Ziegfield's/Secrets (Closed Permanently)

(310 Ratings)
DC's gay entertainment complex reborn
A whole cast of female illusionists at Ziegfield's and the chorus of all nude male dancers at Secrets are the draw at this two-level entertainment venue, which manages the feat of both great drag and great stripping. The cover charge includes a discount on your first drink. A must-stop! But remember, 21+ and every girl must have a male escort to go to Secrets.

Hot naked MEN and drinks - fun times!

Want more can you ask for? I was in DC last week on business and took a short Uber ride from my on hotel on a Thurs. night. Z/S is in a dark industrial area. Only the upstairs Secrets bar was open, but that is what I came for. There was a nominal cover charge and the drinks were more then average, but was expected. There were about 20 people in the bar at any given time and 4 naked men dancing continuously. 2 directly on the bar and 2 on boxes. The dancers were very friendly and attractive. A couple had erections at times which was a crowd pleaser. I stayed longer than I thought I would. It was told it was more livelier on the weekends. I would be there a lot if I lived in DC.

Ah the good old days

Been going to Z/S since the early 90's during the heyday of DC club culture. DC was so raunchy scary and exciting back then. Z/S is a dimmer version of itself but still my go-to place in DC.

Nice Place

There should be more venues like this in other cities! Had a nice visit, would like to see the club add a drink menu, with prices, like some of the other venues in town!
