Overview

Opened in 1947, steeped in history and resolutely friendly, Montero's is a nautical themed reminder of the Brooklyn waterfront's working past and present.

…so friendly…a visceral and rich of the many little remnants of Brooklyn's legendary waterfront.

New York Magazine

Dating from 1947, this dive is as affably grimy as the sailors who once drank here.

Although the bar has character, the locals' stares can be intimidated and would never be confused with a warm welcome.. Great to look around, lots of relics from maritime days, but it could do with a dusting and an attitude improvement.
