Zambonies

Let me start off by saying this place smelled like a port-o-potty. I only stayed because my friend wanted to sing karaoke. She knew one of the bartenders, too. He hooked us up, yet wasn't the greatest bartender either. Nothing special about this place at all. The crowd was pretty dull, except for the zombie crew that stopped by, which was interesting to say the least. THe Dj was just a girl with speakers and a laptop... The crowd reminded me of high school kids getting drunk in someone's basement....
I don't plan on coming back. It's just not my scene.

I've only been a few times, and that was enough. This bar is right up there with Doc Ryan's for me. Frat boys and men in their 40s competing to hit on underage girls. People trying to prove how cool they are isn't my scene.

Zambonies is just another bar on the Madison strip of Irish bars. It was also on the pub craw list. After getting lost trying to find this place and ended up on what resembled Cabrini Green I was glad when I arrived at my destination.

The place was packed due to it being St. Patty's day and all the pub crawlers crawling around. The music was super quiet and it was St. Patrick's day. How are we supposed to have fun with out music?! lol ;) They had pizza but I didn't try any...waa waa. The bartenders were very attentive and made sure they kept the drinks flowing.

It is quite a large place and I read that there is a space dedicated to dancers, but yea, it didn't seem like the type of place that you could just get up and dance at. I'm sure after a few pitchers you could, but a sober person wouldn't dare. If they did though, kudos. ;)
