Deep in the jungle, where the Cheeky Monkey was born, mealtimes were wild, messy, and oh-so-satisfying. Forget all this sitting down at tables and tiny portions nonsense. No, sirree! Here, food was shared in heaps, with every creature grabbing what they could. And that was the true origin of the platter! At least, that’s how our Chimp in Chief sees it.

Fast forward to today, and the Cheeky Monkey is keeping that jungle tradition alive at our award-winning gastropubs in Valletta and Qawra. We’re dishing up the best platters in Malta, perfect for sharing with your mates (or keeping all to yourself, no judgement here). Think piled-high nibbles and finger foods that are perfect to munch on over pints, cocktails, and conversations.

We don’t mess around with smelly cheese boards or fancy-schmancy hors d’oeuvres. No, our bar platters are stacked with the kind of grub that will make you drool and go back for seconds (or thirds!). Ready to dig in? Here’s a peek at our restaurant platters at Cheeky Monkey.

Cheeky Monkey Combo

This one’s for when you can’t decide, so why not have a bit of everything? We’re talking six juicy Voodoo wings, two loaded potato skins, four garlic bread slices, and a mountain of tortilla chips served with our signature Monkey Spice sauce. Ideal for sharing… or not!

Baboon Platter

Get ready for a feast fit for the wild! The Baboon platter comes stacked with four fall-off-the-bone BBQ ribs, four sliders that pack a punch, six BBQ chicken wings, garlic bread, and potato dippers. And of course, we’ll throw in our Monkey Spice sauce and BBQ sauce to really ramp up the flavours. A finger-licking good time, guaranteed!

Mandrill Platter

Feeling a little fancy but still want to go all-in on flavour? The Mandrill platter’s got you covered. You’ll get four hearty sliders, four pieces of golden fried halloumi, six crispy beer-battered onion rings, two mozzarella and chicken snowflakes, and two pork cigars. Dip them in our tangy Monkey Spice sauce and Jack Daniel’s sauce for the full taste-tastic experience.

Spider Monkey Platter

For those of you who love a bit of variety, the Spider Monkey platter is where it’s at. Sink your teeth into three chicken skewers, two pork spring rolls, four crunchy battered vegetables, and four juicy beef sliders. We’ll round it out with potato dippers and Sweet Chilli sauce for dipping delights.

Bonobo Platter

Calling all meat lovers! The Bonobo platter is an all-out meat feast that’s guaranteed to leave you full and satiated. We’re serving up BBQ sausage, a 150g grilled ribeye, 150g pork belly, 150g grilled chicken breast, and chimichurri sauce to tie it all together. Oh, and don’t forget the side salad and fries. Trust us, this is the platter for serious carnivores.

How About Extras?

Sometimes you just need to add a little something extra to make the platter truly perfect, and we’ve got you covered. Want cheesy fries? Done. Craving some chilli con carne? No problem. Maybe a heap of coleslaw or some crispy potato dippers on the side? We’ve got that too. And if you’re feeling adventurous, try our Cider and Stout sauces to take your taste experience to the next level of awesome. There’s no such thing as too much when it comes to making your platter just right for you and your crew!
