New Bar Thursday: The Echo Tap

The Echo TapOnce and a while the downtown bar scene becomes mundane and ordinary. 

 

It's good to mix it up and get off the beaten path. A good place to do that is the Echo Tap, 554 W. Main St. The Echo Tap has everything you need for a night of fun, including taps and drink specials priced a lot lower than most downtown establishments, including $1.25 taps and $3 Captain and Cokes on Thursdays and Saturdays. 

 

With plently of seating, billiards and a crowd more diverse than a bag of trail mix, Echo Tap is the perfect retreat from the crowded downtown scene.  

 

The Echo Tap is right next to Madison's Greyhound bus station, so if you miss your bus to Milwaukee, it's a great place to kill a couple hours and have a beer or two.
