The cakes here are amazing. It is the service from Nicky that is just incredible. Really the only place to shop for quality cake and have it delivered if necessary. I can only say Nicky made my Fathers 77th birthday an absolute joy. Thankyou again.

The cake lined strip of Acland Street draws in the tourists and locals alike. You can spend hours just browsing the brilliant window displays, with so many delicious looking cakes and pastries. Monarch Cakes is an institution that has been around for decades and the cakes live up to the hype.
I've often worried that the freshness of some of these stores could be questioned, because they can't possibly be making that much food in a single day. I like the fact that Monarch doesn't have a window completely overflowing with goods, which makes me think it might be fresher than some of it's neighbours.
We ordered some coffee and shared a blueberry bundt cake. The cake was moist and light, with maybe a touch too much icing sugar; but it was still delicious. It was so pretty, and it did taste fresh to me. The coffee was also great.
Staff are really friendly and service is excellent, despite the fact that the place does get busy. There are no bells and whistles with the decor, but who needs them when you have such a delectable window display to draw the crowds in instead.
We went to Monarch for afternoon dessert. It’s a small cafe with tables both inside and outside. We came for the cheesecake which was nice. They have a wide selection of cakes, brownies and cupcakes so you’re sure to find something you like. Recommended.
