Hartford, Connecticut, long known as the Insurance Capital of the World, is generally thought of as a fairly conservative area and certainly not known for debauchery and adult entertainment.
That said, Hartford, Connecticut is the capital of Connecticut and as such is home to many companies full of executives looking for after work entertainment and fun. So it is not surprising that Hartford, Connecticut has a good variety and number of strip joints.
As Hartford itself is a small city, there is not central area for gentlemen’s clubs. Instead, Hartford-area strip joints are spread out geographically and accessible generally by car. But they are not that far from downtown, nor or they far from one another.
The following is a list of the five best Hartford, Connecticut area strip joints.
Centerfolds
1861 Berlin Turnpike
Berlin, Connecticut
Centerfolds is the flagship strip joint on the Berlin Turnpike. For a while, the Berlin Turnpike became a bit too seedy, but Centerfolds has helped change that. Like most Hartford, Connecticut strip joints, Centerfolds is not over the top in terms of glitz and glamour. But Centerfolds offers a live dj, hot dancing and reasonable prices. If you are not quite in downtown Hartford or East Hartford, Centerfolds is the place to go for strip joint entertainment.
Gold Club
145 West Service Road
Hartford, Connecticut
The Gold Club is the Scores of Hartford, Connecticut. Complete with fine dining options, plasma televisions, very hot entertainers and a high end atmosphere, the Gold Club is the place to go with a client or a special occasion such as a bachelor party. Unlike most other Hartford, Connecticut area strip joints, the Gold Club is not a place to go for a beer and some laughs. Rather, Centerfolds is a night out and an experience to be remembered.
As with most high end strip joints, the Gold Club offers extras such as a VIP Club, and theme parties each month of the year. Because the Gold Club serves alcohol, it is not a fully nude club.
Gold Club Connection
145 West Service Road
Hartford, Connecticut
Located within the same building as the Gold Club, the Gold Club Connection does not serve alcohol, BUT, serves fully nude entertainers. The vibe and atmosphere are a bit more sedated than the Gold Club, but generally it is not much different, except for the fully nude and alcohol free aspects.
Kahoot’s
65 Windsor Avenue
Route 83
Vernon, Connecticut
Kahoot’s is a mid ranged strip joint and well known in the Hartford, Connecticut area. Kahoot’s offers attractive and fun entertainers and good bar type food, including chicken wings and burgers.
But let’s face it, you are probably not going to Kahoot’s for the food. The dancers are friendly and it is not a highly pressurized area. You will have fun and relax and enjoy a spirited and friendly atmosphere.
Electric Blue
62 Merrow Road
Tolland, Connecticut
“The pride of Northeastern Connecticut”, is how many describe this Hartford, Connecticut area strip joint. While residents of this area of Connecticut may not particularly relish the thought that a strip joint, no matter how good, is the calling card of their region, there’s no disputing the fact that the Electric Blue strip joint is a bit of an institution now. Somebody once said that buildings, politicians and prostitutes all become respectable with age. Well, the same could probably be said for otherwise rundown strip joints just off of interstate highways in a rural area of the state.
The Electric Blue is relaxed. It is safely out of the New York City and Boston orbit so as to not compete with either, and yet, is often the halfway stop over for those traveling from one city to the next.
The Electric Blue, though, also offers hot and friendly dancers. From a looks perspective, any of these girls could compete in most of the top New York clubs. But from an attitude perspective, they are small town and welcoming.
There is usually a small cover charge and a reasonable beer selection. There are just enough televisions to allow you to take a peek at the game, if you can tear your eyes away from the real reason you are there. Electric Blue offers a private room, without exorbitant charge, for a private and intimate dance…or dances.
Overall, Hartford, Connecticut offers fun and quality strip joints.
