Café de Lachende Monnik in Wijk 01 Binnenstad

Nice atmosphere, tasty (unknown) beers, in short, a good place to be

I found a deserted and quiet cafe. The staff didn't even manage a smile, just a gruff reply. - The beer is good and varied. - The atmosphere and surroundings are very dated.

Delicious beers. Great atmosphere and regularly good live music.

I go to this café quite regularly. There are always new beers to try. The music isn't too loud, so you can easily hear your friends. The staff not only remembers who you are but also what kind of beers you normally drink. So they often know how to recommend a beer that suits your preferences.

It seems like a family-oriented cafe, where you can enjoy a game. However, the staff made it clear that it's 18+ and that children (ages 11 and 13) aren't allowed. So, you're better off going to De Tijd for a drink and a game with your family!

Ambassador of Orval. A must-visit for any beer lover, this gem in Dordrecht's city center. The café exudes beer culture. We went specifically for the Trappist beer Orval, and it was poured perfectly and with plenty of explanation. Truly fantastic. We will definitely be back with the Knight's Order of Orval.

Nice cafe with many different tasty beers.

If you are into special beers, then this is the place to be. I am totally able to put all my earnings into this kind of places.

Delicious beers on tap and in the bottle. Service is great. Highly recommended

Cozy beer café where you can sit socially

Nice spontaneous owner or operator

If you like beer then this is the place to be!!

Nice tasting room with a wide range of specialty beers. Service is also top notch.

We didn't eat anything there, so we stocked up on something. A cozy, not too large, beer café, where you can also drink a glass of wine, gin and tonic, whiskey or soft drinks. (And probably more) Friendly service and a great atmosphere. You can also grab a game to play.

Had a very nice afternoon on New Year's Eve. We came to warm up but ended up staying the whole afternoon.

The selection of different beers is excellent, the staff is great and knows what they're doing. There are also delicious snacks. You can definitely have a nice evening here with friendly, like-minded people.

Real beer bar. 17 taps. Draft beers change every week. I have no opinion about the food. Drink almost only the beers. Beer freak? To go!!!

Hundreds of different beers. Spoilt for choice.

Knowledge of beers, what to nibble on and an atmospheric ambiance... Everything this customer wants!

Great atmosphere, live music, delicious beer.

as befits a real brown pub, lots of Jesus, hundreds of types of beer, great service and old-fashioned conversations with the neighbors. I'll be back!

Be surprised by the unique atmosphere and spacious layout without a bar, where you can easily chat with other guests and make new friendships. The tap wall offers an extensive range of Trappist beers such as Chimay, Westmalle, La Trappe and Zundert, as well as abbey beers such as Ename, Ciney and St. Bernardus In addition to Trappist beers, the Lachende Monnik also has 17 (!) other brewers on tap, so there is something for everyone. For real enthusiasts, they have a selection of bottled Trappist beers, with the exception of the Westvleteren to respect the monks' wish not to sell it commercially. By enjoying a Trappist beer with them in their café, you also support the Sunday Foundation! So come by and taste the delicious beers for charity. They are all looking forward to welcoming you to the Laughing Monk! 🍻🎉

What a nice beer cafe, great diversity, super nicely decorated. Playing games while drinking beer is possible.

Great beers, great service, highly recommended!

Cozy pub with many types of tasty foreign beer. Top and worth a visit.

Nice brown pub with excellent specialty beers and hospitable employees

Tipys brown café! Very friendly and attentive service

The best beer cafe in Dordrecht with the most draft beers in the region and hundreds of varieties in cans and bottles😍

Nice tent, friendly service. Wide choice of special beers! Fun to play a game. Very friendly atmosphere

Very nice, small café. Here you can have a friendly chat in a warm atmosphere. About 250 special beers available. Don't tell everyone where it is located!

Super pub and bar in one, nice service and prices

A very cozy and nice café with a great choice of nice beers. Delicious snacks and great staff!

Delicious beers, good advice and nice staff!

Nicely decorated place, with a huge amount of beers. If you can walk out of this case in a straight line, you are doing something very right, or very wrong.

'Divine' atmosphere. Enthusiastic and alert service. Many games available for the enthusiast. Nice!

This is a great business in a beautiful location in Dordrecht. A real asset to the city. There is a nice selection of beers on tap and a very decent and varying range of canned and bottled beers. What strikes me is that the bill for all this beauty is also very reasonable for the quality you get. A colorful group comes to visit, in age and background, and there is no shortage of appeal. If that's what you're looking for - and what else are you looking for in a pub? - you are definitely in the right place here!

It is very atmospheric and cozy here. A wide range of Belgian beers. The service is nice and attentive. I hope to visit the Laughing Monk often.

Didn't eat anything but drank a delicious beer. Nice and friendly staff with knowledge

Friendly people and good beer. Actually 7 stars.

Leuke gezellige sfeervolle kroeg, waar je aan tafel bediend worst. Uitgebreide bierkaart!

Mooie zaak, personeel met veel kennis en kunde en uiteraard een breed assortiment aan heerlijke bieren!

Heerlijk biertje gedronken met kaasplankje erbij. Gezellige ambiance

Allerlei bieren om te proeven, eigenaar (Vincent) kent ze vrijwel allemaal en kan advies geven over welke past bij je smaak. Genoeg nootjes erbij :). Echt een bierlokaal.

Leuke plek om bier te proeven/ drinken en mensen te ontmoeten.

Toch uit nieuwsgierigheid een keer naar binnen gestapt. Een echt biercafe met een fantastisch en sfeervol interieur. Wel jammer dat je moeilijk overzicht krijgt van het assortiment. Personeelslid was nog niet goed ingewerkt, maar was erg vriendelijk en deed erg goed zijn best. De biertjes die ik gedronken had waren zeer speciaal en verrassend qua smaak. Ook het bittergarnituur is bovengemiddeld smaakvol.

Geweldige middag/avond, heerlijke biertjes en supergezellige tips & trucs van Merlin. Top gastheer! Zeker een aanrader

Prima keuze aan bier alleen bijna geen blond biertjes en een bord wat niet up to date was. Daarnaast kreeg ik het idee dat het personeel er niet op zit te wachten als je te veel vragen stelt over de biertjes. Wellicht op een andere dag nog een poging geven.

Хороше місце. Є вибір пива. Стиль хороший .

Gezellig biercafe. Alleen jammer dat je er geen thee kan krijgen. Als je als niet bierdrinker met iemand mee gaat.

Gezellig café waar veel beelden en andere dingen uit het rk geloof te vinden is. Leuke bijkomstigheid, het cafe is ook gezegend.

Topplek om een goed biertje te doen, ontspannen sfeer deskundige medewerkers die goed meedenken.

Absoluut een aanwinst voor Dordrecht.

Excellent huge selection of beer. A lot on tap and much more in bottles 😁 Nice staff and atmosphere 🙂 We will come back for sure! 🥰

Really nice place with perfect atmosphere. A lot of beers on tap and much more in cans and bottles. 😍🍻

Really nice place, when you visit Dordrecht, you must visit this place

Al een hele tijd langs gelopen/gefietst en niet naar binnen gelopen. Afgelopen zaterdag dus wel. Een kleine schatkamer aan bieren, wist NIET wat ik zag. Iets te enthousiast en "verdronken" in het assortiment en behoorlijk aangeschoten het kleine terrasje verlaten, voor mij voor herhaling vatbaar, 100%. Gezellige sfeer, er wordt ook iets over je bier verteld en ja de keuze is reuze. Zeer goede staf/bediening die net zo enthousiast waren als dat ik was. Toptent !

Echt eten kun je hier niet, hier heel veel verschillende lekkere biertjes met een plankje kaas, biteerballetje nuttigen, kun je hier wel.

Lovely place for traditional and especially Belgian beer lovers. The only improvement to the beer tap: replace Brand (Heinekken) beers by something decent. I was extremely surprised to learn that all the snacks were vegetarian (yey!). Incredible choice of bottle beers to all tastes in addition to 17 good quality tap beers!

Verborgen parel aan het begin (of eind) van de Voorstraat. Zoek je typische bourgondische gezelligheid, dan ben je hier aan het juiste adres!

Kort bezoekje. Erg sfeervol binnen. Drankje gedaan, toilet stop.

Goed bier, goede bediening met kennis van zaken.

Aanwinst voor de stad! Leuke tent, vriendelijk personeel, uitstekende bierkaart en lekker ruim. Ik ben fan.

Heerlijk laagdrempelig, gezellig. Geen harde muziek. Alleen beetje harde kerkbankjes. Kussentjes zouden niet verkeerd zijn.

Een zeer goed biercafé! En ook lekkere hapjes uit de frituur.
