Rosebud Coffee

Had a cortado and the veggie breakfast burrito, and both were great! Love that there’s lots of parking and that the space is so big. Only came for the coffee side of things, not the bar portion of the space, but I would happily come back!

Rosebud Coffee has a lot going for it. The decor is fantastic, with plenty of plants and cool merchandise. There are lots of tables to sit at, both inside and on the outside patio. A neat feature is the separate brewery inside, complete with an alcoholic bar. Plus, there's a huge parking lot behind the shop, which is super convenient. Most importantly, my latte with oat milk was delicious. However, there are a few things I disliked. Although they have WiFi, they turn it off on weekends to encourage conversation between guests. While I enjoyed my visit without my laptop, I would have liked the option to bring it on a weekend if I wanted to step out of the house. They also place little boards on specific tables indicating that they are laptop-free zones, which feels a bit intrusive. The staff at the counter was friendly and great, but the rest of the staff didn't seem to be taking their shifts seriously. You have to stand very close to the order area to hear your name called because most of the staff just call names casually, except for one gentleman who actually yelled out names. The rest were chatting amongst themselves, with nothing to do, which was a bit odd. I want to like this place and maybe it was just an off day. I'll try coming back on a weekday and hope to update my review with more stars because I'm new to the area and looking for a regular coffee spot.

The Golden Latte was to die for and the strawberry desert cake thing my son got was tip tier as-well. I love local coffee shops and this one doubles as a brewery after the coffee shop closes. I also love that they hire and train the youth for jobs. Just a real stand up place that hits all marks. Whenever I come to town to see the dodgers play I will drink coffee here and nowhere else. Epic drinks and eats.

Great coffee and great food. I come here about once a month to get coffee beans, and I usually get food while I'm here, I'm always impressed really like this place. Not a chain, I think it's one of a kind, and it totally has its own unique feel, must experience it to fully appreciate it. Highly recommend.

I was in the Pasadena area and found this spot nearby. A solid spot to get a great cup of coffee. I ordered their latte with almond milk and it was delicious. Solid flavor and perfect temperature. This spot is a pretty big space for coffee. I’d definitely come back here again and try their other menu items.

The atmosphere is very chill. It is a great place to go if you want to chat with your friends and family in a peaceful environment. I love the idea of encouraging having no wifi on weekends for encouraging socializing with your friends and family while enjoying the drink and food. The coffee are pretty with nice latte art, taste great for a non constant coffee drinker, and the pastries taste great and warm. I love the chocolate croissant 🥐 and it is a good place to go for a weekend morning or tea time.

A great place to meet, hang out with your friends and catch up on life. They have spacious indoor sitting and out door patio for big group meetings. Rosebud serves great coffees and teas. The owner Dan told me that he trains each barista to differentiate each types of coffee by smell. This results in fantastic coffee in each cup. Not only coffee and teas are good here, the pastries are mesmerizing too. I loved their almond croissant where they added chocolate in the almond paste fillings resulting creamy and tasty croissant. They have a few of pastries on display which I don’t recognize. I guess they invented their own. Besides coffee and pastries, Rosebud also has a microbrewery on site. But no beers served in the morning. So I didn’t have a chance to taste their beer. We shall come back in an after to taste their beer. They do have plenty of parking in the back and on the street. It’s ideal for big group gathering.

This was such a cute little spot! They have plenty of seating. A variety of drinks it seem like it was a popular place. They have trivia nights on Tuesdays and on the weekends they don’t provide Wi-Fi because they want you to sit and socialize. What a great concept ! Just ordered a flat white . It was good but not great ! The espresso is a bit too strong but if you like strong coffee, then I recommended I would come back to try something else!

Great hospitality! We tried the matcha donut, highly recommend. Oh and it's gluten free A great place to study and perfect for a morning date in town. Very spacious, not too cluttered.

Great coffee, again! I appreciated the owner's response and I was happy to try them again but, the service provided was, well; weak! My wife and I came in and ordered two iced lattes to go and then sat down and waited. The guy that took our order was fine, nothing to write home about but no complaints with him. It was taking awhile, as no one else ordered after us. So I thought it odd it took so long as there were 3 or 4 workers back there. After about 15min I got up to check and alas, there are our two iced coffees sitting on the counter. We sat at the front of the store so we could not see when they placed them there. No one called my name, no one said two iced lattes ready. Nothing. I mean this is the second time that the employees completely hacked our experience. I will go back as their hours go later than most others and the coffee is good. But I recommend the owner vet his employees much more thoroughly! 3rd time is a charm?? I hope.

Cool ambiance. The music is a bit loud for studying or working, but if you're here to chill i think it's a cool vibe. I got the matcha with whole milk + syrup and cold brew coffee. The cold brew and matcha were both really watered down. The matcha latte just tasted like milk honestly. We ended up throwing out both our drinks without finishing them. I might come by another time to try out their other items, but so far it was a bit disappointing. The bar side looked pretty cool though, might stop by for trivia night to scope out the vibe. Service was great!

This coffee shop is full of Pasadena pride! I love the decorative design and vibe of the cafe. It's definitely a place you can chill at, do homework, etc. They have many different types of pastries and burritos as well! I tried the matcha donut and it was really good, very soft. The latte was made to perfection. And they share the space with a brewery?! Cool! I'll have to come back and try that out at night. Lots of parking in the back and the service was friendly and fast! We love to see it

Limited areas with outlets, plenty of seating, free parking in the back (15min curbside pick up), free wifi. Overall still pretty great place to wifi/study/bring laptop to work. It's a but loud for zoom mtgs you have to speak at. Outlets for plugs, some areas include extension/surger protector (so far what I noticed in a glance): - Front door wall seating area (small tables), - 1 Middle seating table connected to Wild Parrot brewery - Orange bench wall area (Wild Parrot space), - Bar top table along the same wall as the orange benches (Wild Parrot space). After 3pm, the orange benches (Wild Parrot seating area) is off limits to Rosebud customers unless you're also a Wild Parrot customer. Wild Parrot is the brewery located inside this building with Rosebud Coffee, and opens at 3pm. Ona weekday late morning, there's a mix of lapbook, book, and conversationalist (2ppl). No large groups more than 2.

Very nice energized atmosphere. Yes it's laid back but with a warm welcoming social oriented vibe. This is the kind of place you'd expect on the beach and having some coffee or drinks with friends Coffee was actually well balanced and not bitter. I would highly highly recommend this place. They also also have a cool bar area in the center offering some unique bites and drinks.

Coffee and burrito were both fine, but it's for a good cause. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, both out front and a patio area in the back. Friendly service!

First stop on our Pasadena Coffee Passport booklet. Ordered the hot Rose latte and hot Rose Chai latte Both very delicious but on the lighter side. Nice little spot for a group chat. We even played with a board game. Great coffee joint for a quick stop or group project. Plentiful parking and their back lot. Very attentive staff and quick service.

This place has somehow become my favorite spot for coffee. I love their rosebud salted mocha. Nothing super special about their drinks, just exceptionally well made. Their breakfast burritos are nice as well, the sauce I think is ***chef's kiss***. I have yet to try their pastries, but maybe next time. Parking lot is usually clutch for a spot, it's free, but I have had a time where it was full and I just parked on the street, wasn't a big deal (no meters). The place shares a room with a brewery, but they're open during opposing hours so no interference; I mentioned it just so you don't think you're in the wrong place.

Great ambiance and friendly service. The latte was spot on--perfectly extra hot, just as I requested. The Spicy Bird sandwich, however, was a letdown. It lacked the spice promised in its name and tasted a bit bland overall. Maybe it's just my palate, but there was an ingredient with an off-putting smell that didn't sit well with me either. I was sad to have sacrificed my carb count to try something new. Still yet, I look forward to returning for their coffee and trying out their pastries.

This place is highly recommended by one of my foodie friends. It's her favorite place to hang and to relax herself all the time. As soon as I walk in, the spacious and cozy environment totally amazes me. I spent time to walk around and give myself a quick tour before I place my order. People are very nice and friendly. Felt so welcomed here. Lavender latte is super refreshing and the fragrance of lavender is long lasting in my mouth for the rest of my afternoon. I slowly sip on my coffee and stay here till they close. A very remarkable first-timer experience.

Rosebud Coffee was the spot I came to on a Saturday morning to get some work done. I visited the store at around 9:30 am and knew it was going to be busy. They have free parking in the lot, but it was nearly full by that time. After heading inside, I needed to wait a bit before I could order. I ordered a lavender latte and only waited a few minutes before it was ready. It was just okay, nothing amazing. As I searched for an opened table, I saw there were a few options inside left. Fortunately, I was able to grab the table with an outlet. Despite getting an outlet, I soon discovered that they do not provide the WiFi on the weekend. At that point, I needed to resort to my hotspot, because I was using a laptop for work. In terms of noise level, this place was very loud. There were consistently a lot of other customers, but it's also a very social spot. Note: American Express is accepted.

Great coffee spot to get work done! Ample seating options from benches, individual tables to high tops. Free WiFi on weekdays! Didn't realize this but they share the space with Wild Parrot Brewing. Seems like when one shop closes, the other opens. The Rosebud Chai was delish! All the chai flavors with a hint of salt. The cortado was okay, too. I'd come back here to get work done.

Worst. Macchiato. Ever. It was so sour it made lemons taste sweet. Completely disgusting.

This cafe is really cute, i love the ambiance and love that they have a brewery. The only reason that I give this place a 3 star is because I thought the coffee was terrible. I got thier cold brew and it was sour and watered down. My friend got the americano and it was really weak. Maybe I'll come back for the food and beer once i start drinking again, but definitely would want to come to try the food and beer.

This has to be my favorite coffee spot in all of Pasadena. The space is shared with Wild Parrot and they split the operating hours. What impressed me most is the outreach that this cafe does with the community. I will keep coming back again and again. The staff is always kind and the breakfast burrito is always a hit! Their latte is good but you can't go wrong with the drip either.

I love this spot! Part coffee shop, part brewery. What more could you want? I love the Colorado breakfast sandwich - it feels different than your average breakfast sandwich because of the Canadian bacon. I always get a cold brew or lavender latte - both solid Options. I love that they employ foster youth and support the community. Great spot in Pasadena :)

You know...I wasn't sure how to start a review for a place I had high hopes for. Went to Huntington Library and needed a drink for the long drive home. Parking: at 1 pm parked around the corner Ordered: vanilla late and matcha with oatmilk. Cost: $13 Staff: professional Conclusion: drinks were okay... I drove for over 1.5 hours and I still couldn't finish 1/4 of my drink. Was not good at all. Ended up throwing it away when I got home. Would I try this place again- maybe, but it's definitely not in my"must try again" list.

Tied for my favorite coffee place in Pasadena. The vanilla latte is always consistent and the service is always great (did not realize they support the youth in the community-- amazing!) I have also tried the breakfast sandwich and breakfast burrito, both reasonably priced and delicious. It can get a little crowded sometimes but the inside is clean and well-kept, and there is both seating on the inside and the outside as well. Don't forget they also have a parking lot in the back, which is so convenient. And be sure to enter your phone # at the counter every time you visit to rack up some points. I can't wait to go back!

Stopped in for an iced tea and was happy to see they had so many options! Plus the "feel good" factor helping support foster kids is priceless! Glad we found this place. We'll be back!

Nice neighborhood coffee bar part of the Wild Parrot Brewing complex. Coffee was hot, tasted good and served quickly. Large seating area inside and outdoor area in rear parking lot.

My favorite coffee shop in Pasadena. smoothest beans they use. Whatever it is, its magnificent. Wish they carried Soy milk though because Oatmilk is terrible for you.

Came by with a friend and Rosebud was bumpin! Ambiance- -a very busy but bustling vibe. You have lunch table /bar type esque setups, tall tables, normal tables, bigger group seating, smaller ones as well. It's a hybrid coffee shop in the day and brewery/bar (I think) at night. I saw previous reviews about staff giving out passive aggressive notes asking you to leave when the brewery/bar was about to open but I actually found it find. It's similar to lights subtly being flickered/off or when last calls are told. It's just that it was the first time for sure. Service- It was normal I guess? Felt very matter of fact, which is fine for me. I don't know what type of day they might be having. Drink- Spicy Chai Latte: I loooveee chai!! A solid drink, it's definitely on the smaller side like a lot of cafes which is just how things are headed I guess. but was delicious! I don't know if I'd need to come back to Rosebud especially with the time differences but I liked the laid back feels and would be interested to try the brewery/bar next time as well. Definitely willing to come back when in the area or with pals!

This is a cute coffee spot that is inside the Wild Parrot Brewery. It took us a little bit to find it since the address is technically on the side street, but with a little exploration, we finally found it. It is definitely popular since it was full on a Saturday morning (mid-morning) and there was a line to order. Kudos to Rosebud for having alternative "milks" (oat, soy, etc.). There is a nice selection of pastries, but nothing gluten-free so we weren't able to try anything. Our coffee drinks (lattes and mochas), but nothing to make a special trip for. They do not provide wifi on the weekends and have "no laptops" on several of their tables. Neither of these were an issue for us since we were simply grabbing coffees for the road, but could be a game changer for others.

Love their mission to support and train youth! Vanilla latte was good and the space was lively without making it difficult to do work. Baristas were very nice and helpful. There was plenty of seating inside and most people there were doing work when I came on a weekday morning. Parking was very easy in the lot in the back. I'd definitely come back to Rosebud!

Very cool place to hang out, eat, or chill. Nice staff! I liked the environment there.

Good food, great service, nice Ambiance. Easy to find plenty of parking. I would go back everything im in the Pasadena area.

I may be entering my coffee shop era and this is the perfect place to add to the list if you're in a similar boat. This place is amazing! The atmosphere, the space, the staff, the wifi; it's all great. My first time walking in, it was pretty decently packed. But there were still plenty of seats. I've been back quite a few times since to get some work done. I love that there is usually plenty of space and seating options. The drinks and food are pretty good. The options are pretty simple & standard. I usually get an iced matcha or iced mocha and some pastry or toast (depending on the morning). I do like that they are eco-conscious as they use glassware for in-person drinks which is great. It's perfect for me as I can get some pretty solid work done. It's also a great place to have a 1:1 chat with someone. Plus, they have their own parking lot, with plenty of space, which is a huge plus, especially in Pasadena. It turns into a brewery in the afternoon (around 3pm-4pm). But if you're a mid-morning person looking for a casual space to get work done like me, this is a great spot!

I have been going to this tanning place for years and right next to it is this coffee place/brewery. Today was the first time i went inside and it was such a nice and pleasant place to visit. Since it is also a brewery, you would see the huge tanks for brewing beer as the same time which is call Wild Parrot. But it was a bit early for beer at 10:30 for me (kidding, they dont open beer section till 3pm) Had a cold brew and a breakfast burrito. I am not a coffee connoisseur or food critic but everything tasted good. They have very simple items for breakfast and pastry and a good selection for coffee. The thing i love about this place is the ambience, the people who works there. Very cool neighborhood vibe. I'd rather spend my money here than another Starbucks. Support local business, it is a very nice place to have your coffee and do some work on your laptop. (its s big place and lots of seats available, but go early as they fill up by noon).

Rosebud Coffee is the right amount of casual, hipster, and down-to-earth for us! We enjoy the vibe and the coffee here. The staff is always nice and pleasant to talk to and we like to sit in the parking lot space when it's not too hot. It's always a nice experience to stop by Rosebud when in Pasadena :)

My fave coffee spot in Pasadena. There are always seats, and plenty of outlets for the low battery folks. Their matcha is solid, but nothing life changing. However, what's awesome is that they employ youth transitioning out of the foster system and trains them with skills. I'd much rather support that even if the food/drink isn't mindblowing. Come here in the evening/night for Wild Parrot Brewery! I remember talking to the owner once and his goal was to maximise this space for the community, from morning till night. So yes, support Rosebud and this space!!!

Been here a few times to study and it is perfect ambience for working. You'll see a lot of people working here from morning until closing so it is a busy cafe. I mostly get their mocha lattes and their recent salted rose mocha is amazing. Also tried their breakfast burrito which is pretty good Free Parking in the back and street parking in front. They share the building with a brewery that opens at 3pm

I first discovered this place pre-pandemic because my colleague and I needed somewhere to meet and work. It used to not get so crowded, but I think the word got out. Great place to sit and chill or work. But last time I was there, it was packed. Also, easy parking (own parking lot, and street parking seems pretty easy), and a HUGE space.

:: Drink :: I ordered the Iced Vanilla Latte and it was good, not too sweet which I like. :: Service :: Customer service was good, the gentleman that took my order was nice. I guess I haven't been here in a while, I didn't know they expanded and now have a brewery in the same spot. :: Parking :: There's a parking lot in the back and there's street parking in front of the shop. There is an outdoor seating area in the back as well. :: Restroom :: Yes, they have a restroom.

It's a wonderful place great food and the staff are super special. If only we could get rid of the loud country music. Excuse me, but this is not Dallas. No one wants that with their coffee.

spacious and clean environment parking great quality and variety of pastries and coffee friendly barista (especially Roy, he is knowledgeable in coffee ) Would highly recommend Rosebud for people who need a spot to chill and relax. I appreciate their heart for helping transitional-age youth as they are looking for a place to work and skills training.

Such a cool coffee shop! Def work a visit. There's plenty of parking in their back lot and additional seating. But there's so many benches inside you definitely won't get a spot to sip on coffee and get some work done here. The inside is cool they also share the space with another brewery business opened later in the day.

I came to Rosebud Coffee today and it is one of my new favorite coffee spots. The inside is SO CUTE and there are a lot of places to sit - but it can get a bit crowded. It was such a good place for me to work on my homework. Get the vanilla latte when you come here, you won't be disappointed. Also, as I was leaving I saw they have an outside patio! It was raining today, but I can definitely see it being a great lounge spot when it's sunny. Overall, amazing! Will definitely be comings back here soon.

The first time I came here was a few months ago when I happened to be in the Pasadena area and was in need of coffee. This was the nearest coffee shop where I was at, so I decided to give it a shot. I had a vanilla latte and strawberry almond croissant. The vanilla latte was not that good. It tasted water down to me. However, the strawberry almond croissant was the best I've ever had and I am an almond croissant connoisseur so I've eaten many almond croissants in my life. The croissant was crispy outside, soft inside and very flaky. The almond paste inside was mixed with strawberry jam and was so delicious. It is expensive though at $7.75 each, but the size is pretty big. I've been back a few times and I always get the strawberry almond croissant. The ambiance reminds me of a mini public market place since the space is shared with another business that I believe serves alcohol. The place can get busy. Everytime I come here, there are always a lot of people occupying the tables.

This was second visit in a long time- o had their mocha rose latte and it was delightful. Their pastry selection was good too. I hand strawberry shortcake donut. Plenty of space to chill and hangout but depending when you come the other businesses might be open making it more crowded. Best to just grab and go IMO!

Customer Service is luck luster but the coffee is great and served fast but the food took quite a while. But the melt sandwich is delicious. Price is fair but tip options starts at 18 percent. Ambiance is chill and cool to hang in. It's a place you could always go to specially if you are a local.

Cute little spot with lots of free parking in the back! Pretty rare in Pasadena. Inside it shares space with a brewery (that opens at night after the coffee shop closes) which is why there was a lot of seating. Still crowded for a rainy day on a Tuesday during a weekday. There's outlets for seating along the walls, but not as many as you might think, so plan accordingly! The hojicha latte was great, not too sweet and you can taste the roasted tea flavor. I also enjoyed the ricotta and fig jam toast. I came here for a drawing date with a friend and I would come back to do the same again!

Welcoming, cool calm environment, delicious coffee and snacks and electrical outlets!

This place has nice atmosphere & outdoor seats in the back parking lot. It's especially busy on the weekends. Great place to hang or "study" They don't stock much pastry. If you come in the afternoon, it's probably all gone. Even at 11.30, there was only a few left. We got kimchi n bacon croissant that's only available on weekends (the spinach n cheese I hear is popular too). It's pricey and the spam doesn't taste much like spam. The coconut raisin bread is a classic - safe choice if you like sweets and coconut. The drinks are ok. Coffee is good. Tea is unsweetened by default btw. They also have brewery and food like tacos inside.

Great vibes. Good coffee. My chai latte had a real spice and kick to it. Big open space and friendly staff. Parking lot in the back.

Super super slow to get ur coffee - feels chaotic / I don't get why it takes so long to pour coffee Never coming here again - 5 people behind the counter messy and slow and the coffee is bad ? lol

Rosebud Coffee doesn't stand out from the busy street on Pasadena, but its honorable mission and affordable coffee make it a place to visit. Rosebud employs early career individuals from underserved communities through serving affordable, tasty coffee. I have ordered the iced latte and oat latte here before. The regular version was a delight, but the oat version was a bit on the watery side. Other than drinks, all staff members are friendly and a great addition to the calm atmosphere. It shares a location with Wild Parrot, a brewery, but even during hours where both are open at the same time, there is a seamless compatibility. Rosebud has quick with wifi and service - could not ask for more for a short afternoon work environment / break.

One sip of my latte was all it took to love Rosebud. Reading about their cause and story further sealed the deal for me. I appreciated that Rosebud doesn't charge extra for milk alternatives, unlike many other cafes. My honey latte w/ oat milk was beautifully poured. It's clear that the employees are dedicated to the craft. My latte art stayed intact for a long while after that first sip and I savored every last drop. Since I hadn't eaten all morning, I also opted for the Colorado Breakfast sandwich and wow, what a sleeper. It didn't look like much, but it was probably the best English muffin breakfast sandwich that I've ever had. I loved that the English muffin was buttered and toasted. From now on, every English muffin I consume must be buttered and toasted the way Rosebud does it. The Canadian bacon was inexplicably fragrant. I don't know what they did to it, but it tasted more savory than the Canadian bacon of my past. Lastly, I so appreciate that they use real, whole eggs! You can tell because there is a clear distinction between the egg white and yolk (instead of it all being one homogenous slab). Other pros: plenty of parking in the adjacent lot, restrooms, outlets for working and lots of seating. I'd highly recommend Rosebud to any coffee aficionado looking for a great spot to start their morning.

I really liked this spot! I love how they turn off the wifi on the weekends and the vibe was very communal and warm. I got this rose latte and a plain croissant and both were delicious. All the staff was really sweet too. I would definitely go back when I'm in the area!
