This Friday Bennigan’s is re-opening its doors on the same site that was shuttered five years ago due to a corporate bankruptcy filing. To celebrate their return of “Irish Hospitality,” a series of Grand Opening events are planned for St. Patrick’s Day weekend. The festivities begin on Friday, March 15th with ribbon-cutting ceremony at 4:30 PM with Saddle Brook Mayor Karen Chamberlain and Giants running back David Wilson. At 5:00 PM, Mona Lisa Vito, an acoustic duo featuring American Idol Season 8 contestant Ashley Hollister are performing. DJ/MC Bryan Sean will spin tunes from 9:00 PM through closing. The rest of the weekend continues with green beer, corned beef and cabbage, well and shot specials, giveaways and prizes. Live performances by the Replicants (Saturday, 2:00 to 5:00 PM) and the Benjamins (Sunday, 2:00 to 5:00 PM), complemented by the musical stylings of DJ Chris Court, will provide an energetic backdrop to the festivities.

The Saddle Brook restaurant offers 32 beers on tap, 30 HD TVs and an outdoor patio with fire pit. The refurbished location also boasts the company’s innovative new prototype design, one of the many new changes introduced by Bennigan’s as part of their current turnaround plan.
