The Furnace

Went Monday night and started off extremely horrible with the girl at the front door. Very rude and mouthy!!!! Once in had a fantastic time!!! Drinks were great food was good and girls were excellent!!! Will be back again but hope the cashier in front is replaced she was horrible!!!!

First time ever going to a strip club and it was awesome. Music wasn’t great with maybe one or two exceptions but getting a lap dance from the dancer “stacy” really made up for it. She was really cool and friendly and damn good at her job too. Will definitely go again in the future.

Crazy how they don’t hire girls under 21. Most men want to see a younger woman in the club. The girls are not cute and is rude. In the state of Alabama girls 18+ Can dance. Yall rule is stupid. I’ve been to better Clubs like Sammys, and some in ATL

Very disappointedNot what it used to be, food, drinks, service, and dancers are Mediocre and way too over price. I remember a time when it was uncommon to see the same dancers with in a couple hour stretch and last night it was with in the same hour. The music was off as well. I will check back at a later time and update this review if the experience is different. ( The quality just wasn’t there )

I got a Lap dance from khaleesi. She was so nice but all the girls hated her. Great experience with her but over all I find the furnace to be over priced and rude after that night. I was shocked.

First time there and was a little disappointed. Ive heard nothing but good things from people about this place, but the experience for me was totally different. I had a lady with an attitude sit down beside me, and her attitude completely changed when she got a few drinks in her. She started getting real mouthy and rude. She had the nerve to call me cheap because I wasnt spending $800 on her!!!! Id already spent well over $200 before she started the attitude change. I dont know if Ill be back or not honestly. The girls name was Valentina. If you come across her, run....

Stupid rulesThey allow ugly shorts for guys but they dont allow track pant with decent look.And the club is ugly and nasty too...

All around fairly good experience. The staff was pleasant and the lady bartender up in VIP was very nice. There were multiples of beautiful women. This is definitely one club that I have went to that had some gorgeous women dancers in it. Not only that, but the level of dancing was quite professional and choreographed for entertainment.I did go on a Saturday night. So it was very busy.However I did not receive the level of attention that I thought that I should have received. In the time spent there I was only checked in on once by a waitress when I wasn’t at the bar. When I wasn’t at the bar, I would walk around or stand by the balcony on the top floor of the VIP section. I also sat in particular seating around the VIP area.I don’t particularly like places that are too pushy, but I would have liked to be approached at least a couple times.I arrived at around 11 o’clock and didn’t leave until 3:30 AM.I came with $1200 cash planning on getting VIP treatment. Immediately upon entering as a VIP, I got $400 in singles. I stayed in VIP upstairs over 4 hours. I had nachos (they were good) and drink Sprite all night, no alcohol, and left with more than $1000, which should not have happened.The level of attention I received quite possibly is my fault for not being more direct in showing interest to the dancers. I will definitely go back, and when doing so, show more personal interest in one on one dances.

Foxxy was amazing very beautiful and talented. Would definitely stop by if you have the chance.

Paid $30 dollars on a Monday for me and my date to get in and the kitchen closes at 10:30 . We arrived at 9:45 , nobody would take our order ! I wish I could zero star this place .

Good club, good atmosphere!! The bartender (mendy) I think was her name m!! She was awesome!! She lets us know the ends and outs!! She also introduces us to girls that were lovely. Autumn and I think Chanel they were also very attentive and had a great time with them. Will definitely go back to hang with the bartender and dancers l. Had a great time!! Make sure you have the pleasure of sitting with mendy and getting a few dance from autumn and chanel!!

Always a great experience!Make sure you try any item from the Menu, you wont be disappointed!! VIP is good but I feel like all the action is on the lower level for me!!Love the atmosphere and I ALWAYS ENJOY MYSELF!

Came from out of town consumed like 300 In drinks. And dancers and I was kicked out for catching attention non purpose !! definitely lawsuit discrimination against I called to see what was the the REASON I WAS kicked our for??security couldnt give me valid reason I would appreciate it if the owner reached out ! I spoke to Jeff but was definitely being jerk on the phone

I had a great time and had nothing but exceptional attention by all the ladies.....met a few ladies in the VIP room and would recommend this place 100%..... Yasmin is my favorite and worth every dollar spent.

Girls night happy hour here was much better than expected! You gotta show your drivers liscense and sign a membership card with your personal details to satisfy the ABC board requirements though so everyone be ready. Establishment was super comfortable and classy. The manager was a sweetie and really knows his stuff.Bartender gal was very generous with the servings and the dancers were HOT for 4:30 in the afternoon. DJ was on fire so dont forget to tip em if you like the rotation. Best part was the dancers werent stuck up or pushy. Keep tippin! We loved that. Happy Hour here ROCKS!

Im down here for work and the guys told me about the food here. So I went had a delicious steak dinner with ba ked potato and salad. And all the girls are gorgeous and very easy to talk to. Very clean and safe place to relax and enjoy the company.

The Mouse’s Ear in Tennessee charged $80 for 15 min VIP’s; they’re charging $200 for that at furnace. $50 for the room for 15 min, $100 for the room for 30 min, although it’s the same room. Dont Let the girl go to the bathroom either; you won’t get that time back.

Very nice place to dress up and hang out. All the staff is friendly, and the only time i see people complaining about this club is if they had been told to leave for the night for breaking the clubs simple rules. Between the people at the front door and the signs at the front of the building stating the simple (common sense) rules, you would think anyone could follow them. All ways a great time when you behave in this club.

They literally pulled me to the side b/c I wouldn’t tip the bartenders even when my friends bought ME drinks, I never once used my own card to buy drinks. Had someone pull me to the side and said the bartenders worked on tips but when I told him I didn’t use my own card to pay he said that if I didn’t give the bartenders money that I had to leave. Then when I lost my wallet I asked my friends to help me look and then noticed they bartender heard me and they threw my wallet at me and when I thanked them they said that I owed them money bc I had lost my wallet, and that I owed them for the drinks I had but again I didn’t pay so how am I supposed to tip on something that I NEVER paid for it. Why have someone THREATEN me to leave when I and the other workers tell me that I was hyping them up and then when I got my wallet back I noticed they had taken my money from my wallet whenever I never used my card to pay. I’m literally the last person to ever start a confrontation. But for someone to say the bartenders were saying I was rude and mean to them is the worst lie you could ever say. I’m not even from here and my friends were trying to celebrate my birthday for me but these people are awful. Some of the dancers were great but the management is terrible. I was told to not record when I was looking at a picture of myself. I’m a gay man. I would not record these girls. I literally threw money at them but apparently that’s not enough, never coming back here again and I feel bad for the people that do work here. These people really don’t know how to treat their customers.

Me and my brother had a great time but like someone said earlier the girls are a bit conservative and when we did finally get a dance they started on a song already almost over so we only got a quarter of our moneys worth. Overall tho its a very fun place to be I would recommend u bring plenty of money because if u dont your not gonna get much of an experience. Girls are very pretty compared to some clubs Ive seen and like I said if u bring plenty of money and a good attitude more than likely have a great time. Ill definitely be back and would recommend it if u want a bit more upscale experience.

Had a great time.Be sure to say hi to and tip Athena, Paris, and Bianca, they are awesome entertainers and incredible women.To be fair, everyone I met who works there seems kind, all have their own charm, and can bee good company.Nice place to go if you are looking for something like it.

The last time I was in there was some years back, so my review is based on that time. I was a regular there from 2007-2009. It was awesome when I first started going. Never really had issues. However, by late 2009, the environment there had gotten (for lack of a better word) cutthroat. The girls were downright ruthless and extremely aggressive and would rip you off in a split second. I went into VIP one night and spent more than $4,000. Now part of that was on me. I did agree to go to VIP and even had the inclination to spend some serious money. But NOT $4,000 worth. The girls that I was in there with got me SO drunk, I could not think straight. That was years ago, and to this day, I could not tell you how many hours I was in VIP that night. But, in all fairness, that was then, and this is now. I want to take the time to applaud Jeff, the new manager at The Furnace. Although I was long gone years before Jeff became the manager, and thus have never met him, I do hear good things and I am happy to see him respond to reviews. Who else would do that? Not any of the past managers of The Furnace, that is for certain.It seems as if The Furnace has been getting cleaned up. The cutthroat environment of 2008-2009 appears to be a thing of the past. Kudos to the new management. Years back, I would have advised anyone asking me about the place not to venture there. But, now, I say go and have a blast! It has changed for the better.

Normally I dont like a club that is hard on the up sell but Ive never been to one where the dancers try to avoid you. Sat at a table for three hours and only one dancer ever approached me. She was nice enough, but a little too young for me. Conversation was to far apart for me to accumulate interest. So I just bought her a drink and had her tip for me. I had few hundred on the table in singles. After letting her hand out about half, I noticed not a single dancer ever came to thank me.First two drinks started out quick enough, waitress forgot about me for the next hour. Way disappointed there.Yeah, polar opposite of overly aggressive dancer is terribly snobbish. Could have had a better night just hanging at home in comparison. Place was better when Peanut was still around. R.I.P. Nut.

Awesome night. Looks like a top shelf gentlemans club in Vegas. Food was really really good, had a steak and nachos, even the grilled vegetables tasted fresh. It was the dancer Rubys birthday and we really enjoyed getting to know her. Everyone from the bouncers to the restroom attendant were really professional.

I’ve been to more than a few strip clubs in my life. The Furnace is, hands down, the nicest, classiest strip club I’ve ever been to . Great service. Great food. Incredibly beautiful girls. So much fun.

Went here a few years ago a few times with a sugar daddy and loved it, I went for the experience and my first time being at a strip club, the girls and owner were nice and welcoming.

I went here the other night and couldn’t believe how I was treated. It’s been forever scene I have been. One we were charged for drinks for a girl that did sit with us. Second I was told buy several girls that fat old guys shouldn’t be allowed to be in there. Two girls said I better have more than a doller to tip. Another thew the five I had just tipped her back at me and said you kneed this more than I do. I went one more round and found a girl that was attractive and went to ask her for a lap dance she said no and that i exceed the weight limit

Was with a group “everyone over 33 except for whose bday it was she turned 32” gave one of the group extremely hard time over his ID for bein worn out even though it scanned and and he had several other ids just expired or not official drivers license anyway once we got in ride staff not many girls expensive drinks and hate to say it but girls pretty raunchy

Well have not been here in a long time, now I remember why. Some attractive and cute dancers. If they could stay off of their phones with their significant others then maybe they could make some money instead of complain about how dead it is. Lol In the last year or so this place has gone down dramatically. .

This is the best GENTLEMANS CLUB Ive been to. It will spoil you and you will compare every other establishment to this one. I stress Gentlemans Club because this isnt the cinder block / trailer park shake joint to show your rear end at. You dont tip dollars here. Sit back, enjoy the show and get a few dances (on actual couches, not some folding chair like youre in detention) from a lady you like. Just walk up and say could I get a dance from you?; dont be shy, theyll say yes. Dances average $20 a song (ymmv). Leave your friend that cant control himself at home but bring money. You can have the most affordable or expensive night of your life (Either will be a blast). Just be a gentleman and dont forget to tip the staff.

I take a lot of call, which means I am in the Birmingham Medical district a LOT. Often at very odd hours, such as the middle of the night. So in order to sleep well in my hospital cot before the next shift I typically tend to sneak on down to The Furnace.Granted I am no gentlemans club expert, I would like to say this place is CLASSY! Very nice and comfy seats, excellent bar, no smoking inside, and food! Unfortunately I have not tried the food, thats not why I mosey on down there... Hehe. The ladies! Thats why! Gorgeous if I do say so myself!The only reason I rate 3/5 is one incident that was a bit appalling. I was indeed taken in by a lovely seductress, of whom I will not name, it could have been a simple misunderstanding. However, I am fairly positive on what we agreed upon. We did not agree to run one of my cards until the maximum amount was acquired for said dance. We did not agree that it would be only a different couch upstairs and three dances..... For the price of FIVE?So in short (if you made it this far in this long winded boring tale) glorious place, glorious girls, excellent service, but keep an eye on that wallet and DO NOT USE CREDIT/DEBIT if at all possible.One star per dance! 😬

Great place to relax, drinks were good, the dj gets a 4 out of 10, and dancer SUGAR IS HANDS DOWN THE BEST IN THE CITY

I thought this was thanksgiving all over again with the roast beef smell but then the Bass Pro Shops smell came on. It was good until I smelled real fish. They need to clean the meat and her/his tongue felt like sandpaper. Those legs need to be closed because they were open like McDonalds and I almost got the fishing rods out for the lake but found out a girl named deez there.

Went on a wednesday night with friends guys and gals had a great time very relaxing and dancers were amazing much better than i expected for a wednesday lots of girls to watch everyone was friedly and fun just be sure to follow the house rules👍

I went over the weekend my first time going. The bartender was being rude she didn’t even serve us we asked for shots and she said $50 and walked off like we ain’t have the money she never came back so we left…I will never go again and we tip well but that’s her lost rudeness.

Dancers had no energy. One girl didnt even move while she was on the stage just basically stood there. The bartender didnt even know my drink that i wanted and when we finally got it it tasted horrible. The dancers went straight to topless with no teasing going on or none of that sort. Need bigger/taller poles. Girls didnt dance to music or get excited about dancing. (Thats how you make your money) I could have done a better job in the dress i was wearing.

This club charged me 2-3 times for the same one drink I purchased. I had over 8 transactions on my bank account that were pending from the 3 transactions that I actually charged myself! How a company gets away with this is beyond me! Not to mention..when I contacted the manager-Matt to ask about these transactions..I was treated like I was some low life customer! This was my 1st time at this club and I know that I will NEVER go back after this! Matt is a RUDE MANAGER who should not be in charge at that club. I cannot believe an owner would allow someone like Matt to be over their business/club. He will do nothing more than drive customers away. Mark my words on that! I will not stop at this review on letting others know about what has happened. I feel that its the customers right to know exactly what they will be put through and exactly how they will be treated by the companies employees. I would drive out of town before I would EVER go to this club in Birmingham. Take my advice everyone and go somewhere else! A lot less hassle and you wont have the issues with your bank calling you to shut your card down because so many pending charges have been placed on your card by this one business.

It is hit or miss. Bartender is horrible. I wish it was an interactive person. Forget the female... just please be having a good time. Girls are great but I did not come here for attitude.

I’ve been to this club over a dozen times . Thank You to the staff and security for being very cool. The variety of ladies was were the highlight of the night. Saturday night was Epic 🔥 Best Night I had out in a while . 💯

Not upbeat or fun at all. Almost everyone working there has a reason why they are doing this right now or they make sure you know that despite working at a place like this they are smarter/better than you. Its very apparent that they all despise you but are trying REALLY hard not to show it. The only things that can you can really accomplish here are getting completely inebriated and, of course, spending a TON of money.BTW anyone comparing this place to anywhere in Vegas has clearly never, ever, ever been to LV.

This is the best club that I have never been to. Why you ask? Because I know Grahm Jackson and he’s an aswome person. He runs that place like no other!Having been born and raised in Vegas gives me enough intel to say “Hit this place!”

The girls look good but they are to busy either eating or on their phones to interact with the customers. Been like that for over an hour. Tip when they are on the stage barely get a thank you

I loved it I felt very safe and women,one in particular where great.Ill be back.

Its a good place because my husband work there

After being wanded a third time after smoking I refused to do it again and left I understand security but when you smoke with the security guards and they still want to wand you I draw my line

Great atmosphere fast service friendly and beautiful ladies Luna and Cali with many others wanted to stay all night but alas could not hopefully that wont be the case next time this is a place that I will love to be at to the owners much respect

The entire staff made the experience incredible for our bachelor party for my now brother-in-law. I wanted my dancer! Haha. Great experience!

Excellent atmosphere,Great food, optimism In Music, Had a blast birthday blast was epic hereAccommodated me perfectly

Beautiful girls!!!! Great atmosphere and drinks. The food was great. VIP rooms, I’ll defenetly be back!

Every staff member was exceptional, drinks on point, and Daisy made our night!

The front door girl had an awesome attitude and looks better than most girls there i dont understand why she is not dancing

Would love too see the difference in Alabama girls vs California girls from the style of the way they dance look talk and hustle never been but curious

I personally haven’t been, but a few of my friends have worked here so plz support your local adult businesses during these unprecedented times!

Best gentlemans club in the state. Amazing staff great food incredible atmosphere. 10/10

The bouncer was rude and jus had a bad attitude. Didnt say merry Christmas back to me. He jus wanted to watch YouTube videos

Girls are amazing and just a awesome experience best club I’ve been to

The girls were below average! But what’s worse than that they were money hungry and unappreciative of the client. Very very disappointing night out👎

Don’t buy a girl a drink, $35 per drink then they get an attitude saying they told you how much it was when clearly they didn’t.

Great place, amazing girls the security are Terrible

Worst strip club ever apart from sammys..HORRIBLE experience..racist,prejudice,segregated for sure.this place will never get my money again

Without warning will charge for what the girls around you are drinking. Expect your check to more than double.

The staff was very nice and helpful.

Hello Gus Johnson can I be in the video? Love your vids by the way :)

Spent 900 and not one dancer came to table not even to say ty ill never be back

Great atmosphere good dancers but the DJ IS HORRIBLE WORST MUSIC EVER

Spacious, well decorated and beautiful waitresses. Have a lot of big parties in here.

Looks like a Vegas style club in the inside. I tried to become a security officer. But they wasnt hiring Jeff seem to be a good guy

My go to strip club! And Jeff the manager is awesome!

Yasmine & Nikita were amazing ✅

Best Gentlemans Club In Bama!!Ladies are exactly that!!

Love this place. Hard working and beautiful ladies. Thanks!
