La Monarca Bakery

Wow! The pastries are authentic and delicious! If you?re looking for a quant but cozy coffee shop in Santa Monica, THIS IS IT! Morning beverages with a Mexican twist, along with great pastries to fit the part. The Vegan pan dulce was outstanding. I ordered a mollete and the beans were seasoned just right, the cheese added that special zing it was missing! The cake display looked so good I had to take more things home. The staff was delightful but I would recommendadding a tip option for card transactions, they do an amazing job and I would have loved to reward them a little.

I had the Cristobal coffee made with Abuelita chocolate and coffee and half and half. So decadent delicious. The aroma when you enter the bakery in Pico Rivera is just like heaven. I also had. Soy chorizo quiche that was so good. I bought an assortment of cookies galletas to take to the office and everyone was coming to my desk for some decadent goodies. The staff was very happy friendly even at 6am in the morning.

Giving 5 stars even though they gave me a coffee so hot I had to wait over half an hour to be able to drink it. I think that's just an American habit though. The 5 stars is because despite that the breads and breakfast biscuits at this place as amazing and the salsa verde goes perfectly with it.

Excellent croissants and a small but great drink menu! Their pastries and quiche are delicious and the atmosphere is quite tranquil even though they're on a busy street! Outdoor seating and a kind staff seal the deal.
