“Studio 13”
After relocating from a small town in Tennessee, I found this place disappointing. Despite being in a union state, it offers little for the LGBTQ+ community. It's the only club around and the smallest venue I've ever visited, which is pretty sad.

“Probavly the best dance club in Iowa”
The atmosphere is dark but enjoyable. The DJs are great, and there are attractive go-go dancers. Drinks are inexpensive before 10 PM.
