Ginger Monkey Evenings are coming and they are bringing the cocktails!
If you love coming to our friendly local café Ginger Monkey Number 31, for the cosy vibes and an afternoon chill but are gutted that they close too soon…have we got news for you! 
Ginger Monkey 31 will open its doors for home-roasted coffee-inspired cocktail nights in the run up to Christmas.
An evening service, due to start this month, will create a unique experience for coffee lovers by combining some of their favourite flavours in cocktail form.
They will be staying open into the evenings to serve cocktails and craft beer until 10pm on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. With hopes of hosting some local artists for live music nights too.
Although the business only began roasting its own coffee in October last year, plans are already underway to expand with an independent roastery shop, offering unique career opportunities for locals keen to get into the world of coffee.
Ginger Monkey Number 31 will definitely be the new place you need to add to your list for an evening visit.
Their evening service will offer coffee-infused cocktails showcasing coffee beans from across the world, including East Africa, Uganda, China and South America, as well as Taste Cheshire members, gin makers Three Wrens Gin.
Run by husband and wife duo Hayley and Callum Hawthorne, the business recently won at our own awards a Bronze in the Family Friendly Venue.
Chester Racecourse, Taste Cheshire Food & Drink Awards 2022.

The couple serve up a range of hot drinks and food seven days a week, and as of Friday, November 25, their doors will be open for those looking for a festive evening tipple on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays.
Co-owner Hayley Hawthorne said: “We’re so excited to be opening our doors in the evenings so that the local community can enjoy our new delicious cocktails and craft beers. “We can’t wait to greet new customers and see our loyal regulars in the evenings. We promise to bring good vibes and we think that’s what everyone needs right now.”
