This is a unique place in downtown Monrovia. We were here at 9:30am and the place was pretty packed. We ordered green tea latte, almond danish and ham & cheese Danish. The food was fresh and delicious. Their pastries are handmade and not as sweet as other places. Highly recommend to this place if you are looking for a chill cool weekend breakfast place. read more

I had pistachio latte and raspberry denish. Both are super good!! Inside cafe atmosphere is relaxing and cozy too

Already a fan of Republik Coffee in Pasadena, I couldn't pass up the chance to support their new Monrovia location. While it's a lot smaller than the Pasadena spot, it's packed with personality and the same smiling faces greet you at the door. There are a couple of small round tables inside and extra seating outside if you want to enjoy your coffee al fresco. Fun fact: Republik hand-makes all their syrups and even their almond milk! They also offer latte art classes, which is awesome. My husband and I have been interested in learning latte art for a while, so we jumped at the chance to try their Barista Basics class. We ordered: - Black Vanilla Latte - Strawberry Matcha Latte - Lox Bagel - Egg Breakfast Toast A couple pastries were calling to me the entire time we were enjoying our breakfast. As soon as the line cleared I jumped up to the counter to order a couple cookies, olive oil cake, and a ham & cheese croissant to go. Republik is a wonderful little addition to the old town Monrovia scene. read more

We were looking for a brunch spot after a hike and decided on this place. We ordered the: Ham & cheese croissant - kids loved it Breakfast burrito - good, filling burrito Avocado toast & egg on gluten free toast - gluten free toast was actually tasty and I enjoyed all the toppings Vietnamese cold brew - lovely flavor Salted cold brew cloud - creamy and sweet Purple caramel cappuccino - unfortunately not much flavor Pistachio cookie (gluten-free) - delicious I'm currently gluten free for health reasons and it's so nice to find a place that has decent gluten free options. The gluten free toast they use was very similar to regular bread which was nice because that can be very hard to find. The drinks were all good but I just wish the purple caramel cappuccino was more flavorful. Parking can be tricky here because it seems pretty busy on weekends but I would definitely come back if I'm in the area :) read more

"Abandon all hope, ye who enter here." That's what the sign above the door should read. Unfortunately for me, it says "Coffee", and I believed them. Ten dollars and two sips of coffee-essenced milk after walking in the door, my suspicion that this was a made-for-Instagram LA coffee shop was confirmed. The barista did not measure the milk. I am gobsmacked by witnessing this. I have worked in coffee for years, roasting and serving, and this kid handed me another reason to wonder if things are ever going to be okay again - Trump, the War in Iran, climate change, the economy, and this cup of coffee. To top off this ritual in mutually-assured humiliation, all dirty dishes must go in a pull-out bin, the handle of which was sticky. I reached the door to leave. The door handle was sticky. If there is a god, have mercy on these poor sinners, for they know not what they do. read more

Republik Coffee - Breakfast toast and Crushed Cardamom Oat Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Monrovia, California

Great service, really good food and coffee. Baristas are friendly and fast. Only downside: place is tiny with barely any seating. More of a grab-and-go spot than a place to hang out. I wish they would have more comfortable seating. Unfortunately, it fills up fast and it also feels hot and smells like burnt butter as they are always cooking behind the counter and the ventilation is poor. (Just limitations of the space/building which is understandable given high rent prices). Order: A pistachio latte + almond croissant. Worth it if you don't need a table. read more

I had their purple caramel ube latte and it was incredible! Very creamy, with a light taste of ube without diluting the coffee.

Great place for a drink or sit down brunch. Love the energy in here. Order at the counter and find a place to sit inside. There are also outdoor sitting in the front or patio sitting in the back. Drinks are picked up at the counter. Food are delivered to your table. Crepes are served in the afternoon for weekdays or all day on weekends. We tried the ham and cheese crepes and the hungry grain bowl. Of course, have to get my favorite matcha latte. Non dairy milk options are almond, oat and coconut. read more

Republik Coffee - Hungry grain bowl and Ham & Cheese crepes - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Monrovia, California

I am so thrilled to live so close to downtown Monrovia to be able to enjoy all the local restaurants and cafes on weeknights and weekends. The area is so nice and everyone is so friendly. I bookmarked Republik Coffee for the longest time but haven't gotten around to waking up early enough on a "ME DAY" (no kids, no sports, no school events, no volunteering, most importantly no work) to stop by. Sunday morning @ 10:30am - I was lucky enough to find a parking spot right in the front of the restaurant so that was great! The line was out the door but it wasn't anything too crazy. I was able to place my order within less than 5 minutes, which actually gave me enough time to look at the menu. I wasn't too hungry as I usually don't like to eat that much in the morning, so although they have a great selection of breakfast items, I settled for side of two eggs and Turkey Sausages, and of course a cup of London Fog Latte for my IG photo. #PhoneEatFirst Food Rating? I had actually contemplated in ordering the full breakfast for my review. It was actually only $18 so totally inexpensive but I simply don't think I could eat the sides of potatoes, toasts and even an avocado. Wasting food is the last thing on my mind, so I ended up ordering breakfast sides. Surprisingly, it came out nicely plated! I am such a HUGE egg person and always on the haunt for the prettiest egg yolks so the eggs definitely passed the test today! Lol. Perfectly IG photo pleasing so i give that a 10/10. Their Latte? A MUST TRY! It was not too sweet and served at the perfect temperature. I really did enjoyed this so another 10/10. I love the morning vibes here and definitely feel like I was brunching at my favorite cafes in L.A or Pasadena. I highly recommend Republik Coffee in downtown Monrovia! Two thumbs up! read more

A cute little coffee and brunch place thats with an aesthetic clean modern vibe. Outdoor and indoor seating. Free to park on the street or time limited parking lots in the area. I got the Lavender Oat one of their speciality coffees, it was not too sweet, the lavender flavor had a perfect ratio, and not watered down. The Chilaquiles were flavorful and not too spicy (which is perfect for me because I can't handle too much spice) and its big portions, lots of tortilla chips under. I also tried their daily quiche (mushroom), it was yummy, not too salty, crispy crust, with a cheesy middle. Service was quick. If you are ordering food and coffee, you will be able to get your coffee first! read more

The truffle mushroom & Brie signature toast was rich and earthy,. The creamy Brie paired perfectly with the savory mushrooms and truffles. The salmon cucumber toast was light and refreshing . The turkey club panini was warm, crispy, and generously layered with turkey and fresh toppings. Drinks were just as enjoyable -- the black vanilla latte had a smooth bold flavor. The açaí smoothie was refreshing, fruity, and blended perfectly. Overall, a great spot for brunch or a coffee date. read more

Cute coffee shop in Old Town Monrovia with a really nice atmosphere. I ordered the Vietnamese cold brew and actually really enjoyed that one. I also tried the matcha, but personally it tasted a little too much like plain milk for my preference. I mentioned it to the cashier, and she was so sweet about it and offered to make me a different drink, which I really appreciated. Overall, it's still a nice spot and I would come back again to try some of their other drinks since it's in the area read more

Republik Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Monrovia, California

I've been to the Pasadena locations a few times and they've always been super consistent. The space itself is cozy with a subtle luxury feelthe square paneling with gold trim gives it that classic Paris café vibe without feeling overdone. I also appreciate that they make their syrups in-house, unlike a lot of newer coffee spots. If I'm paying $8+ for coffee, I expect that level of detail instead of using standard syrups like Monin or Torani. The coffee itself is solid nothing tastes burnt, and you can actually taste the crema, which tells me the espresso is being pulled properly. I'm not usually a fan of cold brew since it can lean more acidic and slightly sour, but the sea salt balances it out really well. Service was friendly and efficient my drink came out in under 5 minutes even though it was pretty busy. I'd definitely come back. read more

Good coffee, rushed service, and really cramped inside. I just got a hot mocha and it had a really good chocolate-y taste to it while still keeping a coffee taste. The food smelled amazing but the prices were a bit much for me (I was already spending a lot that day). The service wasn't unfriendly but they were clearly very rushed. This is a hot spot on a Saturday morning! I was hoping to have a nice coffee and reading time at a cafe vibe but the inside is small and cramped and it was drizzling when I went yesterday morning. They do have tables outside in the front potentially in the back from the looks of it. There's a location closer to me in Burbank so I'll definitely be back to try other drinks and hopefully some food! read more

I was looking for a coffee shop to sit at to work and found this cute coffee shop on Yelp. There are parking in front and more parking in the back. They have seating both inside and outside the coffee shop. They have a variety of options from matcha, tea, and coffee. Food and pastries is also served as well. Lots of variety here. There is free WiFi if you need to do some work here. Cute relaxing vibe. I had ordered the cardamom oat latte and Maddie did a great job. It was delicious! I loved their service. I highly recommend this coffee shop. read more

Love this new location! There's a super cute back patio so make sure to check it out. It's a smaller space as compared to the one in Pasadena . But the more intimate setting creates a more noisy and energetic atmosphere. This is my 3rd time here since soft opening and the food quality is on par with the other 2 locations ! My only complaint is the butter croissant is almost too buttery. It's very rich as compared to other croissants of similar caliber bakeries and cafes. Service is good. There is live music on Saturday afternoons so I really enjoyed that ! read more

This place is okay. I had the turkey club and an espresso tonic. The espresso was good, but nothing out of the ordinary. The turkey club did not really impress me either. Overall, it is passable. They do have some tables, but the space is on the smaller side. If you are trying to eat and also work on a laptop, it might feel a bit tight. Parking is not too bad since there are free public lots nearby. Personally, I would recommend other cafes in the Monrovia area first. read more

Republik Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Monrovia, California

May 2026 Food/Pricing - $7.50 each, 4 drinks we got were (in order from tastiest to okay): Pistachio latte - enjoyed this one the most, it was sweet and nutty but not overly sweet. Cardamom oat latte - If you enjoy the taste of cardamom then this drink is definitely for you. Rose matcha latte - lighter matcha taste than expected but Rose was a nice complimentary taste. Black vanilla latte - expected a stronger coffee taste, it wasn't very strong in my opinion. Overall for the price point and for the size, The prices are a bit high but if I'm nearby I'll probably be back for the pistachio latte. Service/Ambiance - it was a little busy and it looked like only two people were working so there was a bit of a wait but stuff was friendly and tried their best. Parking - plenty of street parking and small lots around the downtown area. read more

Really enjoyed my visits to Republiq Coffee! The pistachio latte was excellent -- smooth, balanced, and not overly sweet. You could actually taste the pistachio flavor without it being artificial or overpowering. Definitely something I'd order again. The mushroom brie toast was also a standout. It was generously topped with mushrooms (which I appreciated!) and paired really well with the creamy brie. It felt substantial and satisfying, not skimpy like some café toasts can be. The other food have been beautifully presented and tasty. There was a long line when we arrived, which seems to be pretty common here, but it moved steadily. Even with the crowd, we were able to find seating outside, which made for a really nice, relaxed atmosphere. Overall, a great spot with quality drinks and food -- worth the wait. I'll be back! read more

Republik Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Monrovia, California

I have been waiting for Republik to open here in Monrovia. The coffee is delicious with some unique flavored drinks. I'd say a top favorite for me is the salted cloud cold brew and the Vietnamese coffee. This place has a trendy clean aesthetic with a beautiful tile counter. The staff are super friendly and happy to help you decide on a drink, pastry, or food item. Speaking of food. We also grabbed breakfast. I did a breakfast plate and my wife did the chilaquiles. Both were delicious. I'll definitely be adding this in my rotation of coffee and food. read more

This is a nice little cafe in old town Monrovia. it has indoor and outdoor seating. The interior is similar to the one in Pasadena, but obviously is much less spacious. it is a small cafe so tables are small, and no WiFi on weekends.

Visited Republik coffee today for the first time which is the latest edition to the Monrovian high street experience. Actually I had no intention of stopping by as I'd already hit the El Diablo taco restaurant on the same street, so I was rather full after my taco-styled breakfast. Nonetheless there's always a good walk that will shake off the effects of a few tacos. So what attracted me to the Republik coffee house? I think it was the line waiting to place their order and the fact this was new so I decided to join in to get the experience. The cafe has a rather skinny look to its floor plan although they also have an outside patio experience which is at the rear of the cafe. Despite the waiting time (10mins) I ordered a latte and an almond cake. The coffee experience was really good-- they serve their coffee in a nice cup and saucer which always makes the coffee taste even better in my opinion. Their beans have (I believe) an Ethiopian aroma which is a strong lasting flavor. Republik also has an extensive food and drinks menu -- enough to fit most people's expectations. Actually, I think I need to go back and try the breakfast as I saw a few people tucking into this dish which made me feel hungry again! Overall the experience was good -- maybe a little challenged on the floor space but overall a good adventure! read more

Republik Coffee - Republik Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Monrovia, California

Republik is really good but a very pricey coffee shop. Breakfast for two of us was around $57. Everything they're serving up looks delicious, from breakfast dishes to pastries. I had the tuna melt and appreciated the perfect crisp on the bread. They do offer it in either a half or full, and next time I would order a half because it's pretty filling. We also enjoyed the breakfast burrito. The real winner for me was the Strawberry Matcha Cloud. The strawberry flavor along with the matcha was just wonderful. They have a nice little back patio to enjoy your meal, and everything came out pretty quickly despite the long line. I just felt that the price points could be a bit lower. read more

TLDR: cute, clean small café, a bit too loud for studying. Drinks sound good, but flavors (rose matcha $7.5 and pistachio latte $7.5) are milder than expected. Parking can be tricky; either street parking on Myrtle or a parking lot on cross streets. Republik is a cozy, clean little café in Old Town Monrovia with about 6-7 small tables and free WiFi. The space feels bright and welcoming, and the service is pleasant and friendly. It's a nice spot to catch up with a friend, though it gets loud and echoey, so it's not the best place to study or work for long stretches. Parking isn't the easiest, you'll likely need to find street parking on Myrtle or use the public lot on Lemon. We ordered the rose matcha latte and pistachio latte. The rose matcha uses ceremonial grade matcha and their in-house almond milk (which is really good), but the overall flavor is very mild. After the first sip, it mostly tastes like lightly flavored almond milk -- the rose and matcha aren't strong or concentrated enough. I noticed they pour matcha from a premade bottle rather than whisking it fresh, which could explain the muted flavor. The pistachio latte is similar. I can barely taste pistachio, though you can see real blended nuts at the bottom, which I appreciate. The coffee itself is solid, but overall I wish both drinks had a stronger, more pronounced flavor. Would give both drinks 2.5/5. read more

What was formerly Sunday's Old Town Bistro in Monrovia is now Republik! I came by here after lunch with a friend, so we didn't order anything to eat, but picked up drinks to enjoy. They have some yummy looking pastries and their menu includes some toasts, bowls, and sandwiches, as well as a couple special entrees available only on weekends. They did a nice job of remodeling the space to make it feel spacious and modern. There are a few seats indoors and a cute outdoor patio. I ordered the hot Purple Caramel Latte, my friend wanted the Sea Salt Hazelnut Cappuccino, but was told that they don't have anymore hazelnut and actually that item is no longer being offered. Not sure why they left it on the menu... so she just ordered a cappuccino. I enjoyed the latte, it was very tasty and not too sweet. My friend enjoyed her cappuccino. The food looks good too, so I'll have to make it a point to stop by for lunch in the near future! read more

Came by to get coffee before the night market started on Friday evening. Line was short, and staff was attentive. I love the minimalist decorations. They also sell cute products, such as water bottles. We ordered a hot cardamon oak latte. The coffee came out to be very tiny, but it cost closed to $9 with tax. To be honest, I wanted to try the strawberry matcha cloud, but it cost $9.25 plus tax. That would be too much for me. The coffee I got is decent, nothing stand out, not worth for what I spent. read more

Beautiful coffee shop with a covered patio, bakery items and a menu of real food. Staff was super friendly and helpful even first thing in the morning. They were out of the Brazil cold brew, so I settled for the house cold brew, blueberry almond cake and a side of scrambled eggs. Cold brew was nice and balanced, The cake was moist and a had a different texture than a normal cake. Took a sec to process, but ended up liking it. The eggs were cooked perfectly and seasoned well. I'd like to return to try a few different items, hopefully the Brazil is available. Cafe is a little on the pricier side, but with everything being made on site, makes it tad easier to understand. read more

Sweet enough to bring it on a separate plate. 10000% come back again! read more
