Marty O’Brien’s—named for the Hoboken bar the Sinatra Family ran when Frank’s dad was a boxer—has hung up the gloves, making way for a new venue at the corner of 1st & Bloomfield with a familiar feel.

Sean Hession, the owner of Willie McBride’s (616 Grand), once ran Busker’s out of 94 Bloomfield Street, and he’s excited to return to that same vibrant area with his latest venture, The Ferryman on 1st.

The bar has been open throughout the transition, as work has been done to the interior and exterior. Keep an eye out for more information, with a grand opening announcement coming soon!
