Really nice bar, chilled and has sports on but not overwhelming. Bar staff so welcoming and friendly. It is a locals bar, plenty of choice draft wise. And an ode to Ireland. We had free Jameson shot too !! Yumm

Good prosecco at a great price for the location. Tables both inside and outside. We're back.

It's a great corner outside the crowd. It is a hidden jem where you can find people that really lives in this city (especially students from the universities around). Guinnes is a must, but there is also a great whiskies selection or even Mexican Mescal. Check the pictures, enjoy darts!

Friendly and thoughtful bartender who turned on the back air conditioning for us when we sat in the back, fun, welcoming environment with comfy seating and sports games on! Great drinks for great price! Guinness certified

The place is super quiet when it first opens up. It seems like a pretty chill place to get a drink. The inside has a lot of cool things inside to see.

Look , I'm American , so I love a great dive bar..... and Monkey Bar is exactly that . Cheap drinks , dingy atmosphere , and a no BS bartender. Hell , he knew my roommates ex gf in NYC !! Small world !!

Trust me when I tell you that this is a great spot to grab some shots or have a few drinks. Lorenzo and Freddy, the owners, are two of the coolest guys I've met in Florence and they make the night one to remember every single time. This place is the perfect spot to chill and have a great night! [hidden link]

The barman was very mean and slow: we were queueing for beers and when it was our turn he just ignored us and preferred to attend his friend who just arrived. He didn't only attend him, he did a drink with him also, taking his time! All this without saying a word to us. We left immediately, they won't see me there again, for sure.

My partner and I ended up in this bar by pure chance. We were passing by, looked at it, and thought maybe it 's a metal bar ? We went in and decided to stay, after realising that an Iron Maiden track was being played. The barman is super entertaining and friendly, and we loved the craft beers too. We came back the following evening, but sadly had to leave early to catch a train. I was a bit disappointed that I only realised as we were about to leave that there was a static pole in the bar and I didn 't manage to practice a couple of moves on it. :
