I went to the bar M.J. Armstrong’s last night, where my friend was guest bartending. Located not far from Union Square, this regular’s bar has a comforting and friendly vibe. The menu includes tasty pub food. I always enjoy the familiar atmosphere of the place, particularly when it’s a good friend who’s bartending.

M.J. Armstrong’s is named in honor of Michael J. Armstrong, a victim of the September 11th tragedy. A frame inside of the bar commemorates this man.
