Not for everyone but Monks place is a dive, situated in an old gas station headed down princess ann road towards the NC border. If you pass a place that has a lot of bikes outside that’s the place. Blink and you’ll miss it as you enter a left curve, it’s deep on the right. great service, great burgers and fries, interesting decor, and really interesting characters. Don’t think about making trouble there, you’ll notice the frogman comics and the seal insignia on the wall and you better reconsider. Bring cash because they don’t take credit cards, but there’s an ATM right there as well.
Not a lot of seats but there are some outside if the weathers nice.
I’ve only been in the evening but Ive heard that there’s a line on a nice weekend (hence the bikes) so be prepared for a wait.
O yeah did I mention the great burgers.
Update: I came back for lunch on the Sunday before Thanksgiving with my son and wife for burgers. We all enjoyed our lunch.
And Brittany is just downright friendly.

*cash only* Food was decent but service was very slow even though we didn't order any complicated food and the place was not overly busy. Please ask questions if you have any because they are not forthcoming with any info. If you get burgers, sides are extra. Kids will be charged for sides even if they decline them. I asked if my son could get 2 hotdogs instead of fries and the waitress said sure but then we got charged for 2 full kids meals for him (so $14) for 2 hot dogs. Frustrating lunch experience.

We have an affinity for hole in the wall places and this is one! Went on a Monday evening and there was only 1 girl working as restaurants are usually slow on Mondays. She worked hard for our party of 7. She had a couple at the bar and two pick up orders and handled everything with ease. Indoor is small but atmosphere is excellent. Food was great standard American fare.

Monks is Heaven on earth in Gods country, and quite possibly THE BEST burger I've ever had. Ever! Seriously. I was in the area for a couple of days, asking around where to eat and Monks came highly recommended. Their food was so good and so flavorful that I ate every meal there. The pulled pork sandwich was absolutely incredible! Their Philly steak and cheese...Sorry Philadelphia, these guys are giving you a run for your money. The wings, they even had lumpia!! Everything there was fresh. The meat was from a butcher shop, the tomatoes were from a local farm, the lettuce from a local farm, the brioche buns, perfectly toasted. I mean everything about this place is really amazing. And the thing is, you would never know that by just driving by. My advice, if you are anywhere in that area or heading in that direction you DEFINITELY need to stop by, I assure you will not be disappointed. You will not find a more delicious meal or friendlier service. Thanks Monks! Keep Rocking guys!
That was one of the best burgers I’ve ever had very very good!

One of Virginia Beach's best kept secrets. Amazing burgers and true hometown feel. Thank you, Amber for the great service!

Monk’s is a tiny local’s spot, best known by bikers as THE BEST burgers in the area. For the most part, it’s completely laid back and is a must stop if you’re out on a ride.
