I have a friend that Raves about this place. So, when I recently found myself in the Atlanta area, I Googled this place. One of my concerns was the location. As of April 2017, I was pleasantly surprised and the parking space (which is across the street) was well lit and felt safe. So there, boring stuff out of the way, but I hope that helps like-minded people like myself. I showed up Thursday about 2100 and aside from a few patrons and staff the place was empty. Then 2200 roles around. The dancers appear and the chill music really takes place. The dancers this night were very attractive and 99% were smooth muscular men. I thought the full nudity took a bit to roll around, but aside from that I rather enjoyed myself. The dancers were friendly to me; reading the reviews I did not experience the rudeness mentioned in many of the reviews here. I went there solo and had fun, I even chatted with some of the local patrons, and they were very friendly too. I would go back and hopefully try for a Friday or Saturday. Now fellas, this is a strip club; bring cash and if you can a lot. For about $200, I had a fun time, I did pay for the VIP lounge: which I hung out a lot in. I did not do the private lounge, but was extremely tempted to do so (Jason). Go and have fun, I did and hope to again soon.
Don’t bother coming after midnight, dancers are over it by then and do not care anymore! I went a couple years ago a spent over a thousand dollars and was one of best experiences I’ve ever had. I went after midnight on a Saturday and spent less than a hundred and most of that was on drinks! Two stars over one because the bartenders were nice and quick to serve. If I go back it’ll be before midnight.
I will not being going back to this establishment. We went for a girls night with a big group of friends, and one of my friends got roofied. It was very scary and I would not recommend. Not sure how they did it, but she was definitely not drunk and was acting very abnormal. She was also extremely sick all night, and sadly that wasn’t the only thing. My other friend had $60 stolen. Definitely would not go again. Zero stars.
I must say that Ive been to many strip clubs in my days, however none of them involved nude men... Well none of them involved nude male employees. The club was overall very nice. Great lighting, awesome bathrooms (the fancy kind with the male servant handing you paper towels type), they had parking but I took an Uber. The performers were all good looking men many of whom werent afraid to go let it hang out and let it fly as well. What surprised me was the variety of performers there: they had all races, all ages, and a variety of types. Its neat that you didnt have to go to the VIP room to get a lap dance... They would wander the room like lost puppies and pick some random person and go to town. The bartenders were quick and friendly. I generally hair order a vodka water with lime so its not like anyone can screw that up. The drinks are priced about right: 5-10 bucks depending on the booze. You can smoke here which Im not always used to when I go to places but it was nice to light a cigar. Try it out! The worse that could happen is you black out, loose all your money, and catch something that cant be cured with a shot. Joking of course.... Or am I? Good luck!!!
Swinging Richards provides a relaxed and fun atmosphere. The staff is friendly and welcoming. The drinks are good and always greeted with a smile by the bartenders. For those who havent visited I know what you want to know, and yes the staff is attractive. The most upbeat person Ive ever met happens to be Darrell. He also is an amazing dancer. I have and will continue to revisit Swinging Richards.
Great place to enjoy very good dancers. I do wish that there was more current music played, such as the hot 100 list, that would really allow the dancers to dance appropriately to the songs. Maybe even cleaning up the policy on having women in the club everyday too.
As a female customer it was interesting. Parking is 5.00 admission was 15 and drinks about 10. Not bad for a club. Given a female strip club it would be way more. Parking attendant was rude but whatever. Drinks nice size. Now this is a strip club so yes its butt naked men and they are not afraid to get naked. Dances are $10.00. Me personally I dont want no naked man on me straddling me. Sorry. But my friend enjoyed herself. I mean its a strip club its not too complicated. Women have to wear pants and you cant go into private rooms. Overall very polite dancers they all greeted us and were nice. As a gay man customer it may be a different experience. But basically if you want to see buttnaked men this is the place.
This is no Magic Mike experience. First they charge to park in some gravel lot across the street, this means less money to give the dancers since you are giving up cash to park. Second, the dancers have great bodies but are not good looking in my opinion. My friend and I didnt stay long so we didnt get to see all the dancers, there might have been better looking ones that came out later. Third, they have a strict dress code. I was not in compliance with their dress code so they told me I had to leave and did not give me my money back, which is not cool.
The best strip club experience of my life. This place offers a fun and accepting atmosphere. If you are not 100% okay with the “strip club” atmosphere though I would think twice though but if you are okay with it then you will have an absolute blast! I will definitely be back very soon! Fun fun fun!!! And extremely hot men!!!
I had been going off and on to SR for 10 years, due to some lawsuit, the cover has been jacked up to $15 and the big $8 cocktail, which was the best deal in town, is now $12. I cant afford to go there anymore, and the quality of the dancers now doesnt warrant these high prices. This is not LA or NY. Soon the only people who will go will be the die-hards. Not much swinging there anymore. If they quit charging for parking, and went back to $5 during the week and $10 on the weekend, the crowds would flock back. Dont penalize us for the lawsuit.
I have been going to Swinging Richards for the last 5 years and my last visit was on June 2, 2018 and I was HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED! They went up on the cover charge and the drinks now are ridiculously expensive. Whenever I go I always buy the VIP wristband because I enjoy the intimate setting but they increased the charge on that as well. In VIP it used to cost 20.00 for a dance, but now they force you to buy “d*ck dollars” in order to buy a dance and there is a 4.00 charge for every “dollar” that you purchase and there is a minimum of 2. Over the years I have spent a lot of money in this place but my last visit was a let down. Something needs to change or I don’t see them staying in business much longer. They have gone from a fun place to visit to becoming a Shady Ripoff Establishment!!!
Be aware of dancer Angel. He will take you in VIP and specifically state the dance is $20 per dance. He will dance 2 min off of one songs and 2 the next and will charge you $60. I had to get management involved to get my money back. No different from dealing with pan handlers on a dark alley. Be careful when doing a private dance in this establishment
I previously heard mixed reviews, and, upon being presented with the opportunity to experience this establishment with beloved colleagues, I became excited to visit the infamous, yes infamous, Swinig Richards.The first impression was absolutely horrible. There is no valet and there are vague signs guiding parking. I accidentally parked in a VIP parking area. There were only signs stating $5 Parking, which I was happy to pay. However, the attendant walked up to me in an extremely aggressive manner demanding that I move parking spots. I told him that I was confused, but I would be happy to park in the correct area. He became more aggressive and threatened to have me removed from the premises. I, again, asked him the correct area to park so that I didnt impose on the facilit, and he pointed to the highway. Had I not been accompanying a birthday party for the said beloved colleague, I wouldve never stayed. This was a horrible first impression and terrible welcoming to the facility. I will absolutely dissuade anyone from visiting here. There are much better attractions in this beautiful city.
Came in town with my fiance and some friends for a bachelor/bachelorette party in Hotlanta and we decided to stop by this place. Drinks were reasonably priced and well made. I cant give a fair opinion on the dancers, but my friends seemed to have enjoyed them. Good times. Well be back.
Havent been since pre-COVID but, we ALWAYS have a blast. The ONLY thing I dont care for is the playlist. You cant suggest any songs and they play the same ol tunes. Hey Mr. DJ, upgrade us baby!!! Staff is very welcoming, bartenders make excellent drinks, and the atmosphere is 🔥
Great place to relax if you go earlier on weeknights to have a conversation with a fantasy friend.The guys are the best of any club in town and they can be great or greatly disappointing. My favorite is Darrell who is incredibly fit and incredibly fun to spend time with. He actually dances and does gymnastics on the stage! Been a customer for years but never wrote a review. If you want to step into a bubble of fantasy and enjoy the company of magnificent young men, this place has you covered (or uncovered) ....
Bring yo stacks! These guys work hard and take care of themselves so you can enjoy their....acrobats and what not! I, myself, am a member of the Stripper Appreciation Society and am grateful for the service they do for us. I appreciate my yearly birthday lap dance from one of the hard working young men (Im looking at you Angel!! you Cuban papacito!!!)So come in, enjoy the strong drinks, tip your bartenders and most of all tip the dancers!!Edited: Ladies, please dont ruin it for the rest of us who understand that this is NOT a Magic Mike experience. Bachelorette parties are not a good idea here--this is primarily a gay stripper club and were lucky that we can come here to enjoy it. So sit back with your money, enjoy the view and dont act an ASS!
Hot guys is not always a given at standard clubs, Swinging Richards is spot on with gorgeous men! Also, they can move and entertain with a bit more personality than the normal scene. Definitely will return and have another great night of fun and men!
I went on 1/12/2019 it was horrible 25 dollars to get in with parking. Dancers were lazy , many kept clothes on while flashing themselves occasionally definitely not the place I remember where they actually worked for the tips. Left after about an hour and saw others doing the same!
Well I went on my Bachelorette party with three other girls and a guy and we had soooo sooo soooo much fun and let me tell you, the guys were all AMAZING! I will definitely be returning! The one thing I must point out to all the ladies who intend to go there: be very aware that this is mainly a gay bar, they arent there for you. Sometimes gay guys just like to be left alone and have their own bar to themselves, so if you run into some rudeness expect it, dont act surprised. What do you expect?? seriously ladies, dont complain if you werent patronized the way you thought you should be. Its not a blight on the gay community thats overreacting. The DJ that she was talking about wasnt there when I went and this was in june 2010. The only hesitation I got was from the man at the door who tried to run us out of there telling us Clydesdales was down the street and it catered to bachelorettes, but I still had oh soo so much fun and got free lap dances...the guys will def. make it worth gettin married! lol and by the way....a lot of the dancers are strait and HOTTT.Females be forewarned:There is only one, I repeat, ONE bathroom for you in there. If you have the guts, you can boldly walk into the mens room, they didnt mind when I did it hahaOyea and one more thing:There is a strict dress code, no short shorts or short anything....no halters so try and be classy!(even tho ur in a strip club....)
If you get too drunk and scare the staff, they will hear you out for whatever cash you have in your wallet. The strippers look out for not only the clients, but also each otherVery good place.
Got conned by a stripper there. Took my partner and I into the back room for a dance and did not tell us any pricing up front. so there goes $60 plus a $5 ATM fee down the drain. thought it would be cheaper than that. Nothing but a whorehouse.
Very nice club! Lots of fun definitely worth the trip. Good dancers some better then others. Can get a bit pricy so bring some $$. Also lots of smokers. Have fun!
They allow smoking which is unfortunate. The freaking cigarette smoke is ridiculous. There is no ventilation, and my clothes smelled like a smoke stack after I left. It also irritated my sinuses. Is it a requirement to be a damn chain smoker when you go there? Make the smokers go outside!
Their website says no bachelorette parties, well that’s all there is! It’s not a gay bar anymore. It’s just a strip club for women. Don’t spend your precious $ there. Leg then go bankrupt with their fenaw clientele. Only gay guys pay $150 for private dances. The females don’t. Too bad!
I was just discriminate by two dancers just because we Latinos.Two of the dancers on stage (white guys one of them name JOEY) was laughing at us and proceeded saying that soon we wont be able to claim that wall not know that we are citizens of this country. To be honest they were the most distasteful dancers in here. 80% of the clientes was Latinos
The bartenders were nice and made good drinks. The dancers were super hot and super friendly too. I plan on visiting Atlanta, and Swinging Richards, again!
My Pike buddies and I were looking for a great place to hang out and relax- Swinging Richards fit the bill perfectly! Only four stars because the drinks could have been a little better- but the entertainment definitely gets 5!
I love SR! It is like Disney for adults.... My favorite so far is Jonathan, perfect body, tall, handsome..the whole package....Drinks are strong....I always have a really good time @ SR!
Corey was a generous bartender and catered to us. He made great drinks! This was our first time to Swinging Richards and although it was late the guys showed us a great time.
I havnt been here yet ( not really interested in guys or snooty uptitty females who have to explain how to properly tip a bartender- type of dancer)..If they are working for tips only, then I would suggest anywhere from 50%-75% gratituty of whatever the listed drink price is( however, theyre should be some wiggle room with this) depending on your type of drink and the realtionship.But, If he is taking off his pants for you, then yes ALOT generioustly is expected..otherwise get in and get out as quickly as possible..
The guys that we met were super sweet and took care of my friend and I. The atmosphere was incredible and the place was cool. We absolutely enjoyed it and we will come back!!
I have been going to this club for years i have always enjoyed the dancers and the people who keep this business flowing smoothly..i love these people and appreciate the effort they put into being the best entertainment on this coast!
Not EVEN a gay bar anymore. Way TOO MANY females ogling the dancers, and they shouldn’t be allowed. Try going to a Chippendales-like bar as a male and they don’t let you in. Double standard maybe.
I really love everything there the men was so amazing,sexy,and very friendly lol I think Im in love with a stripper but if in Atlanta its a must see place to go.
As a Lyft driver, Ive dropped off and picked up countless men and women at the front door of this establishment and Ive never heard a bad word about it. People go for a good time and this place obviously delivers.
It was a nice with hot guys but not really sexy, I wanted one guy but he didnt seem to know what he wanted...the club was very ok, Id love to go there again
THEY ALLOW SMOKING INSIDE. They advertise as all nude but you have to tip a lot for it to be true. The parking lot guard is super rude
Worst night club I’ve ever been toI was scammed out of money I spoke to the manager and the manager refused to give me my money back or did not offer me drinks for my inconvenience I will never go to this night club againThis is a racist night club I am also filing a complaint with the Better Business BureauI paid $15 to get into the club which is fine I also paid another $15 to get into the VIP room which is fine but this is where the problem begins I paid two dancers $20 each I didn’t know that you do not supposed to gi I paid $15 to get into the club which is fine I also paid another $15 to get into the VIP room which is fine but this is where the problem begins I paid two dancers $20 I did not know that the dancers do not supposed to accept cash from the customers and when The man That works at the VIP entrance explained that to me I went to speak to the manager and he refused to do anything about it
Overall a good experience, but my friend and I could tell that some of the dancers weren’t interested in darker guys like us.
I went to the club last night, and was trying to talk to the manager. The owner rudely looked at me and said, What do you want? That is NO way to treat customers!! Get some customer service skills!!
Omg my first time going was AMAZING! The dancers rocked my world. Zahfar was one of my favorites 😁
Beware of one of the strippers named Angel. He isnt honest when it comes to luring you into the VIP lounge for a private session. He also tells you aline of BS!
I was there last night and the dancers and crowd got to me so much that I actually got on stage . Thats against owner request. I apologize . Love you guys . See ya later ! 😄
The dancers are hot with nice bodies and there welcoming this is me and my partners favorite spot when we visit Atlanta.
Had a good time and the dancers were sexy and friendly for the most part.
Had a great time for my first time there. The guys were really nice and it was a good show. Will revisit next time.
So I have been there twice this weekend and I had a blast the drinks are great the staff is awesome they made me feel great in the building
Pierce is hot! Watching All Male, All Nude in England. Looks fantastic I want to go !
The best Club gay in Atlanta... but Please not smoke in the bar...all my clothes smell cigarette:-(
Dancers are mildly entertaining. Overpriced drinks. decent parking
Beware. The dancers will come dance in front on you, say they gave you a dance, and then demand money. No thanks.
I was thinking about coming this weekend until I seen the dress code, that is messed up we are not in high school anymore. I believe we are adults now.
My friend and I were roofied here. I would not recommend this place and hope no other groups of women go here.
Extremely intimidating dancers who are rude and unpleasant to be around. I dont recommend this place. the people here are very shady and extremely rude.
Dalton an bayani were beautiful and so worth the money. Please see them ♥️
The dancers will not dance long before they will want $$$$.Be careful.
It was enjoying coming here with my friend for the first time to experience a gay strip club in Atlanta
Almost every time I have asked for a lap dance the dancer agreed to give me one and then disappeared.
It’s an amazing place., but it’s turning into a straight bar. Why)
AWESOME PLACE!!!! But have your MIND & MONEY right and youll have a great time.
I had a great time the dancers where so friendly
Would be a 5 if they didnt allow smoking. Super fun.
Great time. Ill visit everytime just to see ZULU!!!
Clip joint. smoking allowed. rude staff. bachelorette parties.
These bar is amazing make me hot so bad!!!
Men here are like dolls they just dance
Had a great night. Money well spent
Good drinks and great dancers!
Best place to go if you’re visiting ATL
A good place to go empty your wallet.
