Laughing Monk Brewing and Gastropub

Posting this review a bit late, but Laughing Monk Brewery is honestly one of my go-to spots to relax and watch NFL games. It's a hidden gem compared to a lot of bars around the San Jose area. The owner even allowed me to host my NFL draft party here this past year, and my group loved the vibe. Service and food are great
We usually order the pizza, wings, or nachos, and you can't go wrong with any of them. I don't drink, but they clearly have plenty of beer options. Definitely recommend if you're looking for good vibes, great food, and solid service.

The food was ok, I didn’t find it to be anything special, but the service during our visit was horrible. Appetizer received after the meals were delivered, billing problems when asked for split checks, one order came out wrong and the server who brought it blew off the concern/issue, even getting glasses of water took a long time, and generally slow service.

Super busy even on off days; very good beer. Much improved from faultline; their beers were pretty rough. Even when some staff are less-than-helpful or downright dismissive, we were lucky enough to have Jonathan as our server and he makes it worth it!

This review is based on a 49ers watch party.

First off… amazing service by Tony (serving the open tables in the bar area) considering there was loud and fanatic 49er fans, he was upbeat, friendly and very professional. Always checked on tables to make sure we had our drinks and food.

Our orders were accurately placed and the food and drinks came out fast. Food also served hot. Very impressed with the venue, service, staff considering how busy it was. Very spacious with lots of seats and tables including outdoor seating.

Drinks are priced fairly. Ordered the game day specials. I thought the fish and chips can be slightly bigger in size but the dipping sauce it came with was delicious. Sorry no pictures. Calamari was good too!

Will definitely come here again and bring more friends. Thank you Laughing Monk Sunnyvale for an awesome time!

Great service. Very welcoming staff. From the time I got in everyone seemed so happy. The food was great and menu has alot of options. Aubrey was a delightful server n she made or group laugh the whole time. Definitely recommended this place to anyone. I will be navk very soon.

The food was good, we had the loaded nachos and truffle curds. The service was good and the beer was pretty good as well. Really cool merch. Plenty of parking.

First time dining here and it was a great experience overall. the Bartender lexi was super friendly, attentive, and made great drinks. I will definitely be back.

Always a good experience! Food, drinks and ambience hit the right spot - consistently.
Solid local spot been going on 25+ years now, hopefully for the next 25!

Poor service still in the inside asked for service 4 times been waiting 35 mins

Good beer , very busy

$50 dollars for lunch. What the heck?!? That was with no beer. And to top it off the pizza was absolutely horrible nachos were extremely bland I will never go to this place again. And the waiter never asked one time how the food was typical poor customer service.

Excellent food. Excellent service. And a shuttle to the 49ers game?!

This is one of my favorite restaurants. My wife and I usually go for at night after work. We got lunch today also. The food was good as always. And bartender was running but still had great service and drinks.

I didn't really like the French dip sandwich but they very kindly comped it and offered to make it right.

The food was good even though I was surprised a poke bowl comes in a hot bowl. Unfortunately the food came one plate at a time with l several minutes between plates and we were 9 people. The atmosphere of the place is not bad with a wide beer selection that I could not try.
