  "description": "Genna's Lounge, a beloved Madison institution, has been a family-owned and operated establishment since its founding by Frank Genna in 1964. Originally located on University Avenue, this iconic lounge moved to its current address at 105 W Main Street in 1993. It stands as a prominent fixture in downtown Madison, housed within a distinctive polychromatic brick flatiron building. This architectural gem is recognized by the Madison Landmarks Commission as the city's sole known commercial structure built in the Gothic Revival Style, adding a unique historical charm to its appeal.\n\nAs an integral part of Madison's vibrant Capitol Square, Genna's Lounge offers a welcoming atmosphere that draws patrons back time and again. Guests can enjoy the cozy upstairs area on a snowy evening or relax on the inviting patio during warmer months. The lounge is a perfect spot for a post-work happy hour cocktail or to savor their renowned Bloody Mary bar after a Saturday morning visit to the local farmers’ market. Genna's Lounge prides itself on being a community hub, inviting everyone to experience its enduring charm and hospitality.",
