Monaghan Knights of Columbus

I attended an Irish band’s concert here and was shocked. The nicest staff I have ever seen working in the service industry. Clean, friendly, cheap, great atmosphere. They only charge 4 bucks for Guinness and I believe this is the cheapest I have ever seen it. We ate and watched the band who sounded great. No one rushed us, not one negative thing about this place. It also has an enormous parking lot for its size.
Highly recommended.

I attended a «murder mystery» at the Monaghan Knights of Columbus Hall in November. Our murder mystery happened at the same night as a wedding reception and the regulars chilling at the bar lost half their event space to our gaggle of costumed friends promenading back and forth as we tried to figure out whodunnit.
For one, we barely knew the reception took place other than the odd bit of music leaking out into the main corridor and the sea of cars on the opposite side of the building. The Knights of Columbus have a huge dual-​lobed parking lot well suited for accommodating large numbers of people. Its location off 8 Mile Road (I think) is easily accessible and within spitting distance of a shopping plaza that has a 24 hour drive through Tim Horton’s in addition to other basic amenities. Considering we didn’t have a lot of food on hand, that quick stop was appreciated.
We used their front meeting room, separated by a soundproofed barrier/​divider often found in gyms and conference rooms. That worked just fine at smothering the television in the bar and, I hope, the sounds of us laughing or confronting one another over being a possible suspect for wickedness. The tables were set up in advance and we had plenty of room to arrange ourselves without any fuss. A television showing bingo results actually added to the ambiance given our location was Las Vegas and one area we could investigate was a casino. Not sure if that was intentional or not, but I giggled anyways.
Washrooms were clean and accessible. The front entrance was overwhelmed by smokers and that pretty much prevented me from going outside because smoke and I get along like a newly broken up Justin Bieber and Selina Gomez. It gets locked outside, I wear a gorgeous dress to make it jealous about its choices in life. I didn’t make the arrangements so I’m not sure how much the venue cost, but the choice satisfied me.
