Michigan's first 7 Monks opened in Traverse City over Labor Day Weekend back in 2011. There were only "7" Trappist monasteries brewing beer at the time...hence our name. The name remains although the number of Trappist breweries continues to increase across the world. We've never been more proud to serve world class beer, fantastic food and offer an atmosphere where you can comfortably enjoy any of our offerings!

  
We have fifty-one rotating taps, over 100 craft bottles/cans, and a full bar.

  
Our Grand Rapids location opened its doors to a wonderful and welcoming community on April 21st, 2017.  
Cheers!
