I've heard of Salted Butter before from a friend and before going somewhere I decided to stop by. I was forewarned about a line but showing up at 9am on a Thursday it was not bad at all. Parking: Parking can be found behind salted butter and there a few. However, there is plenty of spots around on the street including the shopping center located to the west of it. Menu: There a bunch of options here for everyone anyone to enjoy. I picked a variety of things but their known for their pastries. I picked up some croissants, croissant apple fritters, croissant cinnamon rolls, and a spinach artichoke dip croissant. The staff here were exceptional as they led me through each pastry and their own process of baking them and describing their flavors. So to be fair, it does get a tad busy and I admit that my review was based on what I experienced. But if you encounter a line, it is completely on you to either wait or not. But I completely encourage you to come back because it is worth it! Cheers! read more

Was very intrigued on visiting this place after seeing so many videos online on this cafe, but sadly it was very underwhelming and overpriced. I would think they would warm up your pastries if you're paying $6+ for them. Also was given the wrong pastry. The coffee itself was pretty good I got a Salted Brown Butter latte! read more

Went during the long weekend, waited about 25-30 minutes to order. The line went fairly quickly and the shop did have umbrellas up front for the heat. I got the spinach and artichoke danish, tomato burrata danish, a chocolate babka and a plain croissant. The pastries were incredible and definitely worth the wait and hype. The staff was friendly and very accommodating. Overall highly recommend! Also a fun tip: if you are just ordering coffee, you can completely skip the line and order at the register. read more

Vacationing in Pasadena and heard so much about this bakery so decide to include it in our pastry walk! Darling shop , limited seating area but with a wide varieties of baked goods at a decent prices ! The apple fritter croissant was my fav of the 4 items I purchased ! The other pastries was a tad too sweet for me they do t skimp on frosting /icing but still enjoyed them ! We also got a passionfruit tea which my least fav the tea was overly sweet no passionfruit flavor at all ! Worth a stop and wouldn't mind coming back to try other items ! The staff were patient and friendly! read more

10/10 visit... there was of course a wait as I had expected but other than that, it was worth waiting. Salted Butter's brown sugar peach matcha is unique, I've never heard nor tried anything like it before. The collab with Prince Street Pizza is the best thing they could've done. The Naught Knot pizza is so buttery, flaky and flavorful. I don't stay too close to the Pasadena area but I definitely have plans of visiting again. read more

There is definitely hype around this spot but honestly I can see why. Small shop that has a decent and good looking selection of pastries and even some savories options but it seems like the quality revolves around timing and attention to detail. Lemme explain The drinks are decent but nothing I would talk about. The coffee isn't the strong point as the sweet element carries the lattes here and that's enough for a lot of people, so why not grab that tiramisu cold brew or brown butter maple latte? The pastries themselves are good but not great. The fritters have a satisfying crunch layer but if they've been sitting then the cold temp and slightly chewy bread brings it down a bit. The cookie was served to me looking ok but when I picked it up it fell apart like soft cookie lol. No heads up on waiting for it to settle but you'll notice an element of stress among the employees so I can understand. The pizza croissant (naughty knot) was actually pretty good but messy as it falls apart since puff pastry isn't meant to support melted cheese and oily pepperoni for long so fold it! It gets pretty crowded inside and there are two benches you can sit on but I think so wall mounted tables might have been better. Overall I wouldn't mind recommending a visit but it's probably worth 10 minutes of waiting for me and that's pushing it. read more

Simple yet unique pastries and drinks. At around 2:30PM on a Tuesday, the pizza pastries JUST sold out (was told "just 20 minutes ago"), so I had to order what was left. - CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE $4.50: sooo soft, strong taste of brown sugar. Not overly sweet, even with the generous bits of chocolate chips. i like the large chunks of sea salt on top! - CROOKIE (croissant cookie) $8.00: flaky, crunch croissant, with a soft decadent cookie on top, and filled with an ooey gooey cookie batter-like center. this can easily get too heavy, but I quite enjoyed the few bites I could handle (saved the other half for the next day). worth trying at least once - Apple fritter $6.25: a cylindrical shaped fritter with ample apple chucks, and expected cinnamoniness and glaze. - Strawberry Coast $5.50: strawberry compote and coconut milk, with a bit of seltzer fizz? I was told by the cashier it would be really sweet, but it wasn't as bad as I was expecting! would get again. - VANILLA BEAN LATTE $6.50: SO enjoyed! I would definitely come back, i'm itching to try their savory pastries!! recommending going on weekdays, maybe around noon. We were able to find parking right away in the lot, tho it is a bit tight read more

had to stop by salted butter before i headed back home. it was about an hour before their closing time, there was still a line outside of about 20 ppl. they only let a handful in at a time. once i got inside...uhm there was like nothing left lol the early bird def gets the worm on this one! welp, i got just a butter croissant and spinach artichoke danish (soooo delicious) and tiramisu cold brew. apollo loved his butter croissant and i loved my spinach artichoke danish! i can see the hype. ill have to visit again , very early in the morning. i wish they would inform the line of what the current inventory is. ppl can decide if they want to wait or not. bc if i would have known, i would have left. i waited about 25m outside. parking: small lot, parking is nearly impossible when its busy. street parking is avail about a block away. read more

Another great bakery in Pasadena, I'm so jealous. Prior to this one there is Artisanal Goods by Car Bakery & Badash Bakes. This one is more similar to Artisanal Goods by Car. Same line you got to wait in like Car, somewhat similar offerings and price point. I had a raspberry almond croissant, and Earl grey morning bun. Both hit the spot, I'd say both had that distinct taste you're looking for of your on the hunt for unique pastries like me. I also got a coffee, the salted maple coffee. Coffee wise it's good, but if you come to Pasadena for great coffee shops you might want to stick with that. I think I prefer the coffee at Car more. The line is justified and Salted Butter made it that much harder to decide where to get pastries the next time you're in Pasadena. read more

Came to try this spot out for the first time. Line wasn't too bad waited about 30 minutes. Coffee was strong but I asked for it to be less sweet and it came out a bit salty lol for my liking. It's very fast paced so you can't really sit down and enjoy your pastry and coffee inside. Prince st pizza on a croissant was so delicious10/10 would recommend! Saving my cinnamon roll for later hehe. read more

Stopped by for a quick snack to drink with my coffee and found this hidden gem! There were so many delicious looking pastries that I wanted to purchase, but I decided on the Best Selling Chocolate Cupcake. It was uniquely delicious. Especially the mini fruit on top!

I'd tried Salted Butter before when a friend brought me an almond croissant and a chocolate chip cookie. Both left a lasting impression, so I was excited to finally visit in person while I was in the Pasadena area. When we arrived, there was a small line out the door which we waited about 15 minutes before ordering. A friend had mentioned that you can walk in directly to order drinks only, but we decided to wait and place our entire order at once. The line first moves through the pastry display before you order drinks and pay at the register. We ordered seven pastries and one coffee which came out to about $53 including tax. While none of the new items we tried were particularly memorable, everything was enjoyable. The almond croissant and chewy chocolate chip cookie remained my favorites and were easily the standout items of the visit. The Iced Good Vanilla Bean Coffee was also yummy - flavorful without being overly sweet. One downside was the flow of the space. Drink pickups happen directly in front of the entrance, so customers often have to cut through those waiting in line for pastries. The shop itself is quite small, with only two benches available for seating, making it feel crowded during busy periods. Parking was a bit confusing. Most of the spots had signage but there appeared to be only two spaces specifically designated for Salted Butter customers. read more

Salted Butter is a small family-owned business founded by Haruna & Johnny Romo. Haruna started baking her signature treats in her tiny kitchen and has now expanded to a small storefront. For the record, there are very few things I will stand in line for and food is not one of them, especially in the heat or the rain. Every time I drive by Salted Butter there is a line - rain or shine. I finally got lucky! I passed by around 1:15 pm and there was no one outside so I pulled into the parking lot. There were a few people ahead of me inside, and about 30 seconds later there was a line out the door. However, there were plenty of pastries in the case and more freshly out of the oven. A nice young man was taking pastry orders. If you want a beverage, you request it at the register when you pay. They use La Colombe coffee, which is like. The staff were all friendly and worked well together. I can imagine they must be tired at the end of the day. I heard the man tell someone that the Cinnamon Bun is their signature item, so I ordered it. It's different than a standard cinnamon bun because it is made from croissant dough and not a rich dough. The inner layers were light, flaky, & buttery. The cream cheese icing was thin and not overly sweet and the cinnamon filing wasn't overbearing. It had a good flavor & consistency and I like that it wasn't heavy. I also liked the crunchy ends and could taste the quality. However, I wouldn't stand in line for it but if I happen to pass by and there isn't a line I'll stop in and give something else a try. *Shared parking lot or street parking. *Order cakes & pastries online. read more

I went on a Sunday morning and waited only for 20 minutes!! I went at the perfect time where they switch from morning to afternoon pastries, so I got to try everything! The Ham & Cheese Croissant ($6.75) was my absolute FAVORITE out of everything I tried. I NEED to go back and try their other croissants. The French Onion Soup Danish ($7.25) was highly recommended, but I'd personally skip. I probably would've enjoyed it 10x more if it was warm and fresh out of the oven. The Croissant Apple Fritter ($6.25) was delicious. The Earl Grey Scone ($5.25) had a great flavor, but I'm just personally not a scone person. The Croissant Cinnamon Roll ($6.50) was so delicious. The frosting is not too sweet and the concept is unique. The Pizza Croissant Roll ($6.75) -- I thought I would enjoy because of all the cheese, but it didn't end up being anything special. The Tiramisu Latte was also great! read more

I finally got around to trying this place ever since it blew up on social media. When I saw they were doing a limited time principal street pizza collab I knew I had to try it. They have a small parking lot but there is also street parking down the street. It is a small take out spot. Once you get in they take your order at the display and then you move forward to pay at the register. I waited in line for about an hour and I would honestly do it again for the pizza croissant. I also got the spinach artichoke croissant, earl gray orange morning bun, cinnamon roll, and the ham and cheese croissant. For all of them I recommend warming them up a little when you get home. All of them were so flavorful and I understand the hype around this place now. read more

Salted Butter Company is a breath of fresh air in the LA bakery scene. Right off the bat, the hospitality is standout -- I'm talking the kind of attentive, genuine service you usually only find in fine dining. From the person taking my order to the team boxing pastries and making coffee, everyone was incredible kind. They even went out of their way to find a sticker for my son. In today's world, that level of service is rare and much appreciated. Be prepared for a bit of wait, as the shop is always bustling and indoor seating is unfortunately non-existent. However, the staff works efficiently to keep the line moving. As someone who can be a bit indecisive at the counter, I ended up ordering a bit of everything. Here is the breakdown: -Cinnamon Roll ($6.50): A clear crowd favorite for a reason. It's made with laminated croissant dough, giving it an airy, flaky texture. The vanilla bean cream cheese glaze hits that perfect balance of sweet and tart. -Earl Grey Orange Morning Bun ($6.50): Another winner. The bun is buttery and crispy, with the Earl Grey tea and subtle citrus notes coming through beautiful in every bite. -Ham & Cheese Croissant ($6.75): This is a very high-quality, artisan take on a classic. It features next-level flakiness and rich, gooey Gruyère. My only wish? I'd love to see a version with Jalapeños for a bit of a kick! -Chocolate Croissant ($6.00) & Chocolate Chip Cookie ($4.50): Both were solid. The croissant was delicate with a great crunch, and the cookie had that perfect salty-sweet profile thanks to a hit of sea salt. -Strawberry Rhubarb Pie Danish ($7.75): I didn't get a bite of this one -- my son claimed it immediately, as he's a huge dan of anything strawberry. I tried the Brown Butter Maple Latte ($6.90), which was a bit too sweet for my taste and it didn't quite incorporate the syrup fully into the espresso. On the other hand, my wife's Spanish Latte ($6.90) was excellent -- smooth, creamy, and much more balanced. While the pastries are undeniably top-tier, there are two things you should prepare for: the crowd and the cost. Since there is a lack of dedicated seating, it's more of a grab-and-go destination than place to linger over a morning coffee. It's easy to go overboard when everything looks this good, but it definitely left my wife with a bit of sticker shock! I'll definitely be back, though I might have to make it a solo mission next time -- or at least keep the receipt hidden from my wife! read more

I have had this bakery on my saved list for months and finally had the chance to go. (I have already gone back three times since I went the first time) I have been pretty lucky every time I go and the line isn't too crazy. Max I waited both times were 20 minutes? I have gone either early in the morning or an off time like around 1:30ish. They still have a pretty good selection at those times. My go-tos now are the butter croissant, cinnamon roll and kouign amann(when they have it). I got the crookie today and it was DELICIOUS!! The apple fritter is a nice sweet treat too. I love how flaky and buttery everything is. The staff is ALWAYS on point and friendly. I know it gets really busy but every time I go the staff is always smiling and very patient when you can't decide what to get. If you drive by and don't see a line you need to pop in! Love everything about this place! My daughters even have a Salted Butter sticker on their table. They love it everything time we go! read more

I stopped by around 8 am and there was no line which I was worried about since I've seen the line wrap around the building. There's a parking lot next door with some parking spots. I got the salted maple coffee, an almond croissant and a cinnamon roll. The coffee and cinnamon roll were good, but nothing I'd drive out of my way for. The croissant was incredible though and I'd want to try all the other pastries. Would definitely come back. read more

I've been to Salted Butter a couple times now and always go back & forth between a 4 or 5 star. Service wise this place is great, everyone is very friendly and efficient when it comes to ordering pastries and coffee. (Tip: if you only want coffee skip the line and go to the front). As for the pastries and drinks let's get into it - Salted Butter Maple Latte (8/10) First time trying it was just okay. Second time it was delicious, would recommend. - Chocolate Chip Cookie (8/10) Really solid cookie, just not a fan of the price but I respect it. - Croissant Cinnamon Roll (8.5/10) My favorite pastry, was flaky and moist. I did take off some of the frosting, after that it was really good. Overall a great experience, I did try a few other items that I don't recall good or bad. Would I go again? Yes! read more

Absolutely delicious baked goods and coffee conveniently located near multiple hospitals! Luckily, we went on a day where the line was not around the block. We tried the classic salted maple butter latte and seasonal banana coffee, both iced and both excellent! Also got a variety of pastries and baked goods, from savory to sweet. The standouts were the apple fritter and chocolate chip cookie. Also would love to commend the employee who noticed my husband pushing a stroller while carrying multiple beverages and a box of pastries and helped him walk back to the car. read more

Salted Butter - Variety of pastries - Desserts Near Me - Pasadena, California

True this local Pasadena spot after seeing it go viral for numerous reasons on social media. I had to try both coffee and pastries although the place is known for pastries. There was a long line on a Friday morning still and the set up was a little odd. The line to pay covers half of the pastries displayed so I missed out on ordering some I didn't see. It was a very busy setting and ordering feels rushed. My order came out to around $40 for 4 pastries and a coffee. The pastries were good, not great and so was the coffee after mixing. I'd recommend it if the line isn't too long and you're in the area but it wouldn't be something I'd go out of my way for again. Parking is also not the best. read more

We tried a box full of pastries delivered by a friend. All the pastries were very crispy. Not too sweet, other than the cookie. Wish some had a stronger flavor profile that's it, Peach pastry: bread was very crispy and it was pretty peachy. Just imagine an apple puff pastry but with peach. Early Grey Morning: was mostly pastry with a hint of earl grey, I would have personally enjoyed more of an earl grey flavor. Brown Butter Salted Chocolate Chip Cookie: was very sweet but nice and chewy. The sweetest thing we had in our box. Bacon Potato Croissant: was crispy and creamy, mainly potato and croissant. Ham & Cheese croissant: was ok, as it sounds, it was ham & cheese. Very croissanty. A lot of bread. read more

Stopped in on a Friday afternoon and it was still a struggle to find parking but there was no line. I tried the Earl Grey Morning Bun and that was a party of sandy flaky buttery goodness with a subtle hit of Earl Grey tea. Their brown butter chocolate chip cookie was satisfyingly gooey and rich in the center with a crusty edge. It freezes well too. The interior is homey but only a few wooden benches to wait for your drinks. It's a grab and go type of bakery staffed by a super friendly team. read more

I've been to this spot multiple times now, and it's consistently excellent. Their croissants are perfectly flaky, buttery, and always fresh. I recently ordered their strawberry compote cupcakes for a work party, and they were a huge hit. Not only were they absolutely beautiful, but they also took my personal request to incorporate florals for a bridal theme seriously. The cupcakes turned out gorgeous, incredibly fresh, and just sweet enough without being overpowering. I've also tried both the vanilla bean latte and the brown sugar latte, but neither have been that great imo. But the pastries are everything and the reason I would keep coming back. read more

I really wanted to like Salted Butter but just no.. To be honest, this rating is more about the gap between the hype and the reality. When you're paying premium prices, you expect a certain level of excellence that just wasn't there. The line moves somewhat fast though. The croissant cinnamon roll was a letdown, especially the frosting which was too thick which is pretty hard to justify for $8. And the apple fritter was too dense and gummy. Everything was overly sweet. The overall inconsistency make it hard to say I want to come back and try more things. For a place this famous, the quality just doesn't live up to the price tag. Parking is an inconvenience too. read more

I was so excited to come try this place ever since seeing it go viral. I was having a bad day and figured a pick me up would be perfect but honestly I left feeling worse. As soon as we walked in around 2pm, the girl with the black hair taking the pastry orders seemed so annoyed and was very rude even though there was no line behind us. I ended up getting a fruit funfetti cupcake which was honestly more gross tasting whipped cream than cake and it was way overpriced. Then the line flowed to the register and I wanted to try a seasonal drink (which most were covered up with tape marking them sold out) so after carefully reading the other options I decided on a Banana Tiramisu Latte. We were told that the menu allegedly lists every ingredient in there but once getting it, I realized it had cinnamon which i'm allergic to and wasn't listed in the ingredients. I went up to the tall blonde girl at the register and asked if I could please have a different drink seeing as I paid $8 and couldn't even drink it. She tried to charge me another $8 for a remake and very snarky and rude told me that I should be making sure to read before I order something next time. I informed her that their list of ingredients didn't say it which is the reason why I chose it but she still seemed annoyed and had someone else do the remake after I refused to pay again. I honestly wish I would have just asked for a refund for my order but with the way all the employees were acting, they definitely weren't approachable or kind at all. Just wasted close to $20 for nothing. I'm a barista myself and love to try new places and I would never treat any guest like that. Especially with them being a newer place, management really should do better in improving themselves. The environment seemed unwelcoming and I can assure that I will never be recommending this place to any of my fellow baristas or friends. read more

5/5 pastries, 5/5 drinks, 3/5 indoor set up. Waited about 30 minutes in line. They let about 10 people in the store at a time.

Great creamy drinks. I would definitely come back. read more

Salted Butter - Ham and cheese croissant, cinnamon bun croissant, pain au chocolat - Desserts Near Me - Pasadena, California

Salted Butter absolutely lives up to the hype, but you're going to work a little for it. Parking is rough and there will most definitely be a line. Do not let that scare you off though. Once you are inside, things move pretty quickly, even if it feels a bit chaotic and packed. The most important part is the pastries. Everything we tried was solid, but a couple really stood out. The croissant cinnamon roll was my favorite by far. It is not your traditional cinnamon roll. It is flakier, lighter, and just a really fun, elevated take on it. The Earl Grey morning bun was another standout, perfectly fragrant without being overpowering. We also ordered the apple fritter, brown butter almond croissant, and blueberry cream cheese danish. All good, just not quite as memorable as the top two. Overall, yes it is crowded, yes it is a bit of a scene, but the treats are absolutely worth it. read more

I came on a Sunday afternoon and there was no line. I had the cinnamon roll, brown butter sea salt chocolate chip cookie and salted brown butter maple latte. The cinnamon roll was so flakey. The taste wasn't like a cinnamon roll, but more like a pastry with the frosting outshining the pastry. The cookie was good and the right balance of flavors. The maple latte wasn't bad, but didn't taste the maple much. I know that I came in the afternoon and I was expecting a pretty empty display case, but I am glad it wasn't. The staff was very friendly. There aren't any seats really, but three benches in the perimeter of the common area. There are some parking spots available in the plaza. I want to come back again and get more than once cinnamon roll. read more

I've been to Salted Butter twice and both times, service wasn't great. I understand there's a line, but that doesn't mean they have to rush you out. In the process of that, both times, I was either overcharged or missing a pastry in my order. Parking can be difficult, so your best bet is to park where Vons supermarket is at and walk over. Pastires are okay, not great. I won't be coming back, but wish the business success. read more

I'm not a big sweets person but when I heard Salted Butter was having a collab with Prince's Pizza, I knew I had to try it! My friend was sweet enough to pick up and drop off the croissant pizza for me and let me tell you, it was one of the best things I have ever tasted! I didn't get a chance to eat it right away but even after two hours the croissant crust was crispy! It was so buttery and flakey and to die for. The combination of the two cheese, the spicy pepperoni and the honey on top just made the dish! A big fan of this collab and will definitely be back to try other items off their menu. read more

Delicious pastries! My friend and I came at 9:15am on a Thursday and there was no line outside. We had maybe 3 people ahead of us already ordering and paying for their purchases. Most items are in the $6-7 range. Food: The regular croissant was buttery and flakey. The whipped ricotta hot honey was delicious and also super buttery and flakey. Definitely eat them fresh because it tastes amazing fresh. The cinnamon roll was really yummy and I loved that the frosting wasn't too sweet! Also I loved that the frosting stayed soft/melty even after a few hours later. The apple fritter was on the sweeter side but my toddler loved this one! She loved how soft and fluffy the middle pieces were. My brother tried the spinach artichoke one and he said it was delicious. Overall, this is a solid bakery. The wait time definitely affected my rating. I don't think it's worth waiting if there's a long line. I would probably wait 5-10 min at most. If I'm already in the area I would definitely come back to try more of their savory items. One downside is the parking. They have a shared lot and very few parking spaces. Most spaces are also only 15-30 min parking. They also don't have tables for you to sit, just a few benches in the store. read more

Was in the Pasadena area and have been eyeing this pastry place for a while. Decided to do a quick pit stop here to try their pastries as I've seen it all over social media. Came here around 2 PM on a Saturday and the line was out the door. Couldn't find parking in the nearby lot and had to park somewhere else and walk ~5 minutes. Ended up waiting around ~30 minutes and by the time I got there, their most popular items like cinnamon roll and spinach artichoke dip were all sold out. As such, I ordered the following items instead: 1) Strawberry Rhubarb Danish: 8/10 Got this out of a whim because they had run out of spinach but surprisingly better than I had expected. The layers were crispy and not too sweet, reminded of a strawberry granola bar but better. The interior was a strawberry filling and went well with the flaky-ness. Overall, quite delicious and I'm sure the spinach would have been good as well. 2) Apple Fritter: 5/10 Sadly this was a miss. I expected the layers to be soft and flaky but it was super hard. There was very little apple flavor too and I was expecting apple pieces but there wasn't any. Not worth to get. Wasn't too sweet though. 3) Chocolate chip cookie: 7/10 I haven't had a chocolate chip cookie in a while but this was quite delicious. The flaky sea salt was a nice add on top of the oozing chocolate. The exterior was crunchy yet soft inside. It was also really huge and thin. Not too sweet which is amazing! Wish the line situation would be better as I do want to try the cinnamon rolls sometime... read more

If you love croissant type of pastries, you'll love Salted Butter! I arrived not too much longer after they opened on a weekday, and the place was already buzzing. There's limited parking, so other than just the fabulous pastries, I can understand how hard it can be to make it in on a busy day. All the pastries were beautifully laid out and looked incredibly inviting. There were way more sweet pastries compared to savory ones. I picked out a spinach-artichoke pastry, and a cinnamon roll. The spinach-artichoke pastry was good, but the cinnamon roll would be the item I come back to get. The cinnamon roll is a roll croissant doused in delicious cinnamon roll icing in the best and most amazing way. I incredibly appreciated that the pastry-to-icing ratio was amazing!! I got an iced latte and it was okay. I wouldn't necessarily wait in a long line to come back, but if I'm in the area, I'll definitely be thinking of that cinnamon roll! Friendly service! read more
