Coffee and Plants

Great find! I’m not a fan of any rose-lavender-flavored lattes but the barista did mention that their rose syrup is house made and doesn’t have the artificial flavoring that most shops have. I took her word and gave it a try! Loved it. I had it hot but I’m sure iced would have been just as great. I also had their cherry almond muffin! Not a combination i would have ever tried so thanks for the new flavoring!I think the vibes could have been better but working in the customer service field, I’m too biased. Overall a solid experience.

Truly this place came through where it counts: after enjoying the Rose Parade on Jan. 1st with a friend, we were having a difficult time finding a place to sit. We had JUST placed ourselves in two different wait lists at two different restaurants, so while we waited, we wandered through Colorado Ave, looking for a place with shade and somewhere to sit. This place absolutely came through. They are in such a nice location. There are seats both inside and outside and also, despite being out of almost everything, I had one the best cups of hot cocoa with oat milk I've ever tried. Immensely grateful for the great customer service, great drink and much-needed place to sit with shade. 10/10

My favorite coffee shop in Pasadena! I usually go for a regular latte, but I have also tried their charcoal latte which is delicious. I also love their food options since it’s hard to find cafés with so many vegan options that are also delicious. The atmosphere is to die for inside or outside the café is so cute. Would highly recommend!

This charming coffee shop boasts a delightful ambiance. I particularly enjoyed the atmosphere outside the café. Their signature 24k charcoal latte was a standout—unique and delicious. While the interior décor is pleasant, it shows signs of age. Nevertheless, the high-quality tableware, chairs, and tables more than make up for it. The prices are quite reasonable, too.

Very nice café on a side street in Pasadena. The service was super nice and friendly. If you order something to eat, you should bring some time with you, as it is prepared with love and care. Unfortunately we didn't have a fork and knife, but they were brought on request. The food was delicious and so was the coffee. The whole thing is completely vegan!

Now don’t get me wrong, I really love the idea of this place. Donating to local animal charities is awesome and amazing and I hope they continue helping the community in meaningful ways. However, I paid $9 for an iced dirty Chai. It was the wrong size, and watery as heck! Not to mention the little bits of oatmilk crust floating in my drink, super unappetizing. Their matcha was on par with Starbucks. But the food I ordered was gross I forced myself to eat it because I was running late. They really need to improve the quality of their menu. Otherwise I really can’t see myself spending money here. Otherwise the staff was super nice, and the atmosphere was gorgeous.

The place itself and the person making the drinks was all cool, just the drinks itself were not good. My boyfriend and I got two different drinks and both were tasted like water down and no flavor. Pretty disappointing.

I got the JustEgg tartine, chocolate croissant and lavender latte (pictured). It's a cute instagram-worthy place with good coffee, but the vegan food is not that good. The chocolate croissant was hard and not fluffy. Vegan croissants are difficult to find, and this one was disappointing. I don't remember much about the tartine. Come for the coffee and nice ambiance, not for the food.

It's a beautiful doorway frame and such a cute little spot to read a book but small in the interior. There is outdoor space but depending on the weather you might not be able to be there for long. Parking lots are around but you probably pay more than the time you spend here.

Situated in an alleyway off Colorado and next to IPIC theater this cozy coffee cafe features well....coffee and plants. They sell plants and feature them prominently in the decor. They have an array of beverages including teas, coffees, and lemonades. I tried the peach please and it was a fun and sweet beverage that I could drink all day. Their menu feature pastries and a menu of vegan friendly menu breakfast items with indoor and outdoor seating. A great place for a quick bite and worth stopping in to try their options. Super friendly service!

Located in a really cute spot of Old Pasadena. Parking: paid street parking $2.50/hr or paid lot $2.50/15 min but maxes out at $20 or $10. They have a small front area with seats or you can walk to the open space by the movie theater and enjoy your coffee there. Great mix of espresso and matcha offerings. The matcha was more on the bitter side when I went. Service was quick. The only issue was that I had to repeat my order about 3x and I think it came out wrong. I ordered a hot drink so it was hard to see if there was an extra shot of espresso but it didn't taste like it. Other than that, I'd go back and try a more specialty drink since they did have some unique options.

Came here today with my bestie and our fur babies on a Sunday Morning. Highly suggest coming in a Sunday. Street parking before 11am is free. No pay to park, 2 hour parking on Union Street. It's been a while since I last been here and it's just as amazing as I last remember! This time I came here to get my coffee fix, get my Pasadena Coffee Passport Stamped, and my best friend had yet to try this place out. Photo op worthy place along with plants to purchase as well! This time I ordered: - Iced Vanilla Latte with Oat-milk - Peach Please ( Lemonade) - Blueberry Muffin - Peperomia 'Ginny' Plant The drinks & food were delicious! The staff were very sweet! This place is dog friendly and had indoor/ outdoor seating :)

Most charming little cafe tucked in an alley way in Pasadena! Plenty of seating. Most of the plants are adoptable and this cafe sits next to a theater. Matcha Lavender gal, and wasn't disappointed!

I've come here twice. I think the first time my drink was fine but I can't recall. However the second time I came, I tried their Rose Bowl Latte. Definitely a strong floral flavor. Did not like it. A bit weird like it should be a tea instead or something. Staff said it was popular so maybe it's a hit for others. I would give four stars but I can't quite recall how I felt about the first drink I had here. Maybe I'll stick to regular vanilla lattes next time.

This is supposedly the Berry Energizer. But there in contrast to the advertised photo within the coffee shop are no fruits. No strawberries of any kind. When I pointed that out the barista apologized but then brought out a packet with I guess strawberry flavored powder ti put in. Perhaps it's in the fine print but even though tasty. It's not what was advertised. Also it was loaded with ice. Maybe it was just an off day. Still will come here but definitely need some clarification on the drink Hence the three stars

Coffee and Plants is a cute little coffee shop nestled in a little alley way in old town Pasadena. I came and tried the avocado toast. It was good but a little too sour for my liking. They have a few different options for savory foods and a variety of sweet treats and caffeinated beverages to choose from. Nice quiet place to study and/or get some work done.

If you love good lattes and an aesthetic vibe then you'll enjoy this spot! The interior is very cute with the flower and plant decor along with the pink and green tones. When it's not busy it's a calming place to read a good book or do some work, there's power outlets under the couch seating. The chai latte is very tasty, it had a nice strong flavor to it. My pup loves the pup cups too because they put two treats at the bottom lol. Definitely check this out if you're a coffee goer and looking for unique drinks.

Tucked away in the alley area of Old Pasadena, Coffee and Plants is a charming spot for a quality coffee break and perfect for those Instagrammable foodie moments. If you're using the Pasadena Coffee Passport, you're supposed to get 10% off a drink here, though to be honest, I'm not sure if the discount actually applied. My Dubai Chocolate Latte with oat milk still came out to $10. A bit pricey, but I genuinely enjoyed it. The drink had a nice balance of coffee, pistachio, and shredded coconut, and by the time I finished it, I was surprisingly full. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, and I noticed a few pastry options available too. Service was quick, the coffee tasted great, and the overall vibe is adorable. Definitely worth a visit.

Great service, great coffee, and the cutest vibes. Parking is a bit tricky but it's always worth it

We stopped here as we were in town and were so happy to find this cute coffee shop. Staff is super friendly and they have indoor and outdoor seating. We got vanilla lattes one iced and one hot super delicious and high quality we ordered the Savory Tomato, Mozzarella, Basil Flat Puff and chocolate croissant warmed up and enjoyed them so much for another of each to go!

Its pricey coffee, but appreciate that it's vegan friendly. Cute vibes, and very easy to walk to

Ambiance: it's a cozy and chic small coffee place located in a small alley in Pasadena, with cute decorations and green plants, they don't have a restroom onsite and you have to go to the one located in the corner of the courtyard Service: friendly staff, helpful and attentive, accommodated special request for mugs instead of cups Drink: simple and classic drink menu, vegan options non diary only, like oat milk and almond milk Blue Lavender Latte - **** refreshing taste, recommend Pink Matcha - *** overly sweet Price: decent quality and slightly overpriced, expect each drink costs about $7~$8

I recently visited coffee and plants again and had another good experience! I didn't have a card on me and the employee helped me out with paying cash. I brought a notebook for sketching and stayed for several hours. I felt very comfortable and welcomed there, not like they just were waiting for me to leave. I really enjoy the ambiance and aesthetic of the coffee shop. The presentation was lovely. I loved served me with really pretty dishes used. I really wanted a sweet croissant, but the only thing left was the pizza puff, which was delicious. I'm sure it was because I arrived as noon. They probably get taken up first thing in the morning. My only disappointment was the Rosebowl Latte. It was simply not my taste. It didn't taste like other rose drinks I've gotten before. My boyfriend tasted it and he didn't like it either. It's pretty but it doesn't taste good. The last drink I tried here was not my vibe either, it didn't taste like anything to me. So overall I would come for the vibes and the pastries, not great drinks. I will still be back and willing to try something else though.

Hit and miss service but at least they had consistent coffee. Most of the baristas that I saw in the morning were great and attentive but one of them seemed to give just good enough service. She was less attentive and one time we were waiting about 5 minutes for her to come to front and didn't say anything to us for taking awhile to attend to us. I don't expect catered attention, but a quick "sorry about the wait" is more than enough for a coffee shop. The coffee I had was good: regular cappuccino and latte between the few times I had it. Croissant and matcha muffin were great. The decor and merch were great and it was nice and quiet with some music playing in the morning. Decent but I'd probably try to find a different shop to be a regular at.

Aesthetically pleasing but I was pretty disappointed in my drink and food option. I got a rose bowl latte and the flavor was off and not good. It was too sweet and bitter at the same time. I also got a mushroom croissant. I asked for it warmed up and the inside was still cold. Overall the items I got were disappointing and seemed like a waste of money. I'm glad I didn't get one of the other food items that were each $17. That did not seem like a fair price for the items I saw.

The cynic in me thinks this store is just an influencers dream...it's trendy and cute and a great place to take a pic for the gram. As a coffee and oat milk connoisseur, it's a great place to have a drink. Walking down one of the tiny alleys in Old Town Pasadena, I came across a tiny shop, clad in ivy and teddy bears, with a sign that said coffee. Needing a late afternoon jolt, I popped my head in for a latte. The menu has the usual fare, americanos, lattes, etc. I ordered my usual, a vanilla latte and a drink from their no coffee menu, a blue vanilla latte. The bonus here is that it's a vegan cafe, so there's no regular milk here...oat milk doesn't come at a premium. Service was pretty quick, but I can see things slowing down when there's a line of people. Within a couple minutes, I had a small vanilla latte and a delightfully blue iced drink. The latte at first was kind of bitter, but a minute later, the flavors melded nicely and it was a surprisingly good drink. The coffee flavor was strong, but still managed to be highlighted by the lightness of the oat milk and hints of vanilla. The blue lavender latte was iced oat milk with a very blue lavender syrup. While many places get the ratio wrong and the drink can taste like soap, this was perfect. Did I pay 7 bucks for a cup of milk in ice? Yep, but it was so refreshing, I'd do it again. The latte was also 7 bucks, which seems like a steep price for a small cup of coffee...but I've paid that much for a much larger cup of coffee, from a soulless corporation, and it doesn't match the flavor and quality I got from Coffee & Plants. So is the store too cute for my tastes...yes, but the coffee tastes great and that's what really matters.

I ordered the strawberry croissant . The strawberry filling was the perfect amount. I can't wait to return for a chai latte and pastry.

Coffee and Plants is a vibrant coffee shop in the heart of Old Pasadena. They serve a variety of plant-based coffee drinks, including the Dubai chocolate and strawberry matcha. Their coffee and pastries are delicious and unique as well. The decor is beautiful which is perfect for a photo op. Ac, the owner, is kind and attentive which makes the whole experience even better.

One of my favorite coffee shops in Old Town Pasadena. This cafe is really cute with amazing floral decor, great for photos! There are some seats outside and about 5 small tables inside. The staff is super welcoming and friendly. My last visit I got an iced mocha with oat milk, which was delicious!

I really wanted to love this place since it's so close to my job, but I won't be returning. It says it opens at 7, yet when we arrived at 7:10 the doors were still closed--even the Amazon driver gave up waiting. Once inside, my drink took longer than usual to come out, and I realized later I was missing a muffin from my order. By then, the whole experience had already been disappointing, so I didn't bother going back. The shop itself is cute, but that's about it. Drinks were just okay. Went on Wednesday Sept 24th.

The cutest coffee shop! Their outdoor and indoor decor is adorable. They have plenty of coffee options. I tried their iced vanilla latte and my boyfriend tried a cold brew. Service is quick. There's parking across the street at a parking garage. There is seating inside and outside. It's quiet enough to do some homework or catch up on work , easy access to grab a coffee and enjoy downtown Pasadena. I definitely recommend if you're in the area and you're a coffee enthusiast. ** I do wish there were more plants to purchase, as they have limited plants to purchase.

We were in the area for an open house at an exotic animal veterinary clinic nearby (we've found ourselves with a rescue Sulcata tortoise) and took an opportunity to go to Coffee and Plants. They didn't disappoint and it was nice to be there earlier than last time we stopped in. We accidentally got the child a matcha because I don't know anything about matcha and it does have caffeine so now he's hooked on matcha jk. Everything was delicious!

Good coffee. Good, friendly service. Nice seating outside. I don't have anything negative to share about this spot. I do wish there was a bathroom though.

Absolutely, the cutest sweetest place to get coffee, tea or breakfast. If you weren't happy before you went in, you will be.!

Truly this place came through where it counts: after enjoying the Rose Parade on Jan. 1st with a friend, we were having a difficult time finding a place to sit. We had JUST placed ourselves in two different wait lists at two different restaurants, so while we waited, we wandered through Colorado Ave, looking for a place with shade and somewhere to sit.

Immensely grateful for the great customer service, great drink and much-needed place to sit with shade. 10/10

Walked in and didn't see any plants at all. I was confused and wondered if there was more to the place that I was missing. Turns out they were out of stock of nearly everything but one small plant on the shelf. I then looked for coffee beans, which they had only one lonely bag (from another coffee company) sitting out there. I was super disappointed at the experience and it felt like I had wasted my time going there.

Came here to try this place because it was up for voting in VegNews as a favorite vegan cafe. The inside is so cute with plants and a nice pastel decor theme. The drinks also look cute and they had some delicious looking pastries as well as JustEgg breakfast toasted/sandwich options. I tried a peach lemonade drink and vegan mushroom pastry. Both were delicious but a bit pricey for my taste especially for a simple lemonade. Seems like it has limited but available seating and I saw people chatting with friends and studying as well.

I came in right before my obscenely early facial appointment. I ordered a hot vanilla latte with oatmilk and it hit just the spot. The cafe is super cute and inviting. The woman at the counter was friendly enough (I don't blame her, it was 8am on a Saturday morning).I plan on making this my regular coffee spot whenever I'm in the area.

Great drinks and muffin but the up-charge for delivery is actually insane. They're charging upwards of $60 for (1) drink on Grubhub. If you go in person it's your regular overpriced lattes (~$7-$9) but their grubhub pricing strategy is definitely questionable..

I had lavender lattes at other store but the ones from this shop is the best ! Everything just taste so good from this shop !

Loved this quaint coffee shop. Went with a vegan friend who recommended the Avocado Tartine. It was delectable. Thick multi- grain toast topped with avocado, pickled red onions, sun-dried tomatoes, and capers. Also had a cappuccino with oatmilk, which was also very good. The decor and service were great. The cost was a little pricey but it's also downtown Pasadena, so you have to expect that. I'll be back next time I'm in town!

The decor of the coffee shop was incredibly inviting and charming, creating a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The cute touches added to the overall appeal, making it a delightful place to spend time. One unique aspect of this coffee shop is its complete plant-based approach, offering only almond or oat milk for those who prefer milk in their coffee or teas. I decided to try their vanilla iced latte with almond milk, and while it was good, I felt that it could have used less milk to bring out the coffee's flavor more. They don't have restrooms for their guests.

Quaint, cozy spot in the heart of Old Town Pasadena, this little coffee shop is a great place to catch up with some friends or to get some work done. It feels like a little plant oasis, and yes, it's real plants! Thankfully whenever I come here, I'm able to find inside seating where I can plug in my computer to a power outlet, but I can imagine seating being somewhat limited during warmer days. I've tried a few drinks here and I really liked their Rosebowl latte. It has a flowery taste, so for those who are not into floral, I wouldn't recommend this drink, but rather go with the 24k charcoal latte. Drinks here start at around $7, a little pricey for coffee, but that is Pasadena for ya ;) I haven't tried any of their foods, but some of their little pastries looked quite tasty. Will keep this one in my go-to coffee shop!

This cute little shop, sitting in a side alley, sells coffee and pastries. And plants! Plants all over the place! There are a handful of tables inside and many more outside. Everything here is plant-based which means only oat milk or almond milk for your latte. I ordered a vanilla latte and a slice of pumpkin pie. I appreciated the pie was served on a real plate and the latte in a cup & saucer rather than a to-go cup. I sat outside and enjoyed some nice weather and people-watching. The latte was good but I'm used to whole milk which I much prefer in a latte. The pie was fresh with good crust and a simple, unembellished flavor. Staff here were quite pleasant. Prices were definitely on the high side; honestly the highest I've ever paid for a latte. There is a huge parking structure across the street, also at a premium price. All in all it's got a great vibe and is a good spot to meet a friend or date.

Amazing service and great coffee/food! This is such a nice little cafe, and a perfect location to study with tons of cute tables & plants outside in Miller Alley. Shoutout to Eugenia the barista for really kind and super fast service!

Chill vibes, plenty of indoor seats and outdoors, the cafe also sells plants and other merchandise. They also offer free water cups.

LOVE THIS PLACE!!! vegan af and adorable. the plants are so cute and food & coffee are delicious

The shop was super cute and the sole team member that was there was really nice and efficient. I got one of their limited edition Dubai Chocolate drink and it was okay but didnt taste like the Dubai Chocolate. It was super pricey at $10! I had the Pasadena Passport so I got 10% off. Overall, I would give this shop another chance and I'll probably try one of their signature drinks instead.

It was a really cute place but the drinks were nasty. The matcha had no flavor at all and the lemonade tasted so artificial. The service was fine.

My iced latte with cold foam was the perfect amount of sweetness and Espresso! Shop is so cute - def coming back to try the rose bowl latte

Cute plant based cafe. Combining both of my loves: coffee and plants! This is tucked away in a courtyard in Pasadena. I ordered the lavender latte and it was the perfect accompaniment whilst I sit and people watch. Love that they use natural ingredients!

The 24K charcoal latte was unique and I enjoyed the flavor, a little gritty towards the end. The superfood latte contains maca, a root used for medicine. We also got an egg toast that was topped with toasted coconut and a delicious hot sauce. The matcha white chocolate muffin was really good and moist.

Tried out coffee and plants for the first time and it definitely had a lot of decor and hype with it! Drinks: -Chai latte: I think this is the reason for my review. I was really disappointed in the drink. First, the taste of it was interesting and it just fell flat in some ways. I did think the taste was kind of strong, but hmm it's not fair to them since I can't really describe it. What I can say though is that given their price, their small (one) sizes, I was surprised to find that my cup was a little less than 3/4 filled. I get with coffee, there's room for sugar/cream or with these lattes, room for whipped cream but usually it's not 1/4 of the cup for that so.. I'm not sure what happened there Seating: -we sat outside and it's a bit on a curve so some of the chairs were a little rickety. Not a big deal though as it's a cute alleyway! Overall: Won't be back to coffee and plants on my own though I don't mind coming with a pal and maybe trying out their food.

Favorite cafe. Beautiful shop, friendly staff, and delicious everything. Parking can be a challenge in the area, but it's a lovely spot to walk to if you live or park somewhere nearby!

The blue lavender latte is so delicious! The music they play is so good and adds to the cute vibe of the cafe. Friendly service just as my last visit. For food I got the mushroom provolone croissant and it was tasty. I prefer the tomato mozzarella puff but the croissant was also yummy.

Cutesy coffeeshop especially with their holiday-themed decorations up. Service was so friendly - there was a single barista working as a large number of people entered and he was so pleasant in taking care of all of our orders. I didn't realize initially that this shop was completely plant-based, so was happy to order my blue lavender latte with oat milk without an additional upcharge. The chocolate croissant was also quite good, personally liked it better than their chia loaf. Next time would like to sit in the shop and have a leisurely drink and snack, and try another of their specialty drinks.

Found this Super cute, clean, relaxing place with a good coffee and plants. The two girls today are super nice and friendly. The music is very good to listen to and not loud which is good. My favorite here is the refreshing Lavender Cold Latte. Plus, it's pet-friendly! My companion savored the exquisite chocolate croissant, utterly delighted by its exceptional quality. Furthermore, she expressed great satisfaction with the service provided.
