| - If you want to go to a dive in downtown Madison, then you definitely should check out Paradise. There's 2 reasons why Paradise gets a 5 in my book:
1) They have cheap beer. Speciifically, the $5.50 PBR/Leinenkugel pitchers are a steal.
2) The "ambience" is top notch. It attracts a great and varied crowd, with people of all ages and income. Also, they play metal music really loudly all of the time. So, if 80's thrash is your thing, then you'll feel welcome at Paradise.
These 2 points alone very easily help me ignore all of the shortcomings of paradise: The lack of decor, the food not being very good, the sort of weird layout, etc. etc. But they don't matter to me, because that isn't what I come to Paradise for. I go to Paradise to get away from the fancy drinks and yuppies that inhabit most other bars in the area, and to welcome the simple pleasure of drinking domestics to hard rock music.
