Richard Fox-Revett sometimes refers to his children as monkeys. In fact, that is where he got the inspiration for the name of his restaurant.

The Monkey Bar & Grill offers a warm, inviting atmosphere and impeccable service. The menu consists of many comfort food favourites, with Canadian, Italian, French and Asian influences, and uses local and organic ingredients where possible. All the desserts and breads are made in-house.“The idea behind it is to offer upscale cuisine at affordable prices,” says Richard.

“Its not just about the food, it’s about the show, the environment,” he says. “At The Monkey Bar & Grill we offer a fine balance of having fun, but still maintaining elegance and calmness.”

I recently had the pleasure of trying the Signature Cheeseburger, and I can confidently say it was an unforgettable culinary experience. From the very first bite, it was clear that every element of this burger was crafted with care, attention to detail, and a passion for flavor. The first thing that caught my attention was the presentation. The burger arrived perfectly assembled, with a golden-brown brioche bun that glistened just enough https://9inteydegree.com make it appetizing without look
