Absolutely perfect espresso and perfectly steamed cortado (aka Gibraltar or Piccolo). The hot cocoa was also a hit. Clean and unassuming space, nice and cool interior on a hot day. Great, competent staff, no annoying forced enthusiasm. My kinda place!😍 *** I saw a review complaining about the temperature not being hot enough. Having your espresso machine hotter than 200 makes bad espresso, steaming the milk over 140 explodes the nitrates and changes it from delicious, sweet perfectly structured steamed milk to a gross scalded mess that can irritate people’s stomachs. Stop trying to ruin good, properly crafted espresso you monster!

Music is inconsistent if that matters. Coffee.jpg is figuring out what direction they want to go as a coffee shop. Capitalizing on quality and supporting local businesses is a plus.

Espresso was sour, staff unfriendly. Bathroom is moldy. Glad I tried it so I know not to go back.

Pros: delicious coffee and food. They make a lot of sauces in house. Great, positive work force. Parking is easy. Seating is generally available to work or read. Cons: hard seats (wooden benches, metal chairs, wood seats). Outlets are scattered and not guaranteed. This could easily be fixed if the Coffee shop invested in some extension cords and strip cords. Neutral: This is a pricier coffee shop (example $7 specialty latte+tax, but it is delicious). **If the owner reads this comment, please consider adding extension cords/strip plugs underneath the wall seats. Also consider getting some comfier seating or cushions.

Easily the best coffee in the Pasadena/Sierra Madre area and even up there as my favorite coffee spot in LA. Every drink is always crafted with care and the staff are so sweet and kind!

Cute little local coffee shop with super friendly service. I got the iced vanilla latte made with real Madagascar vanilla beans, and I thought it was decent. I also bought a jar of their unique black sesame butter. 😋👌🏼

Their moonlight drink (matcha latte with lavender) is quite possibly the best drink I’ve ever had outside the house. Also their service is top notch! 5/5 in every category!

Staff is very friendly. Coffee selections are culturally diverse which sets it apart in the neighborhood. Food options also extend beyond pastries with plenty of healthy options.

The best vanilla latte I have had. Not overly sweet, so the flavors of the coffee and the fresh vanilla come through beautifully. I love when a drink is actually thoughtfully crafted with quality ingredients!! You can taste the difference.

Coffee.jpg ended up being a highlight of my trip. The barista was super cool, teaching me a few things about coffee. They serve high quality beans. The space is wide and spacious. Ask for a pour over. I'd definitely go back.

Very friendly baristas! My wife and I both got Guava Guava iced tea and Vietnamese iced coffee. Both were amazing. We look forward to taking some friends here for their first times. Also, the blueberry muffin was delicious.
