They might have vegan options but they don’t care if they mess up. I was given a bacon egg and cheese sandwich when I ordered the vegan one and the manager dismissed me and didn’t even offer a refund. If you MUST eat here, check your order before leaving!!! But also just go to Philz down the street, same vegan options but better quality and won’t serve you carcass and think it’s funny.

Grabbed a quick coffee and blueberry muffin. Clean, quick, friendly, and also tasty coffee and muffin

Good coffee, comparable to the other big coffee chain, seemed to be a little pricey for what I got. ( I'm used to paying more for coffee , seemed a little excessive?)

One of the best Macha lattes I've ever had. Barista was friendly and warm. Comfy space room read, study or just hang out.

Eddy was great at the cashier but Kiara, Valentina, and another female working during this shift spent a good five minutes talking to each other, not making orders even though several people had ordered.

Coffee and Plants Cafe is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere, filled with lush greenery and the comforting aroma of freshly brewed coffee. The ambiance is peaceful, making it the perfect spot to unwind or get some work done.

The coffee is exceptional—smooth, rich, and expertly crafted. Their plant-based menu is a dream, offering delicious and wholesome options that cater to all dietary needs. I highly recommend their oat milk latte and avocado toast—pure perfection!

The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, always ensuring you have the best experience. Plus, their commitment to sustainability and plant-based living makes supporting this cafe feel even better.

If you're a coffee lover and appreciate a cozy, eco-conscious space, Coffee and Plants Cafe is a must-visit. Can't wait to come back!

Friendly baristas and the best coffee! Always happy to grab a latte here. Plenty of seating inside plus a large patio for those warmer months.

I like their Havana cappuccino! It’s ridiculously good! I’ve had it in decaf as well and it did not disappoint. Their turkey ciabatta is really good too! Today they were out of the turkey ciabatta and the server gave me some croissants for free just because they were out of the turkey ciabatta. They might of had extra croissants to get rid of but the point is he didn’t have to give me anything. I find myself looking for Peet’s over Starbucks now

There isn’t a Peet’s near where I live, so whenever I get to one (like, once or twice a year), it’s always a monumental occasion for me. I have a particular ask for my drink, and the employees accommodated my request. They’re very nice, the store is clean, the baked good are delish. There is a cute rose garden right outside, make sure to stop and smell the flowers before you leave. I recommend this location. A++ very nice atmosphere and nice employees.

I just had the worst experience at Peet's in Pasadena on Lake at around 2:30 pm today....11-24-24. The person making the drinks had the worst attitude and was very combative and rude. As the customer I questioned (I have the right), how she was making the drink, and she didn't like being questioned. In fact, she said that if I didn't like what she was doing, then I could do her job...WOW!

I asked to speak to someone in charge, and she proceeded to tell me that she was the shift lead and there was no one else to speak to. At one point, she threw a temper tantrum and said she didn't need to deal with me, so she gave me her back and walked into the back room.

Someone else did come out and tried to find out what was going on, and although she was nice...everything was blame, blame, blame the customer, and excuses....really! In fact, at one point I said "whatever happened to the customer being right".

I never, and I repeat I never, complain. I have owned a retail business for 19 years, so I sympathize with anyone who deals with the public. Every customer thinks 'they're special', and it's challenging to deal with so many different personalities.

All she had to do was offer to remake the drink, which is standard response anywhere....but she didn't, her ego got in the way and she took it personal, obviously a sign of immaturity.

My partner and I go to Peet's several times a week, if not on Lake, on Foothill....in fact, when we're in other cities we go out of our way to find other Peet's locations throughout SoCal...Huntington Beach (unfortunately closed recently) Seal Beach, Costa Mesa, Tustin, and Irvine...etc.

I'm a creature of habit, so I order the same drink every time. On Foothill, the cashiers and baristas already know our order...so the drink is often waiting for us right after paying. I'm a believer in gratitude, so I tip at the cashier, and when the drinks are given to me, I tip again.

I realize I shouldn't have allowed the woman to upset me, but I did, so before I left the building, I threw my drink and pastry in the trash.

Again....I never complain, but writing this review isn't enough. Tomorrow morning I'm going to call corporate, to escalate this up the chain.

Even though I intend to call corporate, I'm someone who doesn't like confrontation, so Peet's on Lake, doesn't need to deal with me/us anymore....this bad experience hasn't tainted me against Peet's in general, but it has at that location.

Service consistently excellent. Would be great if Peet's could modernize the interiors by brightening them up by painting, upgrading furniture and lighting.
