Kaldi Coffee & Tea

They make a lovely latte. All of their stuff is good! The vibe indoors is very pleasant, and I basically always see people sitting outdoors during the day, enjoying the ambience of a quiet corner of SoPas right across the street from the library. Kaldi's a classic, for sure.

Service was not good, I had to leave without getting anything because it was taking too long. No one ever acknowledged my presence and when I eventually asked if someone could help me I was a given a non answer, and so I left.

Their mint ice coffee is perfect summer time delight, and the cafe is a great place to sit with a book. There's also a nice community of musicians that gather on the weekends.

I come here all the time to get my work done and it hasn’t failed me yet! I am obsessed with the cozy atmosphere, it literally looks like a coffee shop out of a Nancy Meyers movie. The coffee is great and made quickly and the staff seem to love working here- I see them hanging out even when they’re not working which in my opinion is a sign of a great coffee shop with great managers. I know this is a South Pas staple and for good reason- this coffee shop has been home to many workdays for me and I am grateful for such an amazing place to cozy up and get a nice drink.

Kaldi Coffee & Tea is a corner coffee shop in South Pasadena. They serve basic coffee, tea, specialty drinks and pastries.
Interior design and layout were cool sleek and spacious, respectively. Atmosphere was nice with plenty of natural light. Young staff were nice. They have front outdoor seats for those who prefer some view.

I had a Mint Iced Coffee and it's complete whoppers! If Sauron exists this drink is perfect for him and his minions. It's blithering pathetic drink; there was not a good balance of elements in this mint IC. Drink was not brewed smoothly, not refreshing, banal plastic cup, and on top of it über milky. All I had was a tiny sip and I quivered. And I knew that it was a subpar-mediocre iced coffee. The price does not reflect the quality, I threw it away. No wonder the rating was utterly garbage. I suggest they overhaul their drinks.

Overall, I will never come back again. And waste my resources. Not sure why folks enjoy this kind of iced drink.

I often come here on a Saturday or Sunday morning to get a coffee and go for a walk. The food and coffee are good quality and reasonably priced. The shop is in an old school corner store type of location, and I'm a fan of the retro.

Dropped by to get some drinks. All the seats were taken and the interior has a very local, homey feel which I like.

Excellent Matcha latte I had never had a Mexican mocha before, but I tried it and it was outstanding. Definitely recommend and will be coming back. Their food options are also delightful.

Don’t really understand what the point of closing right in the middle of the farmers market at 5pm and shooing away all the people sitting at the outdoor tables is

the drinks are all too sweet in a suburban way

The baristas are super friendly, the pastries are so good and it's a great location to watch people with their dogs. I love the architecture of this building

This is my holy place

Amazing ambience for getting work done at a cafe. Can move to the library when it closes or if you just need a change of scene.
