Editorial Review for Mad Dogs San Antonio – by Noah Sternthal

The History
Legend has it that two Scots living in Hong Kong founded the original Mad Dogs British Pub in 1984. A couple of years later they opened another on the Chinese mainland. Oddly enough, in 1995 the San Antonio Riverwalk was graced with Mad Dogs San Antonio. After quickly glancing through the drink menu, it becomes obvious that the Scots' research in regions outside of Texas (gasp) paid off. While purists will be satisfied with Hennessy XO and 18-year-old Macallan, Mad Dogs pours up three types of "orgasms" and other kinky-named cocktails.

The Grub
While haggis (stuffed sheep's stomach) isn't on the menu, most of the food isn't much more appealing than that. Like bar food everywhere, all the entrees are a little more palatable if you start with a drink for an appetizer.

This place is a chain and not an authentic san antonio spot by far, BUT, this place really gets going all week. Karaoke during the week, DJ on the weekend, and awesome live music on sundays. Never a dull night. The servers are all dressed in skirts, the guys have kilts, heck, even the security guards are in kilts. Great atmosphere, pretty good 'meat market' at times, and this drink specials can always bring in a crowd. But beware, this is down town, and you wont get too many drinks over-poured. Over all, its a pretty cool place on the river walk.

Pros: Good looking wait staff, cheap cover on weekends

Cons: Down town prices, and weak drinks

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Best bar on the river. Right next to biiiig hotel. The dance floor is small but that is a good thing :) Suggestive schoolgirl outfits for the bar babes ahem I mean bartenders are really a nice touch. Have a goooooooood one.

Pros: Outfits on waitresses

Cons: needs antilock brakes??
