An Irish Pub style bar and restaurant will move into the former Simko’s Bar and Grill location on Brick Boulevard.

The township council recently approved a liquor license transfer from Simko’s to Mayo4Sam, LLC, which is connected to Blackthorn Irish Pub. A business by that name operates in Kenilworth, Union County, but the restaurant did not respond to a request for comment as to whether they were behind the Brick location.

The restaurant opening in Brick would be called P.J. Sweeney’s. A sign in front of the building is now advertising an Irish pub-style bar and restaurant opening soon there. On its Facebook page, the restaurant’s staff said it would be opening in June or July.
