MONKI

Monki in Inglewood

Come get breakfast in calgary’s oldest & boldest neighbourhood!

Be it a weekend family outing, business lunch or a brunch date, enjoy a fulfilling breakfast dining experience in Calgary’s Inglewood. 

Monki Breakfast Club & Bistro Inglewood

From The Beltline to Inglewood

For almost 6 years since opening our original Beltline joint, ‘Small space, long waits’ was the most frequent complaint we continued to receive. We could only address this by expanding into a new location – at a neighbourhood that fits the ‘Monki mantra’ – innovation, collaboration & community. Where else would that be besides Inglewood! Our Inglewood breakfast club was opened in April 2019. 

About Inglewood

Located just east of downtown Calgary, Inglewood nurtures a culturally rich community of local artists, musicians, boutiques, eateries, breweries attracting locals & tourists alike. The neighbourhood boasts iconic live music destinations like the Blues Can and Ironwood Stage and hosts a variety of festivals aimed at promoting local artists & businesses such as Jazz YYC, Sunfest, Fringe Festival & Mid Winter Film Festival. Furthermore, Inglewood is a popular family attraction with its proximity to Calgary Zoo, St. Patrick’s Island Park, East Village & the Fort Calgary Histroic Park. 

Parking

In Inglewood, Parking is predominantly free & relatively easy to find. You will be able to park for free (2 hours) along our block on 9th avenue SE or in the nearby streets – 11th, 12th, 13th or 14th. Being of course incredibly cyclist friendly, the neighbourhood is fitted with bike racks throughout the Main Street (9th Ave) and adjacent streets. 

Planning Your Brunch Visit

With a capacity of almost double our Beltline location, our Inglewood breakfast club offers a comfortable, spacey & family friendly dining experience in Calgary. We aren’t accepting reservations due to our limited seating. If you plan to walk-in during the weekend, you may experience a wait-time. You can instead skip the wait & ‘Get in Line’ virtually on your phone. We will then simply notify you when to make your way!. 

Enjoy a delicious start to your day by getting breakfast in Calgary’s artsiest neighbouhood!

Came on a whim because of the reviews, and the place was great. Lifesaving touch, as we were settling up, our server asked if we wanted a refill of coffees, which we declined cause our toddler was getting restless. The server persisted and told us that they had to-go cups, allowing us to accept a free refill... Truly felt cared for. Top notch. I don't often leave reviews, but dang, what a great touch of hospitality. Our server was Gabi, she absolutely smashed it!

Some of the best food I've had in this beautiful city. I ordered a featured item, the monki Cristi. Absolutely delicious, and the hash browns were easily the best hash browns I've had. The service was exceptional, we did reserve our table and glad we did as it got busy! Our server was quick to get us our drinks and food, in and out within 45 minutes. I highly recommend this establishment if you are looking for a great brunch place.

I like the variety of options on the menu, you never have to have the same thing twice. The atmosphere is inviting; live plants, cushions on the bench, clean space.

Visited this place a few days ago, loved how sweet out server Gabbi was! She was very experienced, kind and attended with a big smile. Such a cozy lil place in Inglewood, great food and lovely atmosphere. It was pretty crowded for a weekday so I would recommend reservartions to save your table. Definitely would come back for brunch another day.

Fantastic experience at Monki! Gianne was absolutely wonderful—friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. The food was excellent as well. We had the beef brisket bowl and the salmon Benny, and both were fantastic. Great flavours, generous portions, and everything was perfectly prepared. Definitely looking forward to coming back!
