Additional Information
Been visiting this club fairly regularly for the past few years. I prefer the afternoons, especially Saturdays, with the occasional weekday thrown in. This club is always dependable in terms of meeting my expectations - extremely hot girls, friendly management, and high prices. The dance prices are high for nights ($31 days, $41 nights) and although I've heard others say that the mileage here was unremarkable, I have always been happy with the contact that I receive. With the economy in the shitter, it's no wonder that there are more girls here than ever, and the hustle is getting a bit more aggressive. But with that hustle also comes a bit more mileage, at least depending on the girl you pick. They have just revamped the parking lot, and also unfortunately removed the outdoor patio area that you used to be able to sneak out to for a smoke or to use your cellphone. The interior of the club remains upscale, although it's definitely beginning to show its age. Another bonus with this club (and the Jet Strip too) - you can get in free with your work badge. Sweeeet!!

I visited this club as I was in LA for business and staying near LAX. It was the first club I've ever been to in California (the second was the Spearmint Rhino LA) and I felt it was ok, but nothing special. So far I've been a bit disappointed with the clubs here in LA - maybe I'm going to the wrong ones or getting the wrong dancers, or maybe my expectations are a bit high. But so far the ones I've been to in Massachusetts and Providence have been better, and I certainly didn't expect that. Anyway, on to the review. Positives first: PROS: - the club decor and layout is quite nice, the premises are clean and upscale - the toilets are clean - the bar staff was attentive (though one waitress was obviously an airhead - I waited 15mins for a Red Bull before I got tired of it and decided to get it myself. She didn't even have the decency to apologise!) - the dancer quality was very good - great bodies and beautiful faces (7-8s up to a few 9s) - girls were reasonably relaxed and didn't push for dances or pout if turned down (with one exception) - lap dances were in a reasonably private curtained-off booth CONS: - the club was a bit dark. If you sat on stage the spot lights tended to dazzle you when they hit your eyes - mileage was a bit on the light side (not a huge problem for me but might be for others) - no nude lapdances, only topless - no alcohol (I realise this isn't their fault, but it's still a negative for me, I like having a beer while I'm at the club) - VIP prices were a bit on the high side for topless (3 songs for $100) and you didn't really get much for it (mileage wasn't as big a deal for me as I'm a visual person, but the lack of nude dances was an issue) - the private booths were FREEZING - the airconditioning was turned up very high. I suppose on the plus side it made the dancer's nipples hard, but it must have been difficult for her I felt that the best way to have fun here was just to sit at the tipping rail, tip for attention, and enjoy the stage show, rather than get lap dances.

I have read mixed reviews about the Bare, more warnings than praises, but I succumbed to temptation and decided to see for myself. The Bare has the best club layout that I have seen in Southern California. Spacious but not too spread out, and elegant but not pretentious. The upstairs "balcony" adds a nice touch. The different stages are well designed and provide a nice variety. Unfortunately, this nice real estate hosts a mediocre strip club. I am not impressed by the dancer lineup. There was exactly one stunner that I saw, and she spent all the time after her stage set at a table with two guys without doing any dances. The rest of the girls glow in the dark :) - they look like stunner material when you can't really see them (which happens in most areas of the club), and the minute they pass through a bright spot, the bubble is badly burst. Speaking of lighting, the round stage has fairly constant but dim lighting. The main stage has moving spot lights, and it is a roll of the dice whether the lights will be on the dancer when she is in front of you. Without those spot lights, the main stage is even darker than the round stage. Also, like in the VB, the spot lights periodically hit the tip rail customers in the eye. The lap mileage is on the low side. Given the prices, it is on the VERY low side. I spent more than two hours in the club and did not notice a single customer going with a girl for a dance except at the 2-for-1 specials, which happened 3 times while I was there. This is the second club I visit this month that is considered upscale (4 Play is the other), and I got the same impression: Where is the beef? Both clubs are low-mileage. Both have average dancer lineups. It seems to me that the e-word of mouth :) has led to fewer uninitiated PL's who are attracted by the upscale facade then find out 300 dollars later that they have been had. I have no other explanation for why there are fewer stunners here and more stunners elsewhere. Top dancers follow the money trail.

BE is not the place for high mileage laps, but there were quite a few sweet wholesome girl-next-door types. Honorable mentions Dani,tall 6'1" brunette b-cups, legs for days, model quality looks Monroe, 5'5" blonde with glasses from LA Margo, 5'7" blonde CCL but with enough curves in the right places. Sweetest one out of the bunch :-*

I've been to this club a couple times during weekday afternoon/night. I think the club atmosphere and setup here is great. Really relaxed. Two big televisions playing sports, a great menu (had a excellent steak sandwich), a bathroom attendent guy (might be annoying to some people for some reason but I think it's cool), ice cubes in the urinals (ooh classy), and a huge open patio area with grass you could run around barefoot in if you wanted. I believe dances are $20. They're bikini/clothed lap dances on couches in curtained boothes. Then there's a separate topless VIP area with the same curtained boothes, $90 for 3 dances. Don't quote me on those prices though. Dances were good, not off the charts for you mileage hounds out there but I found them enjoyable nonetheless.
