Superba Snacks + Coffee

Superba Snacks + Coffee’s avocado toast is absolutely delightful—perfectly balanced and satisfying. And the freshly made madeleines? To die for! A must-visit for a quick, tasty treat.

EXCELLENT music, immensely friendly staff, quick service and food to die for. The loaded tots were borderline life changing. This is a great spot to meet up with friends or to bring your laptop and get some work done

I enjoyed how clean and welcoming the staff is. I ordered a matcha latte, vegetarian sandwich(to die for btw), tater tots and a bear claw. The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable and I can’t say a lot of coffee shops are like that anymore. They have a unique vibe to them, they are very into helping others and I love that vibe. They are on the expensive side, but I felt the food was all worth it.

This has been a happening spot for years, and it continues to deliver. I’ve mainly come for breakfast, but even a quick coffee and pastry stop is always lovely. The last time I came was for an espresso and delicious alfajor (Argentinian pastry). The vibe is always buzzing, with a colorful and well-lit space. The service staff is pretty much always chill. Finally, they have a pantry section with everything from coffee beans to kombucha, freshly made OJ and butter, and a lot more.

Really cute little place. I was meeting a friend for coffee. Music was fun atmosphere was nice. Notice that none of the tables were ever cleaned in an hour and a half we were there the trash is overflowing, and chairs were very sticky.

I found this restaurant right next to a business I work at. I saw the sign out front it read " have you had everyone's favorite breakfast burrito". I thought let's try it! I ordered the breakfast burrito. I asked what was on it and the guy showed me the menu. It says bacon, eggs, tots, cheese, avocado crema. When I got my burrito the cheese was on the outside. Nice touch! I took a bite only to find pico de Gallo and black beans inside. I thought I had the wrong burrito. I came to the pick up window to recheck the menu and my order. The lady explained that no you got the right burrito we just don't write the other ingredients on the menu. I thought why not it's just two more ingredients. I told her my situation and how I don't eat pico de Gallo in the morning because of heart burn what not. She told me that she would make another one for me without the salsa. I was happy and got my burrito and left. She was very understanding and helpful. When I come back I'll have to remember those mods. Or simply get something else. Or ask more questions. I just think it's best to write pico de Gallo and black beans on the menu so people like me won't have to think twice about what we're getting and or not. Thanks for the food. Also they have a clean restaurant and the bathrooms were fully stocked and clean as well. The restaurant does offer a wide variety of pastries, drinks, canned juices, fresh juices and candy. Give it a try if your in the area

The drinks are indeed Superb✨ and so is all of the food! I expected more coffee shop than restaurant, but they do both well. And aside from that, it's one of our go-to meeting spots with friends because the location is beautiful and upbeat. Highly recommend!

Great weekend brunch spot with you pups! It has a decent amount of indoor seating and outdoor seating and the overall layout of the restaurant is open concept so it feels very relaxing and airy. Staff were all very friendly and the food was seclusion. I got the salmon umami bowl and it was the perfect balance of grain, veggies and protein. We also got a loaf of their sourdough bread and it was perfect!

Wonderful spot for breakfast burritos. My go to's these days! Cold Fashioned is so so good.

I live in Altadena and had no idea this place existed. I ordered the breakfast burrito with the Spanish latte on Postmates and everything is SO DANG GOOD!!! I'll have to go in one of these days and try other things but 10/10 recommend

I love Superba! This is a great lunch spot if you're travelling up from the 110. There are a fair few seats both inside and outside, both areas of which are airy and feel open and nice. It felt like everything was clean and the aesthetic was simple and hip. I've always found that the staff are friendly and happy to chat. They will answer questions and recommend items on the menu. I have enjoyed food here on several occasions. It feels like somewhere you can get a healthy lunch which feels nourishing and isn't enormous. I enjoy that each option on the menu usually has a few ingredients which feel unique and give it a good flair. I would recommend all the salads, all of which I have tried.

Don't order asian items from a hipster spot. Match mojito is incorrectly listed as a cocktail. No matcha flavor. Asked for easy ice and got only ice. In this political climate, ICE ain't welcome. Tiniest $7 milkshake with a dash of black sesame essence. $18 sadness

My brother and I tried the breakfast burrito, but unfortunately it was extremely salty, and the salsas that came with it lacked flavor. We also ordered the matcha latte ... honestly, it had a strange, almost murky taste and smell that reminded us of pond water or even a pet turtle's tank. Neither of us felt great afterward, though we're not sure exactly what caused it. Giving two stars for the friendly and kind staff.

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.

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

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!

Customer service is always great just like the food! The eggs in sandwich are very delicious. The matcha milkshake is amazing. Must try!

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.

An awesome breakfast place. We always get our bread for BLTs and grilled cheese there too! Their Pain au levain Pullman is yummy.

A nice easy place to stop for coffee and lunch or a snack. The grilled cheese sandwich was delicious, as was the sea salt chocolate chip cookie. I had never been before and was pleased.

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. Food: I tried the veggie biscuit which was delicious and came with cheese and some type of aïoli sauce. I would order again! Under $10 it was filling and tasty 5/5 Service was fast and staff was nice.

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.

Been here before for a coffee date with a friend. Ample parking in the back. Lot of seating available even on a weekend. Seemed like a lot of people just come to pick up drinks and leave. *** Thanksgiving dinner review *** Decided to order prepared Thanksgiving dinner from Superba. Heard good things about it and since I've been here before I figured I give it a try. Ordered ham, some sides, and a pie. Come out to over $300. Pick up that day was easy. Checked in and got my food. Service was really nice and helped bring food to my car. Food came with instructions on how to heat it up. Reason for my low rating is that the food all tasted a bit sour and tangy. The ham, veggies, and mac&cheese just had some strange flavor to it and really wish I could figure out why. But I couldn't stomach it anymore. Honestly, only the bread was good. Someone else tried leftovers the next day and asked why potatoes tasted sour. We had a ton left over and even the pie was thrown out. First time I've ever thrown out most of the food from a place. Ton of other places in Pasadena have done better Thanksgiving dinners for about the same price.

Cute vibe. Has an early 2000s aesthetic with the eco/recycling theme. Got a breakfast burrito and some baked goods. Nice presentation. Tasty.

Did a morning walk and stopped in for late breakfast. The coffee was great, loved my cold brew. I got a breakfast burrito and I loved the fluffy egg inside, overall the burrito was good but nothing to write home about. I think the true star were the fresh Madeleines. They were warm, fluffy, tasty and true perfection. The ambiance is inviting and I love the natural light inside. Staff were great and like that it's pet friendly. Wonderful morning out.

Food - 4/5 I like coming here when I want to eat something healthier and pressed for time. The first time I came here when I looked at the word "snacks" on the menu I wasn't expecting a full portion of food. rotisserie chicken sandwich - 4/5 This was the first thing i'd ever tired and it was solid. I liked that it didn't feel like it was too much of any one ingredient and the flavors worked well together. al pastor crunch bowl - 4/5 This has to be my go to item off the menu. The corn nuts add a nice crunch to the salad, and it's one of the few ways I'll actually eat kale. I also love the dressing for this salad. tater tots - 4/5 Pretty hard to mess up tots. I appreciate they have them on the menu. caramel apple latte - 3/5 nothing special about it considering how unique it sounds off the menu. I was hoping for more apple taste and it just came off as just more sweet. prob wouldn't order again. latte - 4/5 Nothing special about it. when I need caffeine and i'm here this does the trick. it's not terrible, but its not amazing either. matcha - 4/5 Also nothing super special about it. when I need caffeine and don't want coffee this is a great alternative. Service - 3.75/5 I've had some hit and miss service here. The consistent thing I've noticed is that the staff is really attentive to addressing patrons and ready to take orders. The misses i've had when coming here is how slow some of the staff are to make simple things when the space isn't busy. I do appreciate that they note when ordering the salmon bowl, since it does take time to prepare you can be waiting upwards to 20min from time of ordering. Ambiance - 4/5 There's lots of seating here which is great and a few seats outside.There is a parking lot but it's tucked away to the left and behind the restaurant. you either need to enter from the alley way and /or when coming from Arroyo and turning into the driveway for Pitfire you pull to the left into the lot.

Cute cafe with a good amount of food options (both prepared and bakery items). I came in specifically for the breakfast burrito which was good! The breakfast burrito had eggs, bacon crispy hashbrowns, and cheddar crust on one side that I think set it apart from other breakfast burritos I've had. I also got a vegan banana bread, but that was kind of dry so I would skip that. It's a cute spot to meet up with friends for breakfast or lunch and I'm looking forward to trying more of their bowls. I'll definitely be back here for the breakfast burritos!

Great place awesome beer and tequila. Next door we have a nice thriftshop I recommend baja orange wit which is great

Love this neighborhood coffee shop in Pasadena! Spanish latte is my go-to drink. Coffee is good, strong, and not too sweet. Their food variety for breakfast is great- lots of fresh ingredient options on their menu starting from a delicious avocado toast that is tasteful and refreshing, breakfast burrito, and choice of grain with protein bowls. Their pastries are delicious as well- they often have seasonal favorites that you can't miss out on! Service has been great every time- everyone is friendly and professional. Ambiance is that of a nice neighborhood coffee shop with enough indoor seats and a few outdoor seating options. Music/noise level is not too loud. Will be back here again!

A cute little cafe that's bright and airy! I came here for a coffee and brunch with my friend. First off, there is a private lot with free parking. The lot is kind of small, but my friend and I were each able to snag parking spots during weekday brunch. When you go inside, your order and seat yourself. They'll call your order to pick up at the counter. We each got breakfast burritos and they were quite tasty with different salsas. If it wasn't for work, I'd have stayed longer to chill and soak in the sun and ambiance. I'll be keeping this place in mind for future visits!

I always order on postmates and the food here is consistently a 10/10. So yummy!!! Definitely get some tots while you are there.

I've ordered the tuna sandwich a handful of times because the ingredients are so fresh and flavorful, but the bread (baguette) is so hard to chew, it's almost inedible. I get that bread varies in texture, but this bread is like concrete. I feel like a Neanderthal biting into a fresh kill when I bite into it. If they were to swap that brick for something else, this sandwich would be A1.

Good food, easy parking, cute interior, VERY good service. I called them to place an order when my husband was driving by to pick up food on the way to friends after we had been evacuated and our friend was still protecting his house from the fire. They had the food waiting for a few extra cookies to help lift us up during the stress of those days. I can't remember the name of the manager that day but i will forever remember and be grateful for his kindness and helpfulness.

My friend and I made plans for a little coffee date and we decided to try this place. The space is smaller than I expected but at the time we arrived we didn't have any issues with parking or grabbing a table. A ton of huge windows, open air, and natural light. I saw a few people getting work done on their computers but the majority of people were there to hang out and have a bite. My friend ordered the salmon bowl and let me have a taste. It was pretty good and I really enjoyed the sweet potato. I had the cold fashioned and a morning bun. The cold fashioned was good. The morning bun was okay. Overall I would come back for a coffee and a chat. I personally wouldn't hunker down here to get work done. It can get pretty busy and loud.

Parking: Decent sized parking lot available in the back Ambience: Very chill vibes with plenty of natural light streaming through the windows. Moderate availability of seats and tables, but there is free WiFi! Service: Very friendly and welcoming :) Taste: Wanted to try their black sesame milkshake, but they were out of sesame that day, so got their matcha one instead. It came with whipped cream and colorful sprinkles, and tasted fairly good!

We stumbled upon this coffee shop while in the area and we definitely will not be back. The cashier had a bad attitude. He was unpleasant, rushed us, and made ordering uncomfortable. There was one worker who recommended a drink as it was our first time and she was kind, but they were the only kind worker. The worker calling out items was also rude and curt. We were going to look at the menu to order food but the service was so off putting and the dining area was not well kept/clean so we just left. The coffees that we did order were okay, but nothing to rave about.

Love the food here and decided to eat here last weekend instead of doing my usual takeout...oh and what a mistake that was! The gal at the register taking our order (she had bleached hair and was wearing Converse, possibly Latina) was so incredibly rude to us when we had questions about the menu. When our names were called to pickup our drinks at the counter they handed us the wrong one. The place is filthy. Crumbled up trash and residue on all the tables. Several tables had garbage underneath them that was sitting there for a while until someone decided to sweep. Patrons here bus their own tables after eating. How can we reasonably be expected to do that when the bussing station is overflowing with trays and dirty plates? It was not cleared out the entire 1.5 hours I was there. Maybe that's why we were fending off so many flies.

Ordered with door dash and made a mistake. The staff was amazing and so helpful in dealing with the situation! On top of great service the food was amazing. Can't recommend this place enough!

Have been eyeing this place for a long time, and finally made it. I've gotta say, it didn't disappoint. Came on a weekday for brunch, it was crowded. Loved that they have both outdoor and indoor seating, ambiance was chill and had a nice vibe! Order at the counter, friendly service, and food came out fast. We opted for a few things to try out, and all were pretty good. I especially enjoyed their Spanish coffee (both hot and iced were good), all the breakfast items tasted fresh (like farm to table). The highlight was the rice krispy peanut butter cookie, highly recommended. Will def be returning soon!

Lookin' for a place to wait for my fiance and I stumbled on this place. I feel like I've been here before... but I can't remember. I'm glad I came in though! Ambiance: laid back and cozy. This is a great place to study. Or go on a coffee date. Either way it's a great place to relax and have a lunch snack or some coffee. Parking: parking is sweet here because they have their own parking lot. Now it's not the biggest parking lot but it definitely serves the space well because it offers at least a designated space to park... Rather than the street and other places in Pasadena. If youre looking for a place that has free parking, this is your place! Seating: be mindful that this is relative a place where they can sit people at smaller tables. I wouldn't necessarily plan a birthday party here ( unless it's a small birthday coffee date) ... But there are tables inside available. Food: they have great options for drinks. But I will say the most unique thing is the homemade Madelines. Now I'm a fan of these and I'll admit that I am not a connoisseur of these cookies but these were definitely fluffy and moist. I usually like the ones from Costco despite it's high caloric count but this is definitely better. I recommend these with your drink of choice.

I came here to study, and it is a great study spot! There is free parking, plenty of seating, and great service! The pressed grilled cheese was soo good! They did not skip out on the cheese, and it was so crispy.

It is the best Avocado Toast in Los Angeles and I am not the only one who thinks so. Also for $2 you can't go wrong with their scrambled eggs

Stopped in for a quick bite before an event in Pasadena and had a great breakfast sandwich and vanilla latte. The location is a very casual but trendy look. You order at the counter and the service is friendly and fast. The quality of the food is great and prices aren't high because of that. Wasn't a fan of the radish on the sandwich but besides that it had an awesome combination of flavors that created this simple classic!

This place is always reliable on their pastries, savory food, and coffees. Parking is plentiful behind the cafe, and tables are open seating. Open patio area that's dog friendly. I always see a good mix of people who are just hanging out, on their laptops, as well as grab and go.

My fave go to for breakfast. Since they close early (around 4 pm) I usually go there early in the morning to grab their avocado toast. Their avocado toast is so good and you can custom the toast. If you don't eat spicy like me and opt out for their chili flakes. Their matcha latte is refreshing as well. I always get that,it is my go to drinks and to save time you can place an order online through their website, not recommend it using Uber Eats or third-party platform because if you order through their website, the price is going to be the same as you order it in person. I tried to work over there once, but since it's very close to big streets, the traffic noise was too loud for me so I don't recommend you if you work with a lot of meetings. The staff are all friendly and they're pretty fast on working on your orders. They have a small parking lot ad the back.

My boyfriend and I wanted to grab a quick brunch before our museum adventures in LA. He gave me a few options to pick from but I went with Superba since I read that there was a convenient parking lot in the back and positive feedback from my yelp friends reviews. So you order at the counter and seat yourself wherever there is an opening. They have a good amount of indoor and outdoor seating area. Since it was hot, we decided to sit inside, but honestly their AC wasn't that strong and I still felt pretty uncomfortable trying to eat the food quickly to leave. My boyfriend had their Breakfast Burrito ($9.50) and I had their Breakfast Sandwich ($9). We also got a side of the Smothered Tater Tots ($6) to share. The food did take a while to prepare, but it might be because they were busy. My boyfriend felt pretty indifferent about his breakfast burrito. I guess there were some black beans in there making it a bit soggy. My breakfast sandwich had scrambled eggs bacon and cheese... things I usually enjoy... except I'm not sure how it was so BLAND. Absolutely tasteless. It was a good size but I am so glad we got those smother tots so I can balance with something that has flavor. The smothered tots had bacon cheese and crema. The tots were nice and crunchy, but maybe a bit oily. The cheese got really hard even after we just got it. But at least the tots tasted good compared to everything else. We both agreed we weren't too interested in coming back. Between the food being mostly average and the AC not being strong enough for a hot day, I don't see all winning reason to give them anything above a 3 stars based on my experience.

Cookies were amazing. Great coffee as well. Staff was courteous. Would come back 10/10.

First time ordering from here and the breakfast burrito was delicious with fast delivery. Will definitely be a returning customer!!

Stopped here to have a quick meeting and get some coworking done. There's a parking lot in the back which makes is convenient and tables to facilitate dining in and working a little bit. We ordered the Smothered tots as something to munch on because we weren't 'that hungry' but we devoured these. Perfectly crispy tots. Cheese melted on top was regular cheddar but not a sauce consistency and then drizzled in a white sauce which I think was sour cream. Some bacon bits and green onions to top it off. I also ordered the black sesame milkshake which tasted like a regular milkshake. No sesame flavor to be tasted which was a bummer. Maybe the vanilla ice is too overpowering for whatever sesame flavor they are using.

So far so good. Breakfast burrito is delicious and packed with flavor. The cappuccino is solid and they have golden lattes.

Honestly pretty great V good cold brew Breakfast burrito is nice with a balanced ratio of ingredients. Much better than similar spots in the area, and everyone else works here seems nice

The regular drip coffee is a must! The coffee bean is flavorful! The downfall are the ones taking your order. When I ordered a latte -- it was waaay to sweet. You could barely taste the coffee. I gave this place multiple chances. Each time I ordered my drink -- they made me feel like taking my order was a burden. Mind you I'm getting my coffee before my shift in the hospital, I'm not requesting a full on conversation but just decency. One situation was when I asked if they agave syrup the person taking my order said, " no. we dont" and didn't even offer any other options other options - very cold and dry. Place has a large space -- looks good for studying!

Love this place. People who work here are always kind, super knowledgeable, chill, and while the menu of snacks is limited, everything has been delicious. Great pastries. Great coffee and other options when I'm not feeling like the caffeine. Comfortable, really open space and outdoor patio seal the deal. I always come here when I'm in the neighborhood.

Friendly staff, decent food, and solid prices. The food is pretty oily, which made it difficult to want to finish, but it was overall pretty tasty. The pastries tasted daily made, but are not top tier. They're a 6/10. The matcha late was ok, but fairly weak so I'll give that one a 5/10. The real selling point is the prices. The food is so inexpensive that it's worth going to for that alone.

Love this place. Great coffee and the food.... Yummy! Lots of parking too! Definitely coming back.

Dined in for brunch the Sunday morning of July 4th weekend around 11:30am. While there were quite a few diners, there were still an ample amount of 4 seater and 2 seater tables readily available and no order line. Ordering was swift, and the person ringing us up made some great recommendations for us first timers - the breakfast sandwich and the umami salmon bowl. We also orders a melon water and iced oat milk latte. The sandwich was simple yet effectively executed with nice fluffy eggs while the umami salmon bowl came incredibly well balanced between the greens, carbs, and protein. Overall the food was fantastic and the meals left our us feeling full without feeling too heavy to tackle on the rest of the day.

My niece and I have had breakfast here every other Saturday for like 6 months now. It's our first stop of our days together. She loved it there and they are always supportive of her independence streak as she tries to buy her own gummy bears on her way out. She also has autism so her occasional break downs are just taken in stride and her increasing ability to use her words are noticed and celebrated. Great place, tasty food.
