The Teal Monkey

The food

Plates are designed to go in the middle of the table, so it works well for a group ordering a spread. Alongside the small plates you'll find burgers and steaks for anyone wanting a main of their own, and there is a dedicated bottomless brunch offer for those who want a long, sociable afternoon. Ordering a few plates each and sharing is the way the menu is meant to be used.

Nights out

Music is part of the package here. Acoustic sets and DJs play as part of the evening, which gives the place more of a night-out feel than a quiet dinner spot. If you want to know who is playing, the team suggests asking when you book or checking their social channels. The kitchen opens at noon from Thursday to Sunday and later in the afternoon earlier in the week.

Where it fits in

Dublin Road links the city centre with Shaftesbury Square and the Queen's Quarter, so The Teal Monkey sits handily between the shops around City Hall and the university area. Several hotels are within a few minutes' walk, which makes it easy for visitors staying south of the centre.
