80/100 SW score
Cheap drinks and zero pretense Came here on a Friday night expecting the worst, but honestly? It's got character. Vicki at the bar knows what she's doing, the drinks are genuinely cheap, and there's no cover charge. The dancers are solid—nothing mind-blowing, but they can actually dance. The parking situation is rough though, had to circle for ten minutes.
50/100 SW score
It's... honest, I guess? First time at a strip club and I picked the Novelty because it seemed low-key. The homey dive bar feel is real, which is either charming or depressing depending on how you look at it. Drinks are cheap, that's a plus. But the place is cramped, privacy is basically nonexistent, and I felt like I was in someone's basement. Not bad, just underwhelming.
70/100 SW score
Good for what it is Been coming here for years because it's unpretentious and the value can't be beat. You know exactly what you're getting—a small room, pool table, cheap beer, and dancers who show up. Don't expect luxury or a ton of space, but if you just want to hang out without dropping a ton of cash, it works. Parking is a nightmare though.
