I ordered the Horchata Latte (Large - 20oz -…read more$7.45 - 3 Shots of Espresso) with Pink Printed Photograph (additional $2) and Vanilla Cold Foam (extra $1.25). WOW!! I felt jittery and awake. This coffee felt like dessert. (Quick Note: If you print a photo on a drink, it's not travel friendly. Staff recommends that printed photo beverages are enjoyed on site.) I arrived at Bake Sale Cafe (Azusa) on a weekday (around 7:12AM). I quickly found parking in the business's customer parking lot. This coffee shop has poor visibility despite being a brisk drive from Azusa Pacific University. Staff (receipt says Stephanie) is professional, welcoming, and knowledgeable. Stephanie easily and respectfully answered all my questions. Stephanie also worked hard. My coffee took about six minutes. As mentioned, I enjoyed the Horchata Latte (Large - 20oz - $7.45 - 3 Shots of Espresso) with Pink Printed Photograph (additional $2) and Vanilla Cold Foam (extra $1.25). The top tasted like melted vanilla ice cream, and the coffee tasted clean & fresh despite the sugary aftertaste. This drink has POWER despite its prim, cutesy appearance. I felt my fingers jitter throughout the day as the sugar and THREE SHOTS of espresso slammed into me. YUM! On ambiance, Bake Sale Cafe (Azusa) is very clean and adorable with its light pastel colors. There's about five tables and two counters. And there's a high chair for kids & a water station. Bake Sale Cafe (Azusa) also has utility. This is a great, hidden spot to study. There's about five electrical outlets with big adapters for extra slots and USB ports. There's customer internet with password; there's also a QR code that customers can scan for internet information. Also, there's a gender neutral customer restroom just outside; customers must ask Staff for the restroom keys. The location is very clean and comfortable. Overall, Bake Sale Cafe (Azusa) is a literal hidden gem. Despite the bad visibility, there's visible passion and effort at this business. If curious, this is a very easy recommendation. 4.8 out of 5

I had the cutest Agua Fresca (Agua de Paraiso) which was Jamaica iced tea with Sugar-Free Vanilla Foam. For $2 extra, your selfie photo can be added on top and super cute like mine {*:*}. The drink menu is extensive and impressive, in Alpha order: Americano, Cappuccino, Espresso, Chai Lattes, Cold Brew, Espresso, Horchata, Lemonade, Matcha Cloud, Mexican Hot Chocolate (Abuelita and Mazapan), Tea (hot or iced) and more! They didn't have the Pumpkin Pie Horchata, as recommended by Sam, so I shall return! It was hard to decide which cookie to get, I chose the Banana Nut, but was so very tempted to try the S'mores or Dubai Chocolate cookie. The entrance does not face the street, I drove past and had to go back around the center divider. They have a small parking lot, no charge or time restriction, stay awhile! Sincerely, Rosemary

I don't drink coffee much but when I do, I drink at penny coffee roasters. As well as having…read moreincredible coffee, which started me on my coffee journey, the staff are incredible, the managers Adam and David do an amazing job to make the place feel like a warm and caring environment. Employees there are very kind and seem to take an interest in everyone who walks in the door. Recently an incident occurred that I have nothing but respect for how the staff handled. A now former regular, who I will be keeping anonymous for obvious reasons, was banned from the store for openly racist remarks and verbally harassing staff. I was not personally present for it, but that is accurate to my experience with said person. They have repeatedly made racist and classist comments and have pretty heavy handedly push their ideological views to me. After banning said customer, they proceeded to threaten and harass the staff, from what I saw in regards to the banning, the manager Adam handled it with more respect and elegance than I believed necessary. Despite his tact, she took that as an opportunity to go on a tangent of excessive profanity and slurs. I think it's very telling about the type of people who work at Penny that they value maintaining a safe and welcoming environment even in the face of bullying and harassment. I've never felt more inclined to go to penny than I do now. Thank you guys for what you do and keep up the good work. You guys are rock stars fr!!

I've been a loyal customer of Pennys Coffee since they opened in Azusa. Over the years, I've spent…read morethousands of dollars here and have recommended the shop to many friends and others in the coffee community. Unfortunately, my experience with the shop changed because of repeated interactions with the store manager, Adam and the event that had just happened. I want the owners to be aware of concerns I have regarding the atmosphere created by management. On multiple occasions, I have heard Adam speak negatively about the owners and other baristas in front of customers. I have also experienced him bringing personal and political opinions into conversations while working, which I feel creates an uncomfortable/unprofessional environment. He works every Monday so I can't even sit on the only couch and drink my coffee in peace, he's always talking nonsense and forcing his personal opinions down my throat. He never stops talking, and if you try to share your opinion, he talks right over you. He has a veryyy hard time accepting viewpoints that differ from his own. He's honestly on some sort of power trip. The most concerning incident occurred recently when Adam yelled in my face while inside the coffee shop!! Then the other barista, David got involved with his encouragement during this interaction. They surrounded me and were trying to intimidate me together and at that time there were no other customers in the store, and when I tried to speak to them to tell them to stop yelling at me- they went at me harder to the point I had to literally run out of the shop bc I didn't feel safe there. It's the first time I have ever had two men corner me and yell at me- it was honestly traumatizing. After leaving, I informed David that I would never be returning. I believed that would be the end of the situation. However, David provided Adam with my personal phone number without my permission, and Adam contacted me by text after I had already left the store in an effort to intimidate me further. During that exchange, Adam also accused me of being racist. I found it completely inappropriate that my personal information was shared without my consent so that a workplace conflict could continue outside of the store. I also want to address an issue with David. Throughout my visits, you have repeatedly attempted to hug me or touch me when I came into the shop. Regardless of your intentions, this made me uncomfortable. Customers should not be touched without their consent. I also work in the business of customer service, and I understand the importance of professionalism. I would never speak negatively about my employer to customers, push personal or political views on people supporting my business, yell at a customer, or use a customer's personal information to continue a confrontation after they leave. It's disappointing because I did like this coffee shop and wanted to continue supporting it. However, my experiences with Adam and David traumatized me. I hope the owners take these concerns seriously and address them so other customers do not have similar experiences.

​Honestly, the hospitality here today was next level. I had a slightly complicated order and felt…read morekind of bad about it, but the cashier was incredibly nice and helpful. When I apologized for being difficult, she completely brushed it off and assured me it wasn't a problem at all. It's rare to find people who actually care like that anymore.

I haven't experienced any negatives in that at least 8-10 times I've been in. The service has always been good, haven't seen any of the tables be left dirty. And the lines have been moving. Thank you so much.

I loved this shop…read more I stopped by before work and got a cold brew. The staff was kind and accommodating and the space was open with lots of seating. My drink was superb! Their cold brew is sooo balanced and delicious. Check it out if you're in the area!

(Beware that the foam is made from dairy) So good. Highly recommend ordering off the seasonal menus. Really love the creativity of the menu. The servers are so helpful in explaining what the ingredients of the drinks and recommending pastries. We stayed to chat until closing time at 4pm! There are lots of tables and chairs, even comfy ones by the front window. Parking on the street in front or in the lot behind the shop.

I had a good experience at Yoxi Teatime (Glendora). I ordered the Blushe Tea ($5 -- 70% Sugar)…read more It's Oolong Tea with Rose Flavoring. It's very sweet, very floral, and refreshing. It's also extremely affordable, chill, and thirst quenching. It's a satisfying drink on a hot day. I arrived at Yoxi Teatime (Glendora) on Tuesday (around 1:14PM). Parking is easy since the parking lot is BIG and spacious. Staff is very friendly, welcoming, and professional. Staff quickly answered any questions. Customers can order at the counter or self-service kiosk. My drink took two minutes and five seconds. Quick! As mentioned, I liked the Blushe ($5 -- 70% Sugar). It's a tea with good ingredients, but personally I'd recommend selecting a lower sweetness. Also, if you're not a fan of rose or perfume-like drinks, this might not be fit your palate. Still, it's prepared thoughtfully, and the price is ridiculously competitive. I sipped with a small smile. On ambiance, Yoxi Teatime (Glendora) is an AMAZING option for study/work. The location is well-maintained and generous! The air condition is STRONG, and the location is chill and refreshing. There's also about four electrical outlets. And there's customer internet with password; details are proudly displayed on the Game Corner counter and the Ordering counter. There's also a gender neutral restroom in the back. In addition, Yoxi Teatime (Glendora) is charming and very clean. This business has fun colors and aesthetic decor. There's about five tables, and there's a Game Corner (etc: Chess, Guess Who, Mancala, Etc). There's even two mini crane games to play. I also enjoyed the soft, upbeat pop music. It's a charming, hidden local gem. Overall, Yoxi Teatime (Glendora) is a local business that still has heart and passion. The drinks are also ridiculously affordable and refreshing. If nearby and searching for a comfortable study/work spot, this is an easy recommendation. 4.5 out of 5

We ordered the following: 1) Mango Green Tea w/ Mango Popping Boba (4.8/5) 2) Sunrise Tea w/ White Crystal Boba (4.5/5) 3) Lychee Milk Tea w/ Lychee Jelly (4.8/5) Nice decor. Forgot to take pics of our drinks (terrible memory!). Oh well...maybe next time. Parking is easy even though it is in a semi-busy plaza. Recommended. Will return to try another drink in the future.

The young woman who was in the store all by herself needs training in customer service…read more Desperately! I asked her what the ingredients were in the non dairy milk. She looked at me and said, I don't know. And she just sat, like I was bothering her. I said, you don't know? Is there a way to check? She asked if I wanted to know the ingredients. I said yes. She finally got up, went into the back and took a picture of the ingredients. Ingredients were acceptable. I ordered 30% ice. My daughter ordered 100% ice. Same flavor. At the end of our drinks, I had more ice than my daughter. How does that work? I picked up the drinks and said, just showing you. I have more ice left over than my daughter. Her response? Well, it keeps the drinks colder, longer. I drink fast. I just wanted a little ice. (Here it is, 4 hours later and I still have ice! ) I was given the option of how much ice I wanted. I gave my choice and it was ignored. Then, I was met with rudeness. I am sure she has potential. She just needs to learn to listen to customers and not be rude. And it might help if your store was better staffed. Oh, and the drink was good.

They roast their own beans in-house, and it's the kind of place where you can appreciate coffee in its purest form. There's no need to drown it in syrups or milk to mask the flavor--high-quality beans speak for themselves. Coffee nerds, you've found your happy place. Bonus points for plenty of parking and its location inside the Glendora Public Market food hall, making it a cool, comfortable spot to relax and enjoy a great cup of coffee, especially during the summer.

The quality, consistency, and passion they put into their drinks really stand out. I've tried multiple things here, including their matcha and espresso, and everything has been impressive. The espresso was especially smooth and gave me the perfect kick I needed without losing the flavor. You can tell they really care about what they're making and enjoy the craft behind it. I'll definitely be coming back. The only hard part is deciding what to try next because everything I've had so far has been such high quality. Penny Roasters has quickly become a place I understand why people keep coming back to.

Ordered two milk tea drinks through TooGoodtoGo App. I was surprised I could adjust the sugar level and get a free topping. However, I didn't love my drinks. I think 50% sugar made it tasteless. I always order 50% sugar at all other boba places and they all taste great. The rainbow popping boba was a disappointment as well. They tasted sour and ruined the milk tea taste. I was hoping to like my drinks. The prices are affordable and maybe if I'm in the area again, I might give it another try.
