The Monk's Kettle

As a parent with a small child, I wish I could give this place a 6 out of 5. Monk's Kettle was maybe the best place I could have gone in all of SF with our baby. The outdoor space was super welcoming, the changing table in the bathroom worked, and the staff were patient and wonderful, to a person, when my kiddo started screaming. We got the Brussel sprouts, burger, and some excellent brews. The Sprouts were so good I want to send other places that make them here to figure out how they're done. I'm so, so happy this place exists, and it's one of the thousand reasons I'll never leave this area of the country. What a gem.

Huge beer selection! They have something for everyone. The food was ok, but not the reason to come. The burger was overcooked (we ordered medium rare but got well done). The brussel sprouts were completely covered in a sugar mixture, which could be ok if you were expecting it, but i was expecting a savory dish. We were able to get a 645 reservation by booking that morning, and the place was full when we got there.

Great beers selection, great food, great people. We wanted to grab a late night bite on our way home from a day of being tourists and stumbled upon this place. We could not have been happier. This is a great place to grab a late night comfort food meal and a night cap. The place has tons of charm, clean bathrooms, and the staff are very patient and nice. Don't fear if it seems far, it was a short walk from the bus station the took us up to mission and 18th from the end of the pier area.
