Monks Place

The best hamburger in Virginia Beach. Hands down!

I absolutely love this place! And always have. I have been coming here since I was a young kid playing t-​ball at Munden Point Park with my family. Locals only type place. Divey biker bar type place.

Stopped in here because someone said it was good. They only take cash but at least they have an ATM inside. They allow smoking which in not exactly a diner friendly environment when you are eating, or have small children. The place has dollar bills taped to the walls everywhere, and apparently it’s okay for you to write whatever you want on them. Some were plastered with pu$$y eaters rule, $suck my d! ck and all sorts of other stuff. It is a biker bar which is not bad unless you want to park in the parking lot. Good luck getting out of there without hitting one of those beasts. The building itself looks like someone’s double wide trailer broke down so they just made it into a restaurant. My burger was expensive and was nothing more than some Crisco wrapped in meat. It dripped enough grease for me to change the oil in my car with it. I ordered a soda and I got a 12 oz. can that cost me $ 1.00, then another $ 1.00 when I needed a refill. Good thing this place is out in the boonies and not where too many people can fall victim to it.

Made a visit with my son for a «celebratory» burger — going into Kindergarten on Tuesday! — and the bartender/​waitress was a nice as could be. The food was mostly prepared well, but a little underseasoned for my tastes. The fried pickles were a bit overdone.
Other than that exactly what I had expected given the long history and heritage of one of Virginia Beach’s [ahem, Princess Anne’s!] long-​standing landmarks.

We came here because it was the closest place to the campground we were staying at. The food wasn’t bad but the prices definitely were. The atmosphere was also bad. I went in there a non smoker and came out a second hand victim. The burgers were good but not worth the $ 5.45 price. Onion rings were also good but not worth the $ 4.00 price. Would not recommend unless you enjoy getting robbed by another person. And they only take cash, so if you’re a drug dealer, you’re fine.

Do not judge a book by it’s cover. You may drive right by this spot on the way to the strawberry fest or to Knott’s Island however do not pass it up. It’s a divey biker bar and those are some of my favorite spots. I had a ¹⁄₃ pound burger with bacon, lettuce, tomato and onion. The veggies were all fresh and the burger was cooked perfect. The bacon was not greasy and crisp. I also had a side of fried Okra and I loved it. They do allow smoking inside which is what stopped me from giving it a 5. I was there when it was not busy so it was not smokey however I would imagine on a busy weekend it could get pretty smokey in there. The vibe is chill and the bartender Crystal was funny and easy to talk to. Being new to the area I am glad I found this spot!

We have driven past this place numerous times, but never stopped in because we were never hungry at the time. Well today we made it our mission to check this place out.
There is a huge banner out front that says «best burgers in town» so of course we needed to get burgers. They were cooked to perfection and were tasty… like a homemade burger that your grandma would make. but IDK if I would say they were the best in town. You should also be aware that items are al-​a-​cart so if I remember correctly our bill was around $ 25 – 30 for 2 large burgers with bacon and extra cheese, 1 order of onion rings, a soda and a beer. I thought that was a bit much, BUT the service was EXCELLENT and as I said the burger was good.
I would pop in again if I was in the area, but I would not make a special trip.

Went for a leisurely stroll this Memorial Day. One of the only places to eat was here. Its a bikers place but I like those. Known for their burgers. Limited menu. BURGERS, FRIES, SANDWICHES… NO SEAFOOD. FUN PLACE TO STOP. Burgers are very tasty. Yummy!
