The Bad Monkey

The Bad Monkey The Best Damn Bar in Ybor Taps at the middle island can be “owned” for the night on a pay-as-you pour basis.
(2080)

The Bad Monkey Bar is a military-themed venue in the heart of Ybor – you will know you are at the right place when you see a full-sized P-40 Warhawk crashing through our wall overhead.

6 full sized 105 mm howitzer shells sporting boast 16 beers on tap, including locally brewed favorites. Private groups will enjoy our upstairs “Talibar Lounge” for meetings or social events or a friendly game of po

ol.

24 flat-screen TVs on the main floor make this a great place to watch the game and we have plans for the very near future to bring in PS3 gaming stations. Our full wi-fi and state-of-the-art audio/video configuration is ideal for the traveling businessman, airman and sports/gaming fanatic looking to link up with friends downrange.

251 years ago today — June 14, 1775 — the United States Army was born.

From the Continental Army to the Soldiers serving right now, generations have answered the call so the rest of us could live free. Today we salute every one of them.

Happy 251st Birthday, U.S. Army. 🇺🇸

June 6, 1944. Allied forces stormed the beaches of Normandy under fire, and many never came home. As a veteran-owned house, we stop today to honor the ones who went before us — the ones who gave everything so the rest of us could live free. We remember.
