I was in heaven and I was even given a sample of delicious flan. So many pretty cakes and I intend on going back soon. I bought an amazing slice of non-spillable "tres Leche cake" Fire The service was PERFECT AMBIENCE: FESTIVE read more

I can only speak to their food in this review as I was fortunate to find 2 of their products in my local grocery store. I purchased the Wedding cookies and the Orjietas (butter palmiers). Both were fantastic! The wedding cookies tasted like homemade- light, fresh, and lots of powdered sugar. The palmiers were light and crispy with that crunchy sugar on the outside. I made a special trip back to the store and bought all they had! I will definitely seek out a trip to the bakery next time I'm in town. read more

The traditional vanilla concha was good, the bread was soft! The lavender concha was extra sweet. It tasted like a regular concha and then there was added hard icing on top. It was too sweet for my taste. Service was not really memorable, the guy was just taking our order and quick with us. My coffee was bland and there is an extra charge for alternative milk. I had the cafe de Carmen- I did not like my drink at all. My husband ordered the cafe Oaxaca and it was good!! I would recommend that drink. Over all, this is not a location I would return to. read more

I am super impressed with the level of customer service that I experienced. I have been looking for maritozzi everywhere. La Monarca has bolitas de pan and I figured that I could cheat and fill the bread with whipped cream. Yeimi went above and beyond to help me make this happen. Gracias Yeimi! My 3 shot latte was delicious and the churro cinnamon roll was a delight. read more

As soon as we walked in we were greeted & this really nice lady offered us samples of some new concha's Monarca has. She took our order she was very professional and polite which is always a plus for me! I did purchase a few of the new concha's to try them out and a matcha with strawberry foam. The bakery does have a sitting area inside and outside. It's very clean and cozy enough to have a nice coffee chat lol read more

It was late on a Thursday night and my family and I were craving Mexican sweet bread. We noticed that this bakery was open after an afternoon of shopping at the Citadel Outlets. The bakery is large, very clean and was fully stocked. The employees were very polite and friendly and immediately acknowledged us as we entered The choices were plentiful and the prices were reasonable. The bread was a tad on the hard side but very tasty. I will stop by again if and when I am in the area read more

I scheduled an order for a dozen Pan Dulce in celebration for my coworker's birthday yesterday, 7/3/2024 at 7:15AM. The order came right on time and the pastries were fresh in a catering box. Dozen Pan Dulce - $29.40 (price via Postmates July 2024) Includes: 4 mini conchas, 2 Danes, 2 cinnamon rolls, 2 taquitos, and 2 plain cuernitos - The pastries looked and tasted so delicious! - The taquitos, cinnamon roll, cuernitos had this ASMR crunch when you bit/cut into them. They lean on the sweeter side, but paired with coffee for a delicious pairing. - I also tried one the mini conchas, and it did lean a little more on the drier side but still so tasty. - Absolutely no complaints from my coworkers - they all got to enjoy and try them! - To my sweet surprise (not sure if it was a mistake or them being kind), they actually included an extra cinnamon roll, which is my favorite! I had to recount my box like 2x since it was early in the morning but I was definitely happy to see this sweet gesture! Thank you so much La Monarca! I'll definitely be back to try out more drinks and baked goods! read more

This location is incredible!!! The staff is INCREDIBLY kind! They gave us a few samples of treats, which were all so good. The flavored conchas were amazing. We also got Iced Cafe Oaxaca drinks and the Mollete Tradicional (beans and cheese on bread). Highly recommend all! Bathrooms were very clean and restaurant itself very clean as well. Also LOVE that they have signs for what all the cookies and cakes are! (The South Pasadena location doesn't, which I never understood why not.) Definitely recommend this location! Check it out! Prices are great too! read more

Excelente servicio calidad y variedad en las bebidas el café riquísimo además tienen programa de recompensas

Right when you walk in you get greeted immediately, I don't come often to la monarca so when asking about all the cakes(they have a lot) the worker had no problem telling me which was which, which was very nice. The place is clean and the cakes were delicious. If you're looking for something not too sweet, try the Dulce de leche cake! read more

Super friendly and amazing people work here!!! The tres leches cake is so delicious and moist.

El iced horchata latte estaba mal preparado, se sentia muy aguado y sus panes estaban viejos

Very good I love that they have unique blend of different coffees and flavors. I would highly recommend coming back here. There's so much more I would like to try. I did not get the sweet breads or anything to eat but the coffee itself was excellent just being different from everyone else is what makes me more likely to come back. Location was clean and staff was friendly offering recommendations read more

I absolutely love their cafe de olla! It's always a hit whenever it's brought to the office. I got their mini conchas today and they were pretty standard. The bread was still soft and it wasn't dry. The bakery has a ton of items to choose from and gifts to purchase too. I decided to preorder my items online the night before. When I got to the store, they had no idea about my order. I definitely do not recommend to preorder online because they probably won't bother checking their system. I would recommend calling the store instead. read more

I love this place, always fresh Specially their birthday cakes and conchitas. The service is amazing read more

Loved this place! Everything was fresh and delicious. They have a self serve pan area where you grab a tray and grab whatever you desire then they'll package it up for you at the counter. They have some prepackaged options like I got that is a little faster when you're short on time. The service was fast and friendly. My Mollete was made to order and was delicious. Pretty spacious cafe but not many tables for seating. They also have a cake counter with plenty of options. Will definitely be coming here again! read more

Pulled up last night (jan 26) between 7-8pm and asked for a small hot oaxacan, but the girl working said they only had large. I asked for water too but she said they don't have cups, only tiny ones and I said that was fine. This whole ordeal happened in Spanish by the way. I waited 15 mins in the empty lobby for my drink and had to ask the other older woman for my water. She asked the initial girl if i ordered water as if it would've been a problem if I didn't order it with her. The other girl told her that she had told me they only had tiny cups, and immediately after, the older woman tells me they have no cups at all. I asked if they could serve me water in a regular cup they use for drinks and she told me they'd have to charge which I was 100% okay with! She grabbed a cup, took it to the back, took her time back there and I notice she was talking to ANOTHER girl who seemed to be the manager. The older woman saw that I noticed her and came back and said "so do you want water in a small cup or a regular cup" ??? So they have small water cups now..? I told her I'll take a regular cup and paid the dollar willingly to just get out of there. The large hot oaxacan? HOT GARBAGE! The oat milk was oversteamed and the drink overall just tasted burnt. Mind you, I only wanted water but bought a drink as a courtesy and have been wanting to try this place out for a while now. Too bad! read more

Question: Why is everything so small? All the baked goods are tiny, cookies are super tiny, but you charge the same as full size. Lower your prices or make your stuff larger like the rest of the bakeries. read more

Customer service is spotty. The young lady who came off as new was sweet but the older lady came off as tired of her job. This place had a great selection of things to choose from. Definitely will be back at least once to try more coffee and breakfast options. But their rewards policy needs to change. I redeemed my points for a free specialty coffee and the older lady make an issue when I thought it was for any size after I ordered a large and they served me a small. I didn't like that. read more

This place is so good. Coffee and pastries are always on point. I love that I can order online and pick up my order before work. Only downside is I feel the pan dulce is a little expensive compared to other places but oh well. Cafe de Olla is delicious and I like to buy the grounds so I can make a pot at work. The grounds are a little on the expensive side as well. So I only grab a bag when I have extra cash. But the taste is so good I can't complain. read more

Super service. Nice people all around. Come try the cuernitos on an early morning. They also give free samples of pies!!!

I love the cafe de olla here, it's perfect. Their pan dulce is also pretty good. I prefer going to a local panaderia, but the options here are good ones. The dulce de leche croissant is my favorite. They also have whole cakes, cake slices and flan. I'm not a big fan of their cakes because they use whipped cream frosting but most people seem to prefer them. read more

Moletta - not an item to take to go. The bread will get soggy (unless you enjoy that) As a to go this item will not retain the temperature. We ate this in the car because it would get cold if we waited. However, the Moletta is a nice idea for a quick bite recommendation served (dine in) Tenza- Unfortunately today, Saturday 9:20am this might have been an off day. I tried the ham, cheese, and jalapeño. While I love this item and have had this at even donut shops. The dough wasn't flakey and more doughy. The filling was cold after asking for it to be heated. I loved the taste and that didn't disappoint. Very clean location and friendly customer service. Easy to go in and out without such a wait. read more

I love going in the morning's for their coffee and breakfast. They have great costumer service.

I tried a variety of pan dulce and an Oaxaca latte. Everything was delicious. Also bought a box of assorted cookies to take to my office and everyone raves about them! Definitely going to go again when I'm in the area. read more
