My evening was winding down, but I had to check out the Thirsty Monk. This bar is a MUST stop if you like Belgian beers. I ventured downstairs and picked out something that sounded good from the menu. The beer menu that is. I have never seen so many Belgian beers available in a bar before.

We happened to stop in to the Thirsty Monk for a beer on our way back to the hotel to decide where to go for dinner. While talking to the bartender (who was delightful) we heard about a coffee-rubbed quesadilla special they were running that night.

Very good beer selection. Only locally brewed beers on ground level and Belgian brews downstairs. Pub food is offered but I didn't try any.

This is must when in Asheville. If you like hard to find/never heard of beer it's great. The upstairs is all your local brews and downstairs which is amazing is all your Belgian micro brews.

Best beer selection in downtown Asheville. Upstairs are American craft beers, downstairs features Belgian style ales. Very knowledgeable bartenders, if you need suggestions.

i think they could should rename it "the drunk monk".i haven't spent much time there.just a beer or two, and i haven't tried their food.honestly it is ,to me, "just another bar"

I'm not big on beer but this place has awesome tasting beer! The atmosphere was awesome! Definitely goin back when we visit Asheville again!

The beer selection is amazing but the cost per beer is high compared to other locations. I will say we really enjoy the food, especially the pork tacos.

Soooo many beer to choose from. Asheville has a ton of local brewers and hey are all represented well. The service was spotty the second time I went there, but discovered it was due to shift change and miscommunication between staff - offered an appetizer and suddenly wasn't so upset.
