📣 We’re hiring! Join our team! ✨
As the sun sets over the Lake District, the vibe at No Monkey Business is about to get even better. We are pleased to announce our brand-new Evening Fusion Bowls menu, bringing vibrant, globally inspired dining to the heart of Keswick. Designed to pair perfectly with our signature zero-proof botanical cocktails, our upcoming evening service is all about big flavours, fresh ingredients, and nourishing food.
On Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings, you can look forward to comforting, slow-cooked dishes inspired by international street food. Expect rich, warming ramen broths, 12-hour slow-cooked black dhal infused with fresh ginger and garlic, and vibrant, spice-packed curries that deliver a serious kick. Every bowl is crafted to refuel you after a long day out on the fells, offering a bold, wellness-focused alternative to the standard pub grub.
We are now open Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings, 5 pm to 9 pm!
