16 Best Cafes in Monterey

“We came to this bakery because I read about their pastries. Particularly, about their almond croissants, and how incredible they were.

If you're driving through, do make sure you stop to try both the almond and the ham and cheese croissant. They are truly spectacular. Something special and hard to find.

I was disappointed to see how snobby? Annoyed? everyone behind the counter was. But I guess when your food is so good, that's a luxury you can afford.“

“It feels like the best food in all of California. We’ve come here from Los Angeles three times already, and every time we visit, we know exactly where we’re going for dinner.

Thank you so much. Highly recommend this place 🤍“
