Dancers if you are looking for the safest place to work this is it. Management is kind and understanding, you feel safe with the staff and they are quick to respond if you need help! Clean environment and new dancer friendly with lots of nice people to help you along the way! Favorite club I’ve worked at in Rochester! You won’t be disappointed!

I went there and one of the dancers was flexing about screwing the manager and flexed it to the other dancers as well definitely not a good look I think their name was toys? Either way disgusting behavior focusing on that instead of the job at hand I didn’t need to hear about that while having fun with my friends there absolutely disgusting never coming there again…

Best spot to get drunk and show off. Lovely ladies kept me company all night! Bartenders were fast paced and friendly. This is the greatest experience in a club I’ve had all year.

I came in at midnight on a Saturday night. Dancers are friendly and beautiful, but they dont even take their tops off. Bar also stops serving before 1. Probably wont be back.

Beautiful place n girls but vip wasnt worth. me and the girls went and all it is just a couch. Only 150 for a couch but prices for the dances are good. 25$ 4 mins 50$ 8 mins 80$ 15 mins 135$ for half a hour and 225$ for 1 hour. if it was better explained and the girls do what they are supposed to do will be more worth but only go if u want to spend money if not mainly use u until ur broke.

The dancers are disrespectful, and give no attention. There has been multiple occasions id ask to buy them a drink or talk, and get a dance and they ignore me just walking past me. Merely, to talk to someone else or sit alone.

Been coming here over the last 5 years. Always a great time! Staff is always nice. That goes with having respect and being nice to them, haha. Bartenders are very accommodating. Highly recommend if you’re in the area.

I went there for the first time in a long time. The setup and atmosphere are nicer than they used to be. Some of the dancers are also attractive. I baught one drink and put it on a credit card with a male bartender. When I went to close my tab the bartender asked me how many drinks I had (which had he run my card he should have known). I responded I was pretty sure I had 1 beer. He then challenged me and became argumentative and said he had me on camera at least getting a few drinks (which if that was the case then why ask me how many drinks I had to begin with?). He was practically yelling at me and kept telling me he was going to check the cameras. I told him go ahead. He went in the back for maybe a minute (how does someone check an hour of footage in 60 seconds?). He handed me my bill for 8 dollars (the one beer) And was silent. I didnt get an apology or an explanation. I asked if he was going to say anything and he told me to sign the slip and dont come back. I wasnt really comfortable signing anything from this place at that point. He came around the bar and basically physically threatened me and told me to sign the slip and I said no. He then slapped the slips off the bar and had security remove me. If you want bartenders that will try to steal from you (mind you after youve spend a ton of money on their dancers and the covet to get in) this is a great place to go. Im shocked that a person like that is even able to be employed. My friend also had money snatched out of his hand by a bartender (not sure if it was the same one). And was never given change for his drink. I like to give fair reviews and consider the positive and negative aspects of places I go to but obviously being physically threatened and almost stolen from outweighs any positives this place has going for it. I would recommend staying away from this place.

Would definitely have to say this place has absolutely stepped up its game since the last time I was in there many moons ago. Just a nicer feel and atmosphere. The girls are gorgeous and friendly . . Yes. . It was a Monday so rather quiet, but Ill take that over packed any night. Bartenders were fun to chat with and just very relaxed. Kudos to the new owner and all the changes

My home away from home! I love all of the people that work there. Its always super clean and we always have a good time! I love that us women can go in without having to have a male escort with us. And I am always treated amazing by all of the employees here!

A friend and I spent decent money here and honestly felt robbed. Girls dont seem to be motivated to talk to anyone. Saw their faces lit up by their phones most of the time. One girl outright refused dances even after we spent 150 on drinks and girls on stage.

Well, I was in the mood for some drinks and dancers on a snowy Thursday evening, so I braved the winter storm and made it here in one piece from about 15 miles away; I figured the weather would keep most from showing up, but I was dead wrong! Cover was reasonable ($5) and beer was comparable to a regular bar ($3-6), but while there were dancers I never saw one actually stripping on stage; I understand now that its an option, but not necessarily something that happens often on stage here. I was cool with that and was willing to take the lady who informed me of this to the back, but that was about the time that 20+ folks walked through the door and got themselves some table service; I can see all the ladies gravitating toward them, so Im giving up on this for now. Yep, Im doing this review while Im still here; I chalk up my less-than-spectacular experience here to the throng that arrived right after I did, though, I had money to spend but I cant compete with a group like that... LOLSo, got to watch a few chicks dance, had a couple of beers, and had a decent time; I kinda wish I could have gotten a private dance or two, but the storms still going and I gotta make it back to base camp. I hope I get a chance to revisit this place some other time, but until then I cant award this place the full 5 stars.

The Barrel is absolutely the number one place in Rochester for Adult fun. Would highly recommend. Great drink prices, amazing talent, great staff.

You’d think the girls working would actually want to make money but unfortunately not. Instead more of wanting people there to just hand them money for nothing. There are better places to go even if you have to drive farther it would be worth it lol. Only reason i gave 2 stars was for the girl behind the bar she was awesome.

Place looks like its reasonably well set up. Drinks are ok, Some decently cute girls but the y use pasties/tape. A dance was 25 when I went went. Girls spend alot of time in the back/sitting off to the side by themselves and dont really hound for dances.

Review №23

Me and my fiance went and they wouldnt let us in because there is now a rule that woman have to have a male escort. EACH woman has to have a male escort. So we came back with a male escort and they still wouldnt let us in but they let in a pregnant woman. We were discriminated against for being lesbian woman that wanted to go out and have a good time at a strip club. I wont be going back there again even if I have a male escort.

Website says closes at 2am! Its 1am. Guy comes to the door and says they are closed and I said its not 2 and he says we close at 1 and they are practicing. Yea I believe that. If you have a Website maybe you should keep up with it so customers dont waste their time.

Came in with my girlfriend the bouncer was being rude af thinking hes something big. (Stop trying to compensate for something.) It was our first time we asked a simple question my girlfriend was so disgusted by his response she just said lets go walked right out never coming back plenty of places that are inviting not this one. Felt Very discriminated on thats for sure.

Would be a complete 5 stars but the security. Omg. Not that serious. Far as everything else. Perfect. Definitely recommend this club. Top of Rochester. The owner definitely put time and effort in this place. The drinks are great. Especially the ipa’s. Come check em out.

Review №27

Rip off, have the dancer a 20 bill and she says thanks and walked away. I was shocked, iv never seen such a thing in my life. I spend a decent amount at these clubs and have decided Rochester clubs are a waste and wouldnt recommend any of them. The barrel was my go to place but it feels like once they get you in the door they no longer care if you are entertained. This is not the first time with this place either. 5 months ago my dance lasted no longer than 30 seconds. She told me song was over but we started in the middle of a song... upset

I like the girls and the atmosphere, but the only complaints I have about the place is that it is not bigger and the girls cant show their nipples, but nevertheless its a great place to go if you want to have time for yourself.
