Reviews for La Monarca Bakery & Cafe in Santa Monica, CA
They have really good cakes. I have only ordered through ubereats, and wish to go there soon, but their cakes taste different,... and look very beautiful. I was looking for a french bakery when I came across them, and so glad I made this. Also on my secondorder there was a problem with my online order, i called them, and they were super kind and helpful. I don't know about otherbranches, but this branch is certainly lucky to have these good people working there Read more
Great vibes and service but lacking in flavor. The concha was very dry, the burrito did not have enough filling to justify the... price, and the ?cinnamon roll? must be a take on it because it was most certainly not a good cinnamon roll. Disappointed. Read more
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 amazingand the salsa verde goes perfectly with it. Read more

Lovely pastries, good service. I recommend the guava tacos and the powdered tea cookies. So rich and sweet and the textures are... a wonderful experience. TIP: Parking behind store and also metered parking. Try the Aguascalientes frescos for somethingrefreshing to go with your treats. Read more
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. Iordered a mollete and the beans were seasoned just right, the cheese added that special zing it was missing! The cake displaylooked so good I had to take more things home. The staff was delightful but I would recommend adding a tip option for cardtransactions, they do an amazing job and I would have loved to reward them a little. Read more
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. Read more
