Frommer's Review

This narrow taproom is the city's premier local dispenser of flavorful craft beer. The first in the country to import kegs of Chimay White, Monk's specializes in Trappiste, small-maker brews -- including a unique Flemish sour ale it has custom-brewed in Belgium. Though you'd think its evolved beer list and lack of TVs would keep the kids away, it doesn't. Monk's packs 'em in nightly, from back bar, past wooden booths, to front bar. Mussels and fries star on a nice menu. No reservations. Menu until 1am.
