Monarch Espresso Bar

Monarch is such a great coffee shop. The staff is super cool and have done a great job creating an environment that makes you want to come back. They also have some amazing coffee beans from Onyx Coffee Roasters in Bentonville, Arkansas. I just wish they were open on Sundays!

Would recommend. Very nice vibe with good space to socialize or enjoy a solo drink at the bar. I got a delicious Almond Milk Flat White made with Onyx Monarch espresso base.

Excellent coffee, atmosphere, and scones! I love the set-up and metal/concrete/wood decor. Definitely a nice place to hang out and study.

The coffee and food was awesome!! Great atmosphere and a ton of room inside!

Great coffee! The most delicious selections of toast. Very clean and friendly service.

Great environment to get tasks done. Coffee is worth the wait even if they happen to be busy, which is hardly the case during the weekdays. I usually get the iced americanos with vanilla and it's made within 3-5 mins after I order it. The workers are super friendly and I would try to come back as often I can. Thank you for your service Monarch.

Great interior. Spacious and well ventilated. Pricing appropriate for the location, though portion may be smaller than optimal. Busy at popular times but otherwise quite peaceful and quiet. Orders are quick. Friendly staff.

Really enjoy Monarch. They are in walking distance of our offices and we frequent them too much! Coffee is of great quality. Baked goods are also top notch. You should try their seasonal offerings as they're usually quality and creative! But, if you're not in the mood to be adventurous, their Americanos are superb (hot or iced).

I love this place!! Whether you want to meet up with friends or get work done, this is the perfect spot. The staff are super friendly and the menu has everything that you would expect.

That coffee shop is really a hidden gem! They offer great, real Italian style espresso in an awesome place. The inside looks so cool with the brick walls and seating is really comfortable. We hadn’t expected such a cool place in Tuscaloosa. Will definitely come again!
Just one thing: some more sofas/armchairs would be cool. But anyway: best coffee place in the south!
