    This coffee shop was clean and customer service was amazing!! I love that they sell local honey and the jars are super cute! They also have a deli but we didn't get to try that as we were in a hurry. We ordered iced coffees: pistachio honey latte and teddy graham latte. These were delicious and perfectly balanced flavors, not too sweet and very coffee forward which we loved! We will definitely be back to try their other drinks and the deli!

    Italiano Sandwich
    Dora G.

    Small place but with parking space so that's a plus. They also have 4-5 small tables outside if you want alfresco and few inside. Service is fine..We were kinda waiting for our sandwich but it was already placed somewhere in their pick up spot(you just have to look for your name)they did call our names for the drinks. I don't know what to say about my iced salted caramel latte it taste different to me, but i do love their sandwich italiano and my son liked his chocolate drink.

    I will be the first to admit that I probably ordered wrong here, but I ordered the lavender lemonade. It was shocking that by the time I ordered my drink and paid for it, the drink was already done. So I grabbed my drink and made the assumption that it's Trader Joe's lemonade with a flavor shot. Not saying it's bad, but not worth the price. I was also disappointed to find out that there's no bathroom here (if there was, it wasn't obvious). With so many places around Pasadena, I'll probably skip this place if I had the choice

    I've heard really good things about this place and was looking forward to trying this place. Front door decor is super cute and the interior was very cozy. They had a patio for outdoor seating and a parking garage in the back. The menu is pretty extensive for both food and drinks but I ordered the cortado. My drink was about average and the staff didn't seem very friendly or welcoming.

    We came here after a hike, we wanted something fairly quick but good. This was the perfect choice! They have a couple veggie options for non meat eaters and they can be made vegan. I got the Green Goddess sandwich. It was really good! We all got cinnamon rolls to share, and OMG they were delicious!! Everyone was amazed at how good they are. To drink I got an Iced Decaf Cinnamon Cream Latte with non dairy milk. It was all so good!

    I love lavender and I love honey! The drinks are consistently delicious and pretty. I love that they have homemade syrups and really couldn't decide between the drinks on their seasonal lineup. Hmmmm...pumpkin spice or fig cardamom or Cara Cara Orange Almond? Or even Apple Pie Matcha if you're in the tea mood! More of what I love are their fresh and delicious pastries. The service comes with a big smile! I also love supporting Dena businesses. It is on very busy Washington Boulevard and it is still a chill place to enjoy your morning Java. Cheers to a great week!

    First sip of their amaretto orange latte sent Lavender and Honey right to the top for my California vacation espresso extravaganza! Only matched by Jones Coffee and Red Shift, this is one special spot doing the baristas of the world proud. We all enjoyed a quick Sunday morning take out but were confused why they did not have the other drinks ready but waited on everything for us to show up to begin the toast to ensure that was fresh. Small matter since we had time and this space is easy to enjoy. Wish I could've stayed! Need to move to California for sure.

    Prosciutto Fig Sandwich , Apple Pie Matcha - 16 oz. - ICED
    Déanna W.

    Was originally heading to my go to matcha spot and saw this on the way. The name caught my attention so I decided to try a new place and I'm glad I did! FOOD/DRINKS 4.5/5 Apple Pie Matcha with oat milk 5/5 - it's a seasonal drink and it's nice and refreshing, smooth, and sweetened just the right amount. It's an easy drink to slow sip and enjoy. Tasted like there might be cider at play and I'm about it! Prosciutto Fig Sandwich 4/5- the fig jam is TO DIE FOR. I'm very happy I got this sandwich. The combination of prosciutto and fig is delicious. DESSERT 5/5 Gluten Free Carrot Cake Whoopie Pie- OH MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS!!! If you are or aren't gluten free and you love carrot cake GET THIS DESSERT IMMEDIATELY!!! It is flavorful, perfectly sweetened, the perfect texture that's reminiscent of an oatmeal cream pie regarding the soft texture. It could literally just melt in your mouth. SERVICE 5/5 I thought it was a little extra personal touch to have your drinks served in different cups for here, and to go. If you get it for here it comes in a glass jar, and for to go it is in plastic. Hannah was so kind, patient, and very helpful and informative. I explained that I'd never been here before and she talked me through recommendations for everything telling me some of the most popular items for food, drinks, and desserts. I didn't try their matcha with lavender and honey that they're known for because I wanted to get the seasonal drink, so I'll be back for the other one. AMBIANCE (loved it) Such a pretty and cutesy place. There's music playing and fairy lights, flowers, honey, and tea all about. They also had the cutest cups and mugs. It's a nice place to come and have lunch in a relaxed and friendly environment. (note: they don't have WiFi). HONORABLE MENTION I so very much loved that this location had a big designated parking lot literally on the side of the building. ALSO, I decide to have the gluten free version of the sandwich and the carrot whoopie pie and was BLOWN AWAY by how soft and moist the bread, and pie were. Apparently they get their pastries and bread fresh every morning from Rising Hearts. You can literally TASTE that they were made with love. So many wonderful things to say about my experience here. If you've not been by I encourage you to give it a try. There's something there for everyone. The service is AMAZING and the food is tasty.

    Almond croissant
    Carrie M.

    I love L&H and usually come here for a latte or drip coffee! The brown sugar latte or honey latte is really good and always dependable. I also enjoy their pastries, especially the ham & cheese croissant and almond croissant. Prices are reasonable, the workers are friendly and they have indoor and outdoor seating. It's the cutest coffee shop!

    Real Pumpkin Spice Latte (PSL) - 12 oz. - HOT
    Yana's P.

    Inside the shop it's cozy, a nice place to catchup with friends, especially when it's raining. They have a variety of products from T-shirts to local vendors for pie fillings & chili oils. They have all of their seasonal drinks right there at the register, easy to read. We are 1st timers... I wasn't sure what to order, then decided on the REAL PSL- (pumpkin spice latte) I must state a disclaimer (I'm not a real coffee drinker) so with that being said if you love coffee, this is the place for you! I love that L& H does not use any artificial ingredients and they use local vendors for their organic supply. My friend is a coffee drinker & he ordered salted Carmel latte, and enjoyed the flavor but really enjoyed the coffee taste. I will back to try some other items on the menu.

    Carolina O.

    Very tasty and fresh tasting ingredients . I had the honey lavender iced latte which was very yummy as was the California "club" sandwich. Friendly service and had tables inside and outside.

    Matcha Latte - 12 oz. - HOT
    Jennie R.

    Super friendly and helpful service. It was pretty busy when I got there but they tried to be quickly without rushing people. (I had some questions about some treats for relatives who are gluten free. When the cashier was unsure of the answer she asked someone else and was able to answer the question.) The matcha latte was really tasty (tried with no sweetness). I also had a sip off of the Apple Pie Matcha and that one was really sweet, but the person who ordered loved it.

    Iced honeybee latte
    Jessica N.

    I used to come here after a hike (before the fires) and it was always a pleasant treat after a stroll in nature. It is adorned with flowers everywhere. They have seating inside and outdoors. It can get pretty chilly inside, no matter what the time of year so I usually prefer to sit outside unless it's too hot by the time I get there or I have a sweater with me. Their menu is pretty straight-forward, they do have delicious pastries, sandwiches, and such. This last time I went it I grabbed an iced Honeybee Latte with whole milk. It was just sweet enough. I do wish the espresso was stronger but the honey made up for it. While I was there, there was people coming in and out nonstop. You can tell there are a lot of locals and regulars that visit. The staff are interactive with their customers and do a great job of making everyone feel welcome and part of their coffee family. Definitely add it to your list if you're in the area :)

    Delicious pumpkin spice latte and cardamom fig latte! Yum!

    Are your pastries made in-house? They're delicious!

    Do they have indoor seating during Covid?

    Yes. It's a small shop so seating is limited.

    Do they have gluten free bread option for the toast?

    Yes! We have sliced GF brioche for toast, as well as GF rosemary ciabatta for sandwiches. We also have a variety of GF/vegan pastries & cookies, all from Rising Hearts Bakery. Thanks for asking!

    Can I buy the shirts online or do I have to physically be there?

    I believe you have to physically be in the store in order to purchase a shirt.

The menu has…read moreadjusted slowly over time, but they maintain a solid coffee and tea selection, with some food options and (at the Pasadena location) about 16 flavors of gelato. On this weekday I came for the Jasmine Milk Tea. Last time this was under the Tea Latte section, but they menu changed and there is now a dedicated Milk Tea section. And also there is a Jasmine Latte with Espresso in it, but that is under the Espresso section. I was able to get it chilled but without ice. The lowest sweetness level was 50%, but I asked nicely and they estimated they could make a 25% for me. It turned out wonderfully, extremely floral, barely any sweetness so the Jasmine aroma and taste were the dominant ones. In the food side I selected the popcorn chicken. I can take some heat but only a small bit, so I asked for the spice powder in the side. I just looove the texture of the popcorn chicken. You can see in the picture that it's a very thin breading, almost not there, but the texture seems almost as if an invisible rice flour was tossed in the outside. Still juicy in the inside, and small pieces to make every bite pop-able. The chicken comes with a ranch sauce, though to me it's a second thought. Add a hint of spice or even have the chicken as is, no ranch is needed.

Traditional espresso drinks, however, aren't their strong suit. Pros: Plenty of seating, lots of outlets, reliable Wi-Fi, and a comfortable space to work or study. They also have a solid rewards program if you visit regularly, plus various avocado toast options and Asian-inspired ice cream if you're looking for more than coffee. My favorite drink is the brown sugar latte (I'd recommend 25% or 50% sweetness), followed by the Thai tea latte. Cons: Traditional espresso drinks feel more modernized than authentic. On my most recent visit (Friday around 10:20 a.m.), I ordered a cappuccino that took 15 minutes to receive and was surprised it only came in 12 oz or 16 oz. I was expecting a smaller cup like other places. The 12 oz tasted more like a latte with extra steamed milk than a classic cappuccino. The ube and hojicha lattes were decent, but I've had better elsewhere. Parking in front is limited to 15 minutes, but there's additional one-hour parking in the rear.

It's in Burlington Arcade (which for my Ann Arbor folks is literally just like Nickels Arcade! except this one is weirdly empty - lots of empty storefronts) but, MCS is popping!

I thought it was my fault and mandarin kindly remade my drink, but when I took it to my friend, the same thing happened when she opened and closed the cup, got coffee all over my car. The cup is too flimsy. All in all, a great place for picking up coffee

Like the OG location, Mandarin 2 offers the same specialty coffee, using exotic blends and beans imported from the Yunnan province in southern China. I ordered my usual - the Toasty latte - and enjoyed the sweet, earthy, and slightly nutty flavor profile that I have come to love. Unlike the OG location though, there's actually indoor seating here, a welcome change from the grab-and-go coffee stand in Pasadena's Burlington Arcade. ****************** My Ratings: 1 Star: Terrible; just thinking about it makes me angry. 2 Stars: Wasn't a fan so Not likely to return. 3 Stars: Meh.

To make matters worse, we were told to leave the patio an hour before the shop was even closing. If the patio has different hours, that should be clearly communicated instead of asking paying customers to leave early. Overall, this was a frustrating experience. Between the unfriendly service, flavorless coffee, and being asked to leave well before closing, I won't be coming back. There are plenty of other cafés in Pasadena that offer much better coffee and treat their customers with respect.
