If you're looking for a coffee & tea shop that has fun with its flavors, Pressed + Flower is the…read moreplace to be. They have fun with their menu here; you can find a seasonal menu every now and then, and have menu items like their Pandan Vietnamese Coffee, which is delicious by the way, to a creamy Dubai chocolate latte, to a sweet citrus peach green tea and smores chai. I told you they are fun, right? They also have the standard fully customizable menu with Americanos, cappuccinos, mochas, cold brews, etc. My fiancé chose Pressed + Flower to be our Sunday morning treat, knowing I am a sucker for anything cold and sweet while the sunshine is out. We got a Cold Brew w/ Cold Foam + Pandan Vietnamese Coffee to sit inside. Originally we were just planning for a quick to-go order but decided to stay to enjoy their ambiance. The interior is decked out to be just like their menu - fun and whimsy. Upon entering, I was immediately distracted by all the shoppable decor items like their huge mugs, candles, glassware, stickers, and crocheted animals. See, aren't they fun? I would've stayed in this shoppable section for longer and bought something if I weren't so coffee-deprived, but didn't end up purchasing a crocheted animal, although I really wanted to. I will save this thought for my next visit to make sure I can take one home. They have a variety of comfy chairs, and tables for guests to chill on and take a relaxing break while enjoying their coffee or tea. There are games in the front of the store if you want to entertain yourself with friends and hang out. The staff we interacted with were both friendly and welcoming. We'll definitely be back to enjoy more of their fun seasonal drinks and next time, I'll stay awhile longer to enjoy more of the ambiance they curated here. :)

They've got delicious drinks and I love that they still give ceramic mugs when you ask for it (a lot of other places have stopped doing this and just always use the plastic lined wasteful to-go cups). I will likely even bring my family or kids here too as it has so many activities like books and games for young and old. Huge variety of drinks, good breakfast foods like even hot oatmeal, and some lunch food items too, although I haven't tried those yet. The staff are always kind and calm adding to cool vibe. Don't miss the items for sale from local vendors. Fun to browse!

First-time visitor to this location, and my visit was a positive experience…read more This coffee shop is located at the south/east corner of very busy Peck Road and Ramona Blvd. The exterior is not large, but it appears well-maintained and clean. I used the drive-thru to place my order, which was a strawberry matcha latte. After placing my order, I waited a total of 4 minutes for the two vehicles in front of me to receive their orders before I arrived at the pickup window. The young female employee who handed me my beverage was extremely friendly and welcoming. Service was excellent during my visit. Thank you!! As I drove away, I had one sip of my drink, and it was DELICIOUS!! So much flavor, perfectly prepared and refreshing. I was a happy camper

If they don't want to work, then they shouldn't be here wasting customer time. Avoid this place if you are in a rush. Only one staff member seems to have any decency or rush, the rest are a lost cause.

The Spanish latte here is hands-down the best I've ever had, and the espresso tonic is a great choice if you're into tonic water drinks. Pastries are excellent too, sourced from a bakery in Long Beach. The staff are friendly and clearly passionate about coffee. Special shoutout to David for always making the visit great. Plenty of seating and free WiFi make it perfect for studying or getting work done, and it's clearly a favorite with APU students too. Only minor note: a few of the chairs were a bit wobbly, but that didn't take away from the experience at all. I'll definitely keep coming back!

I personally didn't like the teddy graham latte but my friend liked it. I got a chocolate chip cookie which was really good! It's a really good place to study/work in but there are not a lot of tables so keep that in mind. When we went it was really cold inside even though it wasn't that hot outside. But the best part is that there are books for sale! A good amount of books to pick from and they're under $10. There's street parking but there's a free parking garage right next to the cafe.

I had a memorable experience at Grey & Cash (Monrovia). I ordered the Nitro James Brew ($8.25 -…read more16oz - Chilled). It's scary powerful! It's subtle and silky, but 20 minutes later, I felt my eyes dilate. WOAH! This caffeine ramps up in the most unsuspecting way. FUN! I appreciated the strength, and I happily savored this coffee's cinnamon & brown sugar tones. (Quick Note: There's no customer internet on the weekend.) I arrived at Grey & Cash (Monrovia) on Friday (around 10:40AM). Parking will require a little walking since street parking is very competitive. Fortunately, there's free parking lots scattered nearby, and it's a brisk walk. Staff is professional and diligent. This business is CRAZY busy! The line kept lengthening. Staff politely and efficiently answered my questions. Once I reached the counter (took about three minutes), my drink arrived very quickly. Took about one minute. As mentioned, I enjoyed the Nitro James Brew ($8.25 - 16oz - Chilled). It has no ice, but it's chilled. The coffee is also silky & soft. Initially, I scoffed at the coffee's strength... but as time progressed, the caffeine kept growing stronger & stronger. WOAH! As someone who drinks daily coffee, it's very rare & unique to feel such almost-frightening power. Regarding ambiance, Grey & Cash (Monrovia) felt busy and cramped despite the large space & tall ceiling. There's about nine tables inside, two tall tables, and five outside tables. The location has a self-service water station, high-chairs for kids, and several electrical outlets (counted about six spots). There's also customer internet with password; customers must ask Staff for the details. Also, there's a gender neutral restroom in the back. Its music is fairly loud, but it's upbeat and fun. Overall, I found something unique and special at Grey & Cash (Monrovia). If you love silky, potent coffee, this is a must-try. WOAH! 4.9 out of 5

My friend even asked twice to confirm, and we were told it did NOT come with mayo... but it still came with mayo. I was so hungry that I just ate it, but it was definitely disappointing. My husband ordered the vegan meat burrito in a red tortilla, and we also got café de olla. The food was okay overall, kind of American-style, but nothing special. Service wasn't the best for a first visit. My friend had to wait a long time for her food, and they also forgot her coffee. They did apologize, but it was still frustrating since we had already asked questions before ordering. Now I understand why it wasn't as busy as the place next door. Unfortunately, it wasn't a great first impression, and we probably won't be coming back.

Parking can be found either in the shared public lots or along Myrtle Ave. Ambiance/Decor: Nice cozy ambiance with 6 or 7 small tables to sit/read/drink in the shop. Service: Service is great.

From the…read moremoment I walked in, I had a good feeling they will be my go-to cozy spot to get some reading done. They opened in October of 2024 and are proudly women-owned and operated. They are located behind the blue Moo Moo Mia Ice Cream shop, so they might be a little easy to miss, but I promise, once you find them, it's like stepping into a book lover's dream - tall bookshelves, colorful book titles, comfy seats, and cat themed! I have to spread the word to all of my cat-loving friends. I first heard about Black Cat Fables from my bestie, who is a Monrovia native. She even took me to attend one of their store events - their 2026 Vision Board planning event! We got to meet lovely neighborhood folks, and spent an hour dreaming up the year ahead and meet the store owner, Nicole, and their event planner, Mikayla, whom are both super sweet and friendly. After the event, I couldn't help but grab some beautiful bookmarks and a full collection book of the Jane Austen novels, which is now my next read and sitting beautifully, waiting for me on my bookshelf. They also have their own curated selection of beauty products, home decor, and not to mention, an adorable collection of bookmarks that I just can't resist. I'm a big fan! I am subscribed to their email newsletter and followed their socials to stay up to date, since I don't want to miss a thing from them. I can't wait to see what they have upcoming this year and continue to support them.

Going from a large for $7.55 to a small for $10 is absolutely crazy and makes no sense from a customer perspective. What's even worse is that the quality seems to have gone down at the same time. The drink is smaller, doesn't taste as good as it used to, and costs significantly more. If you're going to raise prices that dramatically, the quality should at least stay the same or improve not get worse. I used to enjoy coming here, but it's hard to justify paying nearly $10 for a drink that's smaller and lower quality than before. Very disappointing and feels like a poor way to treat loyal customers.
