We stopped in here briefly on a mini bar tour, and it was quite dead. I feel they are much busier at night time. They had darts and a spot for live entertainment ! There was no soap in the men’s bathroom, but once the bartender was aware he attended to it immediately. There was nothing special about this location, but I think we missed it at its prime time of day ! Definitely stop in here at night time

Great local bar where everyone knows everyone. Reasonably priced beer and liquor. The bar food is ok and service is good. One of my favorite hangouts when I am in town.

Nice little place to grab a beer on a Friday night. Front of the bar is dimly lit with a great selection of alcohol. Outside is a covered bar / pool and seating area. Lots of places to choose from! They also have a food truck that backs itself into the area and serves food right behind the outside car. Check it out if you've never been.

First of all, and most importantly, the Reuben eggrolls are out of this world! The menu has such a The menu has such an intriguing variety, including fried green tomatoes. And of course a Bar must Bavarian pretzels with Guinness cheese dip. Music is always fantastic. Service is always fabulous. You have no idea how much room there is to relax and enjoy this environment in any way that makes you comfortable.

Since my wife and I purchased Thee Doghouse and reopened it as Monkey’s, Trevor and Tracey at the Garage Bar have been incredibly helpful in a variety of situations. Trevor never hesitates to answer any call or text, and is always very willing to provide guidance and advice when asked for. My thanks to our “Pennsylvania Ave neighbors” as we move forward in our own adventure at Monkey’s! Looking forward to continuing our relationship as downtown St Cloud business owners.
