In November "The Broadway Lounge" will be hosting their first Veterans Day Ceremony in honor of all Veterans, old and new, who have served this country by fighting for our freedom. Dave will be organizing this gathering so he will post details. I strongly suggest that all Americans (including everyone living in this country) show up for this event to express our appreciation to the people who fought and are currently fighting for our freedom. They deserve our respect. Without them we would not have the freedoms that we take for granted every day of our lives. Please make their day as important, or more important, than Halloween.
Thank You In Advance,
The Proprietors and Staff of The Broadway Lounge
Just to keep everyone updated who hasn't been in to the "Broadway Lounge" to see the improvements that have been made:
1) The wall behind the bar has been brickfaced and looks so much better than the painted green wood that was there previously.
2) Two (2) flat screened television sets have been mounted over the bar on the right and left sides to insure coverage of all sporting events. That makes three TV's including the large screen in the right hand corner of the bar.
3) New stools along the left side of the bar (under the new shelf) for dart team seating and also providing a great view of the new flat screens over the bar. If you are playing darts or watching TV, you have a place to set your drinks.
4) Brand new one (1) inch slate covered in blue felt on the pool table. New pool sticks, plenty of chalk and still $1.00 per game. (Back story to follow regarding new slate)
5) Brand new Glycol system for taps, cooler and under bar repair (compressors were not changed since the bar was called "The Beverly Lounge" in the 1960's). Props to Richard Reisert (former owner of "Rafters" on Broadway in Hewlett for 25 years). If you need refrigeration repair - he is the man to call. (Yep, it's true. I wouldn't believe it either but he made it happen)
6) New flat screen TV in the back room with bench seating for "special events" which I have no knowledge of just yet.
********************************************************************************************************************************************
You are going to have to see the improvements for yourself to believe them. I've been at this location for almost 3 years and it's never looked better than it does now. (I would also like to say that the previous prices have not changed either so we are probably the least expensive bar in the 5 Towns)
Don't forget about "Happy Hour" from 4:00 to 7:00 pm depending on how late the night bartender shows up. I have to say that Budweiser on tap at $2.00 a pint during "Happy Hour" works out to the customers benefit. "Coors Light" on tap at the same price also pays off for the customer during this time of financial insecurity in America. If you need to socialize with your friends, get out of the house, or just not drink alone, we are here for you so please come visit us at any time. Buy backs are still a rule after three (3) drinks. Happy Hour is still $1.00 of all tap beer, bottled beer, wine and rack liquor (Sorry, no buy backs during Happy Hour on those items but named brand liquor always is bought back after three (3) drinks).
Future events include:
Halloween Party - Friday, October 31, 2008
Free admission - Costume required - Prizes for best costumes (catagories included - see MySpace.com-BROADWAY LOUNGE or ask night bartenders for details (516)599-9867)
From what I hear from others, this should be a blast.

Im Jim a soldier with an Engineering Company in the Army. Im glad that yall observin Veterans Day and hoisting a few for the boys and girls tryin to the right thing.
God Bless You
All fixed up but not a frikin night bartender knows what she's doin. Don't tell me about buy-backs, you don't get any at Casa Del Bandeja.
Dear mtec j:
Thanks for your comment. We're trying to get it together with the cooperation of the regular veterans, the staff and the boss (also a veteran). I'm hoping (and praying) that we can pull this off respectfully to show our appreciation to you and every single person who fought for our county and our freedom.
I don't know your personal situation, but if you are available please come by. All are welcome to join us for this very special occasion. Bring other service people if you want. If you are not available pictures will be posted for your perusal and a review will be written in detail.
Respectfully,
The Proprietor, staff and patrons of The Broadway Lounge.
To Anonymous 10/5/08:
If you don't like what goes on at night, then come in during the day shift.
Truthfully, I can't believe that the night bartenders don't buy back.
As for racial remark you made, well, I guess that's just the way you were raised, disrespecting people that are not of your race. Just remember that all of us have relatives that came to America from other countries. I am 5th generation American but my ancestors are from Russia and Poland. Unless you are of American Indian decent (doubtful), then you really shouldn't use phrases that degrade other peoples lineage. Just in case you are of American Indian decent you still shouldn't use such hateful words. They call us the "United States of America" for a reason. We are all immigrants or decendants of immigrants who have united.
In proper Spanish, "Yo soy Americana", and if you can't deal with it then adios amigo.
To mtec j,
Dear Jim:
You'll be proud to learn that our Veterans Day/233rd Marine Corps Birthday event went really well. We even hoisted a few to you and your Army Engineering Company (too bad you were "in absentia", quoting the band, Pink Floyd, "Wish You Were Here").
Anyway, thank you all again for serving our country and protecting our rights. We really appreciate it and have much respect for all of you.
Maybe next year you'll be able to join us. I certainly hope so, you sound like good people.
RRRRRRRR
