East Village Cafe

Out riding my bike and needed a pick me up. Had a great latte and apricot scone. Sat at the bar inside and enjoyed watching sports tv. Nice crowd. Lots of seating inside and out. Great staff.

Nice service, good food and coffee. Nice atmosphere.

Good coffee, including good freshly brewed decaf, a chill atmosphere, lots of seating inside and out, and an enticing range of jazz bands playing weekly on Sunday evenings.

Good vibes, seating and service. Coffee was pretty good.

Best coffee shop in Monterey.
Did a quick stop for coffee,
It’s a cute small place and the staff are so friendly. Got great service.

I am all about that bass and so was the crowd as I helped wrap up the late night open mic. The crowd was very supportive of everyone who braved the stage - this is a great place to hang out with the locals. Thanks for the welcome!

Nice food selection and I like the chairs. A bit loud though, so not the best place for concentration. I like the out door area, but with the smokers would go away...overall, nice place to be for socializing, but perhaps not the best study/work spot.

Excellent coffee and bringing my cup saved me a little change.

I could give them 5 stars - because the staff are great and friendly environment - but the last time I came out there, they were out of my favorite Tea and Sparkling soda. If I get my hands in one of these again, I'll consider and edit my review

It is good, the staff is friendly, they serve different coffees, teas, pastries, and craft beers if that is your fancy.

Also they often host local artists in the back room for anyone to see for free.
Be advised some are better than others.
