I went to STAG on a bad date 3 months ago, my first time in one of these joints and it was the worst night of life. Please, don't go here. There are better more welcoming places. No class, mean girl vibes.
Went to this club because it was listed as "a great place for first timers" and my friends had never been to a strip club before. After cheering on several of the dancers, my friend pulled out her phone to take a picture (without knowing that was not an okay thing to do). She was immediately verbally assaulted by one of the other dancers screaming to delete the picture, which while understandable, did not have to be escalated to that point. After deleting the picture from her phone, he continued to scream at her about deleting from her trash folder (which she didn't know how to access on her phone).After several minutes of verbally berating her (and the rest of our group for trying to help explain the situation), the dancer physically assaulted another member of our party by putting his hand in her face and physically shoving her away.I completely understand the importance of protecting those boys, but physical and verbal assault to a group of first timers is not acceptable under any circumstances.
Wow!!This place is a gem!! Flew out here to celebrate a friend’s birthday and had an amazing time. The place was decorated beautifully and the dancers super friendly and talented. Whoever the dancer in glasses is has some serious pole skills sorry I forgot your name. Portland is a beautiful city and wish I had more time to venture outside of the area. Next time though!!
First time here. Me and my friend are the first ones here. We ask if there are any reserved seating. The bartender says no, you can sit anywhere. We order drinks, sit down. Then the bar kinda fills up. No seats left. Then the bartender comes over and tells us it seats were reserved and tells us we have to move. And takes it drinks. So now we have no seat and no drinks.
The criticism of this bar is ridiculous. This is the best gay strip bar in Portland. The dancers are all very unique and have great personalities. Yeah the drinks are a little more pricey but if you can’t afford to tip the strippers and enjoy a nice drink... then why are you going out in the first place. Worst part is probably the customers being all white old navy catalog models would like to see more of a variety of customers of all races and gender identity.
Good quiet place over all the rest. Great environment and the old staff from Scandals is now here!! Love it!
Go go boys everywhere make sure you bring your mask and your vac card friendly bartenders little bit pricey
Had a great time, very sexy gay go go dancers I love. ❤️??
Cons: As an actual Southerner born and bred, trans, a woman of color, and technology a newcomer, I have gotten the unwelcoming treatment by its “regulars,” especially by the drag performers. I felt the moment as I walked into their establishment and try to introduce myself just to be friendly but what I get? Very cliquish, snobbish, territorial, entitled narcissistic intimidating vibes. Hardly any one made at the time made me feel welcomed and apart of their their crowd. I was deeply hurt, saddened, and felt like outcast of my community it really damaged my self esteem during my visits.Pros: Bartenders were super friendly and understandingThe Verdict: I don’t see myself coming back there anytime soon where I’m not welcome :(
Well gosh.. a Stag dancer and his friend physically assaulted me tonight. The manager, security and door person of the bar did NOTHING to stop the assault... As a matter of fact, they stood on the sidelines.. I wish I could say this was a one off for this bar. You should be ashamed of what you watched happened...ashamed.
