Club Choices

Club Choices — branded interchangeably as Club Choices Houston and Choices Swingers Club — operated for years out of an unmarked warehouse on Star Lane, a quiet industrial side street tucked just north of the Galleria. The building itself is a roughly 9,000-square-foot, three-level Class C industrial shell with no street signage; the kind of place you could drive past a hundred times without noticing. Inside, the club ran a hard split between the floors: ground level was full nightclub — dance floor, stripper poles, stages, chains hanging from the ceiling, a live DJ rotating between Top 40 and classics, and a BYOB setup bar pouring free sodas, water and mixers. The upper floor flipped the script entirely — hot tub, showers, a swing, lockers, a massage table, a small video room, fetish toys, and a row of VIP suites for couples and groups. A small on-site adult boutique stocked by SoftTouchSecrets.com sold lingerie, condoms and the usual range of toys for anyone who wanted to take a piece of the night home. The club ran Thursday through Saturday, with the occasional Wednesday daytime RSVP play session and rare Sunday slots. Thursdays opened the door at 9pm and pushed to 2am; Fridays and Saturdays ran until 5am with last entry at 1:30. Door pricing was tiered the standard on-premise way — single men paid the most ($40 Thursday, $60 weekend), couples sat in the middle ($30/$40), single women paid the least and got in free before 11pm. Membership was a $10 one-time fee bought on arrival. Dress code was enforced firmly enough that it appeared on every page of the site: "Dress to Impress" — sexy for women, nice shirt, shoes and pants for men, never sportswear and never shorts. The crowd, by all accounts, skewed older and quieter than a typical Houston nightclub. One Yelp review captured the tone: "Not what you think — it's not a strip bar and there's not sex everywhere. It is very classy and refined. Women are very respected." The club closed at 5/5 stars across 12 Yelp reviews. By March 2026 the doors were shut. There was no announcement — no press release, no closure post on Instagram, no farewell event. The clubchoiceshouston.com domain went dark first (Hostinger suspended the hosting account, the standard sign of unpaid bills), Yelp updated the listing to CLOSED in March, and the building re-tenanted to Lane 58, a hookah bar that took its Yelp listing live in May 2026. The Star Lane address has a long history of running through nightlife tenants — StarLane Industry Afterhours, Club 5806 / Rendevu, VIA After Hours (closed November 2025), and Richmond Studios (a daytime photography/event tenant from 2018) all cycled through the same building. None of the two dormant Instagram accounts (@clubchoiceshouston, @clubchoicess) have posted since well before closure, and the @bacchusnightclub_ confusion that occasionally surfaces online is a different venue in Bishop's Stortford, England. The legacy Wix site at choiceslifestyle.wixsite.com/choices is the only piece of the operation still publicly readable — a frozen snapshot of pricing, hours and rules from when the lights were on.
