"This review is based on a 49ers watch party. First off… amazing service by Tony (serving the open tables in the bar area) considering there was loud and fanatic 49er fans, he was upbeat, friendly and very professional. Always checked on tables to make sure we had our drinks and food. Our orders were accurately placed and the food and drinks came out fast. Food also served hot. Very impressed with the venue, service, staff considering how busy it was. Very spacious with lots of seats and tables including outdoor seating. Drinks are priced fairly. Ordered the game day specials. I thought the fish and chips can be slightly bigger in size but the dipping sauce it came with was delicious. Sorry no pictures. Calamari was good too! Will definitely come here again and bring more friends. Thank you Laughing Monk Sunnyvale for an awesome time!"

"📍 Location & Vibe: Laughing Monk Brewing is located at 1235 Oakmead Pkwy in Sunnyvale. It has a decent atmosphere, especially for watching a game. The space is relatively comfortable and feels lively. Parking can be a bit challenging, it is a small lot so best to plan ahead. 🍽️ Food & Drink: On the positive side, they have a good prime rib deal that they offer seasonally, which is a nice option. The beer selection is also solid. ⏳ Service Issues: The service was a bit slower than anticipated. Even though we were sitting at the bar, it took a while to get our order in and for our food and drinks to arrive. 🗣️ Communication Breakdown: We also put our names down at the front but were never called, which was a little frustrating and seemed to indicate a lack of communication. 🤔 Overall Impression: Laughing Monk Brewing has some good points, including its atmosphere and food specials. While the service was slower and there were communication issues, the overall experience was acceptable. It's a place that's worth a visit, and hopefully the service on a different day would be better."

"It’s a spacious place with lots of seating areas. I was there for lunch and didn’t see too many people for its size. About 30 people or so when we were there. The atmosphere was nice and beautiful next to a small pond that’s well maintained. We sat outside so it’s a little cold but they have the portable heater so it’s not too bad. The food was good and the portion was big. Most of us couldn’t finish our food. The price was slightly on the expensive side. Poke bowl or a sandwich is about $23. They have a special Halloween drink for about $15. I ordered a bowl of chowder and a drink and it came out to be about $35 with tips."

"Came in a for a late lunch and my visit was all positive. Service was quick and professional. Beer was delicious as well as my choice of food. I liked the atmosphere especially seated in front of the windows facing the ‘garden’. Try the Roasted Cauliflower as roasted enough not to be squishy and it has a very warm spice to it."

"Excellent food, great beer, great atmosphere, good service - recommend this as a nice micro brewery-style choice. The sweet potato fries are a must - among the best I have had. Very nice porter on tap. Sat outside beside the pond, really nice place to enjoy food & company. Recommended for sure."
