Bright Coffee

Loved this place! Cute little cafe with all kinds of merchandise and little outdoor seating area. They let me bring my dog to the patio! (You have to walk through the shop to get in and out of the patio, NBD.) I really enjoyed my coffee and cards I bought and I was very happy with the service. The women that helped me out made the experience delightful. Will be returning!

My drink is an almond cortado and you can imagine I often have to settle for a latte. Well not at this place! The coffee is good, they don't screw it up, and everything is exactly the right temperature. Also they make their own syrups! I don't go for mochas much but if you do do yourself a favor and try the spiced chocolate.

Delicious coffee - the butter chocolate is everything!!! Every time I'm in Monterey I go here and enjoy an iced latte with butter chocolate. It's a little hard to spot, it's in a building that is split level (possibly a duplex on top) and they share the bottom level with a super fun (and pricey) boutique shop filled with what appears to be hand made goods. You cannot park out front, but I usually don't have difficulty parking on a side street nearby. This is not the stay, plug in and hang kind of coffee shop - they don't have a ton of seating options so I would still recommend you stop here, just don't expect to stay for long.
