The Monarch Stag

The Got Weekend take

Why go

The Monarch Stag gives whiskey lovers plenty to explore at The Star: an extensive collection that includes rare scotch and bourbon selections from around the world. This is The Glen’s dedicated scotch bar, with a cigar lounge and an upscale but comfortable setting. If cocktails are more your speed, try the bartenders’ take on an Old Fashioned; staff can also help choose a drink to go with your meal. There’s a full food menu alongside live music, so the evening needn’t stop at a single pour. The Glen and Monarch Stag concept draws its inspiration from The Monarch of the Glen, an 1851 painting now housed in the Scottish National Gallery. Towering indoor trees, lush florals and dramatic lighting bring that atmospheric approach into the space. For an early round, happy hour runs Monday through Thursday from 5 to 7 p.m.; Sundays get the specials all night. Expect bites and shareables, boilermakers, cocktails and cigar specials. The lounge opens daily at 5 p.m. and welcomes guests on a first-come, first-served basis.
