Superba is a solid local coffee spot in Pasadena. The menu is a little pricier than your average coffee shop but you're paying for a great, "non chain like" atmosphere. Staff is friendly and genuinely makes an effort to interact with customers in my opinion. I came by on a Sunday and ended up getting the roasted chicken club along with coffee(see picture). The space gets great outside airflow and plenty of sun. A concept that works well in Southern California. I definitely recommend it as a great place to hang out and grab a bite along with good quality coffee. read more

Superba Snacks + Coffee - ROASTED CHICKEN CLUB SANDWICH + Drip Coffee - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Pasadena, California

A cute, casual spot near the Metro station! I ordered the golden latte (aka turmeric latte) ($6.50) and strawberry matcha latte ($7), both iced. It was my first time having a turmeric latte, and I liked it! It came with black pepper on top. It was the right amount of sweet, and despite the lack of caffeine, I still felt a bit energized drinking it. The strawberry matcha latte was decent. I liked the matcha and didn't think it was too sweet, though I wish the strawberry flavor was more prominent. For the price, I wish the drinks were bigger. All of the drinks come in one size, and I think the size is on the small side. The service was friendly and quick. FYI - Superba does automatically add a 3% "happy + healthy surcharge," but you can request to have it taken off your receipt. read more

First time and probably the last time. Pricy. The mocha latte was so so, better when i added a sugar packet, but served in such a small cup. Another pricy item when I ordered a roasted chicken sandwich which unexpectedly was cold and came sandwiched between untrusted bread (not sure if that's supposed to be served that way). The egg salad sandwich was better. At least there was a small parking lot. The interior is nice. They also have outdoor seating available. The guy in the army shirt was nice and had good customer service. Meanwhile the blond lady in the purple shirt was curt, not rude but should not belong up front at the register. read more

Words cannot even begin to describe how much I love this place. Not only do they have the best Matcha latte in town but their customer service is *chef's kiss*. I always feel so welcomed and cared for when I come in. Ivan and Jason and the entire crew are absolute rockstars and make this place so special. It's also got the cutest decor and outdoor seating that's perfect for catching up with a friend or a study session. My only complaint is I wish they stayed open longer! Other than that, it's stellar coffee spot and worth visiting whenever you're in the Pasadena area. Cheers read more

Love this neighborhood gem! I come for the best egg salad sandos and espresso, aaaand cuz the folks who work here are lovely. They balance quick and personal--Isabel was the first to remember my name each visit and set the tone. Jason brings the most enthusiasm and is always taking care of details, like making sure tables are spotless. Noah is calm and kind, shooing a visiting June bug out the window rather than squishing it (truly cementing my loyalty to Superba). And Alex will wax philosophical about life and music without missing a (service) beat. read more

normal stop by places, snacks and coffee are good , service is ok, suitable for one or two people quick meals. Chill atmosphere!

I love this spot! I come here all the time to get breakfast and sometimes lunch to-go for work. The staff are the absolute best -- Isabell always puts a smile on my face and seems to remember everyone! I've tried almost everything on the menu by now and have never been disappointed. They always make a solid latte and their pastries are fresh baked daily. Very dog-friendly, indoor / outdoor cafe seating. My Frenchie especially loves the baked dog biscuits. read more

Over the long weekend we took our son on the metro to try this place for lunch. Its open space and dog friendly atmosphere made me like it instantly. The coffee was fantastic, as were the egg salad and ham & butter sandwich. The boy shared with us and had his own, exceptionally crispy tater tots. And our pup got treated to a fresh made biscuit of his own. I'm still lucky enough to work remote, so this might need to turn into a weekday spot as well. read more

This place has a nice atmosphere and plenty of seating to chat, read or work on your computer. However the staff are very slow. I waited 20 minutes for an $8 coffee, apparently they threw away my receipt because they're more interested in talking than filling customer orders. Unfortunately, I will not be back. I can get better service and cheaper coffee at Starbucks across the street. Poor service read more

Superba Snacks + Coffee - BREAKFAST BURRITO, SMOTHERED TOTS, UMAMI SALMON BOWL & MATCHA LATTE - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Pasadena, California

The food is perfectly good and fine, however the lack of attention to details while taking and giving orders is astounding. My partner swapped a couple of ingredients due to food allergies, and received the order without the adjustments. They remedied the situation by re-making the order, but not without some mild pushback. "It's not on the ticket." Idk, maybe that's the responsibility of the employee taking the order? Before leaving, I decided on grabbing a pastry since the order counter wasn't busy. I asked for the kouign amann, and the person even repeated the item while ringing it up. Upon getting home and opening the bag, I see it's a chocolate croissant. LOL. Inattentiveness is clearly plaguing society. read more

The food was delicious especially the breakfast burrito and overall an amazing and calming experience.

I cannot thank Noah, Alex, Jason, and Alyssa enough for the friendliest service in the world at my favorite neighborhood coffee shop with the absolute best pastries and most amazing food!!! They've always been so kind to me, my husband, my parents, and any friend I've ever brought here, which is a lot! Exceptional service from them all, either behind the counter or on the floor. They have probably the best almond croissant in Pasadena and some do the best pastry selections in Pasadena. And some of the best drinks and menu variety out of any shop in Pasadena. I get their breakfast burrito, a few pastries like their yogurt cake, croissant, cookie, I mean whatever I'm feeling you can't go wrong, I love their granola yogurt bowl surprisingly, and their turmeric latte and even milkshakes. So good. Thankful I live so close. read more

Superba has become one of our local favorites! The customer service is, dare I say, superba (shoutout Noah!). Coffee is always great, we would recommend a vanilla latte or strawberry matcha, but you can't go wrong! Already looking forward to our next visit :) read more

I visited on a Friday around noon, there was no line, just a few people inside working on their laptops. I ordered the breakfast burrito, which came with two sauces and I added a side of tater tots. The burrito was good, with black beans, pico de gallo, and cheese melted on the outside that added a crispy layer. The orange juice was fresh! Overall, a good spot for a quick bite! read more

I've driven by this place many times and always say, "What is Superba?" Well, I finally decided to stop by and find out. Superba is a Latin adjective that means superb. This quaint café serves coffee & pastries in addition to breakfast & lunch. They also sell fresh artisanal bread. The space has a modern feel with an open-air aesthetic and there is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. I arrived when they first opened to grab a coffee before hitting the gym. Ave & Tim greeted me enthusiastically. The smell of freshly baked goods was lovely. I ordered a Spanish Latte. The made to order madeleines sounded tempting, but I'm a sucker for a crumb topping so I got a slice of the blueberry coffee cake. My latte was delicious. It had a subtle taste of cinnamon, and the foam was rich & creamy. The coffee cake was moist with lots of fresh blueberries, and the crumb topping added a touch of sweetness. Thank you Ava & Tim for the Superba customer service! I'll have to come back for the madeleines. *Parking lot behind the building. *Dog friendly read more

Always a good time. I like the salmon salad. Unique drinks. They have pastries now too. Gonna try the morning bun! read more

This spot helped me out when I was in a pinch, running short on time between appointments trying to grab lunch, a beverage, and take a virtual call. Order was efficiently placed with help from the friendly cashier and staff, lots of tables to choose from, and easy-to-connect-to WiFi. Devoured the salmon bowl I ordered - exactly what I needed to refuel in the middle of a chaotic day and very delicious. They also remembered my name when I was walking out to the parking lot. And wow free parking lot!!! Vibes were pleasant and casual; lots of others working on laptops or meeting up with a small group. read more

Fantastic food, cool ambience and friendly staff! Jason took our order, he provided such friendly customer service (which is quite rare nowadays). He remembered our names and was very attentive to our requests. I will definitely return, loved the food as well! Enjoyed my first experience at Superba read more

great place. love their vegan banana bread and matcha. I come by every week and Jason's always really nice

I popped by for a quick coffee and was intrigued by what kind of snacks were in store. I easily found parking in the lot behind the building. There is a small outdoor patio that is dog friendly, and seating inside as well. I walked up to the counter and kind of stood there for a while before I was acknowledged. The employees were having what sounded like a pretty in depth conversation. I definitely felt like they waiting to finish their conversation before helping me. Once the cashier was ready to take my order, zero pleasantries. For how cute and welcoming this place seemed when I walked in, that immediately changed once I had this interaction. I just ordered a cold brew to go, but I noticed their pastries looked really delicious and there were plenty of options between savory and sweet. Superba seems like more of a grab and go type of spot, or maybe if you wanted to bring your computer and get some work done. It's got a casual and approachable appearance, but I got the "we're too cool to serve you" vibe. Kind of a bummer because it seems like this place is pretty well liked. On the bright side, coffee was good! read more

Went for coffee and breakfast. Had a delicious cheesy eggs on toast (sourdough toast, scrambled eggs with white cheddar, scallions on top) and a cup of coffee. Very satisfying but I wish they had condiments out. Like salt, pepper, ketchup, hot sauce, milk/cream. You have to ask, and I felt bad asking because they were busy. Service was very quick. You order at the counter then they call your name. Nice seating area indoor/outdoor. Parking in back. read more

This is a darling spot located in Pasadena with indoor and outdoor dining spaces. Parking is conveniently located behind the restaurant. I came here and tried the salmon bowl, smothered tater tots, and made to order madeleines. The salmon bowl was incredibly fresh and healthy. A large piece of salmon sits atop a bed of kale, cucumbers, rice, and carrots. There's two small sweet potatoes too. The sauce that comes with the bowl was so tasty and I poured it in and mixed the contents together. It was a really nutritious meal and I didn't feel heavy after. The smothered tater tots were amazing. There is cheese layered between the tots and bacon bits sprinkled on top. The tater tots were crispy and soft. I really enjoyed it alongside the salmon bowl. We got the madeleines for dessert and I was already full at this point but my friend said it's a must try so we did. I thought they were just as good as the madeleines I've had in France, if not better. They are made with orange or lemon zest and made to order so it's warm, light and fluffy. Definitely worth getting! This is a great place for breakfast or lunch and I'd totally come here again. read more

This is such a cute little coffee shop. I instantly was drawn to the golden latte, which has no caffeine, but has delicious turmeric and ginger in it. I definitely recommend to anybody who doesn't really need a lot of caffeine in the morning but needs a little ginger pick me up and the cashier was great. He was super sweet and explained to me what the golden latte was and explained to me that it taste better in his opinion hot and it definitely tastes great hot love it! read more

No sizes on their menu, I order an iced almond milk latte with no syrup. They charge me $10 for a 12oz cheap little drink - total rip off and not coming back here for coffee anymore. I get that in this economy everyone is feeling the squeeze but these type of techniques are just insulting to customers who deserve something decent for the inflated price. There are hip cafes everywhere and I'll just go to one that doesn't play "portion games" because they exist read more

Superba is a trendy cafe and snack shop in Pasadena really close to the 110 freeway. They have a large parking lot and plenty of seating.

The food is solid - wouldn't say it wowed me - but it's a good place to get that small, quick brunch fix. We got the avocado toast and the breakfast burrito. Loved the pickled radish on the toast, and the stiffness of the tortilla they used for the burrito. Menu isn't descriptive about what ingredients they use so you'll have to ask if you're very particular about what goes into your food. The pastries were probably the best though. I got the plain croissant and Kouign Amann, and I think they bake them way better than other places. I wouldn't say the croissant was as good as the Sugarbloom croissants that are sold at places like Dash Coffee Bar, namely because it wasn't as crunchy, but it was better than the ones at most of the cafes I've tried in Pasadena. The sizes of both pastries were very generous too, for the price. I liked that the Kouign Amman wasn't too sweet and had just the right texture. I'd skip the matcha latte, mainly because it didn't have a strong flavor. The cup runs pretty small and stacked with a lot of ice so it really didn't feel like much for the price. Service wasn't the fastest. It wasn't terribly busy the day we went, but it still took more than 15 minutes for everything to come out. read more
