MONKI

Monki in Inglewood

Come get breakfast in calgary’s oldest & boldest neighbourhood!

Be it a weekend family outing, business lunch or a brunch date, enjoy a fulfilling breakfast dining experience in Calgary’s Inglewood.

Monki Breakfast Club & Bistro Inglewood

From The Beltline to Inglewood

For almost 6 years since opening our original Beltline joint, ‘Small space, long waits’ was the most frequent complaint we continued to receive. We could only address this by expanding into a new location – at a neighbourhood that fits the ‘Monki mantra’ – innovation, collaboration & community. Where else would that be besides Inglewood! Our Inglewood breakfast club was opened in April 2019.

About Inglewood

Located just east of downtown Calgary, Inglewood nurtures a culturally rich community of local artists, musicians, boutiques, eateries, breweries attracting locals & tourists alike. The neighbourhood boasts iconic live music destinations like the Blues Can and Ironwood Stage and hosts a variety of festivals aimed at promoting local artists & businesses such as Jazz YYC, Sunfest, Fringe Festival & Mid Winter Film Festival. Furthermore, Inglewood is a popular family attraction with its proximity to Calgary Zoo, St. Patrick’s Island Park, East Village & the Fort Calgary Histroic Park.

Parking

In Inglewood, Parking is predominantly free & relatively easy to find. You will be able to park for free (2 hours) along our block on 9th avenue SE or in the nearby streets – 11th, 12th, 13th or 14th. Being of course incredibly cyclist friendly, the neighbourhood is fitted with bike racks throughout the Main Street (9th Ave) and adjacent streets.

Planning Your Brunch Visit

With a capacity of almost double our Beltline location, our Inglewood breakfast club offers a comfortable, spacey & family friendly dining experience in Calgary. We aren’t accepting reservations due to our limited seating. If you plan to walk-in during the weekend, you may experience a wait-time. You can instead skip the wait & ‘Get in Line’ virtually on your phone. We will then simply notify you when to make your way!.

Enjoy a delicious start to your day by getting breakfast in Calgary’s artsiest neighbouhood!

Absolutely delicious! It's a great brunch place, the food is fantastic, the staff are always attentive, I love this place. The Inglewood location is bigger than the 10th Ave location, but great experience at both.

Amazing gourmet breakfast at Monki! My wife had a chai and I drank drip coffee which were both high quality. For food I had the salmon benedict which was outstanding and my wife had eggs, waffles, and hash browns which all were divine. Great service too!

I have had an amazing experience at Monki Breakfast Club & Bistro in Inglewood today ☺️The interior is modern and cozy, making it a perfect spot to relax. Despite its simple exterior, the ambiance is inviting, and the friendly staff really make you feel welcome.I tried the special offer breakfast with asparagus, spinach, poached eggs, and bacon, and it was delicious—definitely one of the healthiest breakfast options in Calgary. Highly recommend this gem for anyone looking for a great meal ✨

Food came very quickly and was delicious! My server, Odie was incredible and anticipated my needs (water refilled before I had to ask, and waited until I had swallowed my food before asking me how it tasted, etc). Loved her.😍

Moki is a cozy, modern spot with fantastic brunch options. I absolutely loved the Bacon Eggs Benedict perfectly poached eggs and creamy hollandaise. It was one of the best I’ve had!The service was quick and friendly. Whether you're into classics like pancakes or unique dishes, Moki’s got something for everyone. A must-visit for brunch lovers!

My girlfriend found this place to eat. I will say that at first I thought she picked here because it was close to the zoo and that’s what we were planning to go do today. Little did I know that the quality of food I had was amazing.The eggs were some of the best eggs I had and the hashbrowns had an interestingly sweet seasoning on them that just worked somehow. Not to mention my gf’s waffle dish looked amazing.The only downside I would give is that your bill for two will easily surpass $40-$50 depending on your order so it’s a bit pricey for an everyday experience. But, definitely worth it as treat every once in a while.

Good quality is amazing as usual. Service is also fantastic. Unfortunately, some insects keep flying around, otherwise it would be 💯 experience

We wanted to try out breakfast places in Idlewood which identifed as a cultural centre for Calgary. There was a lot of colourful and individual shops and restaurants on the 'Music Mile' and so we looked at reviews and saw that Monki was listed as worth visiting. The location was great, we walked from our hotel in downtown Calgary's East Village (about a 25 min walk) and we got there about 10am. The food was fresh and delicious, the service was excellent, friendly and fast. It was busy and not packed, we didn't have to wait for a table and the servers were very attentive.

2nd time of going. I love the unusual combinations of food, the chef does a great job. Very filling food too, more than enough on your plate to satisfy the hungriest of peeps....
