About The Bearded Monk
Welcome to The Bearded Monk, the bottle shop and growler bar that brings all our favorite beers, ciders, seltzers, meads and wines to one place in the town we love.
The Bearded Monk is a bar in Denton, Texas. It is listed at 122 E McKinney St, Denton, TX 76201, which places it among the local businesses of Denton that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by. Besides its main category, the business also describes itself as beer garden, pub, wine bar, so it may cover more than the name suggests.
This group covers the non-Asian restaurants, cafes, bars and food businesses that also appear in a mixed-cuisine food scene, including American diners, pizza, Mexican food, burgers, steakhouses and bakeries. Standard US restaurant norms apply: lunch and dinner service with a quieter stretch between, cards and tap-to-pay accepted almost everywhere, and a tip of 15-20% customary for table service. Fast food and quick-service counters expect payment up front and tipping is optional. Bars check ID for anyone who looks under 30, and the drinking age is 21 nationwide. Many restaurants in this group take reservations online through third-party platforms, while casual and fast-food spots are walk-in only. Sales tax is added at the register on top of the menu price and varies by city and state, so the final total is usually a few percent higher than the posted prices suggest.
The business lists hours on 6 days of the week. Typical hours are 12β10 pm. Note that it does not open on Monday. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm.

Denton is in Texas, in the South, where summers are hot and humid, winters are short, and severe storms in spring are a fact of life; businesses run air conditioning most of the year and many open early to beat the heat. Getting around Denton is easiest by car; street parking is metered in busy downtown areas, and most suburban businesses have their own lot. Ride-share apps such as Uber and Lyft operate across Texas's larger cities, and public transit varies from extensive to minimal.

The vibe is amazing, plus with the food trucks and small restaurants near you can grab food and bring it in to enjoy with their amazing draft selections and custom creations both boozy and not. They have "baked" mixes too. Weds, there are bring your craft nights. Very cool. The Gen X bartender was fun for us Gen X guests, and just as sarcastically funny. Make sure to look for Gary.

Great for a small group, and a perfect lgbtq+ friendly lounge. It's an open floorplan and I didnt see live music or live music, but I know on some nights there are events with bigger turn outs. There is a spacious outdoor area with bar tops and stools, as well as picnic tables. It's dog friendly which is a huge plus for my gf and I, and they offer non-alcoholic and thc drinks as well.

I absolutely love Bearded Monk! I often come to just sit and have a pour or two sitting on their very comfortable chairs and reading a book. A no pressure establishment with excellent decor, friendly bartenders and local artwork. Such a soothing vibe. π»

We love The Bearded Monk! I am not a beer person, which I know is crazy because they truly have so many different beer options, but their cocktails are some of my favorite in Downtown Denton! The Monk is my go to (I literally find myself thinking about this drink sometimes, it's that good), followed by the Denton Yapper. Their Green Tea and Dragon's Blood shots are also fantastic! The bartenders have been so helpful and fun each time we've been and we love the overall atmosphere. Everyone is always just having a good time and enjoying themselves! They are a truly inclusive space and don't shy away from making that clear, which makes me more than happy to spend my money and time there! So glad to have them in our town and community!

Incredible queer bar in Denton that serves awesome drinks varied between lots of different beers, wines, THCA non-alcoholic options, caffiene, and sodas! I LOVE THE BEARDED MONK! They have amazing events, you should come to the The SlideShow every end-of-the-month, and there's often many community events happening here and parties every weekend with different cool themes. Lesbian/sapphic specific nights which are SO important, and they are trans-friendly and trans-inclusive at all events they run. Their bathrooms are genderless and there's an entire QUEER ART SHOW on the walls all throughout the rest of Spring - Summer 2026 til the end of Pride Month 2026 (June)! It's well worth a visit to this treasure of a community-space. <3 OH, and if you need a place to get into a third space mindset, bring your unfinished crafts for WIP Wednesdays and crafting nights!
