Dante's
If 5000 square feet of games and booze is hell, I’m happy to go there. OK, so I suppose that in the full swing of UW’s school year, the inferno does lap at your nerves a bit. But when school’s out, the adults can fully enjoy all that Dante’s has to offer. And it offers much. Every night of the week is dedicated to some sort of big-kid merriment: Karaoke Mondays, Beer pong Tuesdays, Trivia Wednesdays and Thirsty Thursdays with PBR specials. The weekend is reserved for DJs and live music. Most Saturdays, you can hear DJ Motor spin decent hip hop. On Sundays, cheer for the local sports teams while scarfing down the manna that is their Nacho Fiesta Bowl. And, like any bar between NE 42nd and Ravenna, Dante’s attracts the most colorful of drunk folk, so even without students, there’s nary a dull moment. Bonus: Apparently, Dante’s was a favorite hangout of lady-killer Ted Bundy. Discuss.
