right in front of my bar stool) and I LOVED it. It was perfectly refreshing on a rather hot sticky day in the city and I’ve been thinking about it ever since. This is the description from the online menu: Monk's Café Flemish...

Monk's Cafe, Tria, Grace’s Tavern, The Good Dog, Little Pete’s ( They will even deliver that late), The Szechuan Tasty House, Banana Leaf ( Both of these will deliver late as well) and Jim’s Steaks on the...

I would strongly suggest MONK'S CAFE,264 S. 16th St., with very good, inexpensive food and very wide variety of beverage options. I would also suggest LUDWIG’S GARTEN, 1315 Sansom, whose chef, Paul Ohlivier, would probably...

The season is coming to a close so I’m trying to eat as much soft shell crab as I can. I’ve had these things at Cafe Monk, Lalime’s, for breakfast at 8AM at the Saturday Farmers' Market in SF, and I’ve...

For a casual dinner, I’s recommend beer & mussels at Monks Cafe, is in a very central location. A little less central, is Standard Tap, a gastropub with all local draft beers, great burgers, clams, pork sandwich.

MONK'S CAFE , at 16th and Spruce, comes close to what the Frte Shop had been producing (R.I.P.), as does, surprisingly, CARIBOU CAFE at 12th and Walnut. Astonishingly good frites there.

are also within two blocks of Ludwig’s Garten and the infamous Monk's Cafe. Enjoy!

Hands down I would recommend MONK'S CAFE, whose menu offers an amazing amount of vegetarian and vegan itesm to go along with suprbe mussels, burgers, sandwiches , entrees, and an impressive menu of beers.

I will be in Philly for the Army-Navy game and am looking for both good food and beer. One place is a definate based on beer alone. That is Monk's Cafe.How is the food there? I have been to the website and have read the menu. Is...

Todd Ashman, brewer at Flossmoor Station, and a perennial medal winner at beer competitions all over the country, made his first ever trip to Philadelphia, to serve up 6 of his beers at a wild beer dinner at Monk's Cafe in...

My first suggestion focuses on the wine: PANORAMA at Front and Market, with its 120 bottle cruvinet, surely has the wine part down cold, and I should think the Italian menu should cover the vegetarian concerns. Another spot is...

As another poster suggested, Monk's Cafe (264 S 16th St.) is definitely great. Besides great beer and mussels, they have the best fries in town – thin, double-fried with some spice and a great spicy mayo-based dip. They...

Monks cafe has a fun atmosphere and good inexpensive food and great beer. Along similar lines I have heard good things about the Nodding Head. The Standard Tap, although not exactly Center City, would also fit the bill of fun,...

Both Cafe Monk and Delfina are on the list of restaurants supporting the Windows of Hope benefit. both are wonderful and there have been lots of postings on both here on the board. Delfina was booking up fast that day when I...
