La Monarca Bakery & Cafe is a bakery cafe on a corner along Wilshire Blvd in Santa Monica that sells Mexican-style pastries and coffee. The menu includes concha, guava croissant, and Mexican hot chocolate, and takeout pastries are also available. A display case of takeout cookies sits in front of the counter, and parking is available in a lot behind the shop or as paid street parking. The horchata latte is too sweet.
