Laughing Monk Brewing and Gastropub

I will not be coming back here. Food is okay, drinks are okay, but they have scammed me on happy hour twice in a row. When I pointed out the error in the bill they said we were supposed to say that we wanted happy hour pricing when we got here. There are too many other places near by with better food and drinks

Nice location for a group, especially outside. Struggled with accommodating a dietary restriction

Good food, good location, great beer!

Great service, friendly staff! Great food and beer!

Meh. Poor selection of beers. For being a brewery, they dont even have any stouts or porters. Cocktails weren’t impressive either. The ambience was alright and it wanted that crowded.

Go wrong much?

At our visit this weekend we had a burger, pretzel and pizza. We also tried the side of garlic, mashed potatoes. The mashed potatoes were the best thing we tried. They were too garlicky for most of us to stomach, but they were fluffy and had good potato flavor. The pretzel was very large and a rich brown. It was a great chew and we enjoyed both the mustard and the beer cheese. It didn’t have enough salt and it barely tasted like a pretzel. Weak malt and browning flavor. The pepperoni pizza was like something from my high school cafeteria. Lastly the burger. The burger patty was perfectly cooked with a little bit of grill flavor. The cheese was very good quality. but the burger had a wad of arugula on it larger than my fist larger than the burger larger than the bun. The bun was flabby, unpleasant and flavorless. And it was super expensive. Over $26 for a really unappealing cheeseburger. Everything was expensive and just kind of alright in flavor. Service was prompt and friendly though. Atmosphere 3/5 stars.

We come here on Fridays, it’s super fun. Great food! Must try nacho dessert

Great beers. We had a good time eating appetizers and going through the beer list. The space is nice; feels more like a restaurant than a taproom.

The food here is either hit or miss, but pretty good for a brewery. I liked my flat iron steak but I usually go for the pulled pork sandwich. Their fries are like steakhouse fries, lots of potato in them. My coworker got the brewhouse hamburger, medium rare. The meat was good but the bread was soggy with oil. My other coworker got the lobster pasta, and he thought it was good. I wouldn't recommend the berry spritz, it sounded good but tasted just straight up like ginger. Even though it had mint leaves in it.

The service is always good whenever we come here. The staff is always very nice and personable, they make a point to swing by the time to check in but not so often that they're helicoptering you.

They advertise a happy hour on week days, but their website nor their staff disclose that it at the bar only. This business is clearly trying to mislead consumers to get them in door and the staff knows what's up too.

Surprised by how nice the ambiance was with a nice high ceiling and a view of the pond behind. Their beer is always a win

Great beers and damn good pizza. Not to mention the take home growler.

I came here during a Friday evening and had a blast.

The nachos paired with this craft beer was really all I wanted but ended up ordering their burbon burger which was really good!

Additionally shoutout to the staff, they were very kind and prompt!

Food was delicious, and made to order as requested. Some details were missed on the order, but in general it was a good dining experience. Food offerings are very good and diverse. They serve brunch on one menu alongside lunch until 3pm, at which time they switch out the menus to a lunch/dinner menu. The beers were good, but the margarita was not. All the servers were very cordial, friendly, and helpful. The pepperoni pizza and their main burger were outstanding. Plenty of high and short/regular tables, and the staff switched the TV to what we requested to watch, which was helpful. If you're a foodie, you'll enjoy sampling food on this menu. Try the beers - they have cool names, and you should find something you like. I'll definitely go back during college/pro football and basketball seasons this fall.
