Good Dog, which isn’t too far from Sofitel, has a great burger, so that might be a good choice for your Saturday dinner. Monks Cafe has a great belgian beer selection, fantastic mussels and a decent burger. Tria is a wine...

Zuppa opened last night in the old Cafe Monk space on 4th Street at Freelon across from Fringale. The fairly extensive menu is southern Italian with reasonable prices (appetizers are $6 to $9, and entrees are $16 - $19). The wine...

flavors. a very impressive beer list for sure – i’m not sure i know of any other restaurant where you get quite so many choices of imported beers. i especially enjoyed the waitresses recommendation, a flemish sour ale...

not possible :( according to the monks, it is illegal to resell it. you may purchase it in person from the monks at the monastery or the cafe across the street, for your own consumption. the monks live incredibly simple lives who...

try Carmen’s Country Kitchen 1301 S 11th St, Philadelphia, PA 19147, (215) 339-9613. Although i think she closes in the summer,but not sure when. Also try MONK'S CAFE , at 16th and Spruce. Excellent mussles and fries and...

If you’re after great beer lists that include the likes of Rogue, you should check out Monk's Cafe on 16th & Spruce. It is VERY popular, deservedly so, and often crowded. But its wild success is the reason for...

in many different cities and I would say that Abyssinia is not worth a visit. Fortunately, the beers at Monk's Cafe (back bar) and at Ludwig’s Garten helped to save the day.

I guess I’m mostly writing to say thanks for showing me much support and good advice for the Philadelphia trip my wife and I just completed. Unfortunately, none of the advice was used. Thursday, I met friends at Monk's Cafe,...

would normally only find at Monks Cafe. Oerall I recommend it to the 25 to 40 year old crowd.

My husband and I had our first date at Monk's Cafe almost three years ago. I also think Beau Monde is a great choice because it’s a little romantic but it’s also noisy so you don’t feel self-conscious about...

favorite nice-yet-affordable places in that area – but they’re both closed Monday nights. We thought about somewhere like Monk's Cafe, but we always feel rushed there and it’s so loud. Any suggestions?...

I will miss the Triangle. Best mussels anywhere, before Monk's Cafe opened. And I did love their gravy and gnocchi, and the pizza was decent. Sad, very sad, what had happened to that place. Huge article in the Saturday NY Times,...

As DanielleM says Monk's is a great little cafe for lunch. I particularly like to order the mussels, they come in a crock and are served with a side of delicious fries with a mayo infused with some type of whisky. Their selection...

Monk's, Honey’s Sit and Eat, Southwark, Mug Shots and White Dog Cafe are all sustaining members of the Fair Food Buy Fresh/Buy Local organization (a part of the White Dog Foundation). Of those, Monk's, Honey’s and...

There was a place on East 5th Street in Manhattan called Monk that billed itself as Armenian/French. I went a couple of years ago—decent food, not especially what you would get at your gramma’s house, though. Anyone...
