Editorial Review for McFadden's – by Mike Kennedy
In Short
This two-story watering hole is another pseudo-Irish pub for the not-so discriminating young partier. The crowd tends to be an upscale, professional group. On weekends, it's packed with young, good-looking people. There is cozy dark wood trim, welcoming booths and flowing Guinness, but it's the generous happy hours (like $1 bottles) and top 40 soundtrack that bring in the crowds. The bar is Eagles headquarters, with drink specials during games and more televisions than Circuit City.

I've been to McFadden's a couple times and it was a pretty standard bar with a cool and friendly crowd, but this past weekend was well above par! We were a 15 person bachelorette party and set-up before hand to come. When we got there, they let us in for free even with the Summerfest Party going on - saving us each $15 - AND they gave us each free drink tickets. It was easy to get drinks at the bar throughout the night -except when one random female bartender decided that lip synching on the bar was much more important than actually serving drinks. The only other complaint is that the music was extremely loud - louder than I've ever experienced and I've been to my share of loud parties, concerts, bars, ect. Shouting at my max volume was still not loud enough to even tell the hot guy next to me my name. The entire group couldn't sleep all night because our ears were ringing so bad. But really - it was super fun and the bachelorette was very happy with our choice of venues! Thanks McFadden's!
Pros: Bachelorette Party gets VIP treatment
Cons: LOUD

Purchased tix to the NYE party only to wait in line for 45 minutes in the cold. When we finally got inside, we were less than impressed with the lukewarm food and terrible DJ, who didn't play anything created after 1989. The only redeeming quality was the fun-loving crowd. I will never buy NYE tix there again.
Pros: Nice young professional crowd
Cons: Overpriced
