  • Table Service vs "Tipping" The Bouncer?

    I've been to Vegas twice but always with a buddy or alone....mostly gambling/poker/sportsbook etc...never did the club scene....

    Anyways this trip (beginning of june) I will be going with a girl I've been seeing and I figured might as well check out the vegas nightlife

    it will most likely be during a weekday sun-thurs so I'm wondering if its worth booking table service for two oror just grease the bouncer with a $50 or a $100...I really don't want to wait 45 mins in line...but some places I read have a 2 bottle minimum...and like I said it's only two of us...if i do decide with the table service for $350 or whatever...does that include the cover charge?....and does it include mixers etc..? on the other hand if I "tip" the bouncer do i also pay the cover charge?


    I'm 23 she's 21...both good looking and dressed well etc...

    Thanks....just trying to ask the experts...this site has been great!

    Usually you might be able to score 1 bottle for 2 people if you're cool enough with your host.

    Let me be clear though, bottle prices except for a few places, generally start at $450, then another about 30% gets added right off the bat for tax and gratuity. Then you tip your host say another $100 in cash, and some $20's for the security and runners. It can add up. worth it not, it's up to each person, but it does reduce a lot of the hassle, you get treated better, have a place to sit (priceless) and no wait. Yes cover is waived of course, but you're paying it in a different way lol.

    Contact some hosts on here, see what they can do for you. A couple usually can get in to clubs pretty easily without the need for bottle service.

        I've greased my way in on a few occasions when it was just 2 of us. Worked well if you can find the right person. I just go straight up like "i don't wanna wait"
        I still remain "the best kept secret"
