(Beware that the foam is made from dairy) So good. Highly recommend ordering off the seasonal menus. Really love the creativity of the menu. The servers are so helpful in explaining what the ingredients of the drinks and recommending pastries. We stayed to chat until closing time at 4pm! There are lots of tables and chairs, even comfy ones by the front window. Parking on the street in front or in the lot behind the shop.

I don't drink coffee much but when I do, I drink at penny coffee roasters. As well as having…read moreincredible coffee, which started me on my coffee journey, the staff are incredible, the managers Adam and David do an amazing job to make the place feel like a warm and caring environment. Employees there are very kind and seem to take an interest in everyone who walks in the door. Recently an incident occurred that I have nothing but respect for how the staff handled. A now former regular, who I will be keeping anonymous for obvious reasons, was banned from the store for openly racist remarks and verbally harassing staff. I was not personally present for it, but that is accurate to my experience with said person. They have repeatedly made racist and classist comments and have pretty heavy handedly push their ideological views to me. After banning said customer, they proceeded to threaten and harass the staff, from what I saw in regards to the banning, the manager Adam handled it with more respect and elegance than I believed necessary. Despite his tact, she took that as an opportunity to go on a tangent of excessive profanity and slurs. I think it's very telling about the type of people who work at Penny that they value maintaining a safe and welcoming environment even in the face of bullying and harassment. I've never felt more inclined to go to penny than I do now. Thank you guys for what you do and keep up the good work. You guys are rock stars fr!!

I've been a loyal customer of Pennys Coffee since they opened in Azusa. Over the years, I've spent…read morethousands of dollars here and have recommended the shop to many friends and others in the coffee community. Unfortunately, my experience with the shop changed because of repeated interactions with the store manager, Adam and the event that had just happened. I want the owners to be aware of concerns I have regarding the atmosphere created by management. On multiple occasions, I have heard Adam speak negatively about the owners and other baristas in front of customers. I have also experienced him bringing personal and political opinions into conversations while working, which I feel creates an uncomfortable/unprofessional environment. He works every Monday so I can't even sit on the only couch and drink my coffee in peace, he's always talking nonsense and forcing his personal opinions down my throat. He never stops talking, and if you try to share your opinion, he talks right over you. He has a veryyy hard time accepting viewpoints that differ from his own. He's honestly on some sort of power trip. The most concerning incident occurred recently when Adam yelled in my face while inside the coffee shop!! Then the other barista, David got involved with his encouragement during this interaction. They surrounded me and were trying to intimidate me together and at that time there were no other customers in the store, and when I tried to speak to them to tell them to stop yelling at me- they went at me harder to the point I had to literally run out of the shop bc I didn't feel safe there. It's the first time I have ever had two men corner me and yell at me- it was honestly traumatizing. After leaving, I informed David that I would never be returning. I believed that would be the end of the situation. However, David provided Adam with my personal phone number without my permission, and Adam contacted me by text after I had already left the store in an effort to intimidate me further. During that exchange, Adam also accused me of being racist. I found it completely inappropriate that my personal information was shared without my consent so that a workplace conflict could continue outside of the store. I also want to address an issue with David. Throughout my visits, you have repeatedly attempted to hug me or touch me when I came into the shop. Regardless of your intentions, this made me uncomfortable. Customers should not be touched without their consent. I also work in the business of customer service, and I understand the importance of professionalism. I would never speak negatively about my employer to customers, push personal or political views on people supporting my business, yell at a customer, or use a customer's personal information to continue a confrontation after they leave. It's disappointing because I did like this coffee shop and wanted to continue supporting it. However, my experiences with Adam and David traumatized me. I hope the owners take these concerns seriously and address them so other customers do not have similar experiences.

For me I ordered the Horchata Frappe, the Cinnamon Bun, and the Churro Cheesecake. The Horchata Frappe was quite sweet. The Cinnamon Bun was a little hard to chew. But the Churro Cheesecake was good. Took a little long to get my foods and drink. They were busy. Ambiance: 5/5 Service: 4/5 Food: 4/5

We were a little confused on where the place was. We parked on the main street and had to walk…read morearound the lemon zest building to find it. There's limited free street parking and there's a free parking garage not too far. It's a small place that's definitely to go only. There wasn't any food on display so I'm assuming they don't sell food. I originally ordered a strawberry matcha but was informed they were out of matcha and wouldn't be getting any for another week. I was very disappointed to hear thay since that was the main drink I wanted to try. I ended up getting the cookie butter latte and it's so good! The espresso balances well with the sweetness of the cookie butter and it might be the best cookie butter latte I've tried. My friend got the hot mocha and I tried it and it was also really good! It tasted like the espresso melted an actual piece of chocolate. I usually don't like mocha drinks so this was a pleasant surprise. I will definitely return for the latte and to try the matcha!

I had been interested in making a visit to Kristos when I saw it on my social media feed, so we…read morestopped by over the weekend to grab a quick coffee before being out and about. Kristos is behind Lemon Zest, so it's in your best interest to turn onto Sixth Street and park in the lot there. The shop is very small, but clean. Service was good. We ordered the iced dulce de latte, iced baklava latte, and kids' hot chocolate. The baklava latte was good, but nothing crazy. The kids' hot chocolate my kid finished it, which doesn't happen often. Unfortunately the iced dulce de latte wasn't good, it had a very thick layer of dulce de leche that was difficult to stir and the mixture wasn't enjoyable. I would probably come back again to try something else on their menu, but I wouldn't go out of my way to do so.

Each day has some sort of activity (such as comedy night, trivia, etc.) There is a very small private parking lot just behind the building. There is also street parking that you must adhere to depending on the day. There are tables outside of the store and some seats inside. It has air conditioning and it was very cold the day that I visited. I've tried their churros and they were extremely fresh and soft. I love their variety of dipping sauces, but I wanted to try it without any of them. They have some aqua frescas there besides coffee, but I opted for their strawberry lemonade because I don't drink coffee. The only part about sitting outside is that there is no trashcan to throw your trash. I could have left it on the table, but I didn't like to leave trash on the table(s) so I walked back inside to throw my trash away.

Inside was refreshingly cool and mellow, not loud. Two groups of 4 people were enjoying their fare while having lively conversation. Movie poster decor on the walls and film themed menus add to the charm of this shared space: coffee shop and community work space (a separate room with tabletop computers and desks). I noticed the line was continuously about 6-8 people long, and the staff were not fazed at all, consistently friendly and helpful. I asked for a recommendation. They said the blue velvet was popular, and since I love matcha lattes, I decided to try it. Five minutes later and a beautifully layered subtly sweet drink was in my hand and I was comfortably seated in the corner on an upholstered low chair. A very hospitable, delicious experience! If I lived closer, I'd come here regularly for sure. Highly recommend!

We were able to sit at the bar and get up close and personal to the magic of the barista. The servings of potatoes are shareable. The coffees, excellent. And the food, wow. The photos speak for themselves. The only reason I knock a star is because they were understaffed when we went. The wait was long and the turn around to clean the tables took a minute. I hope that they hired more, as the person in the back did mention they are in the process. There was only one Barista and one runner at the time. But they did kick ass. I would totally come back again for the music and food vibes.
