The Monkey Room is a neighborhood bar where many residents go to socialize, watch sporting events, and simply to relax. It's one of the few places in the neighborhood who's prices are affordable, and offers a laid-back, casual atmosphere. It's owner and his family, have been a part of this community for over 40 years. He has been a consistent sponsor of teams with the neighborhood Little League, he has been a supporter of the Carlos M. Perez Scholarship fund, which benefits local kids in offering scholarships to parochial schools, and he has been a donor to many other worthy causes that benefit the neighborhood.  The Monkey Room has also served as a place of employment for many local residents over the years.  We're asking the local residents to help keep our neighborhood, ours. Lets support our local business owners.  Lets support those who support us. Lets support The Monkey Room.

I have been reading your stories about the decades of memories people have made at The Monkey Room and they remind me exactly why this place matters so much to our community. The owner is humbled by the show of affection from his neighbors while we prepare to present this list to the local board.

Seeing this kind of momentum reminds me why my family has called this place home for so long. It feels like the neighborhood is finally pulling together to protect the people who have always looked out for us.

Been going here for years. Everyone knows everyone. It would be a huge loss to the area.

This place is a community staple. Why ruin a good thing that has been there for 40 years? Ridiculous.

Best wings in the neighborhood. They have always been great to the little league kids. Leave them alone.

The owner is a good guy who actually gives back unlike these new fancy places trying to push everyone out.
