Served in a glass beaker with a tasting cup is a unique presentation. They have a nice selection of pastry on display and boxes of fresh ones on the back counter. The Baristas are wells of coffee knowledge and will offer tastes for those wanting to try something new. The ambiance has the vibe of a Scandinavian medical clinic. White walls, a few scattered pictures on the walls, a green plant next to a merchandise rack. No earth tones to give a warm embrace to your day. Parking is along Lincoln Ave and side street parking is discouraged.

It's nice to have a coffee shop in the area since there aren't many options nearby, but I'll probably keep driving to Pasadena when I want a really good cup of coffee.

My friend and I came about an hour before they were closing and thankfully there was plenty of seating! I ordered the salted maple latte with oat milk, but the rose vanilla sounded equally enticing! The customer service was upbeat and friendly. Our drinks were made promptly without sacrificing the quality. I loved how well balanced the drink was and the maple flavor really came through! It also wasn't overly salted and had just the right amount of sweetness. It was rich, indulgent and creamy. It had the perfect amount of caffeine to leave me feeling energized without the jitteriness. My friend ordered a tea and pastry and raved about hers. The seating was pretty comfortable and the ambiance was great. I liked how it wasn't too noisy, so we were able to hear one another easily. The cafe is nice and bright with gorgeous paintings on the wall and motivating quotes written beside them. They have a small shared lot that can be pretty tight to get in and out of, especially when there's large vehicles parked there. Thankfully, since it was the end of the day and most of the other businesses were closed, I was able to get in and out easily, with plenty of spots available! I will definitely be back the next time I'm in the area and in need of a tasty caffeinated beverage!

I kept hearing Bevel in Altadena had great coffee and as I'm a self proclaimed coffee aficionado I…read morehad to go. Well everyone is spot on. I had a dreamy Queen Bee latte( espresso, local honey, vanilla extract and almond milk) I would love it more if they had coconut milk as it's better for you and the environment than oat or almond milk. Took home a salt bagel and pistachio croissant. Made a Canadian bacon and egg on half the bagel at home at it was delicious. I'm also a bagel snob as I lived in NY for 8 years. This was a good bagel. Saving the croissant for tomorrow so I'll update later but it's huge and looks flaky and yummy. The place is darling, definitely not your typical private equity coffee spot. The staff was super friendly and when I couldn't decide which pastry to get, the young man asked if I wanted sweet or savory. Love a place with great customer service There is the added bonus aid being across from the Armenian market and Prime Pizza, all places you need to go in Altadena.

They are truly some of the kindest, most welcoming people, and you can feel the love they've poured into every detail.

Whether you're stopping by for a quick coffee or spending time catching up with friends, it just feels good being there. You can tell this isn't just a business it's a passion. So grateful to have a place like this in the community

Ever since I had Stumptown coffee in Portland, Oregon 7 years ago, I had wished this coffee chain…read morewould open a shop near me. My wish came true a couple of years ago, and I finally got a chance to visit this location in Pasadena. The inside is modern with two large tables that can seat four and three small tables for 2. There is also seating outside and a parking lot in the back. I got the iced oatmilk latte and it was delicious. They don't charge extra for non-diary milk which I greatly appreciate! There is free WI-FI. The coffee was good but I do wish they had more food and pastry options: like pistachio croissant or coffee cake, bagels and a few breakfast items. The almond croissant I got was just ok.

I wound up sitting outside, but the refreshing iced tea made it all bearable.

It was my first time here and the barista was very friendly in explaining their menu and pastry selection. They have a new menu every season but since it was my first time here, I opted to go for a staff favorite, the Cinnamon Creamed Honey Latte (the other is the Brown Sugar Latte). I chose the Coconut Oatmeal Chai Cookie Sandwich for the novelty but I found that it was rather sweet for my taste. So for anyone interested in their cookie sandwiches, I definitely recommend getting a drink that's not sweet to balance out the flavors! Otherwise I'd absolutely come again to try out the rest of their menu.

I was glad to find out that there is an adjacent parking lot especially in this weather. The place has both indoor and outdoor seating. The indoor seating is limited. The cafe menu includes unique lattes, espresso bar, coffee, cold brew, tea, toast , sandwiches, salads bar, parfait, and kids menu. They also have fresh pastries. I ordered the following: - Picnic pastrami sandwich x2 4 /5 It had Pastrami, jack cheese, pickles, onions, lettuce on sourdough baguette. - Caprese sandwich x2 5/5 Mozzarella, tomato, basil , olive oil, balsamic glaze on Ciabatta. - Chocolate croissant 5/5 Was flaky, buttery and filled with chocolate. - Matcha ginger cranberry scone 5/5 Was very delicious - Mango coconut matcha 4/5 It was a refreshing drink. I love mango, so I wish I could taste more mango flavor in the drink - Iced teddy graham latte 5/5 It was a traditional latte sweetened with honey syrup, Heilala vanilla bean paste & cinnamon milk as it was described. It was very refreshing and delightful one! The flavors balanced perfectly and the sweetness was on point. The staff were nice. The place has welcoming vibes. We received our order very quickly. It's a nice place to stop by and enjoy a refreshing drink or grab a fresh pastry or a sandwich.

I sounded like a regular as I ordered, so there's that! I ordered a Horchata Latte and a Mocha Mexicano, both medium sized and hot and a Tres Leches Muffin. The muffin was handed over when I got to the window and the coffees quickly followed. I sampled both coffees and kept the Horchata for myself. The Mocha is ready for the next day. The muffin was delicious, but fair warning, it's messy too. Both coffees could have been a little hotter, but mixing with milk will do that. Also be wary of entering and exiting. You might miss the entrance on the way by - like I did. And the curve to get out is less than accommodating as you merge into traffic. 4.8 rounds to 5. A welcome new experience.
