Alright, here's the straight up deal with Connolly's.
If you live near this place and want a sports bar to hang at with your friends, this is a great spot for that. It's by no means a "destination" if you're coming from a ways away. It's no craft beer bar. It's probably not the place you want to go to meet people (it seemed to me that people mostly kept to their own groups.) But this place has some nice TVs, it's laid out well, the beer is well priced, and they have a couple of decent pool tables.
This isn't a place that I will be frequenting, as it is out of my way, but if I lived down the street I would probably have my own butt print left in one of the bar stools by now.
Connolly's feels like a frat house party except there is no college near by. All of the reviews were on target regarding the attempt to be "bros", the obvious roids, some beer pong etc..
Last time I was there I remember it being dark, cramped and smelling a little.
If you are an ex wrestler, current wrestler, ex football player stuck in a time warp or a guy who just never out grew your college frat or even a guy who just likes to dress like hes in a frat whether or not he was then this is the place for you.
Girls if you are looking for the above paragraph type guy then here you go..
PS people were having sex in the parking lot last time I was here... and no not in their car it was on their car.. thats hot at 3am in your drive way its ghetto at 9:30pm in a parking lot off of a major intersection.
Great place to buy some steroids, contract hepatitis, and play some beer pong. Â None of which I have experienced. Â Connolly's just has that grimy feel to it.
I have had some good times here though. Â Your basic dive bar. Â It does have a stripper pole which can make things interesting. Â The place could benefit from an outdoor patio.
Actually this is not a dive bar. This might not be up to Snotsdale standards, as no one here is going to kiss anyone's a** for any reason. This is a good ol' corner bar. It has nice servers, the food is bar food, and the owners are cool. Â The beer is cold the atmosphere is laid back and its a good time. So if your looking for a high class, high scale place, go to Martini Rocks, or some other over priced bar. If your looking to get a drink and have a good time Connolly's is the place to go.
Review Source:Connolly's is a dive bar on the westside. The crowd is wanna be "bros" rockin the motocross look and promiscuous girls lookin to hook up with them with a few ghetto people thrown in. They have a stripper pole here and beer pong on Sundays. The first time I came here I was very intimidated because everybody looks like they're going to beat you up but in the end everyone is very down to earth. Â They serve food during the day but I always show up when they're done serving food. You can find me here every Sunday playing beer pong :)
