Pretty great experience, friendly staff and a great outdoor spot to hang out. The beers were great and the food was even better. For what you get the prices were fair so can't complain. I hope to return!
Went for a happy hour on a weekday . This place is the old fault line location but is rebranded . Service was top notch , the server was super attentive & was able to get orders quickly Food was the best part of happy hour . Usually finger foods are meh but here they maintain the quality of regular Ala carte Drinks are great, there is a good selection for a very decent price There is a gratuity for parties of 6 or more auto added .
I love this place so much. I specifically love to come here for brunch. My favorite is the shrimp and grits, and my daughter proclaimed that the French toast is incredible. Their beer is really good too. I’ve never had anything here that I don’t like. The cheese curds are another favorite. It’s a great place to come and watch sports, and the outdoor area is really nice and peaceful. Great music too!
Laughing Monk is a great spot for craft beer lovers. The selection of beers is impressive, with unique brews that cater to a variety of tastes, from IPAs to stouts, each with rich and well-balanced flavors. Their wings are a highlight—perfectly cooked and packed with flavor, making them an ideal pairing with a cold beer. The staff here is genuinely friendly and polite, always willing to help with recommendations or share a bit about the brewing process. The welcoming atmosphere, combined with quality brews and delicious wings, makes Laughing Monk a go-to for a relaxed and enjoyable outing.
We went for Friday dinner with a few colleagues after work. It’s a convenient place near our Santa Clara office. We started with the appetizers and beers. There are many options for the main course, burgers, bowls, steaks..etc. the service is quick and attentive.
Brewery with a view. What more can you ask for on a friday evening. Ambience is amazing. You can either go for a upscale pub mood or a mellow lake side view. Food was great. Draft beers were fresh. Quantity on the plate was more than enough to fill us up. Service was average.
Came in after a nice day at Great America. Brews and food were good, server was kind. Drinks are fair prices, big tall glass for $10. Some food specials make the doings worth it, some items are a little pricy. Enjoy ~
Food was pretty good; got the garlic fries and the pizza. Pizza was thin crustish but higher quality ingredients. Many choices of food all around and theres something for everyone. All looked quality. Venue was cool too.. They forgot our strawberry lemonade and bell peppers on our pizza, granted we were a big group. Waiting on water a little while. They were slow, and then just us as a big group.

This was a decent brewery with a very nice location. It was not busy when when we were there Wednesday lunch and service was fast. They have a lot of TVs. The beers on tap were fine. They didn't have a terribly wide selection but did a few things well. Not worth going out of the way specifically for the beer though, as a brewery aficionado. Food was also fine, we had the nachos. A good place to visit but the location seemed to be the biggest draw. It seems to have had several names over the years.
