    Cold brew and Baby Blues

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very cute spot in a Pasadena alley, only thing is the parking but otherwise I really like the vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]You can stay here for a while and chill or walk around on a hot summer day.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The drinks were nice and we came here for the SGV passport deal. Overall very nice

    Came here with my best friend on a Sunday morning. This spot is tucked away in the heart of Old Town Pasadena in an alleyway right across from Edwin Mills by Equator. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lovely little spot with greenery all around.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I love me some Ube so I automatically gravitated towards the Boo Berry Crumble. I loved it! It was delicious! I ended up ordered it with oat-milk It was definitely blueberry heavy, which I didn't mind. I enjoyed the texture. Enjoyed the drink and the vibes! Service was excellent, the ladies were sweet! Hot tip: come in the early morning on Sundays. Free street meter parking before 10 or 11am.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]What a beautiful coffee and pastry shop! I see the term Instaworthy used a lot these days, but these are one of those places that truly deserve it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] More importantly, the drinks and pastries here are good. Full disclosure, I came here, trying to hit up another new pastry spot in the area. But the line was down the block. There was no way I was gonna wait in that line so I found this spot on a quick search. It's almost criminal that there was no one at the shop and it was so close to the other spot. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I will say this place doesn't have a lot of visibility from the main street because you'd have to walk in a little bit down, sort of an alleyway with other shops and eateries.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The person behind the counter was really, really friendly and helpful. I was able to get my drink (Savvvy's Special) pretty much right away and the Matcha & Pistachio croissant was really delicious. I was on my way to meet up with some friends at their house so I wasn't able to sit here for very long and enjoy the serene and beautiful setting. Definitely a big fan of this place and would love to come back soon.

    Matcha Chaga & Savvvys Special. ( ^_^)b

    We came by to redeem the Savvvys promotion from the SGV passport. It was for a BOGO free on any drink purchase. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They are located in the Mills Pl alley area. We came by on same Sunday as the Rose Bowl Marathon so it was very busy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The location has spacious dining areas outside and a few tables inside the shop.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff was very personable and kind to us. She noted customers periodically use the SGV passport from time to time. We decided on the Savvvys Special and Matcha Chaga. Both of them with Oat Milk. They do offer all kinds of milk alternative bases. Our drinks were completed within minutes and we enjoyed them outside in the patio. IMO, both of them were stellar. The perfect blends of sweetness with the proper amount of caffeine to boost you up for the day! Of the two, I enjoyed the Savvvys the most and would order it again. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Savvvys is a great place to kick back and enjoy some coffee and matcha![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Check em out! ( ^_^)b

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]The shop is so cute and great of photos.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Staff is friendly. The drinks were great actually ! They had very unique flavors I haven't seen at other coffee spots. I got the lavender coffee and you can really taste the coffee and it wasn't too sweet. I'm going back there today after I write this review !!

    adore this cafe. located in prime spot near pasadena finest restaurants, shops, parks, and more fun for all. [[HIGHLIGHT]]above all, enjoy the plants green calming intellectual ambiance of this cafe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]lots of seating inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] baristas are kind friendly welcoming. i thoroughly enjoyed my refreshing iced almond milk latte. i do hope in the future honey can be labeled from a specific local beehive friendly for those of us with allergies. more gluten free and vegan simultaneous food options would be amazing. thanks for this awesome go to cafe!

    We have come here several times with our husky and always have a pleasant experience. They have a nice variety of tasty pastries and drinks to choose from, including tried and true classics as well as those that are more unique. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Although the alley does get noisy, the patio and interior are both attractively designed as a respite from the bustle of the city.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I really appreciate that this cafe has its own personality and sparkle, rather than trying to look and taste like every other LA coffee shop or bakery. Service starts out reserved but then seems to warm up while you're there. It is on the pricier side, even for Old Pasadena, but I would rather support a small business than a chain. Give it a try!

    Easy to find, friendly services, great outdoor seating and plenty of indoor seating. Lady lavender (4/5) tasty and strong Strawberry chocolate scone (2.5/5) I'm not a scone person but this sounded delicious and was hoping it would change my mind but it didn't. Overall, I would come back and try their other drinks and pastries.

    BOGO thanks to SGV passport :) Rose Matcha Latte and the Cinnamon Latte! The drink was not bad and tasted good. It's very cozy and a vibe in the coffee shop!

    The blueberry drink was really good! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Hard to find seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They were out of stock for the lavender latte and we tried the mushroom pastry which was just ok.

    Savvvys Special
    Erika T.

    Such a cute spot with nice outdoor and indoor seating. The ordering area can be cramped during busy hours but you can easily wait outside after. Ordered the Savvvy Special which basically tastes like a honey cinnamon latte. It wasn't overly sweet which I liked and had a good balance of the espresso. Overall a good spot and I would come again

    Nutella Croissant
    Cassidy I.

    The space is comfortable and there are a lot of plants, which is nice. The coffee was very expensive, but tasty! Unfortunately, the pastry I got (Nutella croissant) was nasty. There was some sort of filling inside, maybe a cookie butter? I'm not sure, but it had split and was chunky and greasy. There was very little Nutella flavor aside from the zig zag on the top of the pastry. We also got water from the dispenser and there was stuff floating in it.

    One of my longtime favorite boba shops in the SGV that is pretty much a neighborhood staple. This…read moreis a very small shop with minimal seating, so it leans more towards a takeout type of boba shop. There are 2 self-order kiosks, making ordering a quick and easy experience. Although the menu is huge, the tea quality remains excellent with customizable sweetness and ice levels. I really like the "create your own tea" option, which not many boba shops offer nowadays. Some of mine and my husband's favorite drinks from here are the Uji Matcha Latte, Fluffy Roasted Oolong Milk Tea, Oreo Milk Tea, and Twinkle Fruit Tea. Each drink tastes like it is made of real brewed tea rather than artificial tea mixes. Also, I have to mention the amazing value of their HK Iced Milk Tea, which is a great and affordable drink option. The cute cups are just a bonus to the tea-forward drinks. As for food, we really like the Hong Kong style egg puff waffle and popcorn chicken. Both of these are great snacks for sharing or just for yourself. For the egg puff waffle, you even have the option to get it extra crispy, depending on your preference. I like that the waffle is only mildly sweet and buttery. The egg flavor really stands out. As for the popcorn chicken, it is juicy and heavily seasoned. There are several different spice levels to choose between and comes with a dipping sauce.

    Refreshing and cute cups. Everything customisable. Good…read moreselection of fruit teas, lemonade, matcha and milk teas.

The sesame latte and affectionate coffee were my favorites and I will definitely be coming back for those. The ube latte was also really good and had actual chunks of ube in it, but it did look different from the pictures since mine had no purple in it at all but at least we know they use real ube. The pandan Vietnamese coffee was really good too as the pandan flavor was strong but still balanced really well with the coffee. They also have egg waffles and other snacks that looked super tempting.

I ordered the pandan coconut Vietnamese coffee and WOW... easily a 10/10 for me. It had the perfect level of sweetness, and you could clearly taste the pandan without it overpowering the coffee itself. Everything was super well balanced. My friend got the sea salt Vietnamese coffee. He said it was good, but personally prefers the traditional version without the sea salt. We also shared the HK egg waffle stuffed with Portuguese custard, and this was a standout. The waffle was crispy on the outside, light and hollow inside, and the custard was smooth and just the right amount of sweet. Definitely worth ordering. The space itself is great if you're looking to study or just hang out. It's quiet inside with plenty of tables. There is outdoor seating too, but there were a couple of people smoking when we went, so we stayed inside (which worked out since it was hot anyway). Service was smooth. We ordered at the counter and the barista brought everything out to us, which was a nice touch. Overall, it's a really cute spot with great drinks and unique snacks. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu. Only downside is parking can be a bit tricky since it's just free street parking, so you might have to park across the street and walk over.

    To Zweets Cafe Team,…read more I have been a loyal customer of Zweets Cafe for many years and have always enjoyed coming in for my breakfast and coffee. Unfortunately, I had a very disappointing experience during my visit this morning. There was a miscommunication with my coffee and my daughter's chocolate milk, as both were initially served hot. I politely asked if they could be remade cold, and the staff member kindly agreed. However, when the drinks were returned, it was clear that ice had simply been added to the hot beverages. As a result, both drinks were watered down and unpleasant. By the time I got home, I had to throw my coffee away because it tasted so poor, and my daughter's chocolate milk had the same issue. I was very disappointed, especially after clearly requesting the drinks to be remade cold. It felt like a waste of money and did not reflect the quality of service I have come to expect from Zweets Café. I am sharing this feedback in hopes that it helps improve future service, as I truly value your café and would like to continue being a loyal customer. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
