Best coffee in the city. Hands down. The staff is great, location is perfect. Don't change please

friendly staff and great service - my girlfriend and I ordered a cortado and a hot cocoa. the hot cocoa was delightfully consistent from top to bottom, and the cortado had the best texture of any cortado I've had. their beans are clearly rested to perfection, and I couldn't ask any more of a specialty shop. read more

Super cute shop with limited seating inside. There are a couple seats out front too though. The shop is in like the middle of a plaza and the parking wraps around it. It was pretty packed when I got there on a Saturday morning but we got lucky and found a spot near the entrance. I think there's also a parking structure if the lot gets full I like that this place also offers a Vietnam vs Manhattan blend so you can decide how strong you want the coffee to be Furious george: 5/5 got this with the Vietnam blend. Surprisingly the coffee flavor wasn't too strong for me. I also liked that the banana flavor wasn't artificial Also liked the pandan with the Vietnam blend. Not as sweet as the other ones that I've had and more nutty read more

I wanted a quick fix for my matcha cravings so I decided to come here since there were great reviews. Upon arriving, the server was extremely welcoming & friendly! He took his time in explaining the drinks to us with their respective options. I decided to go with their most expensive matcha ($8.95) since I am very particular with the quality. I waited around 10 minutes before receiving my drink. The drink was a vibrant green & appeared very promising. Upon my first sip, all I tasted was milk. I was quite disappointed. I didn't get the matcha taste that I was looking for. I was expecting more since it was their best matcha. I don't think I would come back again for their matcha, although their customer service was great. read more

Always on the lookout for cafes to try and leaflet popped up on the radar! So glad we made the time to stop by (though check their hours as they close in the afternoon). Ordered the furious George and my girlfriend got the mocha! We loved both and got the Vietnam and Manhattan espressos respectively! I'm curious how different the mahattan would have made it though. The inside of the cafe has a super cozy vibe - lots of wood and plants - def worth a check out if you're in Monterey Park! read more

Cute little spot with unique options! I got the Kagoshima matcha which was solid (rich, balanced, moderate astringency according to their menu). I personally prefer a higher matcha to milk ratio, but it was still solid! I appreciated the other matcha options to choose from (i.e. Kyoto, Okumidori), which made it a fun experience rather than having one standard matcha option. There is a parking lot but it may take a few rounds to find parking sometimes. Friendly staff. read more

Staff is very friendly and helpful Has about 5 tables inside to sit and chat with friends. Some seating on the outside as well. I got the 2 shots of espresso, sweetened with brown sugar, jasmine flavor and your choice of milk (Lactose free 2% as default) I got the viet blend for my coffee and it was mild and wasn't sure strong. You have two options of beans for your coffee. One is stronger than the other and the barista will advise you of the difference. I can taste the coffee and the jasmine tea notes, which was very refreshing and pleasant. read more

Was driving through the area and looking for my morning coffee and decided to stop here. Leaflet has some amazing flavor combos to choose from. I ultimately decided on the "furious George" which is a banana and vanilla latte. I love the ability to customize your drink. I was able to adjust sweetness, milk, and even pick which of the espresso roasts I wanted. They explained to me the difference between the two and how the roast impacts the flavors in the drink. I went with the Vietnam roast which brings more of the flavor out in the banana. I also dropped my sweetness down to 50% and it was perfect! Not too sweet but the banana comes through. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. The space is cute, but small. Not great for large groups to congregate and hang out but enough space to sit and enjoy your drink with a friend or two or to do some light work or studying. There is parking all around, including a structure in the back. I found a 15 min spot just on the side. I'll be back here for sure. read more

Leaflet Coffee House - Furious George (50% sweetness, Vietnam roast, almond milk) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Monterey Park, California

Leaflet Coffee & Tea House in Monterey Park is such an aesthetically cute spot. The space feels cozy and thoughtfully designed, making it a great place to relax, catch up with a friend, or just enjoy a drink in a calm atmosphere. One thing that really stood out to me was the staff. Everyone here was incredibly friendly and helpful, which made the experience feel even more welcoming. You can definitely tell that their specialty is the matcha drinks. They seem to put a lot of care into them, and that's clearly what they're known for. I did try the Le Vie En Rose Latte, and unfortunately it was a little disappointing. I was expecting more of a rose flavor, but it mostly just had dried rose petals on top and I couldn't really taste the rose in the drink itself. Overall, it's still a very cute café with great service, and if you're a matcha lover it's probably a great spot to check out. read more

This is a very underrated coffee shop in the Monterey Park area! Conveniently located on Atlantic Blvd with nearby food, bookstores, and shops along the street, this coffee shop has accessible parking spaces. The shop itself is small and has suitable seating for their size but has a relaxed and comfortable environment that makes you want to come back. I have visited this shop multiple times, trying their different coffee/matcha options and I was always pleasantly surprised. I love their blend of simple and creative options that make you intrigued to try them based on the names (e.g., Furious George)! Their coffee and matcha is the perfect way to start your day or in the middle of the day as a sweet treat. They have available pastry items including different croissants (i.e., original, ham and cheese) if you would like to add into your purchase. Their personnel are always friendly, greeting you as soon as you enter the door with a smile and bright energy. They never fail to answer any questions we may have and provide us with their best sellers and personal opinions on the drinks - which are useful to newcomers who have never tried their drinks. Definitely recommend to anyone looking to support smaller businesses and for those looking for good coffee! read more

Cozy spot for coffee and matcha! I ordered the Luxurious George which can be likened to a banana jasmine matcha latte. The average pricing is $7-8/drink for their specialty lattes. The drink was not too sweet and had a good jasmine flavor, though the banana flavor was light. There are a handful of tables, but with strong wifi, outlets available, and the music (indie/folk) was at the perfect volume. Service was friendly and prompt. Parking is readily available in the plaza. I'd definitely return to try the rest of their interesting menu! read more

This is a hidden gem coffee shop in the SGV. I appreciate the fact that we went on a Sunday morning and there's still plenty of indoor seating. I also must say that the inside is very cute. With their array of drinks, the barista was very kind and guided me what kind of drink I would enjoy the most. I ended up getting the Luxurious George and highly enjoyed my drink. My friend got the Blue Butterfly and she also enjoyed her drink. I would go back and try more drinks they offer! read more

Looks very nice & relaxing inside! Workers were all real nice and ran through the menu with us! Matcha lovers should try this place out but definitely plenty on the menu to try! We ordered the matcha latte with honey added & la vie en rose latte. They have different matchas to choose from based on your preference & you can adjust sweetness on your drinks which is always a huge plus! Will definitely come again to try all of the other drinks! read more

We came here on a recent Saturday based on the amazing yelp reviews. This coffee house is definately not as aesthetic as some of the ones popping up everywhere but the customer service and the coffee makes up for the more basic interior. Interesting fact about the plaza where this shop is housed is also home to about 20 nail places. read more

I tried the okumidori matcha latte w/ oat milk, less sweetened w brown sugar as the worker recommended. Not sure why a sweetner is an added charge.. It is described as a umami, creamy note and I could appreciate the lightness yet umami of the matcha, though it was helpful they have a sheet of paper to show the different matchas they offer/customizations. I enjoyed the quality and would love to try their more nutty matcha next. Is a cute little shop with limited seating, so it is more of a grab&go spot, but glad I got to try it. read more

I ordered the Furious George ($7.75 - iced). It's a banana & vanilla cafe latte with one floating banana chip. Sadly, I still felt sleepy after drinking it. Its caffeine is weak; the banana and vanilla taste are very faint; and this liquid is more comparable to a milky, chill tea. I arrived at Leaflet Coffee House (Monrovia Park) on Wednesday (around 10:58AM). Parking is surprisingly easy. There's several 15 minute green parking spots nearby. Also, there's a large parking structure in its plaza. Concerning service, Leaflet Coffee House (Monrovia Park) is surprisingly stellar and distinct. Staff felt extremely friendly as they spoke softly with a regular, bright smile. I can easily imagine customers submitting "Five Stars" for only its lovely service. I ordered the Furious George ($7.75 - iced). It took three minutes for completion. Fairly quick. As mentioned, I did not enjoy my Furious George. It lacks utility while also tasting somewhat bland. It's like "coffee" for people who dislike coffee. The drink is not bitter nor coarse; rather, its liquid felt more comparable to milk tea. Strangely enough, this beverage's crunchy banana chip was the highlight since it carried actual flavor. Regarding ambiance, Leaflet Coffee House (Monrovia Park) is exemplary. Despite its small location and dingy plaza, this small business felt like a college student's cherished secret. This location had airy ventilation, customer wifi with password, & several electric wall sockets to charge devices. It's also very clean as light upbeat pop music plays. The location is also gorgeous as its flowers cascade near its ceiling. I also appreciated the cold water station by the counter. Unfortunately, my biggest gripe will be the lack of indoor restroom; they only offer a restroom key for the parking garage's restroom. Regardless, the pleasant & welcoming ambiance at Leaflet Coffee House (Monrovia Park) is a big strongpoint. Overall, Leaflet Coffee House (Monrovia Park) offers outstanding service and ambiance. However, its Furious George ($7.75) is very disappointing with its bland taste and weak caffeine. Still, if you're a college student searching for a place to study, I recommend. 4.4 out of 5 read more

My go-to matcha spot in the SGV! I love hanging out here whether it's alone or with friends and enjoying their iced matcha lattes. My favorite so far has been the Chiran matcha latte. I love getting it with oat milk, simple syrup, half sweet. Perfection! Everyone that works here is also soooo nice. Very welcoming place overall and the vibes are chill. Sometimes it gets a little warm in there on hot days and they don't always have the AC on high but otherwise, very nice place to hang out for a bit. Seating is limited - inside, there's about four tables for 2 people and two spots for if you have a slightly bigger group (like if you need to accommodate 4-5 people, I'd say.) They also have a few tables out front too. Every time I come, it seems popular as a place to just grab your drink and go so seating is usually available. Lucky for me because I love spending time here reading, drawing, or catching up on my hobonichi with my drink! Great place, great matcha, great people! Can't wait to go back :) read more

Wanted to find a coffee spot with tables and WiFi and found this one with good reviews. Came on a Saturday morning and luckily not all the tables were occupied. Most were because people were waiting for their drinks to be made. There were some solid choices and everything sounded interesting to try, but I ended up picking the La Vie En Rose with 2% lactose free milk and medium light roast. Appreciate that they have lactose free! Drink took a few minutes as there were a few other orders before mines including some mobile or phone orders too. Drink came out perfectly with just enough caffeine and the rose flavor. Kinda pricey for $7.75 drink but I guess coffee is around this price these days. Plenty of spaces for parking including a structure in the back of the plaza, but like others mentioned the bathroom is elsewhere .. not inside the shop. Love how there are a few tables for you to sit and work with outlets and WiFi. A few outside tables as well. Will be coming back to check out their other drinks and pastries. read more

I really wanted to gatekeep this place but...alas... it's too good to keep a secret. Leaflet has the best matcha latte in all of SGV. They have 3 matcha options, each from different cultivars. My favorite is the okumidori, which only comes in a short size. If you're unsure of what to order, definitely ask the staff working! They're super helpful and very friendly. What stands out at Leaflet, besides the matcha quality, is the amount of ways you can customize your matcha. Personally, I prefer it half sweet with simple syrup. If you're dining in, they'll even put your drink in a glass cup which is a classy touch. I do recommend staying for a bit, reading a nice book, because the tables never really fill up even though it's a small space. There's also outdoor seating (no shade though) if you'd rather take your drink outside. Don't sleep on Leaflet!!!! read more

I didn't even know we had a cute coffee shop like this in Monterey Park! I just walked in because I had a doctor's appointment nearby. The workers were nice and welcoming and my cappuccino was perfect! I saw they have a bunch of specialty drinks so might get one of those next time. Cappuccino tends to be my go to order so my baseline for judging cafes-- and they did really well! Will be back! read more

This is a good coffee spot. Im usually indecisive when it comes to coffee but the lady helping me out gave me many suggestions.

I do think next time I would add more flavor and another shot to help making it a bit stronger. read more

Heard this was a top 10 coffee shop in LA , so I was vert excited to try it. I tired the Lavender Days and Into the London Fog lattes. Both of these drinks were exceptional; exactly what you expect them to taste like. The Lavender Days is a lavender matcha latte and it was made perfectly. Lavender and matcha notes stood out but held their own without overpowering one another. The Into the London Fog latte was amazing , I never tasted a latte like it. Cold-brewed earl grey and a vanilla black tea is such a good mix. The service was good , orders were taken fast and drinks were also made fast but with care! The inside is nice , a smaller coffee shop that is inviting and doesn't overwhelm you. Seating is available inside with some seats outside! Overall , would absolutely love to come back and try their other drinks! read more

This little place is always busy in the mornings, I went this morning and got a V for vanilla iced latte. You do have to wait a few minutes to get your coffee, but it's all made fresh when you order and just how you like it. You choose your milk and your sweetness. The ambience is small, but people do sit in there and have meetings and do some work. I will definitely be back. read more

Really cute cafe tucked away in a strip mall in Monterey Park. There's a few tables for studying, along with bench seating. The atmosphere was pretty quiet, but I assume it was finals week at East Lac. I got the La Vie en Rose with 25% sugar and oat milk. It was delicious! The rose flavor was light, so I think 50% sugar would've enhanced it more. Rose is such a strong flavor, so I was happy with how it was and its contrast with the bitterness of the coffee. Service was friendly and fast. Parking can be an issue as the lot is small. I would love to come back and try more of their drinks. read more

This place doesn't have a restroom inside; they mentioned that there is a public restroom outside - but it was locked and dirty (also sketch). read more

Very cute and cozy cafe with a decent amount of parking and seating for studying/hanging out with friends! They also have some pastries like croissants and croissant sandwiches. What struck me the most about this spot was how friendly and helpful the staff was. They took the time to answer questions and make suggestions and were flexible with adjusting the drink's sweetness. My black tea latte was very good and the milled black tea gave it a unique flavor that reminded me of rice milk a bit. Prices are a little expensive ($7.75 for a tea latte) but it's a small business and the customer service is friendly, so I was fine with it. read more

Leaflet is always such a pleasant place to visit and to get coffee! The drinks are amazing, delicious, and has a variety of flavors. They are always consistent with a lot of quality and attention to detail. The thing I enjoy the most is the service. The workers here are always so friendly and nice! They are super courteous and helpful if you need anything or have any questions. One time I was in a hurry and called in to place an order - they were ready when I got there so I managed to get in and out with no issues, and I greatly appreciate them for that! The place is very nice and calming if you want to stay there to work and enjoy your coffee. Leaflet is a must visit if you like coffee! read more

I'm surprised by the amount of traffic this tiny coffee shop gets on a Wednesday morning! I appreciated how warm and welcoming the barista was. There was space to sit outside and I took advantage of the cloudy and cool day by sitting outside. The inside is quite small but there's still space to sit. Nearly all of the patrons of this spot were grab & go so I think there's slight potential for this spot to be your next study/work spot. Luxurious George (3.5) The name grabbed my attention but the drink was alright. It's a banana jasmine matcha latte, with the jasmine flavor being light and the banana being very very light. It really allows for the matcha flavor to shine through, however I felt that it could have been something more. I wasn't super impressed by the drink but I will definitely be back to give their coffee a shot since they seem to be popular for a reason! Garlic croissant (4.5) I gobbled this up real quick. It was savory from the garlic butter and sweet from the light spread of cream cheese. It's hard not to love a sweet and savory croissant at 8 in the morning. read more

We got the Dear Jasmine and Luxurious George drinks. Dear Jasmine 8/10 It has a nice Jasmine floral flavor and was also perfectly sweet with the brown sugar. Refreshing and not too overpowering flavor of Jasmine. Luxurious George 7/10 It has a milky aftertaste and a slightly strong taste of banana. If you really like bananas, this one is for you. The service was quick and friendly as we got our order. Interior is cute with hanging origami and lots of lavender colored decor. There are some tables and chairs perfect for studying and having a chill hangout with a friend or two. Will come back for more drinks! read more

I was a tad confused on the parking situation when I arrived but I was lucky that it was very early in the AM and it was not full. There are many small businesses in the area so I could imagine this being pretty packed had I came at a different time. It is a cute little shop with seating inside, there is not outside area to sit down at. They have keys for the restroom which I didn't use but seen a lady ask for the key so there are no restrooms inside the shop but they do have some available for use in the little shopping area. For food I ordered a Ham & Cheese croissant had it not been a bit burnt I think it would have tasted pretty good. For my drink I ordered a Furious George with oatmilk regular sweet. This drink was Amazeballs! Definitely lots of yummy flavor and the banana was delicious! 10/10 for me. They were very busy and only had two girls working that Friday morning so i understand they worked quickly to fulfill orders. I will definitely be back to try more drinks and hopefully not anymore burnt snacks lol :) read more

Wanted to try this spot since there aren't very many cafes like this in the area and it was highly rated. Hidden away in a little shopping center, this spot is so cute and the inside is cozy and clean. Got a furious George (banana latte) and a cold brew with almond milk. Seriously some of the best cold brew/almond milk I've had! Creamy, smooth and not bitter at all. The banana latte was perfectly sweetened and had no artificial banana flavor - there were literally pieces of real banana at the bottom! Also tried their garlic butter cream cheese croissant and this was life changing. They offered to heat it up for me and it was the most delicious crispy, airy pastry with the perfect amount of lightly sweetened cream cheese inside. The sweet/salty/buttery flavors are the absolute best! So good, highly recommend! read more

Stopped here a few times while doing other stuff in the strip mall. Friendly, quick service and great coffee. Small, intimate space and seems like a great spot to just read a book. They have indoor and outdoor seating. They have many non-dairy (vegan) options. Most of their mixes are already dairy free and the ones with honey are marked as such. They also offer non-dairy milk alternatives. Their pandan coffee with oat milk is my favorite so far. read more

Atmosphere/Location: Great coffee shop/cafe to have in Monterey Park! Close to ELAC and it's in the shopping center with many other businesses. Indoor seating is cozy and accommodates everyone who stays. Service: I usually run in to get my coffee before work. I've stopped by here a couple of times. Depending on the day/time, you could wait a little bit to get your beverage. Not due to lack of hustle, the shop is well-staffed with a friendly crew (who all know how to make a good cup of coffee)! Food/Quality: The drinks are unique and delicious. A big fan of the "Furious George" that I recently got (at half sweet due to personal preference), and looking forward to making my way through their menu! I also tried a fall coffee of theirs last year that was also a fan of. All in all, Leaflet Coffee is a part of my coffee rotation!!! read more

I think that was the best croissant I've ever had! I've seen this place by my house for a while now and finally decided to try it since I was in the mood for a matcha. The store is small and cozy and has a cute vibe. The staff were friendly and helpful when I asked for a recommendation on the matcha. I ordered the Kyoto Matcha Latte with oat milk and simple syrup. The syrup might have been too sweet but the drink was still super good! The matcha flavor was not diluted at all! I also had a garlic cream croissant and it was heavenly! Wish they were open til later in the day so I could go more often but it is still worth a try! read more
