About This Place

Located on Range Rd 254 in the charming town of Beiseker, Alberta, Flying Monkey Airport Cafe stands out as a beloved local gem where hearty comfort food meets warm hospitality. Specializing in an array of satisfying dishes, this restaurant offers a menu that beautifully highlights classic favorites with a fresh, homemade twist that keeps guests coming back for more.

The cuisine here is all about rich, robust flavors with a focus on Canadian staples served with care and intention. Among the crowd favorites, the Fish and Chips takes center stage—crispy, golden-battered fish paired with perfectly seasoned fries, delivering a crispy crunch that melts into flaky, tender fish with every bite. For burger enthusiasts, the Rocky Mountain Burger is a true highlight: juicy 6oz Alberta beef patty, sandwiched in a freshly baked potato bun, adorned with melted cheddar, crisp lettuce, ripe tomato, tangy pickles, and their signature burger sauce that strikes a perfect balance of smoky and savory. Want to indulge even further? You can easily customize with bacon, guacamole, mushrooms, or even a gluten-free bun to tailor your burger experience.

For those who prefer a stacked masterpiece, the Monkey Mac Burger offers two smash-grilled patties layered with cheddar, shredded lettuce, pickles, and diced onion, creating a formidable flavor experience with every mouthwatering bite.

The dining atmosphere at Flying Monkey Airport Cafe is inviting and unpretentious, providing a cozy spot where locals and travelers alike feel welcomed as soon as they walk in. The spacious and clean setting offers comfortable seating and well-kept washrooms, making it ideal for families, groups, or solo diners looking to enjoy a satisfying meal in a relaxed environment.

Beyond the savory plates, the dessert menu is a delightful way to end your meal on a sweet note. Their New York Cheesecake, topped to your preference with whipped cream, chocolate, or caramel sauces, melts in your mouth with creamy decadence. Chocolate lovers will rejoice over the 6 Layer Chocolate Cake, a sumptuous slice that’s both moist and intensely rich, or the warm Triple Chocolate Brownie, especially heavenly when paired with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. For a tangy, elegant finish, the Limoncello Panna Cotta offers a silky, lemon-infused experience topped with vibrant raspberry coulis that dances on the palate.

What truly distinguishes Flying Monkey Airport Cafe is the care and craftsmanship evident in every dish, as echoed by glowing customer reviews. Chantel Lambe raves about the extraordinary portions and flavors that “go beyond anything I’ve ever had,” with a particular shout-out to the chicken wings and brownies that she couldn’t get enough of. Frequent visitor Christina Maria praises the house-made salads, dressings, soups, and sauces that add an authentic, homemade touch to every meal. Lise and Jake Fortier from Drumheller call their Reuben Sandwich “the absolute best in the west,” highlighting the fresh, toasted ciabatta bun packed with generous portions of meat, perfectly melted swiss, and harmonious layers of sauerkraut, dijon, and dill pickle.

Flying Monkey Airport Cafe harmonizes quality ingredients, generous portions, and friendly, personalized service that remembers not just your name but your preferences — a level of care rarely found in smaller communities. Whether you’re stopping in for a casual lunch, a relaxing dinner special, or an indulgent dessert, this spot delivers memorable dining that feels like a genuine culinary hug.

    This was the best restaurant I have ever been to. The portions, the atmosphere the quality and flavour in the food is beyond anything I’ve ever had. The quality and care they put into making this food truly goes a long way we were visiting from Ontario and we will absolutely be back for the chicken wings!!! Ate too fast to take any pictures. If they have the brownie, definitely get it!!! Biggest portions you could definitely split anything.

    I eat here very frequently. The food is consistently very good and the portion sizes are generous. Staff remember your name and your preferences. One of the things that I really like about eating here is that the salad dressings, soups, sauces and pastas are made in house. The dinner special of the evening is always really good. I’m really grateful to have this great restaurant in such a small town.

    Excellent food and service. The lunch menu is primarily sandwiches, they all seem to be great choices with many options. I have yet to try the supper menu. Nothing fancy for the building itself, but it has nice large washrooms and the place is clean. Plenty of parking available.

    Just the wife and I we ordered shrimp scampi, crispy fried mushrooms and each had a chopped Italian sandwich. I loved all of it!! I will certainly be a regular. Can't wait to try the take out pizza!

    This hidden gem is a must visit when near Beiseker. We booked a table for 11 friends we were camped with. Everyone loved the food. Generous portions allowed us to have take-out for another meal. Excellent food and service. Highly recommend!

    A hidden gem that completely exceeded every expectation. Tucked away with classic diner charm, this spot delivers food that easily rivals fine dining. We ordered a little bit of everything and I genuinely can’t pick a favourite. The wings were flawlessly crisp with bold + addictive flavour. The steak bites were melt in your mouth tender with a beautiful crisp edge, bathed in luscious cowboy butter. The pappardelle & meatloaf and gravy was unbelievably rich and comforting…that gravy deserves its own award. The meatloaf and mashed potatoes tasted homemade but elevated with incredible depth of flavour and quality. The burger was perfectly juicy and well seasoned, the kind you can tell was made with care. And just when I thought it couldn’t get better, dessert arrived. The brownie was decadent and gooey with the perfect crust with chocolate chips and the cake was the perfect sweet finale to an already unforgettable meal. This place is pure culinary comfort with heart and soul in every bite. It’s the restaurant I’ll dream about when I’m back home in Ontario, the kind of food that stays with you long after the last forkful. No pics; ate too fast!
