Green, plant and painting-filled cafe in an alleyway. Cheap parking at schoolhouse garage! Indoor seating w outlets and outdoor seating. + Lady Lavender ($7; less sweet): was still too sweet for me, but after the ice melted, it was a good strong espresso with sweet lavender flavor (7.2/10) read more

Expensive but Good I had amazing coffee here. The coffee was rich with deep flavor and super smooth. I would order this again. I also ordered a scone. The little ones ordered coffees and croissants. I don't think I've ever spent so much on coffees and Morning Bakery items like I spent here. The service was okay and the shop has great ambience. I am not sure if I would go out of my way to come here but if I was in the neighborhood and wanted a cup of coffee I would stop by here for sure. Parking was a little difficult. I was able to find parking on the street which is meter parking. This is a great place for social media picture taking. Most importantly, they had a really good cup of coffee read more

A cute little cafe hidden in a somewhat alley. The employees at the register were super helpful in answering me and my mom's questions about their coffee as we are picky when it comes to sweetness. We were drawn to their specialty drink menu that had so many different combinations of flavored lattes. I got the miss merry which was essentially a maple brown sugar latte. It wasn't overtly sweet and you could taste the maple flavoring. My mom got a simple hazelnut latte. Overall, we paid about 16 for both cups as I substituted regular milk with oat milk. It's a little on the pricey side for coffee considering there's only one size offered but I don't expect much less from a shop in Pasadena. They had beautiful pastries on display that I didn't get to try and if I ever find myself back in the area and peckish, it'll definitely be a treat I consider. Parking is easiest to be found in the private parking garage on de Lacey, it also happens to be the cheapest. If not, maybe you can snag some metered parking on the street. read more

I literally come here every morning for the past year since I moved in. Service is wonderful. I've had everything on the menu. My favorite is mixing besito with a mocha. And also not on menu but they do a great brown sugar oat latte! It's a great spot to do some work their seating is comfortable. Music a tad too loud to really concentrate but good read more

AMBIANCE - A really beautiful, calming coffee shop. Savvvys has colorful pillows, amazing plants everywhere, and eclectic pieces of furniture. The music was also good. I will say, finding the actual entrance though was difficult and parking is pretty bad. For those reasons alone, I had to take a star off but it's my only knock on this spot. FOOD - They have a large selection of drink choices along with delicious looking pastries. I ended up just ordering one of their special lattes; the Sweet Revenge iced latte. This was really interesting because it's baklava honey and pistachio flavored. Unique right? The coffee itself isn't super strong but it's good. As far as the flavors go, I think I tasted more of the pistachio and a little less on the baklava honey. Overall, really tasty though, for sure! SERVICE - I'd say it was good, but nothing that stood out to me. Simple and straight forward. NOTE(S) - wifi + outlets + indoor and outdoor seating read more

The cutest coffee shop in downtown, with a great ambiance for catching up with friends or also to bring a laptop and get some work done(: there's free WiFi, indoor and outdoor seating options, and super cute photo ops too! I ordered one of the speciality lattes and I'm so bummed because I forgot what it's called and didn't take a picture of the menu!!! ): it has pistachio and baklava and I decided to be adventurous and give it a try. It was sooo good!! Not too sweet and a perfect nutty flavor. read more

Pasadena is lucky to have so many unique coffee shops - and this one here is a hidden gem. The coffee creations are so much fun and yummy. Each drink is a work of art. Service is always great. Bonus that they are dog friendly. I love that Savvys craft pup cups too - today is a version of an apple pie! Gotta love it. The interior was well thought of - easily transported to a different place. No de has been spared. Parking is street or structure. read more

Drink: Sweet Revenge $7.72 after tax: 6.5./10 Tastes like normal coffee with a pistachio & baklava whipped cream on top. I liked the sweat cream on top but you're losing a lot of pistachio as they're too big to fit through the straw. It didn't feel like anything special and was a let down for a "signature" drink. It was quite expensive too. Service: Average Ambiance: 8.5/10 The interior and exterior are beautiful. The decor of this place is great but not the most spacious. Inside there were roughly 6ish tables and there were some more tables outside. - Tables & Chairs were wobbly and not stable. - Restroom (?) not sure if they had one but I didn't see or ask CONS: - charges extra for milk alternatives - the pastries looked old (1pm) and I even saw some fruit flies inside the display case which is not sanitary. PROS: - Great space for studying / doing work as there are a lot of outlets - Great lighting Overall, I am kind of hesitant on returning based on the pastry situation but beautiful place for sure :) read more

Absolutely love this coffee shop! My friend and I were on the hunt for a regular coffee shop to work at together relatively close to Arcadia, and I think we have found the one! The ambience at Savvvy's is extremely focused and relaxing. Its a great place to work with super fast wifi, a plethera of outlets, and super comfortable seating. We found that this was one of our deal breakers with other coffee shops but Savvvys really takes it away! On the weekdays, seating is easy to come by, and they often have outdoor seating, but on weekends it can be a bit more packed. We the baristas here, they are always so patient and skilled in their coffee making. I highly recommend getting the oat milk foam that they offer, especially on their iced chai latte, its one of my go to drinks. As for the price, I will say its to be expected being right at the heart of old town Pasadena, but it is quite the treat to give yourself after a long days work. My only "complaint" about the shop is to please extend the hours! My friend and I love going here but wish it would stay open longer (they close at 4 PM). read more

i've been here a couple times now and this place is my new favorite side-alley coffee spot when I just want to relax and am not in a hurry. The coffee is on point, the pastries are fresh, and the smoothies are fairly priced and tasty. The artwork is unique and matches the interesting assortment of throw pillows (at least to my interior decorating challenged eye), Both times, the service is pleasant and friendly. Can't ask for much more than that and I hope this place does well! read more

I came here with a few friends one early Saturday afternoon to get some work done. Ambiance Very nice! It has that millennial-cool aesthetic with marble, monsteras, and gold accents, which I really liked as a millennial myself. Although the interior space isn't large, they offer a variety of table sizes inside and plenty of outdoor seating, which I really appreciated. Plus, the Wi-Fi was reliable! Service I only had brief interaction at the register, but the staff was friendly and helpful. Food Honestly, these are some of the best croissants I've had outside of France. That may sound bold, but I thought the exterior was perfectly crispy, and the buttery interior was soft without leaving an oily film in my mouth. I also appreciated the creative flavors. - Matcha and Pistachio Croissant: My favorite! It has a slight almond taste, but it's still delicious. -Lychee and Raspberry Croissant: Very good, though it tasted more like strawberry jam. -Spinach and Feta Croissant: The cheese had a funkier flavor than most feta I've tried, and the texture was more bread-like than a traditional croissant. It wasn't bad, but I probably wouldn't order it again. read more

Super cute coffee shop tucked into the alley off of Colorado. For about the same price as Starbucks/Alfred coffee which are nearby, you can get some more creative coffee drinks and support an independent family run shop! I ordered the Boo Berry Crumble - which has a nice distinct blueberry taste to it but not overwhelming, didn't taste the ube or crumble part as much. Service was super fast, I ordered pickup on Doordash to use up some credits and it was ready in 5min on a Sunday morning. The cafe is cutely decorated with a few tables, saw a few people working quietly. Would definitely come back to try their other coffees and get some work done! Parking structure around the corner on DeLacey is $1 for first 2 hours, or do street parking meter. read more

Lovely cafe tucked away in an alley on the busy Colorado blvd. There are so many speciality flavors to choose from + all can be made with either matcha or espresso. I ordered the iced strawberry blond espresso and wow! The perfect hint of sweetness, pleasant and present strawberry taste and the espresso was smooth and frothy. I also got the cheddar and everything croissant. Personally I wasn't a huge fan but still good. I believe it's vegan so the cheese has an interested texture and the croissant dough is similar to Pillsbury texture. Had a pleasant hint of spicy (jalapeños?). There are a few tables for working and a couple of comfy lounge chairs. read more

I loved coming here for a few hours to work! I greatly enjoyed the latte and croissant that I got. I was really torn between options as the specialty lattes spoke to me just as much as the smoothie and protein shake options. I'd gladly come here again to enjoy the patio, a coffee, and the productivity that came with the whole experience! The seating is kind of tricky as I think part of the outdoor patio is for seating at the restaurant across the way. This may not be an issue earlier in the morning, but as I stayed until almost close this was something that I noticed (and was glad I already nabbed a table on the patio!). read more

Savvvys - Outdoor seating area right out front of the shop entrance - Internet Cafes Near Me - Pasadena, California

Savvvys is a cute coffee shop nested in the back of Mills Alley in Old Town Pasadena. I was surprised at how expensive a space was hidden in the "alley". They have plenty of indoor seating as well as outdoor space with comfortable and shade from the elements. I love the plant-forward design. It's quiet and zen-like here. Nice pastry selection, many from Delight Pastry which is a big plus in my book. My Americano with a splash of oat milk was also good. I ordered a basic drink, so not much to write about there. I didn't interact with the barista much but she was pleasant. Parking can be difficult because it is Old Town but plenty of parking garages. I think there were outlets inside but it was full, so I couldn't verify. I'll have to go back again and try more coffee drinks to see if the place has any amazing, unique characteristics that pushes into the 5-star category. read more

Super aesthetic and comfortable spot for studying or doing work! This cute coffee shop offers unique drinks and an assortment of pastries. Located in old town Pasadena, the place to park is the Schoolhouse parking structure which is $1 for 2hrs and just walk over. There are plenty of tables indoors and a beautiful outdoor patio with seats as well. They have free wifi and outlets available. The server was very friendly and helpful in recommending a drink. I got the Savvvy special and an almond croissant. I enjoyed the drink a lot which came with espresso, agave, cinnamon, and choice of milk. The Savvvy special has a strong espresso taste but was balanced by a good hint of agave and cinnamon. I would definitely recommend trying out this drink. The almond croissant was a solid pairing. Overall I enjoyed the coffee and my study session here! read more

I really wanted to like this place, menu looked so promising and the store vibes are lovely. If you want a straight up coffee or latte, no frills, it's fine for that. Tried two different specialty lattes, two different times and both were just straight up espresso and milk. No specialty flavoring or toppings as listed on the menu - not even a hint of lavender, lavender buds, cookie crumble, nada. Also tried their pastries, almond croissant was buttery and yummy, strawberry chocolate cookie was ok. read more

My friends have been raving about Savvvy's for months. I finally had to opportunity to see for myself what the buzz was all about. From the minute you walk in you are captivated by the charming décor. The vibe is so warm & welcoming you feel like you've entered someone's home. A lovely gal by the name of Savannah welcomed me. She was an absolute doll and even asked me how my day was. On the menu board you'll see a variety of creative beverage options - espresso, lattes, teas, & protein shakes. The display case is filled with an assortment of delicious baked good from Delight Pastry, which is just up the street. Off to the right is the café's moniker in neon against the wall. It's the perfect spot for a photo opp. Outside is a lovely open-air patio, and inside is a cozy seating area that emits a relaxing vibe. Wi-Fi is free so this is the perfect place to hunker down with your laptop. Deciding on what to order wasn't easy. There were so many yummy options. I finally selected the Maple Latte, which is comprised of espresso, maple syrup, cinnamon & milk (alt options available) topped with brûléed brown sugar and sprinkled with gold dust. (Their syrups are made in house, which adds to the quality.) As I watched her prepare my latte it dawned on me that Savvy is a nickname for Savannah, and I was most certain that this darling gal was the owner. Not only did she take pride in her job and provide excellent customer service, she also prepared my drink with love down to the very last detail - carefully placing the gold dust on top of the brûléed topping. I took my first sip and instantly knew why Savvvys is such a hit. The five-star ratings are legit! read more

This cafe is so cute!!! I love the aesthetics and it's just such a cozy shop to sit in while enjoying a nice cup of coffee. Came here on a rainy day and it was a great experience! Staff were nice and inviting. The drinks were tasty and unique. The couch was real squishy so I kind of sank in and didn't want to leave lol. Lots of people had laptops on and headphones in, so I wouldn't recommend it if you're looking for a super social/loud spot. I'd definitely come back again if I was craving their drinks! I would recommend the Savvvy Special if you like sweet coffee drinks. I ordered the iced maple latte and didn't really find the maple taste as much, it had a very light cinnamon taste and the coffee didn't seem too strong to me. I'd definitely go with the special next time because it was also much more creamy! Come show them some love, this is a great spot to unwind and relax. read more

What a lovely spot for yummy pastries and unique caffeinated beverages! I stopped into Savvy's after a few other places in the area were a little too crowded for my liking. Savvy's was almost full but they have this lovely outdoor seating area that makes it feel a little less stuffy. I got the blueberry matcha and the pistachio matcha croissant and they were both delicious. I love that the blueberry syrup didn't taste overly sweet, it was a light natural-tasting sweetness that paired perfectly with the matcha. The cashier (who may have been the owner, I'm not sure) was sweet and friendly and I love that this place is LGBTQ/Latina-owned. I only wish they were open a little later so I could make this a go-to spot for my evening work sessions!! But I will definitely be back for the pastries and tea. read more

Looking for an "off the beaten path coffee shop?" Then look no further... *Check out my latest addition to my "coffee lovers unite collection." Just off Colorado Blvd in the "closed off" alley way near Lather, just a few feet down to your right is this very spacious and beautifully decorated cafe. Sit outside under the covered lattice with flowers dangling or go inside and sit at one of the tables darn with decorative pillows. The baristas are lovely and ready to take your order. Smoothies, iced & hot teas, espresso, iced & hot coffees...take your pick:). The pastries are fresh and appealing. I ordered the Iced Maple with Toasted Brown Sugar Latte with whole milk and light ice ($6.52 w/tax) It was delicious! My friend Caesar ordered a berry smoothie that he said was tasty and very good. *Free wifi *Restrooms located outside to the side of the coffee shop *Street parking - meters mostly read more

The best coffee shop in Pasadena!! I love all the unique flavors and their atmosphere is perfect for either getting some work done or going to chit chat with your friends. I ordered their minty baby and it was everything I expected and more. It had the perfect amount of peppermint flavor without overpowering the latte. I would definitely go back just to try every time on their menu. I will say that it's located in an alley so if you're unfamiliar with Old Town Pasadena, it may be a little hard to find. I would recommend parking in the De Lacey parking structure and walking over to the cafe. read more

I highly favor this place. It's in the cut. The tunes are pleasant. The coffee is anything, but basic. Specialty coffees have their own squad on the menu. You get a pre Covid sized cup for the going price these days ($7+). You can park up in the lot around the corner for $1/2 hours. I gotta mention, that, I don't know if it's just today, but it's a lil funky up in here. As I walked up, I smelled something off putting. The entrance stands in what seems to be an alley. It's clean, and doesn't resemble to ones in the city (L.A.) Nevertheless, whatever it is, it slithered its way inside. FREE WiFi is available (: the ambiance is inviting. Bright natural light beams in. There's a solid amount of space inside, and outlets if you need to charge up. The holiday decorations are a fun touch. & the pillows! Ohmahgah, so many pillows. read more

Loved this coffee spot and wish I knew about it sooner! Coffee menu is decently priced especially for the specialty lattes they have. My fiancee got the Maple Latte and I got the Rose Water Latte. Both were nicely presented and I enjoyed both of them! We also got the almond and lychee/raspberry croissant. The almond croissant was to die for however the flavor in the lychee/raspberry was too subtle for me. Our total order was around $28-$30. Inside seating is well decorated, there's a long bench with lots of pillows and about 4-6 tables indoors with at least 4 outlets (with 2 inputs). We came on a Saturday morning and there was plenty of natural sunlight which is perfect if you want to study or enjoy reading a book. The drinks were made in less than 5 minutes and honestly not much too complain about this place. But just a heads up there aren't public restrooms! read more

Best rose-infused latte of any sort I've ever had!! Friendly, welcoming staff, vibe is bright, chic, and relaxing, and the drinks are just excellent - I'll definitely be coming back for more! Yelp coffee shop aficionado @SamB has been trying to get me out here for ages - I'm so mad I didn't come sooner - she has flawless taste in coffee shops and this cafe was another excellent choice! We met up for our coffee date on a Friday mid-morning and it was busy but not crazy - still quiet with almost all patrons on laptops with their headphones on, working no doubt. My litmus test of coffee shops is their rose flavored offerings lol - so I ordered their Rosey Cheeks Iced Coffee and it was PERFECT!! A very strong essence of the rose flavor shines through without being too sweet - and it's delightfully creamy as well and beautiful! It comes topped with edible rose petals and GOLD flakes!! Wow!! I'm told they make all their syrups in house and it shows. They have a large menu of drinks that all sound fantastic- as well as seasonal specials and quite a large pastry case full of deliciousness!! They even support other local nearby businesses - getting their croissants from Delight Pastry down the street. I definitely plan on trying the Creme coco croissant on my next visit - and probably with the Maple Latte everyone raves about haha! The space is roomy, elegantly modern with lovely art hanging by the windows and various types of seating - from small cafe tables to couches to wall benches and outdoor patio seating that is well shaded. The colors are all very calming and chill - they play lovely cafe style music. It's located in a great part of Old town Pasadena too. Their prices are good for the area. Staff were just wonderful. Parking is all street parking or in one of the many public garages. I parked in De Lacey Street garage very nearby for very reasonable prices. I will definitely be back soon - highly recommend! read more
