Hi there,
I have been a lurker for a while now and I have been thinking about starting up a club. Dancing just became legal here and no one has opened a club as of yet, so I thought I might try to get a head start.
I am going for a medium class club. I am trying to attract the construction workers in my area because there are a lot, they get paid well, and they are not going to be going anywhere anytime soon. I would try to go with a laid back theme (obviously) that is similar to the Earls restaurant franchise or a toned down Moxies. These places are Canadian and I am unsure of the American equivalent, but they are relativity nice places with decent food. Here are some pictures to get an idea, my place wouldn't be as upscale, because I think these places are pretty fancy, but something similar.

I wanted to ask you guys a couple questions about things you would like to see in a club, how it runs, etc.
Keep in mind the ladies can not be fully nude, which means no exposed nipples.
So, here it goes!
1. Do clubs usually serve food and if so, do people order or do they find it awkward?
2. I was thinking about a 5 item menu with delicious appetizer like things such as; Peel and eat shrimp(wings of the sea), wings, pork tacos, and something else in this field. Would this appeal to customers or would it be awkward?
3. Are there waitresses that take care of all the customers drinks for the night? (The customers that sit at tables)
4. Do clubs usually have wine menus?
5. Do clubs have those tiny flip book menus of all of their cocktails?
6. Cloth or paper napkins? (I'm thinking cloth because it is cheaper, but is it too fancy?)
7. What kind of uniform would a waitress wear?
8. Should the bar be able to serve margaritas and other things "exotic" like that?
9. Should lap dance rooms have poles? What are these rooms called? I don't think touching as allowed, I am looking into it.
10. Should a middle class place have a champagne room? What exactly is a champagne room?
I think these are all the questions I have for now, I am specifically worried about the food issue, because I would really love to serve food, but I don't want people to be put off by it because it is from a "stripclub". Though I have heard that there are many successful places that do serve food. I am NOT talking about an all you can eat buffet, this food would be made to order and fresh![]()

Fancy drinks don't matter and may not sell. Dudes go in and drink beer. They drink shots. The odd customer will come in for a glass of chardonnay or martini but generally it's beer, shots, or mixed drinks (jock/coke, vodka/redbull etc)
