MONKI
breakfastclub & bistro
our mantra: do brunch differently
Monki was born in 2012 with a singular mission to help fellow Calgarians start their day off with a smile and a little deliciousness. For 5+ years, our passionate Monkis have embraced Calgary’s vibrant breakfast movement by bringing some fun, freshness and innovative twists to local breakfast classics. Our Mantra: Do brunch differently!
Our Monki squad have a passion for food that is incredibly contagious (in a good way). From eggs benedict to breakfast perogies to pancakes, we pride ourselves on sourcing incredible ingredients from like-minded local, artisanal producers. We serve this in an atmosphere that is eclectic & casual and sprinkled with a generous dose of friendliness & love.
We invite you to come join us, brunch it up and dance to music!
our mothership space
Our original space is located within a beautiful 100-year-old brick building with an open home-style kitchen.
Built in circa-1911, this used to be a lumber storehouse before it was lovingly restored by Banbury Lane Design to celebrate the buildings’ rich heritage and red brick character.
The rustic, artsy surroundings will make you feel cozy & right at home.

community
At the heart of what they do is always to connect with the community through our love of food, art & music.
We’re passionate on supporting a variety of local causes and initiatives focused on caring, disease prevention, entrepreneurship, and sustainability.
