Deedee's is a GoGo bar at the end of a concrete strip mall at 10528 Page Avenue, which it shares with a TracPhone outlet, a PayDay Loan store, and a Mexican restaurant. A small sign on the window indicates that the venue is under new management.

Main Room

The main room of DeeDee's is dimly lit and has scarred wooden floors that while currently clean have seen a rough life. An ATM greets you as you walk into the establishment, along with a plain white sign that says "Please tell me management if anyone offers you drugs." There are six high tables set into two rows of three, that take up the majority of the room. They face toward a small stage that is risen about 6 inches above the rest of the flooring. A brass hand rail forms a barrier between the stage and the rest of the room, flanked on one side by a TouchTunes juke box, and continuing as floor to ceiling mirrors around the exterior walls. A stairwell leads down to the dancer's dressing room along the far wall, flanked by the entrance to the women's room, and then by the bar. The bar stretches across the far wall from the entrance, and is able to comfortably hold about 20 patrons. There's a spacious area behind it, with beer coolers under the bar and a shelf of liquor on the back. A few neon signs dot the back wall - informing patrons that there is both Busch and Jägermeister available. Another large mirror takes up quite a bit of additional space, allowing most patrons to view the stage without turning around. The working area of the bar exits on the far side from the dancer's area and provides easy access to the walk-in cooler, and an exit to the back alley. Further along this wall, about half way between the entrance and the bar, is an open archway and a single step down into a large side room.

Side Room

The side room has muted lighting and houses two pool tables that take up almost all of the available space. There is a thick railing that runs all the way around the room for patrons to store their drinks and ash trays on. The far wall from the entrance has a cigarette vending machine, and a change machine that provides quarters. To the right of this are blacked out windows, and a second entrance to DeeDee's that has been chained shut. It has a sign on it that reads "Not an Exit." To the left is the entrance to the Men's room. The speakers from the main room don't play in here, but the sound still filters in through the open archway.
