NOW OPEN FOR INDOOR AND OUTDOOR DINING
UPDATE April 20, 2021:
Monk's is now OPEN for indoor dining, from Wednesday through Sunday, Noon to 10pm. We have very few indoor tables, socially distanced and/or divided by Plexiglas barrier. We welcome all of our guests on a walk-in basis.
Our sidewalk cafe is now OPEN during fair weather, from Wednesday through Sunday, Noon to 10pm. Construction noise and vehicles from the seven-story tower being built next door can sometimes interfere with our outdoor dining hours, please bear with us.
Delivery and takeout are both available Wednesday through Sunday, from Noon to 10pm. Check out the delivery and takeout food and beer menu, here. Please call to order, 215-545-7005. Monk's is not available via any third-party ordering apps or services.
We look forward to reconnecting with all of you! Wear your mask, get vaxxed, and let's have some fun once again.
OPEN FOR TAKEAWAY & DELIVERY FOOD AND BEER
UPDATE May 15, 2021:
1. Our Sidewalk Cafe and Streetery is open whenever the weather cooperates. We are unable to construct an outdoor shelter because of ongoing condo construction going on next door to Monk's. They are nearly finished with the facade and will be transitioning to all indoor work in the next month or two.
2. We have installed a state-of-the-art HVAC system that brings in outside air, has MERV-13 filtration to capture particulate matter and UV-C Light that kills viruses. One unit for each of our three dining rooms. That is already way beyond what the Philadelphia Department of Health, the CDC and NIOSH recommend, but we also added floor HEPA filters with additional UV-C Lights that will provide what we feel is a safe environment for our coworkers and guests. We currently offer limited indoor seating in compliance with all Philadelphia Dept of Health guidelines – including a few bar seats. As always, we welcome our guests on a walk-in basis.
3. The City of Philadelphia still requires our coworkers to wear face masks at all times and guests must also wear a face mask whenever not seated. Sorry, but you still need to wear your face mask.
4. We now offer Takeaway & Delivery. That's right – Delivery from Monk's Café! You can now have beer and food delivered to your door.
Click HERE for our Takeaway & Delivery menu of food and beer. Takeaway & Delivery hours are Wednesday through Sunday, from Noon-10pm, and the delivery area is river to river, Fairmount Ave to Tasker St. Please CALL 215-545-7005 to order. Monk's Café's menu is not available through any third party sites. Our partner Relay Delivery brings food & beer right to your door for a flat delivery fee of $5.50. Don't forget to tip the delivery person – you can do that when you place your order or when the delivery arrives at your door.
Please stay safe in these times.
Tom Peters & Bernadette Roe, proprietors
Welcome to Monk's Café
We are in a never-ending quest to bring our guests the finest beers in the world. We have been serving world-class beers for over 23 years (Tom has been doing that since 1985). Brewers from around the world stop in on a regular basis because we know how to keep our draught lines clean, push the beer with the right gas mixture, serve the beer in clean glassware, and charge the fairest price in town. Our bottled beer list is well tended and stored under optimum conditions. We offer fine wines by the glass and bottle and offer a full cocktail bar. Our award-winning food is house made daily (except for the bread from Metropolitan Bakery.)
