"Welcome to Temptations.

46 West Street, Old Market was Bristol's very first Gentlemen's club. We are Bristol's largest lap dancing bar: main stage, champagne bar with exclusive VIP lounge, 6 VIP rooms, 9 private full strip booths & heated smoking garden over 3 floors!

Whether you're organising a Stag/Hen do, celebrating a birthday, hosting a Corporate event or just fancy a tempting night out, don't worry here at Temptations we've got it covered.

What's more our world class ladies are waiting to welcome you! So.. what are you waiting for?......."

Licence renewed

"One late objection was lodged with the licensing committee by the Fawcett Society which campaigns for women's rights. A member of the society, who declined to give her name, said they objected because of recent activity in the club, the increasing residential use of the area and the fact that more families were now living in the area." (Sounds formulaic.)

"... the premises were visited shortly before Christmas which raised issues about a performer's smoking area, CCTV blindspots, lack of literature available about sexual problems, family planning, sexually transmitted diseases, rape and sexual assault."

[Redvee]

This place is rising from the ashes again under the name Jack Of Diamonds on 04/10/16, opening at 6pm with topless bar staff and dancers from 9pm.

From the local rag last week.

A new lap dancing bar is ready to set pulses racing with a huge opening bash on the cards.

Jack of Diamonds, in Old Market, is ready to welcome one and all to meet their dancers at a launch party – planned for Tuesday, October 4.

Given the performers are described as 'handpicked, polished and delightful' things are sure to get a little hot and steamy. Thankfully, there's free bubbly all night at the party, so you'll have no problem clenching your thirst.

Entry to the launch is free with doors opening at 6pm.

A lap dancing club with a difference
Jack of Diamonds will open five nights a week from 6pm running as a bar showing live sports with topless bar girls to keep you company – if that's your thing.

Many envisage punters at a bar like Jack of Diamonds to be men but the venue is trying to break that image by encouraging couples to come and enjoy the ambience.

Daily there will be public dance shows on the main stage. From 9pm, visitors can treat themselves to a private dance and get better acquainted with the bar's performers.

What's the cost?
If you fancy a one-on-one lap dance this is what it'll set you back at Jack of Diamonds:

Full strip – Which lasts between three and five minutes - £20
VIP Full strip – Which last 15 minutes - £60
VIP Full strip – Which 30 minutes - £100
VIP Full strip – Which lasts for one hour - £180
There are rules…
And they go as followed boys and girls:

Customers are not allowed to leave the premises with any of the girls
Girls are not allowed to be touched during a dance
We did say it wasn't just for the lads
As we mentioned, many expect lap dancing bars to be aimed at men (they are often called gentlemen's clubs after all!) but Jack of Diamonds will cater for hen dos as well as stags.

A hen do package includes:

Male stage performers
Life drawing
Cocktail making
Pole dancing lessons
There are two hour and four hour deal available with prices starting at £15 per person.

Opening hours

Tuesday and Wednesday 6pm - 2am

Thursday 6pm - 3am

Friday and Saturday 6pm - 6am

Entrance cost varies dependent on when you arrive at the bar. They will also run a free shuttle service across the city.

The locals have been taking great delight in the exterior decor which is plain white and a few large frames on the exterior walls, from snippets I've gathered the owner has signed a 5 year lease and paying £40k rent so they'll have to go some to make it pay.

I'm off work Tuesday and might be tempted to nurse a beer for 2 hours and watch the ladies behind the bar.

I've seen that photo before - it's a stock one.

The club no longer does the 6pm opening with topless staff with the opening time pushed back to 8pm and no mention of topless bar staff.

[Redvee]

The topless bar staff will be a feature of the club soon. The manger/owner didn't realise that you needed to include this in the SEV so has put up notices on the door with the amendment to the licence for this.

[Redvee]

Another one to be added to the closed list, they had the hearing for renewal of the SEV Monday 24/04 and decision was made today of not to renew the licence.

There's an appeal process, so I'm not going to mark Jack of Diamonds as 'CLOSED' for the moment, but I'll keep an eye on it for updates. Thanks for bringing it to my attention!

Gay bar it seems

Or just a Sports bar maybe....

[Redvee]

One of the nails in the coffin for this place was when a dancer got stabbed in the neck by another dancer.

It was after this, the management wanted to reduce the number of security staff on the SEV.

The venue is going to use TENs for 11 shows a year. I am betting their will be a close watch on the venue. Wonder if the owner is hoping to get back into the normal business via this? https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/news/bris ... nt-2417294
