Roman Catholic answer: The similarity is that they are both religious (in the Catholic church this is a technical term to differentiate from lay). They have dedicated their lives to God, and are both under vows or promises. Most friar take the three vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience. Most monks take three vows of stability, conversion of manners and obedience. Monks are usually bound to a particular monastery, whereas friars are bound to an Order or group of religious. Both of them are single celibates, both of them pray regularly as provided by their Holy Rule and both of them have a distinctive habit.

Yes. There is Friar Lawrence and Friar John in Romeo and Juliet, and Friar Peter, Friar Thomas and Friar Francis in Measure for Measure, in which the Duke disguises himself as a monk. There is a Friar Patrick mentioned in the Two Gentlemen of Verona, who fulfils the same function as Friar Lawrence in Romeo and Juliet, although we do not see him.
