2 years agoI loved coming in for the white party!! One of the girls upstairs was so amazing, I think her name was Liv or Olivia. She was so entertaining while pouring the drinks!!
Gordon Stirling
year agoAfter some fairly robust security checks at the door , my wife and I ( both in our 60,s) joined our younger party animals for a few dances and drinks to end a lovely evening.. All staff were very welcoming and friendly especially the security man with the goat beard.

year agoI was an Exchange Officer with the Aussie Army from 1997 until 2001. I frequently visited the Mad Cow and truly enjoyed everything about it. Seeing that it is still there and going strong, I had to leave this review! Food, drinks and the overall environment was the absolute best one could ask for. I’m back in Huntsville, AL and wish I was back there. Thanks for the great memories of The Mad Cow! I spent lots of money there and always got more in return.

year ago5 stars but only because Tilda is the kindest and sweetest bartender out. Been to mad cow a lot of times but since the first time I met Tilda, it’s been the best time! That girl needs a pay rise !

Chris Zweigle
3 years agoBeen to plenty of bars around the world and I had a good time the 3-4 times we’ve stopped by the Mad Cow now. Security is there to keep the people safe since the town is flooded currently by military types. Had a bit of fun punching the machine and the ladies behind the bar know how to handle a crowd and make excellent drinks in a hurry. Appreciate Cooper there opening up on time and ready to serve a pint. Kind fellow. Mooooo Mates! 🍻
