El Mono Motel & Latte Da Coffee Cafe in Lee Vining is a welcoming spot for a cup of coffee. The cafe offers a friendly atmosphere with a friendly team and morning music. The lattes are highly praised, as well as the vegan bakery options, including a moist and delicious coconut cherry coffee cake. The service is generally quick and friendly, although there may be occasional variations in staff energy levels. The attached motel features small but clean and cozy rooms, some with private bathrooms and others with access to communal facilities. Despite their size, the rooms have a comfortable and renovated feel. Guests can enjoy fresh baked goods, delicious sandwiches, and fresh coffee, making it a perfect stop for visitors. The location is convenient for visiting Mono Lake and nearby Yosemite National Park, with gardens full of perennial blooms adding to the charm of the place. The outdoor garden area adds to the peaceful, pretty, and sunny vibe, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the views. Some rooms are close to the road, which might cause noise at night from passing vehicles, making sleep difficult for light sleepers. However, for those who sleep soundly, it is a good choice. Overall, the cafe is adorable with tasty drinks like homemade chai and Mexican espresso (Fuerte), and the food surpasses nearby hotel restaurants. The garden provides a pleasant space to spend time, especially when Wi-Fi coverage is good. Guests often find the rooms tidy and clean, and many would stay here again, appreciating the convenient location and friendly atmosphere.
