Many women don’t enjoy strip clubs. This can be an issue for guys who enjoy seeing their girlfriend face-to-chest with another woman’s boobs. In this perverted dilemma, the answer is Jumbo’s Clown Room, an intimate venue that for more than four decades has allowed its female employees to call themselves “dancers” without patrons rolling our eyes behind their backs. These talented and seductive — but non-nude — dancers attack the on-stage pole with attitude more akin to grrrl-power rock stars than plastic Hollywood hustlers. Strip club naysayers may say female dancers don’t look “real” and project an unattainable sexual fantasy. But not at Jumbo’s. Here the girls embrace and flaunt their individuality. Female patrons are attracted to the dancers’ down-to-earth sexual empowerment and male customers are hooked because their punk-rock, girl-next-door beauty makes us think we could actually get them (we can’t). In truth, Jumbo’s is less a strip club than a risqué dive bar. It’s a locals-only bikini joint for hipsters, bikers, off-duty celebrities, couples, co-workers and, most of all, chicks. And since the music the dancers perform to is straight out of your record collection and not Kid Rock’s greatest hits, your girlfriend won’t even notice how hard you’re staring at other women because she’s doing it, too. 5153 Hollywood Blvd., Hlywd.

When we got to this place served us very well the valet parking. were still undecided going into this place. By bad reviews or bad experiences that others had told us and that is also whispered in the HARVARD & STONE bar this place was not very good and had some strippers who always got in trouble for costumers. But a tall white a bit chubby served us very well with a smile. After a while of being in Jumbo few of my friends wanted to smoke so we all went out to talk and the fat white boy greeted us politely and we greet each other very well. He also said they were two-drink minimum and to give tips to strippers. But we was afraid that some of the strippers we got into trouble. For everything bad that many people talk bad about this place.There's always some security BRUNO then always charges for get in and do not wait in line or let people in without ID.And also as a PRICILLA always gets angry and says FUCK YOU and she always says BAD WORDS when she is on the stage to costumers only because they do not give tips. But there are strippers that happens the same and do not act as PRICILLA. Feared to meet these people here and it seems the two are Hispanic, but do not treat customers well. Or would they both have some relation between them and as they plan how to treat customers. We found PRICILLA only that night and we did not think was gonna make a good night. But we drink and many of the strippers did a good show and always change their clothes to make a good entertaining show and put tips on them. But whenever PRICILLA took the stage never did a good pole dance ALWAYS with the same clothes never change her outfit. And not even to say thank you to any of my friends who gave him tips. It was time she approached us and asked us to buy her a drink and we did but we gave it to her. She grabbed the drink and went to another customer and neither gave thanks. We decided not to give tips the rest of the night and there was a time when she get started to dance but nobody gave her tips. With her fingers told everyone to FUCK YOU. And she tells everyone that why they come here and do not give tips to her. then all customers will be stared at and even the bartender told her nothing. So we thought that maybe PRICILLA has a PRIVILEGE IN JUMBOS CLOWN ROOM that neither the bartenders can tell her anything about how to treat the customer. We decided to go to another bar calmer and not expect them to treat us like the stripper PRICILLA did us that night. We would like to spoken with the owner or manager. to realize how they behave and how they strippers treat the customer at this place. To avoid problems in the future we will call jumbos. first to ask who are the strippers who they working in that place that day or night. If PRICILLA is working that day or night better not go to avoid insults and disrespect to us.
