Strip clubs in Dublin: our 3 addresses in the city centre
Lap dancing clubs between Grafton Street, Temple Bar and St Stephen's Green: our 3 strip clubs in Dublin, how a night works and the house rules to know.
Dublin's strip clubs are all in the city centre, within walking distance of each other, which makes them easy to fit into a night out. They are popular with stag parties and groups of friends. Our map shows 3 clubs. Here is what each offers, and the rules worth knowing before you go.
The Barclay Club
On South William Street, in the shopping quarter between Grafton Street and George's Street, The Barclay Club has a bar, cosy lounges and VIP suites with their own bar, stage and sound system. It welcomes nights out with friends, stag parties and corporate groups.
Club Lapello
On Dame Street, a short walk from Temple Bar, Club Lapello is a lap dancing club on two floors, with a central stage, a full bar and private areas. It mostly hosts stag parties and group nights out.
Angels Lapdancing Club
On Lower Leeson Street, a short walk from St Stephen's Green, Angels has been fully refurbished and offers a stage show, a VIP area and several private suites.
How a night works
- Entry: depending on the club and the night, there may be an entry fee or a package. Check the club's website before you go.
- The stage show runs through the night. You can sit at the bar and watch.
- Private dances happen in booths or suites, under the club's rules, which are explained before the dance starts.
- Groups should book ahead, especially on Fridays and Saturdays. Most clubs offer stag packages.
House rules and respect
- No touching unless the dancer invites it.
- No photos or videos anywhere in the club.
- "No" means no, whatever the time of night.
- Dress codes apply: smart casual is a safe choice, and sportswear can be refused.
- Tipping is part of the culture, but never compulsory.
- Bring ID: door staff check age.
Which club for which night?
- For a group that wants its own space: the VIP suites at The Barclay Club.
- For a night around Temple Bar: Club Lapello on Dame Street.
- For a quieter stage show near the Green: Angels on Lower Leeson Street.
