HopMonk Tavern Novato

Great local small music venue!! You want to arrive EARLY and stake your spot. The food is great, nice selection at Bar with a couple of outdoor bars for shows, so things move quickly even with a FULL HOUSE!..If you want to support a great summer concert venue they are definitely worth a try..Updated..Saw another amazing show kudos to Hopmonk and K.C. Turner for AWESOME MUSIC.

Ok food, allows dogs in patio seating. Options are sparse at 230pm as many of the House Special options are out. Menu was not updated despite many of the options have changed. Kiwi mocktail with tajin was pretty great.

Cool big place to get some brews, get a bite and listen to some music on the patio (on select days) very cool decor, seems like they have a alot of music events. Had a chicken sandwich, very juicy but not the best. More like a taphouse kinda vibe. Fun fact they have a photo booth if you like those maybe after a few drinks . Try only if you’re around and its lunch time or there is a good event going on

Great food, and offers a solid choice of local beers, as well as a full bar. The outdoor seating is fantastic, its very large, and quite serene. You would have no idea you're in the middle of a town. Great rotation of live music through the week as well. Service is adequate. Highly recommend the Calamari.

Went to rock music concert . You should watch for live entertaiment at the venue because it is nice size and inexpensive for good bands. Nice people but over worked servers. Good selection of beer on tap. Nothing special about the food but good, Better than any take out food but close to same price. Nice locals hang out or place to drop in after shopping at Costco or Target.

Went for lunch on a Friday. Mainly an older clientele. Service was really friendly and attentive. Food was only so-so, Roadhouse Burger was nicely cooked but very under seasoned. Cubana was overcooked which made it very dry, although the pork in it was tasty. Fries were overcooked as well. Probably won't go back for lunch.

Would be 5 stars but the tall guy with a beard working the door is a jerk. My toddler (who I paid for a full price ticket) had a half a biscuit as we were going it and the guy took it and threw it on the ground. Then proceed to take all the toddler snacks out of my wife's purse and told her we couldn't bring in fruit snacks for our toddler that we are using for toilet training. It is nice that they have all ages shows, but the venue is NOT family friendly.

Delicious pumpkin soup and arugula, persimmon, pomegranate, spinach and feta cheese salad.
