Often I find myself wanting to find another place to hang out and imbibe. Then I go and try them out, only to find my way back to Genna's again wondering, "Why didn't I just come here in the first place?"
The only thing I can say that is negative, is its proximity to the Best Western/other tacky places around the Square and State Street mean Genna's is frequently overrun with bachelorette parties/stag nights/obnoxious wedding parties. Inevitably some drunk dude will try to hit on a woman and get surly, or a drunk bridesmaid/bride to be will scream unmentionable things, leading people to stare, and necessitating the surlier of the staff to ice the party out.
I almost forgot to mention, Genna's patio during the summer is _the_ place to be. Gorgeous capitol view, Madison summer, and liquor, what could be better?
