- Andrea BartusJanuary 11, 2016Ranchero Salad, Turkish Salad; Stracciatella and Red Lentil Soup; Blue Monkey Burger are all AMAZING. Beer selection is outstanding.
Brian McCormickJune 10, 2019Very ,well done bar/restaurant with great recipes and flavor in their food. One of best rotating draft lists in S. Jersey. I’d write more, but keeping it quiet will better keep its small town charm.
Great beer selection. Halil is super nice and a hard worker. His employees are ver helpful and always pleasant. Awesome menu too. Love this place. Best kept secret of Camden county!
Marc PMarch 15, 2015Very good here!!! Had the full rack of baby back ribs and just like what on the menu says about them the meat literally falls off the bone.- Great beer selection with 40+ taps. The food is outstanding, not your typical bar grub! The owner Haliel is wonderful, and the staff is awesome!
Robert BoileauMarch 26, 2016Incredible selection of foreign and microbrews. Wonderful food as well. A great place to spend a few hours.
Mandy PratherNovember 19, 2012Halil and his staff are awesome. Very helpful to three out of towners late on a Sunday night!
- Michael BurkeApril 12, 2010The owner, Halil, is the best you could ask for. Extremely nice. Remembers everyone. Always greets me. He knows his beer & does everything to get the best & rarest beers available.
I've been here a bunch of times with my family and once for a beer tasting they organized. They have a great selection of microbrews and imports and decently priced delicious food.
one of my favorite beer places to go to and the food is out of this world and inexpensive
The burgers are just simply incredible! Get the tater tots too!!
Angela WongDecember 5, 2014The burger! Patty is grilled to perfection! Food takes a while to make...- Try the Mussels in Tomato Sauce - Mussels in tomato sauce with onions and parsley. The man approves. ;)
Deanna SambucciDecember 19, 2012Incredible beer selection! Be sure to try the tortellini soup--excellent!
one of the best kept secrets in south jersey for craft beer, 38 taps and an owner that's willing to put a bunch of great beers on them
Stacey MoySeptember 28, 2012Come to the monkey for great food & drinks! Make sure you hit me up ~ it's in our back yard!
Great food and great beer selection but the owner and most majority of the staff have the personality of a stick
Christian H.December 7, 2012I agree with the good beer selection and decent food for the price. However what is up with the crowd? Was there from 630-9pm and it was a senior citizen convention. Not the crowd I expected to see.
- Try the Ranchero Salad - Basic salad but the dressing has major kick! Tasty lite fare.
Don't overshoot the bar and wind up in Camden. Try the pear martini and an awesome beer.
Austin FayApril 2, 2011Great tap list, but a little elitist. Better service if they know you, I guess.
Go to Blue Monkey for the best beer selection on draft in the entire Delaware Valley.
Fantastic microbrew & import draft beer line-up! 38 taps!
