Named after a monastery visited by the owner when he was a kid, the pub first opened it\u2019s doors in 1978, making it one of the oldest bars still in operation throughout the city. In addition to brews and spirits, Monk\u2019s also offers wildly indulgent burgers, piping hot fries and, yes, peanuts you can throw on the ground.
