Lilly Mae's Cinnamon Rolls

Let’s be honest the cinnamon roll is super dry. For a “made from scratch everyday” type of marketed product I’d expect a better quality pastry. The glaze was fine but the roll was dry and lacked the necessary texture for a good cinnamon roll. The microwave to warm process leaves you with a very hot $10 pastry burning your hand through a cheap paper bowl. I think they’d be better off heating and serving Costco cinnamon rolls.

It's Monterey, pricey for sure but if you need a sugar fix this is the place. Overpriced yes but they have to pay the bills for location.

Owners, please consider hiring staff who truly care about your customers and your business. Using a microwave to heat up cinnamon rolls is unacceptable—especially in a beautiful and clean place like Monterey. It completely ruins the quality and freshness of the product.

This place could have so much potential, but the lack of care and attention to cleanliness makes it a disappointment. Monterey deserves better—please step up your game and offer cleaner, higher-quality service instead of serving microwave-radiated cinnamon rolls.

Ok for a quick snack, but the apple cinnamon roll has a lot of bread and dome frosting, not so much apple or cinnamon.
It's a tourist spot so I guess rentals are high.

The cinnamon rolls were very dry even with the glaze… I know Monterey is expensive but $10 for cinnamon rolls is ridiculous when they aren’t even moist. Staff was friendly.

They sell gluten free cinnamon rolls that are outrageously expensive but are very very nice.

Nice people but the cinnamon rolls are ten bucks each and microwaved to warm. Far too sweet and rolls taste dry despite all the glaze

Dry and everything else you don’t want a cinnamon roll to be with an insane price point.

Can’t say if the food is good or not, but they do have vegan options!
1. Cinnamon roll with no frosting (can confirm you can add frosting but it’s not vegan)
2. Cookies and brownies (3-4 options) in jars for $7
Prices are high, but that’s just the area~
Also have gluten free options

Not bad for a tourist trap cinnamon roll
