The authorities in Seattle are brutal to any non-white/non-wealthy people, it doesn’t surprise me at all they would also be brutal on non-cishet peoples as well… I think the old money still hates that it turned into a melting pot and the do everything they can to prevent social mixing of classes and races
The reaction by the liquor board is just bizarre too:
“The lewd conduct violations in question were related to clothing that exposed the buttocks and nipples of patrons, which is prohibited under state law in liquor establishments”
Well, you better be ready to show your citations for all the titty bars or you can shut right the fuck up about your “violations”.
Unfortunately the guy who owns Ladybug (same concept) has purchased most of the bikini coffee shops. It’s now WAY over priced and the quality of service is WAY lower. You’re more likely to get skanky stripper flashing than college coed flirt. Also apparently that guy is an asshole on many levels according to the girls. Many of them are closed now.

And this is Seattle. If you want to ogle a bikini girl your choices are these shops or Alki during our annual one-week heat wave when you don’t need to wear multiple layers.
The shut down ones were usually Ladybug. They had different owner and different kind of staff. At cowgirl they had college coed and you paid a dollar or two more for your coffee and tipped well because they were super nice. The other place had skanky strippers on drugs, $20 coffee and you sometimes wondered if the coffee came with an STD.
Haven’t been to Seattle in years, I hear many didn’t survive.
To be honest, I prefer my coffee to be prepared by fully clothed people and I never really went to one. And coffee makes me feel really freaking weird so I just make my own if I really want some. I just remember the news stories and the sarcasm about it in my friend group.
I think I’ve seen a few of them lately they’re nowhere near as common as they used to be though.
Same for Vegas, though I don’t think it applies to the top. And I think there is one or two places that are exempt, who knows what laws they grandfathered.

Wait what? Isn’t Seattle a naked city?
Apparently not with alcohol…

So for lewdness, they should raid these kinds of places too right?
Cowgirl Espresso Washington
What are those places? Stripclubs?
Drive up coffee shops with barely clad baristas.

Those used to be all over the place. The girls were pretty scantily clad but never naked. A lot of them did get shut down for prostitution though.

Oddly enough, in Washington state strip clubs do not serve booze. You can have nudity or alcohol, but not both.
