| - I had a great time at Mullen's. I partied, danced, had some drinks, hung out with old friends, met new friends, and generally enjoyed myself for a few hours before heading out. Despite all of this, I can't get over how awful of an establishment this place is. As much fun as I had, I credit this to the party organizers (some outside group) and my friends.
Aside from the drinks being weak, I was forgotten about, given the wrong drinks, overcharged, and apologized to every time I went up to the bar to get a round. Bud Light, whiskey-coke, vodka-tonic turned into Miller Lite, rum-coke, you wanted what else? This eventually turned into a free round after the bartender set the drinks to the side and walked away (?), leading to another bartender/sad puppy approaching me.
There was a DJ, and the songs he played were alright, but he played them through a Mac hooked up to a the speaker system, and wasn't much for transitions. Top-40 bangers spastically lost tempo and glitched into uncomfortably sped mp3s of The Monster Mash; The Cupid Shuffle cut off early to allow for some unheard-of request right as everyone got on the dance floor. They have a big and awesome looking disco ball that wasn't utilized and a second bar area that had all of the lights turned off.
It seemed like no one in charge really cared about the place. So it's hard to care about the place.
