Events

The Monk’s Kettle is pleased to offer its facility to interested parties for private events, whether for Lunch or Dinner.  These events can be structured in almost any way necessary to meet your needs.  However, due to our very small size, total capacity is limited to 45 people, and requires renting out the entire space.

For booking, or to find out how Monk’s Kettle can meet your party’s needs, please contact Nat Cutler:
