My first visit today. Everything looks nice. I tried to order a flight of beer (4), but was told I cannot choose the beers I want!!! We have to choose one of two that THEY want!!! I've NEVER heard of such a stupid policy at a brewery before.

Unbelievable ...

On Labor Day wife and I decided to finally venture back within the confines of I-285 and hit up an Atlanta brewery we had not visited as yet, but heard a LOT of good things about regarding their devotion to Belgian style beers and ales. Traffic was really nice, as it usually is in Atlanta on holidays when someone hasn't done anything incredibly stupid and caused an accident, so it didn't take long to get there. Been a long time since we'd been in the Howell Mill Road area of the city and as we pulled into the brewery parking lot I noted it was across from the K&G Men's Warehouse, a place I use to get suits 30 or more years ago.

I will comment first off that the physical plant for this brewery is the most impressive of any of the 141 breweries we've been to. I suspect there are even nicer ones around the country, but I doubt there are in Georgia.

That said, it has to be noted that this is a restaurant with a full bar as well as a brewery, so we went to have lunch as well as sample their beer. Neither disappointed. My wife had the Monk Burger and I had the Fish sandwich. Both were excellent, as were the fries, or Belgian Frites as the establishment terms them, sticking with the Belgian continental theme. As good as the frites were, after tasting the coleslaw on the fish sandwich, I was thinking that would have been a nice side option as well.

So what about the beer? It ranged from very nice to really good. We went with having the two pre-defined flights that were on the menu that day, the West Side Flight and the Abbey Flight. The former is made up of two of their lagers and two of their IPAs; and the latter is made up of their Belgian ales, from a single to a quad, which works out nicely.

Service was good; timely and attentive but not overly so. All in all a thoroughly enjoyable experience and one that I hope to repeat at some point.

We enjoy our experience at Bold Monk every time! We were happy to see they were open for 4th of July, and the place was very busy when we arrived. We ordered the ahi tuna salad, wings, and the Philly cheesesteak... all delicious, nothing left on our plates. The beers were great as always, too. This time, I discovered Red Delirium- a really great choice if you are not a huge beer drinker!

My child's grilled cheese was burnt. We just got shavings for our $14 Brussels sprouts appetizer. There literally was no actual Brussels, just the shavings. Our server was slow and took forever for drinks, food, and getting the bill. The server forgot to order my burger and didn't receive it until the rest of my party was almost done eating. We wanted more beers but our server didn't come by enough to have the opportunity to order more. My wife's salad barely had any chicken in it which was extra. By the end of the meal, we were ready to leave and get out of there. This place has gone down hill. If this was an affordable casual restaurant, fine we can deal with it, but when the bill is a few hundred dollars, we expect top notch service and high quality food.

Food was a W, Syd was a great server! Would definitely recommend.

Beers and some snacks and a chat. The whole place is big and offers a few different seating vibes. The upstairs inside brewery space was very loud so not a great place to have conversations. We got a few snacks (hummus cauliflower) and it all was interesting- I appreciate the Mediterranean options.
Beers were average- someone in our party who got a flight said they all had bad after tastes. My stout was solid.

Gavin was an incredible server and really made this first experience here a very enjoyable one. He went above and beyond in every instance, was very accommodating, welcoming, friendly, and professional. Extremely grateful for his service and we are looking forward to returning soon! Thank you for a great time, good beer and excellent food! Highly recommend the sorbet, cauliflower, salmon and waffle ice cream dessert!

Bold Monk never disappoints! Both the beer and food are excellent. Favorites include the fries and the chicken kale salad.

Wow! The event staff at Bold Monk is exceptional! I booked a surprise party for my husband in the Cask Room last night. The team was helpful with planning every detail including helping with this arrival. At first visit with Nena and then the night of team (Nena, Gavin, Tola, Faith, Danielle, and Henry) THANK YOU! So helpful, so accommodating, so friendly, attentive and professional! And fun!! They jumped in our photos booth - how awesome!!!! Top notch customer service and I couldn’t have asked for anything more.

Also shout out to Angelina (I hope that’s right) at the bar helped me with a wine tasting in advance!

I had the opportunity to meet the owner Alan during one of my planning sessions and he spent time talking to me and even giving me pointers about how to organize the surprise. Such a personal touch at this venue.
Book your next event with them!

Wrong order was placed. It was quickly rectified and correct order came out . When the bill came, the first incorrect order was not removed from the bill so we had an extra meal. The server should have caught that. Otherwise we had a lovely time.

We went there to cerebrate our friend's graduation. The place was so nice. The have many zones to hang out, indoor and outdoor. We orders Abbey Beer Fight which had 4 different kind of beers to try. We also order some food which were Brisket Poutine, Fish and Frites, Spicy Crispy Chicken burger and they gave us Beer Fudge Waffle with ice cream for complimentary

Bold Monk is a gem. The Brussels sprouts are a must, crispy, flavorful, and unforgettable. Our table loved the hot chicken sandwich (the “normal” spice level had just the right kick) and the Cobb salad. I had the kale and chicken salad, which was fresh and delicious. Don't skip dessert! The Belgian waffle is outstanding. Even if you're full, find room for a bite. Totally worth it! Our servers were helpful, attentive, and friendly. Highly recommend!
