A Playboy Mansion-inspired lap dancing club, which wants to attract more female customers, has had its licence to operate renewed.
Whiskey Down, on Crown Street in Leeds city centre, says it’s trying to create an upmarket “new kind of image” for strip clubs, where punters would happily ‘check in’ on Facebook or Instagram. The premises, which sells premium spirits worth up to £400 a shot, first opened in December 2017.
As a sexual entertainment venue (SEV), it has to apply for its licence to be renewed every 12 months. Leeds City Council granted the club its fifth renewal at a hearing on Tuesday, with no-one having objected to Whiskey Down continuing to run.
