My boyfriend and I came in on a rainy day. There was enough seating for the both of us! There were many methods to order: through kiosk, QR code, or through the counter. We ended up using the kiosk to order and the baristas were very kind and friendly enough to offer their assistance if we had any questions. We asked about two different beverages and the barista answered thoroughly and professionally! Loved the service here.Now for the drinks - I got the Iced Vanilla Toddy with their signature house milk (lactose free). I absolutely enjoyed it!! If only I were a local to Pasadena, I would be a regular here just for that coffee.. My boyfriend chose a seasonal drink, Frozen Love Swirl, and it was very refreshing. For the prices, it was totally worth it!!Dietary restrictions: I love that their house milk is lactose free!

I have been here a few times and I love their coffee and the variety of drinks they have! I went over the weekend and got their seasonal sweet and salty peanut butter latte and it is the BEST latte I have ever had!! I hope they make it a permanent drink on their menu because it is so good and I'll be sad if they get rid of it. I also love the ambience of the shop. This is my favorite coffee/tea shop in Pasadena, hands down!

Boba at a coffee shop?! SAY LESS. Always a good experience here. I discovered it one day while at work and it has been my go-to boba/drink place for an afternoon pick-me-up. I've tried several different fruit tea drinks (all good and not overly sweet) and their classic black milk tea with boba. I normally order 50-70% sweetness for my boba drinks but I get 100% here. The staff is warm and welcoming, and the place is cute and quaint, good spot to study or just have conversations with friends.

12/17/2023 Visit this place in the morning. You won't regret it. There are a few seats if you want to do some work with free wi-fi. There is coffee and milk tea available. You could add boba to either tea or coffee. What a concept, it will blow your mind. Once you've tried that, come back and visit them at the new location. They are moving, at least that's what the e-mail update says when I read it. If you like boba in your coffee, I have another drink for you to try. Just ask me.

Great almond milk latte. Great service. Friendly staff. Could offer more seating outdoors.

I came in today and ordered the iced taro latte as I was craving for the taro latte for a while. It was a surprise to me that this small tea shop offers it.Out of curiosity of other drinks on their menu, I asked few questions about how these drinks taste like but the staff seems not interested in my questions and only said ‘yes, they’re all good’.I quickly grabbed my drink and left the store without hesitation. Took a sip, the drink tastes like made by taro powder instead of real taro. The favor is very powdery. And I don’t like it and I feel I just wasted money and time to get it.

This is our go-to place when in our Pasadena office. Outstanding service, delicious coffee selection (hot toddy’s, lattes, cold and hot brews and more) plus a nice variety of croissants. Also a very cool atmosphere and convenient location.

I was looking for a great coffee spot and this was in my area.I ordered their Rose Latte with almond milk(less sweet). It was delicious, solid flavor and just the right temperature. It also looks like a solid spot to dine in also or get your laptop on.I’d definitely come back again to try their other menu items.

Came in with my son, the person who helped us was very welcoming and the Boba was some of the best we've had in all of LA. We will be back:)

The pistachio toddy is magical. I don't think the toddies are too sweet, but they do feel like a treat. The regular espresso is also very good. Super cute interior and patio area. Free wifi for studying!

A cozy spot that is sort of hidden.I like their drinks but they are a bit pricey.The outside ambiance is so relaxing to sit and have a conversation.The employees were very friendly!I got the Vanilla Toddy Latte and it was delicious!

The packaged food is not good, i unfortunately got *extremely* sick from an egg salad sandwich, which as I write this feels like my own fault.The drinks are good and the staff is great, but i was on deaths door for 36 to 48 hours.
