Cake Monkey has two locations in LA and I'm thankful for this Beverly Boulevard spot. I keep…read morepopping in to pick up a few things each week and am enjoying working my way through their plethora of options. The chocolate chip cookie with rice krispies "Summer Camp Chip" ($4.25) has delicious flavor and if you enjoy soft & chewy with a slight crisp, they hit all textural marks for excellence. This has become our absolute favorite snack to get here and I gots to have it every time I'm in. The chocolate pop tart is solid. We prefer the taste of this to the brownie cookie...we aren't big on that one. I had such high hopes because I love brownies and obvi love cookies, but alas, personal taste preference. The chocolate cake pudding ($4.25) is a rich and decadent treat that can be eaten right out of the wrapper it comes in! I was surprised I loved this chocolate cake soaked in chocolate custard with a few marshmallows and caramel on top. The Peanut Butter El Rollo is a tiny but cute little guy at $5.50. They make their own peanut buttercream for the inside filling and the chocolate is just wonderful. I like their bars One of my favorite things at Cake Monkey is the Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Cakewich. This mini cakes are just $5.75 and individually wrapped so make for great little gifts to bring to a housewarming or event. Plus it's gluten-free and vegan so all our friends can enjoy it! Cakewiches for the win at Cake Monkey Bakery! I've only tried the Matcha Latte in the drink department here and was satisfied with it. I'd like to try some of their fizzy drinks but they were out of tonic water this morning. Next time! And there will definitely be another time with Cake Monkey Bakery! They just have SO MANY options here, it's easy to find multiple baked goods you can enjoy here. I'm a fan.

I cannot thank this place enough for how quickly they were able to make a cake for my sisters…read morebirthday! I came in just 2 days before I needed the cake. It was extremely last minute and I was trying to find anything I could while also getting my sisters cake of choice. I found Cake Monkey Bakery online and they seemed very promising. I called and asked if they were able to do a cake within 2 days and to my surprise they said possibly! They asked me to send an email or to come in with an inspiration picture to see what they could do and they exceeded my expectations! First off, the place was lovely with the neon signs and beautiful pastries displayed. I was greeted very nicely by Esmerelda and Nancy and told them my situation. They told me it's no worries and that they were able do the design of the cake with the exact color in no time! They asked a few questions and showed me similar cakes they have done in the past and they looked great. They said they'll keep me updated if anything happens during the process. Coming back 2 days later was a breeze. They called me the day before to tell me I can pick it the time I requested. Again with a warm welcome, they showed me what the cake looked like and I was more than happy, it looked just like the one my sister wanted. Service, cake and timing 10/10, my sister was even more happy with it. So again, thank you so much Cake Monkey Bakery and especially to Esmerelda and Nancy! I appreciate you guys!

I'm not big on creamy and sugary things and I'm more of a chocolatey person. They had lots of different options for cookies, brownies, banana pudding, and drinks.

I should have read the reviews first - then I might have ordered the banana pudding. Instead I got…read more3 vanilla cupcakes (1 for me, 2 for my teenagers). I bake a lot. So do my kids. And I know that vanilla cupcakes with buttercream frosting is pretty easy to make, but sometimes I'd rather just buy baked goods than make them for myself, especially when I'm driving past what I thought was a popular (and presumably good) bake shop. I expected a high-quality cupcake. The cupcakes looked cute, but they were as dry as the Sahara. They should have been labeled as white cupcakes as I didn't detect any vanilla in them. I suspect that the "buttercream" was made with milk and margarine and powdered sugar.....so much powdered sugar. It was sickeningly sweet, and it was dry too. And a true bettercream doesn't even use powdered sugar. So not only were the cupcakes terrible, they were not even what they purported to be. This is like calling a cut of meat a filet mignon and serving a hamburger. Von's, Ralphs and Albertson's make better cupcakes than this for a fraction of othe price.

That alone says a lot about a place. They were running low on several desserts we had our hearts set on, but we knew this before hand. They made things all fresh so if it sells out. It sells out. Instead the lovely people here offered us substitutes and made sure we still had a wonderful experience. We ended up with the crème brûlée (Tahitian vanilla custard with fresh berries and a mint leaf), the affogato (vanilla gelato, house brewed espresso, vanilla whipped cream, served with an espresso macaron), and chocolate gelato! Everything was divine! Love every bit of it! Bottega Louie WeHo is the kind of place that makes a special occasion feel even more special. We'll definitely be back -- hopefully a little earlier next time so we can get our first picks from the dessert case!

Every single time we pick it up from bottega Louie it's so nice. There was just one time on doordash we had a bad experience. I also really like talking with the staff here- they're always so sweet and it's also in such a nice area. I haven't tried the DTLA location yet though.

An updated review on what is now my favorite neighborhood French bakery, Michelina! Everything I…read morehave gotten here is freshly-made as they are baking on premise. I am far from being a croissant connoisseur, but their croissant has set the bar for me being light. crispy, flaky on the outside and buttery velvety light layers in the inside. Their specialty croissants have the same quality but care is taken with the extra ingredients. I also love Kouign-amanns here as they are hard to find. I often buy bread here and you can ask them to slice it for you before going home with it. They are not only bakers but they are also artists! Their desserts and breads are gorgeous works of art! Michelina is a place where my friends and I get a few of their desserts, grab a table near by and catch up with each other. The service here is very friendly and I come here often enough that they recognize me or know if I haven't been coming around- which makes me want to come back! Michelina is a great mixture of traditional French and LA neighborhood love.

Pretty glad we stumbled across this place because everything we tried was really good. We got a couple of pastries and a croissant and honestly they were all pretty solid. The croissant especially was really buttery and flaky, hit the spot for sure. I will say that everything looked almost too good to eat but we managed. No complaints at all on the quality, you can tell they put a lot of care into what theyre making. The staff was pretty nice and helpful when we were trying to figure out what to order since we couldnt really decide. Not a huge deal but it was a busy morning and things moved along pretty smoothly. Overall pretty great little bakery. If youre looking for a spot to grab some quality pastries and maybe a coffee this is definitely worth checking out.
