Bonk's Bar in Port Richmond gets new life

New owners Mike "Scoats" Scotese and Pat McGinley have cleaned up the joint, which had rough feeling since the Bonk family sold it at least an owner or two ago.

About two months after taking over Bonk's Bar in Port Richmond, owners Mike "Scoats" Scotese and Pat McGinley (Grey Lodge, Hop Angel Brauhaus, SawTown Tavern) are getting around to do a grand-opening party.

It starts at 4 p.m. Friday, Dec. 9, at Richmond and Tioga.

They've cleaned up the joint, which had rough feeling since the Bonk family sold it at least an owner or two ago.

Scotese describes the beer list as "2 rotating, 2 macro, and 6 old school craft – the sort of craft you would ignore looking for the next new thing but is really as great as it ever was."

Of course, crabs are still on the menu.
