    Avocado toast
    Assunta L.

    Pretty cute place. Not big but buzz. There are local students art works show case here too. It is always good to support young artists. I got the breakfast bowl with salad. It comes with eggs, avocado, black beans and shredded cheese. So filling! Order at the counter and food is brought to your table. There are parking on the street.

    I had a memorable experience at Grey & Cash (Monrovia). I ordered the Nitro James Brew ($8.25 - 16oz - 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

    I felt very healthy eating this. The Breakfast Burrito is definitely on the pricier side considering that it comes with no meat & the portion is pretty small. I love the community vibes of this cafe though!

    The few items I've tried on the menu are all amazing, I'm currently addicted to the Lox toast as well as the loose leaf teas they have to offer. The women at the register are all so sweet and helpful. The ambience of Grey cash is warm, inviting and they're always playing good music!

    Some type of egg burrito. I ordered a vegan carnitas burrito. They got my order totally wrong.

    I would like a credit back to my DoorDash account for the full amount of my purchase. It was a little over $17. This is not what I ordered at all. I'm just recovering from a medical procedure, and my husband went to pick it up. I'm not in a position to go back in person and ask for a refund. I've noticed the quality is going down. The last time I ordered a vegan carnitas burrito, some of the main ingredients were missing or very scant in my burrito. IE hardly any picked red onion, they also used to include a very good pickled cabbage. Hopefully, they'll reach out to me and refund my purchase. Forget trying to call them, no one picks up the phone. That's also something I have an issue with.

    Expired chips :(
    James H.

    Torn on this one. Great place and vibe. Your neighborgood coffee shop that everyone goes to. I ordered about 8 sandwich combos a day before. Called in about 10 times that morning to add another sandwich and was successful on the 10th try. I get it, they are busy. Get there and there are bags and I asked if chips and napkins are in there, cashier says yes. Lunchtime happens and bags are opened in the office, no napkins or chips. Annoying. Sandwiches are great! Thick, filling and high quality.. but I'm embarrassed my clients don't have chips or napkins. Come back and after the fact, let them know, they say go ahead and grab my chips now. I grab 8 and then head back home. I get home and 4 of the 8 chips are expired.. just can't win here :( Service and expired chips here really soured my experience. Otherwise, looks like I place I'd love to sit, chill, enjoy a sandwich.

    Don't leave without getting a breakfast sandwich! I had the Monroe... everything about it was delicious! The pesto aioli made it so flavorful! Had a honeycomb coffee that was perfect! Great food, coffee & ambiance!

    Brunch + Vibes = happy What we ordered. Jive turkey - toasted sourdough turkey, avocado, tomatoes and some yummy sauce. DELICIOUS Jalapeño cheese gluten free bagel- True as advertised. My daughter cannot eat gluten and if this bagel was not gluten free, she would have been sick all day! She said yummy bagel! Rancheros bowl with scrambled eggs, black beans potatoes, avocado, salsa- I liked this bowl I would enjoy it with more potatoes thou. Dirty oatchatta latte - bad girl but she good! James Brown - needs more espresso but it had some flavor. The seasonal banana drinks were sold out by noon! I must come back. Overall, good place. SUPER FRIENDLY STAFF! Whoever was DJ, I loved the music selection! Faye Webster! Nice!

    rancheros burrito
    Anna W.

    Came here for brunch and got the rancheros burrito. It tasted alright and didn't have much flavor to it. The space itself is nice though, there are tables and couches, making it a good spot to study or just hang out and chat with friends.

    Background On Visit: After finishing brunch at Peach Cafe, we decided to walk to Grey & Cash to get some drinks. Credit Cards: They're accepted. Restroom: Restroom is available. One unisex restroom. Wait Time: Went on Sunday and there was a lot of people inside and outside of the shop. Wait time on the weekend can be long, so try to patient. Coffee Program: Sightglass Coffee roasts their coffee beans for them. Location/Parking: Believe it or not, but this place use to be Parchment Coffee, and before that, it was Friends Cafe. Parking can be found Ambiance/Decor: Pretty cool ambiance with modern furnishings. Service: Service was decent. The barista that helped me was friendly, attentive, and was informational about the shop. Drink Of Choice: Just got the drip coffee ($3.25). It was quite decent. Grey & Cash For Thought: Wouldn't mind coming back to get their drip coffee and try their James Brown drink.

    I love trying matcha spots in different areas, so I decided to stop by since this café is close to where I live. The vibe and ambience are really nice modern, clean, and with both indoor and outdoor seating. The girl who helped me choose was very sweet and friendly, which I appreciated. I originally came in hoping to try the strawberry matcha, but it's seasonal and only available in the summer. So I went with the iced pumpkin matcha latte instead. Unfortunately, it wasn't my favorite. I don't think I'd return specifically for the matcha, but they do have other items on the menu that I haven't tried yet, so it might still be worth exploring for others. Overall, a cute spot with great service just not my personal matcha preference this time around.

    I got a giftcard to this location and with $10 I can afford drink. It's in old town Monrovia and I never noticed it before. The coffee shop is dog friendly and serves food like avocado toast. The croissant was flaky and the strawberry matcha was sweet. Many people are inside working on their laptops, so I grabbed it to go. The line was long because there's only one cash register with a friendly staff. They did forget my order by accident, but quickly made it when they realized eventually.

    Honey Chai
    Lauren G.

    Cute coffee shop that is also pet friendly! Very chill ambiance and friendly staff that gets drinks out quickly. I got the honey chai which is good if you prefer a sweeter more subdued chai flavor. I'll definitely come back to try one of their coffees next time.

    Would this be a nice spot if a group of 5 elderly women to enjoy a Friday casual lunch?

    Would not recommend it for a sit down lunch- more of a grab and go coffee spot. The food takes a while too- I think they only have 1 cook at a time. Takes a while to get the drinks too.

    Besides a gluten-free bagel, are there more options for gluten-free?

    We offer gluten-free brioche bread, rosemary garlic ciabatta and bagels.

    Are you open the day after Thanksgiving 2022?

    We will be closed thanksgiving day.

    What is the best drink for some that likes iced vanilla coffee but lots of cream and syrup?

    Any drink here is definitely delicious and tasty! When I go here I always try something new and… 

    What is in the honeycomb drink and the Mayan drink?

    Not sure about the honeycomb, I believe it might be a honey vanilla latte? The Mayan is their version of the Mocha and it is FANTASTIC!

    What is in the James Brown drink?

    It is a two-shot latte with brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. We also have a wide variety of non dairy milks to make it with as well!

    Is the avocado toast vegan? I noticed it's not listed under Veg on the menu.

    Yup.

    Does breakfast stop getting served at a specific time?

    No. All day.

    Do they serve beer or wine?

    No, it's a coffee house..

    What coffee beans do you use?

    Ritual Coffee beans that are roasted in San Francisco, I believe

I think I just caught them at a bad time before when they just opened. I got their Tiramisu latte now a few times, half sweet and extra shot of espresso, and I really love it! I love getting their Ham and Cheese croissant with it (freshly toasted) all under $7 with the drink, a great deal for a solid breakfast. I tried their Ube muffin as well which was very flavorful. It also came free with a greater than ten dollar spend. Not everything is perfect. I'm not the biggest fan of the meat burrito (although still a solid value, and filling) or their Vietnamese coffee, but overall you can't beat their overall quality at this price point. The owner is also very hardworking. You can see his care into finishing each drink and food item nicely and personally hands it to you. Will be back. Happy to support a mom and pop business.

I typically buy minimum four (4) muffins at a time given my 3 dogs love them, too. Note: I'm known as the muffin man @ Yis given I purchase muffins and give away to customers . And it does not stop with coffee and pastries. Try the fresh tuna melt and you will be hooked on Yi's. It's a large tuna melt so you may need to save 1/2 for later or another day. Yi's opens @ 7 am daily however, he arrives @ 6:30 am on occasion but don't let him know I shared with you. Now for the best part, besides the amazing drinks and food, the pricing is 35-40% cheaper relative to other nice coffee shops in the LA, Pasadena, Monrovia, etc. Area. A few other amenities, including being Dog Friendly: 1.) Free wi-fi 2.) AC inside 3.) nice indoor area for checking emails on computer, work, etc., while waiting for drinks. Enjoy!!!
