Monkey Business Cafe

Monkey Business Cafe has a comfy and homey vibe that feels like a local favorite spot. This cafe is perfect for being productive or for relaxation. I visited twice on weekdays. Both times were calm with plenty of seating. You order at the register and seat yourself. Staff are friendly and helpful. I tried the Chilaquiles ($16), Breakfast Tacos ($16), and Chicken Tortilla Soup ($13). The Breakfast Tacos were my favorite — you get two big tacos with egg, chorizo, cilantro, cheddar cheese, plus seasoned potatoes and black beans on the side. Their website mentions that they make their food from scratch whenever possible, and you can tell with the potatoes. The seasoning was perfect. The potatoes tasted fresh and homemade with the skins left on which I loved. All dishes tasted good and were shareable portions though everything could have used more warmth. The cafe sits next to a neighborhood. The parking lot is small but street parking is available as well.

Parking was a challenge but the SERVICE was excellent. Everyone greeted us with a big smile. Positive energy was free-flowing. There were a lot of available tables. I'm glad it's not crowded but it could be because we went there on a Thursday morning. The food was delicious. The serving is HUMONGOUS which we enjoyed! The pancake was bigger than my face...lol. I liked my breakfast with bacon, scrambled eggs, pancake. I didn't like the fruits that came it. The honeydue melon didn't taste fresh at all. But that's forgivable bec everything else was good. The reason I put a three star on the rating for their atmosphere is because where we're seated, I could smell something stinky which I think came from the bathroom. I hope they'll clean it better in the future so when we come back, we'll enjoy this place more. Oh, before I forget, for the amount of food that was served, their prices were so affordable...impressive!

This breakfast cafe is a hidden gem! The food was delicious—fresh, flavorful, and just what I needed to start the day. Service was impressively fast without feeling rushed, and the staff were genuinely kind and attentive. You can tell they care about creating a welcoming experience. I’ll definitely be coming back for more cozy mornings and great eats!

Hidden gem in Fullerton!! All the food was amazing! So Cal burrito was fresh and the red salsa added to the flavor, the spice was not overpowering. The chilaquiles were soft but crispy, just how you want them. The pancakes were nice and soft!! Definitely recommend to check this place out!!!

Saw this place on Google and decided to try it. My friends have been here before, but it's my first time and glad I did. I love their cause that they offer employment to former foster youth and at- risk young adults 😍 They're on the corner of Amerige Ave and Lemon St. Parking is limited, so you might need to park in the neighborhood. The service was fast and the staff were very friendly. Great atmosphere and the food was delicious. The music was a little on the louder side, so just a heads up. They played a variety of music like from the 80s and 90s (at least while we were there) As for the food, we ordered the traditional breakfast and the chilaquiles. Both dishes were delicious. I wish my dish came with at least 2 pancakes because they were so good. They were thicker and moist. The chilaquiles had a good flavor as well.
