The Silver Fox – Fun, Flirty, and Full of Energy This place knows how to throw a good night out.

Queer Maps Created with Sketch.

Also known as Glen's 1350 West.

The original owner, Glen Moering, operated the building as a bathhouse until 1984 when it was closed for renovations. 🧼 Cleanliness: Restrooms could use a little more love at peak hours, but otherwise the space is well-kept for a bar that stays busy.

It’s upbeat without being overwhelming. It featured a steam room, sauna, TV Lounge and sundeck.

Club Nur

Club Nur is the first and only middle eastern club in the area and they offers middle eastern dances and free hookahs.

Lost one star only because it can get a bit crowded and warm inside, but hey—that’s half the appeal, right?

It’s sexy, chill, and never tries too hard. It never felt grimy or sketchy. After Moering was forced to shut down his 1350 Club in Long Beach, he moved the business back to Wilmington in 1986, after renovations were complete. The bartenders are super friendly and quick, even when it’s packed. Lockers and private rooms could be rented. The Silver Fox has that laid-back, no-judgment energy that makes it easy to let loose and just enjoy yourself—whether you’re sipping a cocktail or cheering on a hot gogo dancer.

— Final thoughts: The Silver Fox is a staple for a reason. They’re not just eye candy—they know how to work the room. 👬 Crowd: Friendly, flirty, and diverse. 🎶 Music & Vibe: Great mix of pop, dance, and throwbacks. Attractive, high energy, and definitely know how to keep the crowd entertained without making it feel forced.

🕺 Go-Go Dancers: Let’s be honest—they’re part of the charm.
