    Food always tasty. Beers cold and on rotation. Ambience super chill. A great hangout spot and place to bring a date.

    Thank you to our Server that took care of our 17 top Friday afternoon. Her patience with us and our party was stellar. Our granddaughter and her sweetheart both graduated from the Phila Police Academy were running late and held us up. Our server was able to handle us and the rest of her station with ease. She was on top of our drinks and table maintenance. Our orders were all correct and the food and cocktails were all on point! We will definitely be back! Again, thank you to our server and this establishment for helping make a memorable experience!

    Love the food. Great traditional pub food with a flair. Interesting choice of decor. Cool pics of monkeys painted. Great outdoor area and food comes out fast. Service is meh. Not bad but definitely not good. Seating is a little tight. Fun local, small spot.

    I was happy with my food. I guess I expected more because of how everyone rants and raves about this place. The inside is decorated for the holidays so it was nice and cozy. I really enjoyed my chicken tenders, they weren't spicy at all though in my opinion. My fiancé liked his Cinnabon as well. The service was quick too. I think I will try this place again for lunch one of these days.

    Went here for a girls' lunch and it was fantastic! We were seated right away and our server was attentive without hovering. Plus while there was music playing it was quiet enough to chat during our meal. The pierogi were amazing, the truffle fries perfectly crispy and served in a cute "paper" cone, the salad we got to share was also amazing with candied nuts and crisp apple and tangy crumbles of cheese! Will definitely be back here to try more of their menu.

    Went at 10am on Saturday and the place was empty!! We thought it was going to be packed for brunch, but it didn't fill up until closer to noon. Plenty of street parking. The eggs benny was good, the bacon was crispy, as were the potatoes. 4 brunch entrees and 2 mimosas came out to about $75

    Peach & Burrata Salad
    Kimberly H.

    We had drinks and the food was amazing the burrata pecan salad out of this world with that dressing! Also, definitely recommend the cheesesteak egg rolls! Love this local spot and they have outdoor seating and it's decorated really cute!

    Ask the Community - Three Monkeys Cafe

    Can you bring your dog?

    No pets

    Does the restaurant offer birthday specials and/or complimentary bday desserts?

    I tend to doubt it, this place does not offer any discounts or special favors. Can’t even get fries with burgers without dishing out more money.

    Are they offering outdoor seating?

    Outdoor seating is allowed in Philadelphia starting June 12th.

    Do they have karaoke?

    No I've never seen karaoke there.

    When is the outdoor area open?

    Whenever the weather is nice!

The parking lot and the…read moreinterior were huge, but I came at opening on a weekday, so it looked a lot more empty inside than it was. Our waitress was very friendly and ended up leaving a pitcher of water once she saw we were parched. The salad bar wasn't huge, but there were some cold dishes along with salad fixings, which is part of the vintage charm. The bread (not complementary) was also a huge round loaf great for sharing. The decor's medieval vibe is very charming and it's nice looking around the room. The kitchen is open to the dining room with big brick ovens. I had the prime rib which was big and juicy (the baked potato was fine but the Yorkshire puff was bland and barely editable soaked in juice - may just be I don't like this food). The steak came with a giant onion ring which was delightful, and it was cooked perfectly tender. This place thrives in your meat and potato staples, so not a lot of side options except what's at the salad bar. For dessert, we had to try the peach melba delight, which was a giant goblet of vanilla ice cream, peaches in juice, whipped cream, and a cherry on top. Deceptively simple but extremely tasty and great to share There's a large bar area and the bathrooms are nice. This place is great for larger groups that include older people. The food is good and the atmosphere did feel like it was from another time, but we had a good time, and it's nice to see a place like this still around.

As a vegetarian, I can't recommend their seitan cheese steak highly enough - it was savory comfort food wrapped in a perfectly balanced amount of delicate hoagie bun. The mixed greens salad was also pretty top notch. My husband loved his steak frites and didn't expect such a nice cut of meat. We both had beers recommended by our attentive server and she nailed it.

Since the bar seats were full, we had the choice to head all the way to the 2nd rear bar. We took the short journey to the secluded small bar that was also full and took refuge at one of the four tables. We took a look at the "Beer Bible" or their version of a drink menu. The bartender informed us that we could not sit at the table unless we were ordering food. At this point we ended our pub crawl and left defeated scratching our heads. This was far from a classy place without a line out the door during the week which made it even more alarming. Interesting experience as our last taste of Philly.

Highly recommend if you have an appetite. Half chicken comes with a monster serving of mashed potatoes, all covered in jus and sliced olives. Recommend if you have an appetite as well! It's hearty for sure, with a seared lemon wedge--as if it needs any more flavor. Worth a visit if here for a night or you're a local!

We asked for the toppings on the side because, you know, kids, but WOW. The vodka sauce was delicious, and the pickled tomato concoction that came with them? I could've bathed in it. The calamari was perfectly crisp and came with the unexpected bonus of onion rings, which were ever-so-lightly battered and perfectly crunchy. And once again, the sauces were superb. The boys shared a cheese pizza, half pepperoni, and really enjoyed it. My husband ordered the burger, and yes, I stole a bite--and yes, to no one's surprise, it was amazing. We also ordered the charred broccoli after seeing everyone rave about it online. They were NOT wrong. Creamy, smoky, charred perfection. And finally... drumroll please... the 10 oz. smoked Duroc pork chop! OH. EM. GEEE. Perfectly charred on the outside and incredibly juicy inside, sitting in the most delicious smoky morita-apricot glaze and topped with a bright cucumber-melon salad with mint and blue basil. The contrast was perfection! The rich, smoky pork, the sweet and slightly spicy glaze, and that cool, fresh salad on top. Every bite had the perfect combination of flavors and textures. Easily one of the best pork chops I've ever had. As wonderful as the food was, the service somehow made the experience even better. From the minute we arrived, we were treated like family coming home for the holidays. Warm, welcoming, attentive, and genuinely kind. What an absolute joy of a restaurant. Darling Jack's, I WILL be back!

I wanted to give him plenty of time to chill and relax before we went out to dinner, and it worked out perfectly. I ordered the Chicken Piccata, and it was delicious! The chicken was perfectly cooked and full of lemony flavor with a creamy sauce. The asparagus was also very tender and cooked perfectly. My guy ordered the Buffalo Chicken Caesar Salad, which was so good he shared some with me. He also ordered the Whiskey-Glazed Salmon, which came with rice and asparagus. The salmon was cooked perfectly--not dry at all, with a nice crispy outside and amazing flavor. Apparently, one Buffalo Chicken Caesar Salad wasn't enough because he was still hungry, so he ordered another one! It was just as amazing as the first.

This way it was easy for our group to talk. I saw someone else drinking a drink that looked really good so I just ordered that without looking at the menu. It was in a champagne glass and had an orange peel in it. This drink was delish and I would order it again. I ordered the caesar w salmon. The salad itself was fine but the dressing didn't taste at all like caesar dressing. I still ate the whole thing - but just didn't love the dressing. The bartender was running around like crazy and I felt bad for her that she had to work so hard.
