Your Next Round is Waiting

Welcome to The Monaghan House, South Amboy’s favorite bar and grill! We’re much more than just a public house — we’re a place where friendships spark, laughter fills the air, and everyone feels like family. From live music on Saturdays to Karaoke Fridays, Bingo Thursdays (don’t forget it’s Thirsty Thursday!), Trivia on Tuesdays, and league nights for pool and darts, there’s always a reason to come together. No matter who you are or where you’re from, you’ve got a spot here. So, come as you are, pull up a stool, share a story, and let’s raise a glass to good times and even better company — because it’s people like you who make this house a home. Your barstool missed you…and so did we!
