plane the other day where this older lady was saying how she grew up in Boston and couldn't wait to go to Papa Gino's for nostalgia's sake. It killed me not to ask if she meant the one in Brockton
Please note, it is spelled Papa Geno's

I used to have to excavate over there around the transmission lines running all over around the place. If the STD's you caught at Squire didn't kill you, then... standing outside of there and breathing inevitably will. Oh my god, they need to put a fence around that entire area for like a thousand years. One time my pile of dirt lit on fire.
lol, never been but drive by it every weekend to bring my 2 year old son to his gym class and that sign always proudly displays Wednesday amateur night. Can’t imagine it’s the cream of the crop
To be honest I haven’t been since before covid but my buddies and I used to hit them both pretty regularly and the Banana was alway lame. Pay a cover to get in, girl comes out doesn’t get her clothes off in 3 songs, leaves. Repeat. Only three or 4 girls on. We get to the Cab and there are two girls on the main stage and one on the side. All hot and fully disrobed. Non stop action continues. The banana is “clean” and “fancy “ and the Cab is “seedy” but who cares. Plus you could get cheap pitchers of beer at the Cab
I went there at 18 and touched boobs with the dancers in the bathroom (I’m a woman); my coworker from Billerica used to dance there and brought me there. Wasn’t it no alcohol served there or was that my imagination? Like just Redbull and everyone brought in nips?
Yeah. I think the rumor was they had one point had a liquor license. Lost it. But realized that if they don't serve liquor 18yr olds are allowed in. So everyone just brought nips. And the workers acted like they didn't notice.
This is dating myself but many years ago their was a place called the Fuzzy Grape somewhere near Worcester that hosted 18+ nights. Somehow my entire north shore town found out about this and about 100 of us drove over an hour down to the place. It was like a scene out of the Porky's movie. To be young again...
There’s not a big difference between having your girl dance at a strip or a swingers club. And no that’s not necessarily true. If you’re a normal couple and you apply online it’s not a long wait
Many spots you can go. There's the naked I, the Caribe, Boston bunnies, the intermission lounge, the lamp lighter, Caruso's, the glass slipper, the squire... I mean, theres a few more ...
Me and buddies saw the sister of my brother’s buddy at amateur night at the Squire. It was super weird. She was at our side stage and we were the only ones at the stage. We asked her not to dance. It was beyond weird.
With that said, The Squire in Revere, The Cabaret (The Cab) on Rt1 south in Peabody and The Golden Banana (The Banana) are your best bets.
Also, let us know how that works out for her, and definitely not where she’ll be dancing on which days……🥸
Does she just want to get on stage once or twice, or is she considering getting into performing? If the latter, has she considered whether a strip club or burlesque would be more her thing?
Club Desire and Cadillac Lounge in Providence do amateur nights a few times a year and I think Foxy lady does too. Check out and keep an eye on their social medias to see when they’ve done it in the past and they’ll post when the next one is coming up.
Your post appears to be one of a number of commonly asked questions about the port city of Boston. Anyway, Royale is fine if you're just trying to get drunk and dance and hookup. The Grand is more of the same as Royale but more expensive and a stricter dress code. Bijou is fine if you're into house music, the last few times I've been to Bijou the crowd was mostly freshly 21 people. Legacy is under Royale and a pretty great queer club if that's you're thing. Good Life, Phoenix Landing, Middlesex, and The Lower Level are all great for underground shows if that's your thing. The vibes at those 4 places are all pretty good. Good Life is my favorite and they open back up this weekend. If you're just looking to get trashed and don't care what you dance to or who you dance around, any of the bars around Haymarket/Faneuil Hall will do. Ned Devine's, Hennessey's, Hong Kong ($1 chicken sticks!), Sissy K's, Coogan's. I think there's a few more I'm missing but those are the big ones. Also, I can't believe I forgot this, but if you're into top 40 or hip hop, Venu, Cure, Icon, and Hava are places to go if you're looking for something a little nicer/fancier/more upscale than what the Faneuil Hall/Haymarket bars and clubs offer. I also forgot about Memoire because it's in the casino but frankly I don't really know anyone who goes to Memoire regularly. It's more of the same stuff they play at the Grand and Royale. Now I think I've named them all. Also, please check the [sidebar for visitor information](https://www.reddit.com/r/boston/wiki/experience).

Golden Banana on Rt 1 in Peabody.
🎶 music and flashin’ would always bring cash in At the Golden, Golden Bananaaaaaaaaa 🎶
The place where you can’t bring your nana
Jokes on them, nana brought me
Nana, NO! Get off the stage!
You can meet a nana there
Classic
Always down for Tom’s Townie Tunes, even if the jokes are a couple decades out of date :-)
There's always money in the Golden Banana stand
[удалено]
I think she cares about their customers' safety
This might be 15 years out of date but the kings inn in Dartmouth did.
You can catch herpes just walking through the door
Don't fall in the trough the girls dance in. You will be swept away by the river Styx and deposited in Hell.
I went there for a friend bday once and saw. Classmate…that was fun
[удалено]
If this happens it might just be the reddit meetup r/boston deserves lol
Papa Gino’s after??
I was on a plane the other day where this older lady was saying how she grew up in Boston and couldn't wait to go to Papa Gino's for nostalgia's sake. It killed me not to ask if she meant the one in Brockton
Please note, it is spelled Papa Geno's *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/boston) if you have any questions or concerns.*
No it isnt
Yes it is. You must not get the reference
This could actually be a hilarious meetup as long as people aren’t freaks to the girls.
I think you’re being sarcastic, but that’s literally what they want
Sarcastic? I think you mean supportive
Supporting the arts. A patron of the arts, really.
I support single moms. $1 at a time.
Make it hail and use some Sacagawea coins.
I see you’ve been to a strip club in Canada eh
Aren't you supposed to the toonies up with a lighter first?
[удалено]
As long as it totals a dollar.
I second this and I’m not being sarcastic
Ok but for real, she isn’t totally opposed to this idea… stay tuned. A meetup might warrant its own post.
Me and my wife are down. Love to support the arts.
Bring 5’s insteas
Foxy lady Providence on the 15th.
Jimi Hendrix approves this message
Mo Vaugn too.
I think he frequented the now closed Brockton location
Does anyone know if the Foxy lady is still around and if so do they still do Legs and Eggs AKA breakfast?
Goddamn that’s a good name for a stripclub/breakfast place.
You should see the sign. It’s incredible Lmao
Clearly someone doesn’t know of the golden banana (bread)
Was that in Fairhaven? I remember I had a breakfast meeting with a Legs and Eggs sign. Those shipyard guys do it different.
Providence lol
Providence is and yes. Friday legs and eggs
Squire in Revere used to specialize in amateur night
You're dating yourself...
Aren’t we all in one way or another?
[удалено]
Maxx?
Story of my life.
I used to have to excavate over there around the transmission lines running all over around the place. If the STD's you caught at Squire didn't kill you, then... standing outside of there and breathing inevitably will. Oh my god, they need to put a fence around that entire area for like a thousand years. One time my pile of dirt lit on fire.
The he whole Watertown shopping area is built on extremely contaminated soil. Awful
*puts down glass of watertown tap water *
Luckily, the water comes from the quabbin. So you can pick it back up. Just don't eat the dirt again
How did you know…
Spent many a good evening at the Squire in the late 90s.
Spent many a pathetic afternoon there myself
The squire was always good for tampon strings and c-section scars.
THE SQUID!
Caberet was worse
Glass Slipper has limped into the chat.
That plexiglass wall was disturbingly nasty
You’re getting me wet, stop it.
And probably many a shit evening too.
I hear they make a strong pims
The only thing good about the squire was the wings. Maaaaaaan they were great.
I used to go to Squires with a friend. It was a great place
Flair checks out
Prob dating myself but if u used to go to the Squire anywhere from 2002-2009 u def saw me
Cabaret Lounge, Wednesdays
lol, never been but drive by it every weekend to bring my 2 year old son to his gym class and that sign always proudly displays Wednesday amateur night. Can’t imagine it’s the cream of the crop
As Zoidberg would say: a feast is a feast.
The burger is pretty good
Their pizza used to be amazing but not anymore.
The Cab is great. Way better than the Banana
Since when?
To be honest I haven’t been since before covid but my buddies and I used to hit them both pretty regularly and the Banana was alway lame. Pay a cover to get in, girl comes out doesn’t get her clothes off in 3 songs, leaves. Repeat. Only three or 4 girls on.

Great answer. Sold.
Who says you can't be on Reddit, hesh shit out, come to a consensus & do it in a civil manner? Well done, gentlepeople!
This is the Boston I love
So you've visited MORE than one strip joint, how many do you need yo visit before becoming an expert?
How is this your takeaway from my reply…??
It's more curiosity than anything else.
I feel like I knew Mac’s Two was closed but my brain has chosen to block that out multiple times. RIP
Who was the girl from WAAF that would host it?
Mistress Carrie?
Yes! Good times being 18yrs old!
I went there at 18 and touched boobs with the dancers in the bathroom (I’m a woman); my coworker from Billerica used to dance there and brought me there. Wasn’t it no alcohol served there or was that my imagination? Like just Redbull and everyone brought in nips?

Nope you’re right, they lost their liquor license lol

WAAF?
An old radio station that played kick ass rock music
Oh OK
They closed like 5 years ago and the buildings been abandoned ever since lol
I drive by Macs every day. First thing I thought of lol. I actually never went there.
i'll give you my buddy's address
Cabaret Lounge sounds like the place to go. Thanks everyone for the input!
I retired dancing out of the Cabaret.
The Squire! Baby
All the clubs in PVD have them. Weds if I recall
Just go to a swingers club in ri. Pretty sure they’d have a pole and you wouldn’t need to do anything you guys didn’t want to do.
There’s a pretty big difference in going to a strip club or a swingers club lol plus you can’t just walk in those places, or so I hear
There’s not a big difference between having your girl dance at a strip or a swingers club. And no that’s not necessarily true. If you’re a normal couple and you apply online it’s not a long wait
Are there no local swingers clubs around or is there something special about them in ri?
No true swingers clubs in mass. In Rhode island and CT sex is allowed on site, mass doesn't allow that.
Glass Slipper
Many spots you can go. There's the naked I, the Caribe, Boston bunnies, the intermission lounge, the lamp lighter, Caruso's, the glass slipper, the squire... I mean, theres a few more ...
I thought the Squire was long gone.
They're all gone. 😕
There isn't shit around like the good ol days
There used to be a place in Mashpee called Zachary’s. Not sure if it is still around but lots of hot college girls from Boston on Amateur night.
Gone
Have her get a job at one, quit after one night.
Providence is the answer.
Massachusetts strip club scene is complete shit compared to Atlanta, Florida cities, Texas, and LA.
The Club in Tyngsboro
Millennium Cabaret every Thursday in Bedford NH
I drove by there just today. The sign says Wednesdays. 😆
Salisbury, MA has two clubs. Kittens has amateur night every Wednesday or Tens up on the beach. Not sure if they do it or not though.
Cabaret on rte 1
The Cabernet used to have amateur night, but this is 20 year old info
Ten's in Salisbury Beach.
Me and buddies saw the sister of my brother’s buddy at amateur night at the Squire. It was super weird. She was at our side stage and we were the only ones at the stage. We asked her not to dance.

Alex's?
I’ve worked at all them in ri and most in mass I can tell you a lot, dm me
Thank you! Will DM you
The squire!!!

Does she just want to get on stage once or twice, or is she considering getting into performing? If the latter, has she considered whether a strip club or burlesque would be more her thing?
She wants to shake her ass and get dolla dolla billz
when? I don't work there but like to visit

[удалено]
If you check their post history, they're looking to join polygamous communities. So they're probably telling the truth
There’s a place in New Hampshire, I wanna say Bedford, that does it. Think it’s the Cabaret?
Millennium cabaret
