Monkey Maghees - Poughkeepsie

What a great bar! They have live music on Friday nights, and the bartenders are consistently excellent.

Donna is amazing! She's incredibly friendly, and my glass is always full.

Stick to beer and steer clear of the cocktails; they seem to dilute their drinks (especially the Tito's). On the bright side, you can enjoy free darts! Brian is a friendly bartender too. Just be prepared to spend around $80 and possibly leave unsatisfied.

Friendly service at this casual neighborhood bar makes you feel welcome. We saw a local act, the McCaffrey Brothers with Dave Laffin. We all sang along to about half the songs. People were dancing around the pool table. We had so much fun! Easy to step outside for a smile, and there’s plenty of parking in their lot.

Friendly staff. Great live music
