I expect most people who drink in Utah already know about the Bongo. When I mention the Bongo in converrsation I often see that twinkle in peoples eye and invariably they have a tale.
Or three.
The Bongo is a relativaly small local bar. The drinks are priced rock bottom. Really this cannot be overstated. I have been seriously gouged in some places in Utah to enjoy a few drinks. Not so the Bongo. Steins of American beers can start from $2, all week long...
The bar attracts a regular crowd from all over SLC, young and old. Everyone is friendly and relaxed. They have some great friendly bar tenders who are worth a visit by themselves.
They typicaly show most of the main sporting events on various big screens and have pool, a few video games and a darts board to while away the evening over a few cold steins.
Pros: Cheap drinks, did I mention the cheap drinks?
Cons: If you don't like smoke, beware
