Loved it!!! Hope it won't change the quality after a while. We got different sandwiches and shared. The coffee was great. This was the first time I had coffee that didn't taste bad. The design is great and employees were great. I cannot find something that I didn't like in my experience today. Good job!!! To the customers - please leave your pet outside the cafe! You must be so selfish and brainless to bring it inside and leave it on the ground to shake itself when others are eating. Jane H. Please go to other cafes and leave this one for people that understand how to appreciate when something is good! I highly recommend this place and hope the employees will be more careful to not let pets on the ground and ask the customers to leave it outside or hold them. read more

We got two sandwiches. They were very fresh with good authentic Italian ingredients. Only thing missing I felt was it could have used some sauce or extra flavor. Service was prompt. Edit- the sandwiches we got were the prosciutto and the bresaola read more

Here is an example where a new establishment tries really hard to produce a superb product and actually succeeds. First time coming here with my family. This place is busy which is a good sign. Friendly service and very open seating. I wish there were more seats but it's a bakery so I wouldn't expect excessive dine-ins. Very clean and modern. So this is a new place and staff will make mistakes. It's how they handle mistakes that will allow me to come back. So they made a mistake with my order. But the manager was quick about replacing our order and we all walked away happy. Honestly the food is REALLY GOOD. I tad bit pricey but I'm happy to pay the premium. Quality is amazing. They are across the street from Porto's , which in itself is a challenge. I admire their confidence to make it in this tough industry. I think they will succeed with the quality of food and service. I may come back tomorrow just to eat here again. It's that good. read more

We were surprised how good the sandwiches were. Bread is made fresh on site and crispy, crunchy and soft at same time, very good. Pizza flatbread was delicious too, surprisingly so. Homemade soda like the ginger was yummy. Egg Sandwhich was like a pamidor ovtzvatzegh (tomato egg) very yummy. Service also was very welcoming and helpful. And it's a very big bakery so lot of space for family too to sit. Very clean as well and I highly recommend. read more

Monte Bakehouse in Glendale is an Italian bakery that's quickly becoming a local favorite. Everything is baked fresh daily, and the focaccia is the star of the show--crispy on the outside, soft and airy on the inside. The must-order is the Mortadella or Prosciutto Sandwich, layered with freshly sliced Italian meats and creamy stracciatella cheese. Don't leave without trying one of their flaky pastries or the mixed berry pavlova for dessert. Pair it with a strawberry matcha latte or one of their specialty coffees for the perfect finish. If you're looking for a beautiful cafe with incredible sandwiches, fresh pastries, and a bright, modern atmosphere, Monte Bakehouse is definitely worth the visit. 238 N.

Had lunch here earlier today with my son and mom. Spacious and lots of indoor seating. They have lots of desserts to choose from , freshly baked bread, sandwiches, salads and toasts. Variety of drinks was great too. Customer service was welcoming and friendly. We ordered the mortadella sandwiches and iced latte. They slice the mortadella for every order which was really nice to see. The sandwich tasted amazing but I wish there were a few extra pieces of mortadella in there. The bread was amazing and the stracciatella cheese is delicious. It was a great sandwich. The coffee tasted good took. We were happy with our lunch and will definitely be back again to try other sandwiches and dessert. Cause wi have my eye on a few things I saw, specially the honey cake. Looked sooo good. read more

I got the regular size prosciutto sandwich for around $18 with tip. It was delicious. This italian sandwich was easy to eat, not too large to bite or devour, nor was the bread tough/hard. It was soft, fresh and the meat was salty but mild, not overpowering. I was concerned over pistachio cross contamination, but that did not happen. Great sandwich! Decent cost. They have smaller sized sandwiches for under $10 too and many pastries to choose from. Near the Alex Theater! Park and pay spots for 2 hrs on the street in front. read more

Been here on two separate occasions, amazing and welcoming staff. The cafe is very clean, smells like fresh bread, open seating, and amazing for students/workers! Came here on a Sunday to study and I was offered free WiFi when I mentioned I was a student. Very sweet of them. They have some seats by the window for solo diners and it's perfect! I ordered the scramble tomato croissant, walnut meringue, and iced americano. The croissant was fresh, the scramble was piping hot and tasted AMAZING. Definitely my new go to spot! read more

Sandwiches are ok. Nothing special. I'd suggest Nickos Sandwiches instead. While eating in there, they had people recording, and promoting their place. Sooo it seems like a hype instead of actually serving good food. read more

Monte Bakehouse replaced another bakery and is currently in soft opening mode. They offer Italian focaccia sandwiches (made to order), loaves of bread, flatbreads, pastries (croissants, tarts, cake, pavlova, muffins), jello, cookies, and coffee. The meat and sandwich fixings are kept in the display case. Meats are sliced to order. Order at the register. Pastrami & brie focaccia sandwich ($16.50): This was a large sandwich cut in two. The focaccia is baked in-house daily. The pastrami is sliced to order. The focaccia was soft and chewy. It wasn't as crispy as some of the other places. The fillings were so delicious together - creamy brie cheese, pastrami, earthy mushrooms, roasted onions, and a creamy truffle spread. Yum. I would have loved a bit of arugula or a leafy green. Everything was fresh and high quality. Zucchini flatbread ($5/slice): thin, soft crust topped with lots of grated zucchini and a bit of cheese, light and fresh tasting. Mr. Froyo really enjoyed the flatbread and requested more. I'd like to try more sandwiches, flatbread, and the loaves of bread. They recently added salads, toasts, and smaller sandwiches. The bakery is spacious with plenty of seating. read more

The sandwiches here are fresh, light, tasty, and all ingredients are of high quality. Even the spreads or sauces they use are delicious. The mortadella and salami are a must and the flat breads are perfectly crispy. Yummmm. read more

Ordered a tuna sandwich, vegetarian sandwich, marmellatta tart, Eskimo cake slice, and lemonade. Really loved everything. The bread was amazing and you could tell it's freshly baked on the premises. The sandwiches were really balanced and both the tuna and vegetarian were delicious. I especially appreciated that the vegetables in the sandwich were grilled rather than just a raw vegetable sandwich like some places. I've also ordered coffee here and it's very good. Very pleased for this new addition in the neighborhood. You can also buy loaves of bread or baguettes! It's amazingly convenient. Would highly recommend, ten out of ten for me. Wonderful addition to Glendale. Hope they keep their quality control up and it stays excellent. Can't wait to try more items from their menu. read more

I really wanted to like this place. Unfortunately the pastry I chose did not taste fresh at all. The coffee was ok but I want better than ok. With so many great bakeries & coffee choices btwn Highland Park to Glendale to Pasadena the standard for a new spot has to be high. Maybe the sandwiches & bread are good so I will give them another chance. read more

Nice and good new sandwich place, will come back for sure I got turkey sandwich and ice americano was so good read more

I thought I was going to Monte Bakehouse to enjoy a delicious pastry and coffee, figured the sandwich would just be the actual food part of my meal and nothing else. I was shocked to find that the sandwiches are really the star of the show. I kept it simple with the mortadella sandwich. The meat was thinly sliced, bread was soft and the rest of the ingredients were fresh. Staff was nice and helpful. I was worried when asked what size for my cappuccino (I'm a coffee snob) it was more like a latte but still delicious. The space is large, good for groups/families. Only one table outside where we sat. I see myself coming to Monte Bake House any day for a delicious sandwich and sweet treat. read more

Tastiest sandwich I've had in a while! It comes out warm and the cheese melts just enough. The inside of the place is really cohesive and spacious. I do wish it's a bit closer but what can you do ^^; read more

Very nice and clean bakery with light sandwiches and salads for lunch. A variety of desserts too. Love that they bake their breads daily. Service was friendly as well! read more

Found this cute place while on a walk. The inside is so modern and nice. Would recommend the tuna sandwich made with the focaccia bread! So light and yummy. Would go back again to try their coffee next time! read more

This new bakery just opened up and it was delightful. I believe they are still ramping up and they offer a huge multitude of bakery goods: pastries, sandwiches, breads, and flat breads. To try things out, my partner and I went in to try some of their pastries and coffee. We had the pavlova and chocolate heart. Both were delicious! Not terribly sweet and definitely hits the spot. Service was good! It really felt like a small business and really willing to deliver the best customer care. I'm excited to try out their heavier offerings :) read more

As my first time visiting Monte Bakehouse, my experience didn't exactly go the way I expected. To start off, it was extremely busy when we came in. They have a very open space that I think was decorated nicely, however there was minimal seating. The food was spectacular: Everyone in my family left happy, but we did experience some issues after ordering. We ordered a small and large of the prosciutto sandwich (I recommend adding balsamic glaze), but we received two smalls and were still charged for a large on the bill. In addition, our order took a very long time to come. Despite all this, the service was wonderful. We ended up getting another small, and everything turned out fine. The prices are quite high though. Overall, this place is a great establishment that just wasn't quite prepared for how popular they'd be; the food is amazing, and the prices are above average. Will definitely return, but just when it's a little less busy. read more

If you're looking for an amazing breakfast or lunch in Glendale, Monte Bakehouse is definitely worth a visit. I'll absolutely be back to enjoy that Capers sandwich again! The Capers sandwich was perfectly balanced with fresh ingredients, incredible flavor, and bread that tasted like it had just come out of the oven. The fresh orange juice in the coffee was refreshing, and the coffee was smooth, rich, and the perfect complement to the meal. read more

Excellent service, very tasty sandwiches, excellent coffee, very clean and pleasant repair. I will definitely come back and more than once

Yesterday, I stopped in after seeing an ad on Facebook! The sandwich caught my eye. I ordered three to go: Prosciutto, Turkey and Porchetta. I also got two pastries. The sandwiches are served on ciabatta rolls. I saw the bread was fresh but not toasted so I popped them into the air fryer for five minutes and ended up with the most delicious result. They were crispy and hot like panini. I wonder if I ordered for dine-in, maybe they are served on toasted ciabatta? If not, I'd ask for that. The desserts are fresh and light, and the prices are very reasonable. They are almost across the street from Porto's so they have stiff competition, but give them a try! The staff is attentive and pleasant and the restaurant is clean and fresh. Also, the owner was handing out free almond cookie samples and it was one of the best cookies I've tasted. I'll buy some of those when I return. Bravo!!! read more

We were excited to try it. Service was okay. The sandwiches were just okay too, kinda basic tasting. Honestly, I don't think it's somewhere I would come back to especially for the price. The food wasn't memorable at all, there's definitely better sandwiches at other places. It's new so I wanted to give it a try but it was pretty meh. Then it made our stomachs hurt and went right through us to top it all off :( I'm glad we took a chance and tried a new place, it looks really nice inside but we won't be going back. read more

Solid sandwich options. Bread is delicious, airy and flaky. Balanced sandwich. Ice tea was perfect and refreshing. Inside is nice. Service was friendly. Will be returning to try some of their other options, baked goods and coffee. read more

We purchased the Classic Sourdough and enjoyed it for breakfast the next morning. It was absolutely delicious, with the tangy flavor that a great sourdough should have. We'll definitely be back and are looking forward to trying some of the other varieties. I gave it 4 stars for two reasons: 1. I asked if the loaf could be sliced, and the answer was no. While I understand I can slice it at home, I would have preferred to have it professionally sliced. Since they use the same bread for their sandwiches, I assumed slicing would be possible. I do appreciate having a whole loaf at times so I can choose the thickness myself, but I don't see why a simple customer request couldn't be accommodated. 2. I'd also love to know exactly what ingredients are in the bread. The packaging mentions "clean ingredients," which is one of the reasons we choose sourdough, as it's generally easier for us to digest. It would be helpful if the full ingredient list and nutrition facts were available on the website for customers to review. read more
