The Strip Vs Downtown/Fremont Street: Which Is Best To Meet Girls In Vegas

Strip clubs are great fun, but what if you want to meet some girls out on the town while visiting Las Vegas? The town is filled with women on vacation, and some are here alone or with a group of girls looking for a wild night out.

But since you’re only in town for a few nights, you don’t have time to hang out all around town hoping to find the best pick-up spots.

Well, we have you covered. There’s a big difference between the Strip and the Downtown area in Vegas. Each can be better for picking up women and we’ll explain why below.

Understanding The Vegas Vibe

First off, guys have to understand that when you’re in Vegas, almost everyone you meet or talk to is on vacation. This may seem obvious, but it’s important to remember.

You’re likely used to meeting women at local bars where you live. The vibe is much different in that setting. Women at a local bar may not be out for a wild time. They could just be out to relax or talk to friends.

In Vegas, everyone is out to have a great time. If someone is at a bar, they’re looking for a good time. Keep this in mind and you’ll do much better. Don’t be afraid to walk up to any woman who looks interested. That’s what everyone is there for.

Nobody is out at a Vegas bar to be a wallflower or to be left alone. Like I said, this may seem obvious, but a lot of guys don’t adjust their approach while in Vegas and they miss out.

Picking Up Women On The Vegas Strip

The one drawback of picking up women on the strip is that it takes a while to go from spot to spot.

What I mean is that if you go to one bar or casino and it’s a dud, it can take a while to get to a new location. This quickly burns through your time and you can end up meeting nobody before the night winds down.

If you plan on staying on the strip, have a couple of bars mapped out that have the highest chance of success and are all relatively close to each other.

Below are the bars that you can have the best luck at.

Higher End:

  • More casual:
    The Strat – (Two bars, one with live music – Younger, casual crowd)
  • NYNY – Center Bar
  • Linq – Promenade area (Lots of outdoor and indoor bars within walking distance)
  • Peppermill bar – (This is a restaurant but the bar is busy at night)

As for times, Vegas bars don’t start picking up until about 10 p.m. when they start reaching maximum fullness. Then around midnight, they start to slowly taper off. You can find women before and after those times, but those are the busiest hours for casino bars.

Casino Pool Bars

If you come in the summer, casino pools and day clubs are always great to meet women. They are usually full and there’s plenty of booze flowing. The pools also run at night, so that’s another option if you prefer swimsuits over casino bars.

Benefits Of Fremont Street/Downtown

The downtown area of Vegas, also known as Fremont Street, is the best for picking up women in a more casual setting.

Fremont is like a mini-Strip and you can bounce between casinos in just a few minutes. This means if one place is slow, you can walk right into another casino in a few minutes.

Fremont Street itself also has several stages with live bands and full bars along the side so it’s a huge street party almost every day. There are plenty of women to walk up to in a casual setting and strike up conversation.

Just be aware that Fremont has more of a Bourbon Street vibe, it’s not high-end or the typical “high roller” vibe of the Strip.

Best places to meet women on Fremont:

  • Circa Bar (The biggest bar in Vegas)
  • The D
  • Bar/Club District – Towards the end of Fremont near the El Cortez Casino. It’s a row of nightclubs and bars and there’s always action in that area. Think of it like local nightclubs but in Downtown Vegas. Indoor and outdoor seating plus rooftop dance floors.

Final Tips For Meeting Women In Vegas

The best advice is to walk up and strike up a conversation with a woman who seems interested. As I mentioned earlier, everyone is in Vegas to have a good time. If a woman checks you out, she’s interested and she will give you a shot.
