    Dulce de leche latte
    Allie G.

    Have been wanting to try one of these for a while and came across this drive through location. They have a good variety of hot, iced and blended drinks. I went with a dulce de leche iced latte and it was so delicious! Sweetness level was perfect and the espresso itself was great! The staff was friendly when taking our order and speedy in getting the drinks out.

    Driving up to the pick-up window.

    I love the concept of drive thru coffee, especially when it's cold and I don't want to get out of my warm car. Well. Imagine my surprise when I drove up and saw a darling girl bundled up standing by the menu board with an iPad waiting to take my order. What? I feel sorry for whomever get assigned that shift when it's raining or 100 degrees outside. I hope they install an intercom soon. This location recently opened in what was a former fast-food spot. There are a few tables outside to enjoy your coffee & pastry. In addition to a walk-up window. The menu bord is large with pictures. I ordered a small Caramel Macchiato with almond milk. ($5.25 + .75) I drove up to the window where I was greeted by a friendly gal who told me my order when be ready shortly. She closed the window, and I couldn't help but think of the other girl standing in the cold taking orders. (Did she draw the short straw?) Soon after, my coffee was ready and I was on my way. (I was the only car in line so my wait time was minimal.) I should point out that my drink was more of a latte than a traditional Macchiato. It was nicely balanced with a hint of caramel, smooth coffee notes, and light on the sweetness. It gave me the fuel I needed to get through my Saturday morning workout at the gym.

    basically a drive thru, no inside dining.. line moves quickly, effortlessly Horchata latte tasted amazing and hot... service was friendly and welcoming... A+ A return visit is in the future...

    i absolutely LOOVVEEE their horchata frappe! it is yummy goodness inside a cup! i stopped by in the morning before work and there was no line. decided to step out and order from the front window instead of the drive thru. super quick service and lady who took my order was super nice. most definitely going to come back & try their other drinks!

    Walk up window where staff wont acknowledge you and pretend to ignore you.

    so apparently there two way to enter via your car. When I enter it had a sign 'drive through entrance' . There was no equipment to order so when I pulled up to the window. The girl didnt want to talk to me and refused while i sit outside the window signal oh can you open up so I can ask where the menu is. She refused for 5 mins. I decided to park and do the walk up window and the staff also chose to ignore me for walk up. So I left and drove to starbucks 1 min away. Confusing sign, staff will pretend to ignore you.

    Horchata cold brew 9/10 - not too sweet or too milky like a latte would most likely be

    I've been to a few Tierra Mia's and am excited that there is one closer to home. The location is a little odd as there isn't really any parking and the drive thru line gets long pretty easily. The wait wasn't too bad and there was someone outside to take orders as well. I ordered an horchata cold brew and paid with the employee outside. I came around to the speaker menu and noticed they had a seasonal menu which was all types of different pumpkin flavored drinks. Hoping they come up with a gingerbread or snickerdoodle flavor for winter time!

    So excited for Tierra Mia to be in Altadena / Pasadena and bonus it's a drive thru! The wait was minimal. They're running an efficient system from order to when the drinks are ready. I ordered a large hot Cubano latte with oat milk (half sweetened) and large hot horchata latte with oat milk (half sweetened). Between the two, the cubano slightly takes the lead. I enjoyed the espresso taste with that brown sugar hint in the back. Most of all, IT WAS THE PERFECT TEMP to drink immediately. It did not scorch my mouth, or lukewarm, which I think most cafes get wrong! IT WAS THE PERFECT TEMP. Glad they're nearby.

    2nd day in a row? OBSESSED, obviously. This time I got the same thing, an Iced Horchata Latte but in a large $6.25 & a Cheese Delight $2.50. The pastry was small but boy was it tasty! For the price, I'd say it was worth it! This time I went through the drive thru, I got there at 7:14am and got my order at 7:26am. That isn't bad of a wait considering how busy they are and there were like 10 cars ahead of me. So they did pretty good on timing! Will be coming again, and again. See you again Tierra Mia!

    I'm only giving 3 stars not because it was bad. There's just no parking anywhere, the street is awkward, the drive thru sucks. I didn't go in because I had to stay in the car so I wouldn't get a ticket. I have never been here so I am just letting you know how the flavor was on everything. The drink tasted good, it was a rice and bean frappe and the strawberry tres leche muffin was good as well. Very moist. My coworker went inside and seem to come out pretty fast.wish I could've went in to see the inside.

    Horchata latte
    Rachel B.

    The first time I came here I was really impressed by the horchata latte and the efficiency of the drive through process. The second time I ordered a small horchata latte and a small peppermint mocha latte from their holiday menu. The coffee tasted a little burnt this time, and the peppermint mocha latte had an astringent artificial peppermint flavor. I'd order again, but maybe not from their holiday menu.

    Was so excited to find out Tierra Mia Coffee was opening down the street from us! My husband always went with his friends in OC so I was excited to get one here in Pasadena. The menu can be a bit overwhelming but staff is always friendly and helpful. The drinks are very sweet, so if that's up your alley, this is the place to go! I find the cubano con leche is a mild option so I can pretend I'm drinking a sweet drink with hubby. The place is small with minimal outdoor seating and it can get busy. Sometimes the line is down Lake Ave! This place is worth it!

    How can anyone even think of leaving a bad review for this place! It's sooo good! I was so excited that Pasadena finally got one. The horchata frap and cafe cubano is soooo good. And workers are so nice.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you for opening one of your franchises in Pasadena. I still haven't had a chance to stop by but a friend brought me coffee today and I enjoyed this at work today!

    Yummy

    I stopped by this spot after a local recommended it as having one of the best matchas in Pasadena,…read moreand it definitely got me in the spirit to watch the new Minions and Monsters movie tomorrow! The Build: I ordered the banana cream matcha, which features a rich matcha base with standard oat milk, topped with a heavenly layer of banana cream and tiny, mysterious crunchy pieces. The Flavor Profile: Taste-wise, the drink was absolutely heavenly. The matcha itself was wonderfully rich, and mixing in the banana cream took it to the next level, while the crunchy toppings added a really nice occasional texture. The only real letdown was the size, the cup was just so tiny for an $8 price tag. Even though the flavors were incredible, it felt a bit hard to justify the steep cost for such a small portion. The Verdict: While the major price tag means this won't be an everyday habit, the solid flavors and super fast, friendly service make it a perfect spot for a little treat every once in a while. The staff had my drink out almost instantly around 10 AM on a Tuesday, and since I live so close, I'll definitely be back occasionally when I want to spoil myself.

We got the mango matcha rain, banana cream matcha, and banana latte. For $7-8 per drink, you get a very SMALL sized cup, I believe it's a 12 oz. Although oat milk is the standard for the matcha drinks, the price for such a small cup was not worth it. For the drinks itself, not sure what kind of matcha powder they are using but it doesn't seem to be grade quality. The banana latte also tasted like milk. Interior wise, plenty of tables & seating. Great for a study spot with ample street parking. Overall, for the price, quality, and sizes, I unfortunately will not be returning.

Service was kind and knowledgeable. The seats inside are comfy and inviting. They have a whole patio area set up and extending into the parking lot, as well. Its a little bare bones, but perfectly serviceable. Music inside is maybe too loud for studying or work without earbuds, but ymmv. There is a small lot that they share with the Thai place next door, and there is sometimes also street parking.

Cute and quaint is the way I'd describe the vibes. With no more than 4 people allowed in the shop at once, there's almost always a line in front and seating is limited to a few out in the arcade courtyard. I usually like to take my drinks to go so I can grab a pain au chocolat at C.A.R down the street but sometimes I'll linger if a table opens up. They team up with different microbakeries on weekends to host popups, my fave being crumbs and flakes, so that keeps the pastry rotation interesting. My drink of choice now, having tried a few items off the menu, will forever be their gui hua (osmanthus) latte. No one can convince me otherwise. Everyone I know who has tried it, has loved it. While there are a ton of hyped coffee shops and cafes, this one is definitely not one of them.

What I've tried: -Plain croissant: Some of the best lamination I've ever seen. Large and ultra flakey. Great even 2 days after purchase. Buttery deliciousness. -Pain Au Chocolat: Done very well. Still very flakey and chocalate-y. Melts beautifully when toasted. -Kouign-Amann: Great execution. Crispy but not soggy or too tough from the sugar brulee exterior. Nice hit of finishing salt. Interior was still plush. Delicious. -Almond Croissant: Good but not as stellar as the other pastries. I did enjoy the crunch of the almond slivers and appreciated that the toppings didn't weigh down the pastry dough itself. -Chocolate Chip Cookie: Very good brown butter notes but I wouldn't mind the cookie to be a teeeny bit thicker. -Ricotta Pesto: Delicious. Pesto was pronounced and filling was creamy. Heated up very well and pastry dough maintained all the flakey layers despite the filling in the center. The shop and parking: Parking immediately outside of the shop is paid meter. Free parking is available if you walk about a block or two down behind the shop along the apartment units. It's a short 2-5 minute walk so I'd highly recommend doing that if you can. Just make note of the no parking signs in case there is street sweeping or any restrictions but I've done this several times now with no issues. The shop is relatively small but has a good amount of seating with maybe two tables outside. I've been at different times and only once has there been a line that has gone out the door. Still, it was a short wait (about 12-15 mins). The shop also sells merch like t-shirts and adorable mini tote bags. They also have unique chocolates from different countries of origin for sale. Prices of pastries are on the higher end but they are very high quality given the sourced ingredients and 3 day process. You can actually see them folding and extruding the croissant dough behind the glass if you come at the right time! They have seasonal offerings and an option to pre-order online as well. Overall: Amazing quality. Everything you would want and expect from laminated pastries. Will continue coming back!

It's mostly street parking, and this place always seems to be busy, so finding a spot can be a bit difficult. Because of that, it's not always the easiest place for a quick coffee pickup. Still, the coffee itself is great, and this is one of the places I'd happily come back to.
