Burp Castle is a beer bar located in the East Village neighborhood of Manhattan in New York City. It is ostensibly "monastery-themed" and they primarily serve a rotating tap of Belgian beers such as La Chouffe along with some bottles such as Chimay along some beers from other countries such as Germany and Britain. Bartenders occasionally wear monastic robes, play Gregorian chants, and patrons are shushed if they speak above a whisper. The bar is located near the site of the 2015 East Village gas explosion, which forced the bar's closure for several weeks.

SoundPrint, an app that measures noise produced in restaurants and bars, lists Burp Castle as a particularly quiet location.
