Even when it's crazy busy ive never had to wait long to put in an order or pay. The coffee is great and cheap and so are the pastries (the empanadilla de manzana is a personal favorite). If you're here for breakfast, I highly recommend the banana-espresso bread. I'm very much blessed to have this place to close to my apartment!!! It's amazing.

My bf and I came and tried the Hambriento breakfast (pictures are attached), cafe con leche, and orange juice and paid less than $20 USD. Such a deal! Will be back for the fresh baked goodies.

This absolutely isn't the touristy part of Madrid so the English isn't going to be as good. But "cafe con leche" works just fine, as does "croissant with chocolate." You'll be fine. I was not able to connect to a wifi here but there was a power outlet.

My girlfriend and I had already decided to do the brunch for 14€ and were promptly seated. The brunch begins with either coffee/tea and a orange juice or you can add mimosas or other alcoholic options for an extra charge. I thought the freshly squeezed orange juice was one of the best parts of the meal! I went for a pancake with PB&J for the first course and my girlfriend got a fruit bowl. I thought the pancake was very filling, but the peanut butter tasted like it was from a jar of Jiffy. Next we both decided to get the breakfast burrito for the second course. Again, I thought the food was very filling, and I'm sure it's hard to come by a breakfast burrito in Madrid, but it just didn't wow me. Overall, I think the portions and amount of food you get for 14€ is very good, especially that orange juice! As far as the taste, it is good, but not great. This restaurant is definitely filling a small niche in Madrid and has some hard to come by "American" food, so if you're craving that, this could be your place.

When I inquired, it turned out the beans were from a small farm in Uganda. My wife enjoyed her coffee with milk, oddly I was so satisfied with the espresso I didn't try hers.

It doesn't have the same feel as the likes of Toma coffee, but instead it is spacious, and whilst I visited, not absolutely rammed. I like it. I like the slightly too loud music that plays relaxing and acoustic beats that allow you to get lost in conversation/ a book/ a help review whilst also tapping your feet. I like the friendly baristas that helped me with my dreadful Spanish and filled in the obvious gaps in my order. I like the industrial metal and bare wood that are sympathetic to the unit and accentuate the wrought iron window guards. I like the coffee. And really, that's what it's all about, isn't it? That's right, I'm bananas about Monkee Koffee!

Really great service and cute coffee shop. The coffee was pretty good. Unfortunately, the banana…read morebread was pretty dry. They only give you free Wi-Fi for 45 minutes, and since it is so far from the center of Madrid, this was disappointing. There are also rules about where you can and cannot sit with a computer. I've found that this computer rule is typical in Madrid, but I pulled mine out for a second and was asked to move. There were only a couple of us in there, so I didn't really understand. Maybe that's a cultural difference though. Either way, really cute, but not what I was looking for.

What a treat!

We happened upon it and I was so pleasantly surprised. I think we went three times during our time in Madrid. I loved the counter experience, I'd definitely recommend that option. I wasn't looking to sit down and do all of that upstairs so my review is solely based on counters on the first floor. The locals love this spot and that is quite obvious. I was told in advance that they do and coming here was very enjoyable. The pastries and coffee are very yummy, you won't be disappointed. Makes for the perfect spot if you really want to get your day started but want to grab a quick bite before doing so.
