Friends Cafe

Cute little coffee shop on Myrtle Avenue. I visited twice last week. I tried their avocado toast, tuna melt and cappuccino. Avocado was creamy with crunchy radishes on top. Rosemary bread was crispy for my tuna melt and the tuna was not drowned in mayo. Excellent smooth cappuccino as well. I went on weekdays for lunch so service was quick. I'll return for more.

My go to for specialty coffee in and around Monrovia. This place is pet friendly which is my number two priority after great coffee prepared by knowledgeable baristas. Their food is equally good and fresh. I could eat their delicious breakfast burritos every day of my life if I had to. Grey & Cash has soul and it's comfortable. The owner is super friendly and works almost every day which is another sign of greatness.

I go here almost every day and haven't gotten sick of it - hands-down my favorite coffee shop! The James Brown nitro cold brew has risen me from the dead multiple times... All of the employees are so nice/friendly, even when they're clearly so busy. Great group of people. Food is 10/10 too - personal favorites are the bacon egg & cheese and the Monroe. I swap the bacon for avocado on both sandwiches and they're just as tasty. If you're ever in the area please check it out!! I've driven into Monrovia (30 mins commute for me) just to get breakfast here. And make sure you tip your baristas for all of their hard work - they deserve it :)

This avocado toast has stronger taste than others I had tried. Toast is actually a little salty. Pickled radish is strong (which is a good thing for me) and it has lots of cherry tomatoes. Avocado is flavorful! It’s delicious!!! Taste better than yesterday’s pretty but light avocado toast. Service is good. Mural is cute! I love it!

Grey & Cash is a cafe restaurant that offers good breakfast/brunch and lunch. It's located on Myrtle and Lemon avenues at Monrovia. Interior atmosphere was welcoming and relaxing. Interior design was simple yet well conceived; wall murals, hanging bikes, and huge CA state flag. Indoor dining was very spacious, neat, orgnized and well lit. Similarly, their front patio was neat as well. They have a good selection of coffee and expresso, breakfast sandwiches, burritos and sides. You need to order by the counter before taking a table/seat. I came here on Saturday morning and ordered French Toasts (with whip cream, banana and syrup) and regular drip coffee that cost $10 bucks and $3 respectively. French toasts were soft, fluffy and crunchy on the side. Sliced banana topping was fresh and soft. Syrup has thick viscosity and sweet. Coffee was brewed perfectly. Condiments and water refill were self-service. WiFi is available. Service was mildly slow due to peak hours. Staff were attentive, competent and professional. Wait time to getting my food was ~15 mins. Prices were fair and competitive. Plenty of parking available. Overall I had a wonderdul breakfast meal and dining experience. I will definitely come back and recommend Grey & Cash if you're in the area.
