What a great bar for a night out. By the time we got to the Golden Monkey we needed food !We ordered a selection of Dim Sum off the menu and they didn't disappoint. There was so much food, good quality and really reasonable in price. The pork crackling is fabulous.
Downstairs modern bar with a magnificent temple style feel. Friendly staff serving up great cocktails and drinks. Food available and the dumplings looked good! Thanks for the vote if you found this review helpful.
The decor is really cool and as soon as you walk in you know it's going to be fun. Dim lighting and an intimate atmosphere. Great staff who really make an effort to ensure you have a great time. Cocktails are well made and good value. Tapas menu is basic but tasty. Can't wait to come back on a Thursday as it is a great venue for live music.Great place for a small group or couples.
Lovely ambient atmosphere in this busy bar hidden away on Lonsdale street. The bartender here made her own concoction of a cocktail for me and it was absolutely delicious!
This drinks and dining venue is fit out really nicely with cosy wooden seating that's split between their indoor and outdoor areas. If you want some privacy, opt for a back booth, otherwise sit out the front and watch the tourists strolling down Hardware Lane. The cocktail list here is thoughtful and innovative, offering tastes for every palate.<br/ <br/ I tried some drinks from the special Chinese New Year menu including a super delicious Yuzu spritz, a very gingery gin and mint and tea cocktail, and a fruity pineapple and rum drink. Each was great, although the strong herbs and spices in the ginger cocktail made that one my top pick.<br/ <br/ As for food, a vegetable dumpling basket shared with my partner was the perfect accompaniment to our drinks. It contained green vegan dumplings stuffed with greens and vermicelli, which were the best of the bunch. But all other dumplings were also great including some vegetarian dumplings in translucent skin, glutinous rice dim sims, and a big, fluffy veg bao. I appreciate the variety as well as the assortment of sauces available. While the prices are a bit more than your cheap and cheerful dumpling joint, the price reflects the quality of dishes served. For upscale dumplings and drinks, Golden Monkey should be your top choice.
