I recently popped into Spartacus to pick up a few things and boy has it changed! This is not your parent's adult shop, that is for sure. Apparently there was a major overhaul done sometime in the last 18 months since I had last stepped foot in the store. The front of the shop is a veritable cornucopia of lingerie, club wear, and other naughty delights. My girlfriend was begging for a few items from the front of the store but I had other things in mind. This leads me to *my* favorite part... the "back room". To enter the back age restricted area (the front is all ages), you pass through a sort of metal beaded entrance to get to the good stuff. If whips, chains, and leather are your thing, well then, baby, you are home! We browsed for an hour looking at all the leather items. The staff gladly answered questions and made suggestions in a friendly non-obtrusive way. If you are seeking a large selection of BDSM and leather gear, Spartacus is *the* place to go in Portland. The staff was great and knowledgeable (to the person that helped us choose the smaller of the two ball gags, you were right, her mouth would have been tired from the larger one). They also have a fine selection of more mainstream adult toys (not to mention all the lingerie and club wear). If you have not been to Spartacus, go. It is well worth the trip.
Pros: Great selection, friendly people.
Cons: Parking can be spotty.
