Yup, I used to live near Seattle and passed a couple on my way to literally anywhere. A lot have a cowgirl theme (one near me was shaped like a boot). I don’t know how good their beverages are (never went to one), but they were quite popular, because sex sells.

I never heard about the handies, but it honestly doesn’t surprise me. I did hear about massage parlors having happy endings, which is largely the same thing. WA is usually pretty lax about enforcement of stuff like that unless there’s a complaint.
