Inspired by the cozy Belgium brasseries, this neighborhood cafe is a great place to grab a reasonable burger and fresh cut fries, or relax over delicacies like steamed mussels, smoked salmon, sea scallops, roasted duck or fillet mignon. Like a European bistro, the atmosphere at Monk's Cafe is casual and friendly with rich wood bars and booths in which to relax. Choose from 200 beers from around the world, or sample one of the 25 Belgian beers on tap-the largest selection of its kind in the country. Nice selection of wine, too.

Monk's Burger
After hearing of their amazing pomme frities, my husband and I decided to try it out. The fries definitely have a great taste, but I would not go back for them. Although, I have gone back from the burgers. They were the best burgers I've ever had and quality ingredients are the key. The mussel's are great too. The atmosphere is nice, and there is plenty of entertainment watching young men showing off by buying the most expensive beer off the menu. I will stick with the SouthHampton Secrey Ale.
