Vibe: Energetic buzz with lackluster exterior
Monkey Business certainly has a buzz about it. With its eclectic and cozy ambiance, it attracts the trendy younger crowd. However, the exterior of the place may not make a memorable first impression and might overshadow the food and service. Further, the restaurant may not be an ideal setting for a quiet, intimate date night due to the loud and busy atmosphere.
Great Ambiance
Charming, cozy, homey, eclectic vibe praised for its uniqueness and comfort.
Okay to Entertain
Live music at breakfast adds character, but can make conversations louder.
No Views
Exterior unassuming and unappealing, overshadowing food and service.
Perks: Great for groups but parking is a pain
While Monkey Business is a great spot for groups, not everything is rosy. The parking lot is small, putting off many customers, and the noise levels are enough to make conversations nearly impossible. Also, the service can sometimes be slow and frustrating, especially when you’re seated in their outdoor area. Despite that, the restaurant does have a friendly attitude towards pets and offers a good range of vegetarian and health-conscious options.
Great For Diets
Creative, accommodating menu with diverse vegetarian and healthy options.
Bad Outdoor
Service is extremely poor when seated in the cute but limited outside area.
