7 Leaves Cafe El Monte — Restaurant in El Monte

Business must be slow because I needed to use the restroom first and I told this guy at the front register about how I needed to use the restroom first and then I’ll order a drink. It was my first time at this location and last. The guy spoke way too fast and gave me 3 different number combinations, which at the end whatever he gave me was incorrect and I needed to go back and ask again. Once again, I asked and he spoke fast and told me yeah it takes while a order something, so what can I get you? I became so frustrated since I needed to pee badly, so I walked out. Lack of boba choices is what caused me to get stuck on top of the guy running the register. Coming from North Hollywood to Baldwin Park, was long and, I really wanted to study at this place and was excited. If you’re still reading this, be prepared to buy something first so you can prove your loyalty first if not the front cashier will tell you 1829493 number combinations, speak fast and then twist it around by trying to force you into buying something first without letting me relieve myself first after such a long drive from north Hollywood to here in El Monte. 0/5 stars happened around...

I keep track of all my reviews, don't bother trying to delete it.

Interior: nicely decorated, fairly minimalistic, modern yet slightly rustic, seats are solid wood. Plenty of seats and tables.

Amenities: okay air-conditioning, wifi available, I didn't see any outlets(!!!!!!!). Bench seating available.

Drink(s): the assam milk tea is delicious, but they gave me a criminal amount of ice in my large drink!!!

Overall: They charge you a premium for the aesthetics of the place by giving you an absurd quantity of ice and zero outlets. I'm sorry but no matter how many cute females you hire for your 100% female staff, bad product AND no outlets get a thumbs down from me. Oh yeah, dead roaches and 1 twitching roach lol. On the bright side, since they're dead/dying, at least it means they're...

First time coming to this Cafe. I only found it because I really needed to use the bathroom. I asked the cashier if I can use the bathroom she said “The bathroom is only for customers”. I completely understand and I told her I would love to be a customer, but first can I use your bathroom. She proceeded to tell me you need to make a purchase first. At this point I almost peed myself so I ran to food for less to use their bathroom, they had no problem btw” I ended up coming back because I was truly hungry. I ordered a ham & cheese croissant. I have to say very disappointed with the quality of food. I paid a total of $3.58 for a very small croissant. The croissant tasted greasy and soggy. Stick to a mom and pop cafe this store in my opinion...
