postheadericon Monday Night Football: NYC’s Best Bars, Lounges and Monday Deals



Football season is a welcome time of year for men (and some women:-)) all across the United States. Whether you’re watching by your 72 inch or on your cellphone, some relaxation after the hardest night of the week is always welcome.

If you’re like many football watchers, you’ll crack open a cold one to go with the excitement. Maybe its out of the fridge but you might save a few bucks and have a great time heading out to a bar! I’ve done some legwork so you can find the nearest bars with the biggest TV’s and the best deals to get you cooled off after your hard days work.

Third and Long:

523 Third Avenue (212) 447-5711

Grab a cold Budweiser at the bar for the low low price of $1.

MJ Armstrongs:

329 First Avenue (212) 358-9946

Definitely on the small side so get there early. Great Projection television. $1 Mugs, $3 Well drinks and $12 Pitchers!

Johnny Utah’s:

25 West 51st St (212) 265-8824

A great venue for young graduate debauchery. They have a mechanical bull, a solid crowd and great deals on most nights. For Monday Night Football, they have $2 Coors Drafts, $7 Deer and Beers and $6 Appetizers.

TG Whitney’s:

244 East 53rd (212) 888-5772

$3 Pints of Bud Light and Miller Light, $12 Pitchers of Bud Light and Miller Light, $5 Pints of Sam Adams Oktoberfest, $3 Domestic Bottles, $.50 Wings, $5 for 5 mini burgers

The Village Pourhouse Downtown:

64 3rd Avenue (212) 979-2337

$2 Bud and Bud Light Drafts, $10 Pitchers and $.50 Wings

Each of these bars has a great selection of seats, TV’s and sometimes special sound systems. However, bars can change their deals on a weekly basis at times. I have added the phone numbers of the bars so that you can go ahead and give them a call and confirm if you are so inclined.

This was only a very small sample of the Monday Night Football. Check out NiteFly for a location based guide to NYC Nightlife and find the best Monday Night Football specials near you!
