The Monkey Wrench Postcard

4.5x6 Postcard

This building at 1025 Barret Avenue has seen many transformations, starting as an early neighborhood structure, before housing The Monkey Wrench. Known for its live music, rooftop patio, and southern-inspired food, The Monkey Wrench became a highlands staple until its closure in 2017. The venue then transformed into V-Grits, a vegan restaurant and brewery combo, which brought a fresh focus on plant-based dining to the area.

In 2020, V-Grits moved, and Awry Brewing moved in, opening in 2023. Today, Awry keeps the building's community spirit alive by hosting gatherings and events, honoring the building's long-standing role in the Highlands.
