The staff was so attentive and consistently checked up on us to make sure we were doing okay and had everything we needed. I even asked if they could reheat and refill my coffee, and they happily did without making me feel uncomfortable at all, which I really appreciated. Overall, such a welcoming and enjoyable experience. Great food, amazing service, and a spot I would definitely recommend to others. Looking forward to coming back again! read more

Madres Brunch - Churro French Toast and Madres Chilaquiles with Birria and added a scramble egg - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Monrovia, California

Here's a polished Yelp review: Really enjoyed our brunch here. What stood out most was that the food was brought out in the right order and with real care. It did not feel like they were just serving plates. It was obvious the meal was prepared thoughtfully from beginning to end. The bacon was thick, the sausage was great, and the eggs were done right, which is harder to find at brunch places than it should be. You can tell they actually put effort into the details. My wife also really liked the mimosas. They did not just label the flavors. The drinks actually represented the flavors well. As far as ambience, it's really for the ladies and it was packed with girlfriends coming together. GET THE STEAK AND EGGS. We'll definitely come back. read more

Madres Brunch - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Monrovia, California

Last weekend I came here for brunch with a group of 6. Seeing all the tables full and several names ahead of us on the list, we were prepared to wait but we had no idea that we would be waiting for 1.5 hours. Initially quoted 30 to 45 minutes, but it went so far beyond that. We realized it's a small place, but we were getting a little frustrated when they were seating parties who arrived after us because they had the right number of people to occupy the table(s). Sometimes it was parties of 4, then 2, and even 10. An easy solution would have been to move or separate tables to seat us within a reasonable time. So with that being said, I would recommend going super early (before 10 am) or late (after 1 pm) AND do NOT go in a party of 6! Now, the positive! The inside decor is so colorful and cute. Our server was super nice and efficient. We had drinks and order taken in no time! All the food dishes had lovely presentations and were tasty. There was also a virtual DJ playing some tunes up on the screen that created some nice ambiance. While the dining experience was pleasant, the 1.5 hour wait for a table was not. Therefore, I would not return unless I happened to walk by and saw empty tables. But walk by and maybe give it a try. read more

It is located in downtown Monrovia on Lemon St. Parking is on the street or behind the shops. The restaurant is very colorful and small. When you check in for your table, the minutes they quote you is real. I saw a table leave, got cleaned up, and it sat empty for the duration of my wait time (30 min). Im assuming it is allowing the kitchen to catch up on their orders. The food was delicious and the price is moderate for the quality. I enjoyed the food that was ordered and I will need to come back and try their other items. read more

The restaurant is located in old town Monrovia. There are various parking lots and street parking. Can get busy. I had to park a block away. Very cute cafe. I love all the decor and wall signs. I tried the special coffee flight (pistachio, horchata, marzapan and abuelita). All very tasty but I think my favorite was the marzapan. I also tried the birria omelette and so nice of them to let me replace the beans with salad for my dietary preference. My friend ordered the combo toast. The food was a little on the bland side but maybe next time I try their sweet dishes. Drinks were great tho. The lady who helped us was also a sweet. So nice and so helpful. Lots of indoor tables. Nice vibes. read more

They agreed to move us inside. And they took really great care of us. The food was yummmmm! I loved the ambiance. Didn't take pics of the food cause we were starving lol. But coffee was great.

This was my first time at Madres Brunch and was excited to try their food. Their following online and reviews on Yelp are what pulled me into try. Unfortunately, the food was not worth the popularity they receive online. The food is beautiful online but in person was a huge let down. Bland and defiantly not a "made fresh" taste. We decided to order simple and something specialty. Ordered the birria Benedict and lacked flavor. The simple two egg breakfast with a $3 addition pancake was not good at all. Something simple lacked so much flavor. Pancake is definitely box mix. Ambiance is beautiful and has character but we also waited quite a while before we were even served. ( mind you, we were seated/waited before other parties) Overall all, our waitress was so sweet and kind. The only thing I would recommend from Madres Brunch is the Dulce de leche coffee. read more

My daughter and I walked into Madres for a late Friday brunch. We were promptly seated, given menus and water. We split the Nutella French toast and the chilaquiles omelette, to enjoy both savory and sweet dishes. I had the house coffee and my daughter had the iced vanilla cold brew coffee, which she described as delectable. The Nutella French toast was quite thick slices of bread dipped in cinnamon egg batter, topped with a generous slathering of Nutella and grilled plantains. The chilango omelette was a generous portion of green chilaquiles, topped with sour cream and red onions. Our server was attentive and friendly. My coffee was nothing to brag about, it had bitter undertones. Overall it was a nice little breakfast place on the pricier side. read more

Cute new brunch location in Monrovia! The staff was so incredibly friendly and I love the interior decor. They have so many drinks you can choose from, from mimosas to horchata to coffee. I tried the pistachio latte half sweet and it was still too sweet for me, so next time, I may just need to stick to a regular non sugar beverage. My bestie got the iced matcha with oat milk and said it was creamy and flavorful. We shared the salsa verde chilaquiles and the churro french toast. Both were delicious. Will be back next time I'm in the area. They have so many locations, check them out! read more

This location us easy to get here with all the street or public lot parking. There's lots of seating but can get filled during the rush hour. There's loads of fun artwork. The staff were nice and helpful. It can be difficult to find staff when it's a rush but that's expected when it's busy. But they do the payment at the table so it's quick. Their menu also comes with a QR code for special menu options. I for the abulita latte and it's pretty good. It definitely tastes like abulita chocolate and it's not too sweet. I got the oat milk so there was an extra charge. The One sandwich is big! I ended eating half and saved the rest for later. It was definitely a good amount of food. And probably the largest slice of bread I've ever had. The birria and consomé was alright. I wish the consomé had more flavor or a small kick. The potatoes were pretty good, hot and crispy. I'd return here again. There's lots of food I wanna try on the menu. read more

We went back to Madres Brunch and I tried the Birria Benedict. While the birria was flavorful, there definitely was not enough food to justify to $19 price tag. I was still hungry when I left! The beans were also a strange choice as a topping, while the flavor was good, refried beans would be a much better texture with this dish. read more

3.5 stars. Nothing wrong per say but nothing blew me away either. The service was the highlight of my experience, as many others shared too. We arrived on a Friday around 11:30am and the place was packed! Luckily my friend and I grabbed an outside table. We ordered Michelada Flights, which were a little too sweet for me and one was incredibly salty (think beer, lime, salt). The Popeye Omelette was good but average. My friend had the Birria Omelette which looked & smelled fantastic. I love old town Monrovia and will give Madres another try. read more

I'd give this place 3.5 stars. I've been wanting to try out this place since I see it on social media a lot. Since one finally opened up near me, I decided to give this place a try! I got the special of the month, lomo saltado chilaquiles, a pistachio latter, and an order of the churro French toast to share. I was a quite disappointed in the lomo saltado chilaquiles. The idea was great but it was definitely not lomo saltado. First of all, it has bell peppers. I've had quite a few lomo saltado dishes and I don't think they have bell peppers in it. It was also missing that "wok hey" that lomo saltado usually has. The chips also were too soggy for me. I like a good crunch to my tortilla chips. I was also quite disappointed that they didn't have that green spicy sauce that most Peruvian spots have. This was quite a miss in my book unfortunately. The churro fresh toast tasted exactly how it sounds. The bread was fluffy, perfect cinnamon taste, and I really enjoyed the churros on the side. I would recommend trying out their sweet brunch dishes as it seems like that is what they're known for. Since they just opened, they're still trying to figure out the logistics of service. I had no complaints but it does seem like the kitchen took a little longer to make your food. The space is well decorated and it started getting really busy as the morning went on. I hope for the best for this location but I am unsure if I would return. read more

This was such a let down! Came here on a whim based on the Yelp reviews and, ended up leaving disappointed. Husband ordered an omelet. Oh my goodness what a sad excuse for a breakfast classic! The meats were not even cooked into the eggs nor was the cheese. It was like they plopped it on there as an after thought!! My eggs... had HUGE chunks of egg shells in them!!! Best thing about the visit was the coffees we had before the food. We both had the pistachio, I had iced he had blended. We ended up getting it mostly refunded and went elsewhere. The manager was very nice and did apologize- but the damage was done. One other note/ the 2 TV's sat on the same channel which was of a female DJ spinning and just bouncing back and forth to the beat- 45 mins of watching this was.... Painful! read more

Madres Brunch - The only good thing here- pistachio coffees blended and iced - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Monrovia, California

Madres Brunch has finally opened in Old Town so of course we had to try it asap and had an excellent first experience! All of our food was fantastic- delightful twists on old favorites - the lattes were flawless, service highly attentive and welcoming, and such fun, hip brunch vibes. It's pricey but the quality is there and we'll definitely be back. For our brunch feast we tried the pastor omelette, their eggs Benedict, and couldn't resist the churro French toast. We also tried the horchata latte and pistachio latte. I was especially impressed by how beautifully everything was plated and presented - definitely a feast for the eyes as well as the belly - even the lattes! The pork and pineapple in the hubby's pastor omelette was grilled to perfection with the most supple texture and excellent complementary flavors. The refried beans on the plate were some of the smoothest and most flavorful I've ever had - delicious and would get again. My eggs Benedict was the star of the show for me - such a fresh take on a classic fave. The eggs were perfectly poached with a velvety, runny yolk. They were delicately perched on top of some of the BEST muffins I've ever had - soft with an unexpected crust of some sort of butter or light cheese on top and none of that bitter aftertaste you get with the store bought English muffins. And it's topped with the most delightful cilantro- forward cream sauce - absolutely loved it and will return for this item specifically. Highly recommend! The churro French toast was also lovely! They use the thickest slices of fluffy brioche swirled with cinnamon and packed with flavor - topped with fried churro pieces and delectable sweetened condensed milk and whip cream - it's heavy and the portions are massive so we had to take most of it home. But it held up surprisingly well as our dessert the next day - it was still delicious even after microwaving! Our lattes were no less impressive - both decorative, flavorful, and not overly sweet. The pistachio was excellent and will be my go-to when we return. Their wall art is lively and so beautifully done - perfect for the vibrant LA brunch scene and an excellent addition to Old Town. They also have a virtual DJ spinning energetic tunes while you eat - and the volume isn't obnoxious- it's still easy to carry on the convo. Prices are high imo but totally supported by the quality - service was attentive and so friendly - we look forward to our next visit! And it's an excellent location down a quiet side street next to one of the public parking lots. Welcome to Monrovia! read more

This is such a cute gem in the area! My teen son had seen all the hype about it on IG and asked me to take him. So glad we visited. We went during the week around lunch time hour. We were seated immediately, despite thinking we might have to wait a long time because they appeared busy. We ordered the flight aqua Fresca which were all super delicious. My son ordered the fruity pebble pancakes where they even did a full presentation when they served it to him. He loved it! I had the green chiliquilles with steak and it was beyond flavorful and delicious. The black beans were my fav with the queso fresco. The staff were friendly and attentive. I'll definitely be back with my girlfriends for brunch! read more

I love cafes in downtown Monrovia and because this is not on Myrtle, it's a perfect spot surrounded by small shops ans restaurants. We had a 30 minute wait at about 1030am on a Sunday which makes sense. My mom and I went on a walk to kill time. By the time we got back, we were sat outside and were given the option to go inside too. We ordered the pistachio latte and abuelita frappe which were delicious. Both were not too sweet or overpowering. I ended up ordered the divorciados and my mom got the mole chilaquiles. It was the perfect amount and greatly flavored. I loved the combo of the red and green salsa which was not spicy, and it came with a baked potato in the middle which was not too big. The mole chilaquiles were smoky and delicious. For service, they constantly checked on us and that included the manager which we noticed they did for every table. It shows their dedication and they have only been open for about 3 weeks. We will definitely be back to try the omelet folded with chilaquiles. Thank you so much! read more

Uufff this is rough just like most of the other Madres locations. Stop paying "foodie influencers" to bring in people when you should be paying for more staff to keep up with the crowds. I came across a Latina foodie and all of her paid posts are to bring people in and then the places aren't good and not prepared for the temporary influx. Then they get bad reviews bc the food is awful and overpriced. Chilaquiles are dry, food is room temp and all drinks are so sweet. read more

I came in the afternoon to have breakfast. I ordered the birria omelette with beans and a mazapan iced latte. I was really looking forward to the meal because I have been to the Long Beach location and had a good experience. The birria had no flavor and was not warm, the beans were seasoned well but were cold. The server was not that friendly but the manager was nice and was able to take it off the bill. The mazapan latte was delicious. It was just not mixed that well. The inside is very nice with beautiful artwork on the walls. It's very clean. It is very expensive for the quality. It was $8 for the latte, which was very small. I am not sure if I would come back to give it another try. read more

My First experience here, ordered the wrong thing. Wasn't the best and over priced for what I originally ordered. My second experience wasn't great. Came with friends, had steak n eggs, mole chilaquiles, and birria omelet. On the steak n eggs potatoes were cold-lukewarm. My wife's birria omelet the beans were cold-lukewarm and the first 2 bites of the omelet with the birria were large chunks of fat. The birria to us from what we've made and had before didn't seem seasoned that well. She didn't eat it, the manager was nice to take it off the bill. We waited a bit of time for our meal. My order was brought incorrectly so had to be made again and took more time. Mine was probably the hottest out of all the plates, the mole sauce was good and the chilaquiles were sautéed nicely. Seemed like they were a lot more concerned with an influencer than people eating inside which also probably the reason for the delay in food delivery. Had to make it perfect for her. Our server probably not her fault just from watching her seemed like she wasn't having a good day or what's it called rbf? Resting % face. She seemed nice but it just looked like she didn't want to be helpful. Which could definitely be wrong. The lattes tasted really good. Not sure if we'd be back again, too much competition in the area for breakfast with comparable prices. Came around 1pm read more

My grown kids & I wated over 45 minutes for us to be called. We were told the wait was 20 minutes TWICE. We asked after the 1st 20 came & gone. The food was very much microwaved because the waffles were elastic and chewy so was the bread. There was no salad dressing on our salads so dry. The air conditioning was super high I froze. The place is cute and the service was ok. We got our salad dressing but after comments like "we already put some so you want more?" Um both my son and I had completely dry salads. So rude.
